We had a Rogue/Wizard that had been captured, stripped of all gear (including material components), and subjected to the bite of a small insect whose venom was supposed to prevent the concentration needed for spell casting. (I'm not sure where the DM came up with this from, and it doesn't matter.)
A Lycanthrope then entered his cell and ordered the character, "Do what you do!", to see if he had any magical ability left.
Seeing that he was expecting a spell, the Rogue kicked him in the shins, as his Surprise action. Then, beating the Lycanthrope on the Initiative, he caught him Flat Footed and kicked him in the other shin.
Aside from the raucous laughter around the table at the image presented (Whisper Gnome kicking a Were Bear in the shins), this scene raised a few questions: 1) Can the Whisper Gnome use Sneak Attack with non-lethal attacks, such as untrained unarmed strikes?
2) Will Sneak Attack damage go through if the original attack didn't top an opponent's DR? (Were Bear's have DR10/Silver.)
