As you are a Quaker, I feel that I can safely say that your people are, historically, amongst the most heroic in the world.

My point is this, really -- sometimes, the violent one is the hero, but more often, he is the coward.

And I'd love to hear more about that D&D game. How did he get out of all those classic D&D situations? Did others attack him?

He was playing a gnome magic-user (this was old blue-box D&D), and he used his spells to trick and confuse the monsters and slip past them. I think (this is years ago, mind) he had been lured into the dungeon because someone was kidnapped, and he was only trying to rescue the person, rather than loot the dungeon.
