Important to remember: TORTURE ALMOST ALWAYS YIELDS FALSE INFORMATION. Yes, if you start breaking his bones and pulling out his fingernails, he WILL tell you that he works for The Bandit King whose base is under Castle Blackthorn in the Deathgloom Mountains beyond the Forest of Suffering. But...

I played an Elf Charlatan Rogue, and my favorite thing about the character was that when I was introduced to the party, I was posing as a traveling Ambassador to a far-off exotic city-state. I dressed flamboyantly, spoke with a fake accent, and frequently brought up the fictitious land I came...

His name is Jon Lovitz.

My PCs are working as Scouts for a famous Monster Hunter. He can't be everywhere at once, so when someone hires him to slay a terrible monster, his team of Scouts heads out overland to find the monster, confirm its existence, and locate its lair. Then the REAL Monster Hunter comes in to do...

The very definition of a turn given in the PHB indicates that taking a turn is when you either do something or choose not to do something. Anything. If you can't do anything or make the choice not to do anything, then you did not take a turn. When you're at 0 HP, the thing you're doing is...

There is no need to be insulting. I was making a point separate from your point.

They don't have to mention it. If you define a turkey sandwich as "turkey between two pieces of bread," and then I tell you that for today's lunch you can't have turkey or bread, I didn't tell you you can't have a turkey sandwich, but it doesn't look like you're having one today, does it?

The definition of a "turn" is that the player must have some ability to make a decision about what they do or do not do. If the character can not do anything (move/act/ready an action/take a free action) then they have not taken a turn. Their turn came up in the order and they were unable to...

You "have" the turn, but you can not "take" the turn. "Taking a turn" means you must do something. Incapacitating someone prevents them from "taking" their turn.

A reaction can occur on your turn or someone else's. Reactions are a separate entity from the concept of the "turn"

People are getting hung up on the definition of "turn". What is a "Turn"? According to the PHB: Now, reading that, I don't know how you can think that someone who has no ability to make any decisions about whether or not they will move or act has "taken a turn". Are they moving? Are they...

If he can't perform any actions or move, then he hasn't taken a turn. If his initiative came up in the order and he CHOSE to do nothing, then he took his turn. But if he is HELD or otherwise INCAPACITATED and prevented from doing anything (especially from doing anything to defend himself) then...

You didn't read my last paragraph, which you actually quoted in your post. As I said, in the post you quoted but did not read, you would have ADVANTAGE on those attacks because your targets had not taken any actions in combat (which is a requirement of the Advantage portion of Assassinate), but...
