[QUOTE="Guest 6801328, post: 6868217"] So does that mean you're dodging, too, when I asked you to demonstrate the inverse? No, you're not, because we both asked for something silly. Of course I can't show you where it says "not everything in this rulebook is a rule" any more than I can show you the part where it says "the dragons in this game are make believe". I'd be disappointed in WotC if they wasted page space enumerating things that are obviously true. I sort of get what you're trying to say, but your words aren't saying it. I did not measure Int with insanity, love, or charisma. I think you're trying to say that I used to Int to measure things that you think would be better served with insanity, love, or charisma. Those are two very different sentences. But I didn't. I used Int to measure Int. My character has a low Int score, and when rolling Int skills I apply that modifier. I'm doing it exactly like the rules say. Not disagreeing with you, but that's not what you wrote in the last post. I know you just don't like this way of the player riffing on the narrative without the permission of the DM, but the harder you try to find a logical flaw with it (instead of just admitting that it's simply not your play style, which is valid) the more bizarre your arguments become.
