Rolling against a personality ability (or augmenting with one) does not require me to hear that character's internal dialogue. The fact that Nisk is extremely brave is an objective fact, not a subjective thought. Fwiw, most of my players' personality abilities or relationships could come straight out of a saga.

However, this discussion of comparative literary preferences is probably better suited for the digest.
