I keep getting this error when I try to call local function

#1

I am making a JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure of game and when I use the local function, I get this same error every time
(ServerScriptService.Abilities.Humanoid.R6.Skills.Summon:22: attempt to index boolean with ‘Character’)

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local Modules = ReplicatedStorage.Modules
local Remotes = ReplicatedStorage.Remotes

local StandRemotes = Remotes.Abilities.R6
local SummonRemote = Remotes.Abilities.R6.Summon

local Effects = ReplicatedStorage.Effects
local Sounds = ReplicatedStorage.Sounds
local Animations = ReplicatedStorage.Animations


local StandSounds = Sounds.Abilities.R6
local PlayerAnimations = Animations.Abilities.R6.Player
local StandAnimations = Animations.Abilities.R6.Stand

local Models = ServerStorage.Models

local StandModel = Models.Abilities.Humanoid.R6
local function Summon(Player)
	local Character = Player.Character
	if not Character then
		return
	end

	local HumanoidRootPart = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

	local Stand = StandModel:Clone()
	local StandRoot = Stand.PrimaryPart

	StandRoot.CFrame = HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(2, -1, -2)

	local Weld = Instance.new("Weld")
	Weld.Part0 = HumanoidRootPart
	Weld.Part1 = StandRoot
	Weld.C1 = CFrame.new(2, -1, -2)
	Weld.Parent = HumanoidRootPart

	Stand.Parent = Character
end


SummonRemote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Debounce, Player)
	print("Working Checked")
	Summon(Player)
end)

The Player is always the first argument for OnServerEvent.

#3

trying replacing

SummonRemote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Debounce, Player)
	print("Working Checked")
	Summon(Player)
end)

With this:

SummonRemote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player, Debounce)	
    print("Working Checked")
	Summon(Player)
end)

Player is always the first argument

#4

This isn’t my issue but im curious as to why its always the first argument.

#5

The server needs to know which player fired it as it can’t access a specific player like a local script. How will it know which player to affect if you don’t pass the argument? That’s why it has the highest priority as a parameter and needs to come first
