I respect you Warren as an RPer and know you wouldn't do that. I just throw that out there because... I have seen that. There's nothing more :/ than having a hyur RPer take a direct hit from your character, lalafell or not, and just laugh it off and say "You're not even trying!"
So, while I don't think a Lalafell can do a straight up one hit knockout (unless it's to specific places... knockout 'game' /sigh) but I think they can take the punches "regular" punches. They're not going to take too many clothesline or "charged up" hammers just as how they're not just going to flop when they get hit.
Agreed. I never commented on lala's being flimsy for that reason exactly; I just figured part of their rotundness meshed with them being durable. Squishy, you might say. Hell, I even gave the reply to Berrod's question that they might very well "catch" the kick and just cling to the leg. They're sized like children, but they aren't children.
One of the things that burns me up the most is people no-selling offense in combat-rp situations. If you get hit, get hit, don't just shrug it off and counter. Be creative! I had to fight someone who was like, a starved wiry skeleton person and opened with a roundhouse kick. I lost the roll, but I still posted that Warren blocked it.
Then the kick went through his block and staggered him a bit because he underestimated the force behind it. Hell, part of the fun of combat RP is solving damage! For me, anyway.
