[quote=AeronFarron] And that is why responsible people embrace the true nature of parkour and minimize the impact. That "silly role" is very important. It conserves the momentum you have through the air to the ground, allowing you to land in a relatively safe way. When you land on just your legs, all of that falling momentum is placed on your legs. This is fine for short heights, but on longer drops, or farther jumps, it doesn't bode well. The roll, while still kind if dangerous, should never kill you when executed with proper form and with the proper discretion. Breaking an arm or a leg is much more likely to happen.Parkour always carries a level of risk, it's part of the sport. In case you couldn't figure you out though, Erica is a risk taker. Her fighting style, Capoeria, is all about skill and risk. Much like parkour, she can die if she doesn't balance responsibility and risk taking. A over zealous kick, or over rotation, or even an improper base can lead to injury or even death. So please, take your condescending tone elsewhere.By the way, wrong spelling. I think the word you are looking for is "roll". [/quote] Indeed, that was a typo. I'm not sure how you construed that as me being condescending. I was only commenting on what Renose said- it reminded me of a WoD RP where a player seemed intent on doing the most outrageous actions all the time, and was saved only by his amazing dice rolls. He could have died any number of times if he failed it.
