Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cruentus" data-source="post: 9660870" data-attributes="member: 7034645">[USER=59]@Old Fezziwig[/USER] Thanks for the write-up and explanation.  I guess I was just getting too hung up on how often it 'might' get called on.  I totally understand if the player wants to use it to either guide behavior, or is generally ambivalent, it can push the character one way or the other (and not always in a good way!). What I wanted to try to avoid was myself calling for tests of Traits frequently, thinking that every time a situation came up where someone could be dishonest, that they roll (or any of the Traits, not just Honest).  I imagine if a knight is in a situation where they are asked a question, and the knight's Trait lean toward Honesty, and they say they are going to tell the truth, I then don't have to have them make a check.  They can just choose to be honest.  I also understand that if a knight has a strong Honest Trait, and they say they are going to lie, THEN I would ask for a test, first against Dishonest, then Honest if necessary. Is my thinking in the right vein here? And [USER=52734]@Stormonu[/USER], I agree, as a 40 year+ DnD player, getting my head around Pendragon, and Alien, and other RPGs that aren't all hack fests, and where hacking is likely to get you killed, has been a lot of fun (and challenging to get my 40 year play group to try).</blockquote>
