[QUOTE="Traveon Wyvernspur, post: 6075207, member: 73201"] Hold on hold on. I'm not talking about overweight or clumsy people suffering penalties or gaining bonuses to their characters because of the player. I'm talking about the actual ROLE PLAYING here guys, don't take me so far out of context that will just piss me off here and I won't even talk to you anymore. In a role playing game we all know this is in our imagination. I reward imagination, there's nothing that says that the group can't walk from the table then talk about what they want to do and come up with a plan together using their combined imaginations. Perhaps someone is better than another at thinking outside of the box, but they want to use the "face" of the PC's to add more bonuses to the scenario. I'm totally cool with that. I tell my players to try to role-play out good things that aren't just "I am barbarian, I kick door down, I slaughter man wife and kids" perhaps the player plays that kind of stupid barbarian but IRL he's a member of MENSA, he can talk to the fat dumb guy in the group who plays a paladin with 25 CHA and they can come up with a plan where the Paladin "thought" up the words to say or perhaps the Barbarian had a moment of greatness. I don't care, but to say something so silly as to accuse me of discriminating against my players based on their RL abilities is preposterous. [/QUOTE]
