And you know it's not any effort for him.Actually, I'm pretty sure I understand at least the basic idea of what you mean, I just wanted to check up on some of the sticker parts of the situation. I'd like to know how you'd handle disparities in RPing skill though. I mean, if you had one player who was more skilled, and you knew he was more skilled, would you hold it against him that he didn't have to try as hard to achieve good results? I'd guess not, as he's still trying to add to the dialog. But as a DM, I'd hold him to a higher standard of playing. So, if the particularly skilled guy said "I'd like to roll diplomacy" That'd get my attention as something being wrong. I could be wrong, but I'd guess that you're mostly angling to get people to pull into the RP aspect of the game. And so you're willing to reward them for doing so, or for trying to. I'm very interested in how you'd handle a situation with a large disparity in skill though, as that's something that I wound up messing up.</blockquote>
