[QUOTE="iserith, post: 6782599, member: 97077"] I disagree. I see the rules as tools I can use to resolve uncertainty. What my game setting looks like and how it operates in a fictional sense aren't necessarily based upon the rules. Edit: So far as I can recall, there are also no rules that say whether or not a monster attacks a dying PC. That is solely up to the DM to decide. If there is a reasonable fictional justification provided for a monster attacking a dying PC, then it's hardly absurd, right? It's trivial to come up with such a reason, at least for me, being a game of imagination and all. He would do what any other fictional character would do - what the author says he does for any reason the author likes with whatever reasonable fictional justification the author chooses to offer. What data do you have to assert that "most" players agree with you? What rules do you think I'm changing? And what [URL="https://bankuei.wordpress.com/2014/01/02/the-immersion-hurdle/"]definition of "immersion"[/URL] are you using here? [/QUOTE]
