[QUOTE="HammerMan, post: 8471965, member: 84112"] and that is the way I run it. Nothing I do is in anyway apart from how I read pg 185. I don't think I gave a page number, but every monster in the 5e MM that has a social skill. not a page (don't have book on me) [URL="https://roll20.net/compendium/dnd5e/Orc#content"]Roll20[/URL] [LIST] [*]Skills Intimidation +2 [/LIST] I have not heard of that, but again none of my groups really use the inspiration... I do find it funny that in the same post asking for a page number of a rule you say "It's not RAW" no. I don't forget gaming for a minute. If me and my fiancé have a fight, it will almost for sure be talked about on game night (especially if the fight is ongoing) Chris, Becky and Ross can all advise me on what I can do and what they think are best with out telling me how to do something. Advise and tell have VASTLY different connotations. Now back to the game table idea, If I run a halfling divination wizard with lucky and the halfling luck feat (so like 8+ level) I have ALOT of resources that can effect the table. I can reroll my 1's, but once per turn I can let an ally in range reroll a 1, and I have 3 luck points for me or people in range to reroll, and I have 2 pregenerated d20 rolls that can be substituted (I think it has to be before the roll but not100% sure). In both cases my Hafling is my character and I get to decide what to do with all of those resources. another player at the table telling me to use my pregenerated nat 20 to get his/her PC up from a death save at one table sounds very different to me then another asking me to use it, or even the DM advising "you may want to use that" Now if the DM said "I don't like killing players so you have to use your nat 20 now" I would almost for sure walk away from that table. If the PC said "Just do it, you need me don't be a jerk" I would be annoyed but most likely stay at table (unless other irritants happened) If the PC said "Hey, can you help me out with my death saves" that I THINK is pretty normal for a D&D experience. If the DM said "Hey if I were you I would use one of your thingeis to make sure they make this save" that doesn't seem to have the implication of 'telling me how to play my character' and of course all of that was not the example I used... becuse in MY EXAMPLE i said the player could ask...
