[QUOTE="theemrys, post: 3309674, member: 25516"] Ok, here's a great example of how it can work out. In a campaign I was running, one of the characters was an uncharismatic (6 Cha) elven rogue... (Figured as an elf, at least he was still more attractive than humans... he had a LOT of personality issues which is what made him so fun). The rest of the party was invading the enemies castle through the roof, but there wasn't enough room for all on the flying carpet. Since this rogue (Griere) didn't have a high opinion of the party, he decided to work at bluffing his way in. This was NOT a social character, but it was his call. He headed up the front entrance, disguised in a cloak recovered from an enemy before... and headed in. he was stopped by a number of Hobgoblin guards... They questioned him so we made the bluff check... he got a net 4... Figuring he was screwed, he said "I'm here to kill your mothers"... the hobgoblin's rolled a natural 1 on the sense motive... "Alright, come on in then". It was pretty funny, but the way the rolls went made for some very interesting scenarios. This has happened to me before in many different games, both in combat as well as social situations. I think the rolls work well to be a guide as to how to roleplay it out. [/QUOTE]
