Just like we know we can't curse or use will attacks against the turrets. If this information isn't known to us I wasn't told. Even if that weren't the case we've seen normal attacks have very little effect and area attacks do better than normal. (my ranged attack and Callen's area attack)#2&3 no, you failed to have ANY reaction to the dogs. No hate, no fear, nothing. Not even some grumbling about them. No non verbal reactions. No emotion at all towards the dogs. #4&5 Again, no reaction at all until dogs were here. If you'd have disliked/hated/feared the dogs, I'd have taken an annoyed look, kicking one something. Give me something to check my insight against so I can see something is bothering you.#6 Very convenient if you don't want damaged and stay at a range to do so. Because of a fear that no one has ever seen the least bit of indication of. If you were truly afraid of the dogs, I'd have expected you to attack the things inside and get away from them, not throw spells that don't work very well against it.#7 You not taking damage isn't an advantage to you? If I die and you have to retreat to the boat what have you lost?#8 I'm upset about WHY you aren't using an effective attack. If you had a reason that made more sense to me, I might not be happy about it but i wouldn't be upset about it.#9 If you want to put down the dogs as quickly as possible, you'd thunderwave. If you want to get as far away as possible, you'd go in the other room. Your mixing fear and hate together. I have NO problem with you roleplaying your character. My issue is with something thrown at me out of the blue that drastically alters the way combat goes and makes my chances of living drop. I'd ask that if you want to do something like this in the future, you'd give a hint or something before you spring it on someone. Even if you're Mr stoic, put something in OCC. Give me a chance to use my insight to see the dogs affected you. At the very least you set the groundwork for your emotional problems. Right now I can only think you've got a few screws lose by going out of your way to use ineffective spells. I'd had a few games where any time this one character didn't want to attack some creature, he'd dredge up issue he had with the creature in question. 'when I was 1st level I missed a save against a snakes poison so I can't get close to the hydra. I'll just stand behind this pillar and throw daggers while everyone else was fighting for thier life.' As such I have a strong dislike for spontaneous phobias and such.[/sblock]</blockquote>
