Would the friend continue to roll when the player returned?  Probably not. In game terms, they were granting a limited, temporary power to act on their behalf.  These two concepts &#8211; range of action and effective period &#8211; also apply to legal power-of-attorney arrangements.  Limiting the range of action &#8212; &#8216;roll but don&#8217;t play&#8217; in the game, or &#8216;healthcare but not financial decisions&#8217; in the legal system, creates limited or &#8216;special&#8217; power of attorney.    An agent granted the right to make any personal or business decision, by contrast, has general power of attorney &#8211; it&#8217;s like saying &#8216;roll, play, sell properties, or anything else&#8217; in a game.  Here a few common types of power of attorney: Temporary periods of authorization are called temporary power of attorney.  Common power of attorney authorizes the agent until the grantor is incapacitated.   Durable power lasts beyond incapacitation &#8212; &#8216;play my turn even if I can&#8217;t come back&#8217; &#8212; while   &#8216;springing&#8217; power of attorney starts with incapacitation &#8212; &#8216;play my piece if I can&#8217;t come back.&#8217;  Power of attorney can have great impact, and legal advice may be required.<br clear='none'\/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Imagine a board game player telling a friend &#8216;roll for me, but don&#8217;t sell anything&#8217;.
