Please have Franz not ask for a initiative everytime, during specific skill checks,when I'm not trying to initiate combat at all.

There's a scene in my campaign where I told an NPC, that I will show him a display of my swordsmanship, in hoping he'll let his daughter travel with me as a companion. I proceed to try and iaijustu- quickdraw one of his strongest blades, to cut it cleanly in half. Yet, each time, Franz would see that as trying to initiate combat and would always ask for an initiative roll.

There are other examples, like me playing as an assassin. I would try to stick a blade into a unaware npc, like the one-hit kills with the hidden blade in Assassins Creed, yet Franz would then ask for a initiative and turn it into a combat scenario, which dampens the fun, because what kind of assassin am I, if every attempted assassination turns into a combat scenario each time?

Anyways, that's my request. Please consider it.
