[QUOTE="Asisreo, post: 8360446, member: 7019027"] Of course, the implication of the scenario isn't that the character only ever threatens, but the still find a way to be violent without overtaking the spotlight. While some people might think talk is cheap, what you say indicates who you are as well. This isn't about the outside perspective of your character, its about their internal characterization. So long as the character fully intends to carry through with all their intents and does so when given the opportunity, its still their character. If an outside perspective contradicts internal nature, well, that makes them a bit more realistic. Anyways, I do agree that if they back down as soon as they are given the opportunity, then they aren't actually engaging in roleplay, but threats are still the act of violence-leaning characters and all actions and words should at least change the flow of the game at least a bit.
