As I said to you quite a few pages ago when you were talking about exactly this example you can be a deliberate jerk. You can also bring...

I didn't say it is a good idea. Under what circumstances would you as GM add something to the fiction? It's not in your prep or on the...

This isn't a gotcha. It's a question. One you repeatedly don't answer to instead answer something else I didn't ask. Under what...
