@Azure FlameNot sure how Pointing a weapon at someone which in and of itself is the initiation of an attack then leaving after discharging the weapon into the ceiling should or could allow the initiator to then make an escape, commit several other attacks and cover a distance before the target
"Lucas" and those around him can make or surrender counter attacks on he
"Odum" for shifting from interaction to combat.
I tagged you Flame as the original target because your case takes precedence then as the person closest to you, me
"Naomi and so on.
I call on this understanding that Typhoon may not grasp how combat actions happen or that the brandishing of a weapon on a Player Controlled Character is an attack and must allow a counter; on an NPC it would be okay so long as that NPC isn't a GM NPC.
Been doing this a long time so this is actually not an uncommon mistake in play; been there, seen it before.
It is called God Modding.... sure the attack did no physical damage but it was still an attack... A Charisma attack or a Reputation attack
The first is basic intimidation and the latter of greater consequence because reputation is fragile in RPG. Allowing such an affront if not even verbally countered is the assumption the initiator won the encounter without response and the target lacks the greater will.
Resolution
No worries on the actions I am sure Flame will let it slide; too many posts have happened since that action and your rewrite might throw a wrench into the flow
You can write he touched his gun then it was drawn and used outside
As I said it's not an uncommon mistake and I do apologize for going Co-GM mode... wasn't trying to flex but inform
Are you okay with this?
