Could the player instead say "I decapitate the first gobo to reach me, smear its blood on my face, and howl madly at the rest". Would you rule in favor of something like that, or would the player in this situation have to stick to the combat mechanics which makes all this in a single round impossible? Or perhaps a hybrid where the player must succeed in the attack enough to drop said gobo and then get a free intimidate becasue of role play?</p></blockquote><p></p>
