[QUOTE="mips42, post: 6342162, member: 6746242"] Borrowed from another thread: One of a GM's primary duties in running the game is to find ways to say 'yes' when a player tries to do a thing. If the rules don't explicitly cover what the player is trying to do, extrapolate from what you know. I've run 2e to 4e and don't remember ever having a situation that I couldn't figure out from 'RAW'. Sometimes it take some creativity, but that's okay.[LEFT][COLOR=#000000] If you want to give Advantage (or inspiration, or a +1 or whatever) because it's cool? Go for it.
