Message: <blockquote data-quote="Chaosmancer" data-source="post: 8692945" data-attributes="member: 6801228">Right, so a misunderstanding of what cowering is. Cowering is "crouching down in fear." Covering yourself with your hands, hiding, that sort of thing. Quaking and not being able to step forward isn't cowering. I also just love the insult of putting brave in quotation marks. Doesn't matter that he is still fighting despite his fear, doesn't matter that he isn't running, because they aren't running away because of the fear, since they can't move forward, they are "not brave enough". And this is exactly the problem. By defining bravery as beating the frightened condition, you have warped what it means to be brave. And personally, I reject that model of bravery that says a person who is temporarily overcome by fear cannot be brave. No, because once again, I'm talking about the narrative when the halfling isn't taking actions. So, unless RAW has something to say about narrating non-actions, you are missing the point again. Actions =/= Non-Actions And you are missing the point. Because, as I've said, UNLESS THEY ROLL A ONE there is nothing lucky to narrate. And if they roll a one and fail anyways? There is nothing lucky to narrate. So, if the halfling is supposed to feel lucky ALL THE TIME then the DM will have to narrate luck EVEN WHEN THE HALFLING DOESN'T ACT. Level 12. But yeah, see, the funny thing about statistics is that even things you think are unlikely, happen. Because some people are lucky. Which tends to affect things at the table. Still not understanding my actual position. Why? Do halfling PC's not have classes? No wonder people say that they unremarkable. In other words, you never understood my position and what I was talking about. Which is why I pushed you on it, yet you still seem to not have gotten what I was talking about</blockquote>
