[QUOTE="koesherbacon, post: 6109511, member: 78297"] This disagreement came up in our last session so I want to clarify when Hero Points can be used. Let me share the disagreement with you all and then you can tell me if my interpretation was correct or not. [I]Me (as the DM): The Druid begins her turn and moves from this square to that square. After she moves she begins casting a spell. Rogue: WAIT! I USE A HERO POINT TO TAKE AN EXTRA TURN! Me: No, you can't do that yet. Rogue: No, it says right here! She points to the print out I printed from d20pfsrd.com about Hero Points: "Act Out of Turn: You can spend a hero point to take your turn immediately. Treat this as a readied action, moving your initiative to just before the currently acting creature. You may only take a move or a standard action on this turn." Me: Okay, I know it says you take an action immediately, but I [B]believe[/B] that you can only do that [B]in between [/B]turns not in the middle of another character's turn. Rogue: But it says [B]immediately[/B]. Paladin: He's the DM, he decides. Me: Let's do it that way now, you can use your Hero Point after her spell. I'll check on the forums if i'm interpreting the rule correctly this way or you're interpreting it right. Fair enough? Rogue: Fair enough. [/I]So that's what happened. Can you use a Hero Point to take an extra action any time the way the rogue wanted to or can you only do it in between turns the way I thought they worked? Thanks very much! :) [/QUOTE]
