The chr file extension is is also related to Baldur's Gate or IceWind Dale games that are based on the Infinity game engine.
The chr file stores individual character starting stats and other data. They can be found in the characters folder, typically accompanied by a .bio file that has same file name.
Baldur's Gata games (at least the sequel) offer a special CharView.exe program that can be used to load up *.chr files and check the NPC data. Works only if the game is installed, not just when run from install disc.
There seems to be no way of converting this file type and it would also serve no purpose.

ROSE Online is a Korean MMORPG for Microsoft Windows developed by Gravity Interactive. The game uses CHR files for data associated with its non-player characters (NPCs).
A CHR file contains NPC Zscript data used by ROSE Online. It is a game resource rather than a general-purpose document and is intended to work with the files and software of the corresponding ROSE Online installation.
Use a compatible Windows installation of ROSE Online to read a CHR file. The game normally loads the file as part of its own data and does not open it as a standalone document.
Do not edit or rename the file unless the relevant ROSE Online installation or development tools specifically require it, as changes may prevent the game from loading the associated NPC data.
The ROSE Online CHR format is intended for use by the game rather than conversion to a general-purpose format. Keep the file in its original form and use it with a compatible version of ROSE Online.
Conversion or export is only practical through tools designed for the relevant ROSE Online version, if such tools are available.
