[QUOTE="HammerMan, post: 8474176, member: 84112"] the PC can state the goal (and in most circumstances, even sociol ones) if they are paying attention and know the table they can make some pretty good educated choices on what they can and can not accomplish. However they do NOT ever get to tell the DM what the result is. They get to try the action, make a check if one is needed, then the DM narrates the result. I can guess kobold fight or flight response is going to be flight WAY more then fight, I can guess that Orc and ogers fight or flight response will be fight more often then not, and I would bet most DMs would have Hobgoblins more of a tatical mindset even when intimidated as to weather fight or flight kicked in. (fight or flight is a super simplification, they could cower and beg, they could surrender, they could yell for help, they could throw something and run, i am sure I am missing possibilities) [/QUOTE]
