I am still getting the specail characters. Have I interpreted the documentation incorrectly??
$word = chars($minlen, $maxlen [, $set , $characters, $maxcount ... ] );
Generatess a completely random word between $minlen and $maxlen in length. If $set is given, it must be an array ref of characters to use. You can restrict occurrence of some characters by providing($characters, $maxcount) pairs, as many as you like. $characters must be a string consisting of those characters which may appear at most $maxcount times in the word.

Yes, it looks like you are mis-interpreting. If $set is given, it must be an array ref of characters to use so this argument contains the list of chars to use, as opposed to not using.
Perhaps you want:
$Password=chars(5,8,\('a'..'z'));
which should create a password between 5 and 8 chars in length, containing only lowercase chars from 'a' to 'z'.
Hope this helps
