[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 8442274, member: 29398"] Makes sense; and it boils down to "SOP unless advised otherwise". Of course, otherwise I'm giving away info they shouldn't have (yet). If in that order, yes. But if they jump straight to "I open the chest" without checking for traps then if there's a trap they're gonna find it the hard way. In general I agree; I assume that once a posession's been noted on the character sheet that it's on hand until-unless something in the fiction dictates that it isn't (e.g. the possession was destroyed, or is in a backpack that's been left at the inn while we wander the town, that sort of thing). Where we differ, I think, is that while I assume competence in general I also realize there's going to be occasional times when incompetence or clumsiness rears its ugly head no matrer how well trained you are; and that's what dice are for. Nobody is perfect. [/QUOTE]
