A bit more on this from the eqsongs.com in Feb 2001:

Quote:

Some NPCs are highly resistant to charm (guards in particular).

And from the eqbards list in April 2001:

Quote:

You can charm almost any NPC, however, guards are resistant to charm. I've
never gotten charm to stick on them, and I believe you aren't supposed to
be able to.

Some pretty good evidence that the dark elf guards in Nek were charm immune (Oct 1999):

Quote:

I've tried charming the greenest of green Dark Elf guards. I could NEVER get it to stick. And I charm orange-con stuff all the time. (high yellow / low red =).

Up thread someone mentions charming guards, but never says which ones or where. So that's unknown. Clearly some guards were charmable though.
