[D&D 4E] Start at 7th level and create a fear...
Daniel36:
Caldis has a point. I was just thinking "What are my (personal) fears?"
When I was in high school I loathed having to speak in front of the class... Nightmarish. Now, I am a teacher. I took care of that particular fear and bent it to bettering myself as a person.
Perhaps the "fear" was indeed a way for the GM to make players invest in their characters, perhaps to come up with something for the characters specifically, so that it wasn't so much a mechanic as a way of delivering a story that included the characters.
I would definitely talk to the GM.

Not sure I understand the last little bit but when the girl shows up your character runs away? It doesnt sound like you are all that interested in exploring the commitment issues with the girl either.
Can you see I wasn't asked a question that had room for exploration? I was asked in advance of the actual play moment, to predecide my choice. The other option would be to marry her the moment I see her, which isn't exploratory nor much of a fear, either.
The shape of his question and what answers that question allows and doesn't allow, is significant.
I'll admit, I had this lil' gamer fantasy of my own that I'd say "commitment" and he'd get a little lightbulb above his head and go "Awww...I see what you did there! Possibilities!".
Hopefully, as said, I can shift to -5 penalties instead.
