Q 90
A character gets near an lying-down enemy that he believes is helpless to perform a coup de grāce.
The enemy, however, is playing possum and not helpless. Since a coup de grāce is a full-round action provoking attacks of opportunity, the lying foe takes advantage of this to strike the character.
Since the character cannot perform the coup de grāce action on a non-helpless foe, does that mean his actions are wasted this turn? Or can he still make a normal attack?

DM: At the end of the meal, the innkeeper is bringing you the cheese plate. Roll for initiative.
PC: Excuse me, what?
DM: I said, roll for initiative. They like their cheese really ripe in these parts. They have the ooze type.
"Excuse me, but... is it a GOOD or a BAD thing when the DM can't help bursting into laughter every time he hears the phrase 'level-appropriate encounter'? No, just curious..."
