[QUOTE="Guest 6801328, post: 6868205"] OH.....MY.....GOD. You are metagaming. You dirty little metagamer. What do you mean the NPC caster "knows" that I failed the save? (Admit it...it feels kind of good, in a naughty way, doesn't it?) You're getting all tangled up here, like Danny. I'm not narrating a lie when I say I don't know the answer, because my character didn't actually *have* the answer. The RP that says I did doesn't actually change the game state. (And, of course, if I passed the original Int check and I *do* know the information, and then I fail the saving throw versus ZoT, I can explain that that trivial little spell had no influence on my superior intellect, but my Patron whispered to me and said, "Give the information to the evil sorcerer, my little pawn...this is all part of my grand scheme. And make it sound realistic.") It's really quite trivial to avoid altering the game state dictated by the dice, or otherwise introducing paradoxes. [/QUOTE]
