Hello, I'm trying to make a magic item for a non-spellcaster that has charges of a homebrew spell that is similar to lightning bolt. I'd like for the spell save DC to be based on the characters charisma score, but I can't seem to find a way to do that. If I put in the snippet code it just says it isn't a valid number. I'd also like for the damage modifier to be included as the charisma modifier for the spell, but I can't find a way to do that either.'
Thank you

What you want is impossible. If it is for a noncaster it will always only use their PB, and if it is for a caster it will always use their innate spellcasting ability. The best you can do is to give it a fixed DC.
