[QUOTE="MrGrenadine, post: 4984055, member: 62619"] I can see your point, but can you also see why it would bother some people? I mean, by your argument, anything goes because we're role-playing in a fantasy setting. Why have rules or powers--just say what you want to do, and it happens, right? Its fantasy? But anything doesn't go--there are rules for almost everything, and plenty of analogues to our (real) world--gravity, sickness, death, etc.--to ground the fantasy in enough "real" to make the drama really matter. People just have to choose how much logic they want in their fantasy--there's no deciding for anyone else, (or there shouldn't be). So in your fantasy, molds can become angry due to taunting, and attack the creature taunting them. In my fantasy, molds are unintelligent and dangerous biological organisms that have no organs with which to hear taunting. To each his or her own, yeah? [/QUOTE]
