MOD OF THE BOARD!!!!
WRTIER OF THE RP WIKI!!!!!
SAVIOR OF OUR GAMES!!!!

C'mon guys, you can have your own opinions on homebrew.
Anyway, the Powers look pretty solid to me.
One potential issue is that effectiveness will vary a lot from game to game. How often Presence modifies other skills, and how much you can do with passive charisma, is pretty group-dependent.
Also, if I were you I'd probably make Impressive Impression give +2 and Most Impressive Impression give +4. Seems wrong for them to be identical.
PS: I wouldn't allow these if I was GMing, but that's only because I want to avoid social magic in general; I like the way that the RAW puts mortals and gods on a roughly level playing field socially. It's a style thing.

When one has a lump, the opinion of a licensed oncologist matters more than the opinion of an antivaxxer who never finished high school.

This is my opinion of the power. If it was based on Rapport rather than Presence, it would be much more powerful. The False Face Forward Trapping of deceit is modified by Rapport, so it would also help you with that function of deceit as well.
