[Orange Wizard]

Roy's toque :3

That truly is a meritorious temple.

[Camulus]

Oh theres a thread for this?
Good. Good.

I binge watched this strip once I came upon it.
Evil internet, with it's insomnia inducing content.

Oh, I just realized that the vampirism of durkon is a clever ploy to flesh out his backstory, since roy, holly and var already have quite a lot known aboot em.

Now....the halfling?
Probably murdered his parents.

I think the official statement from the author is that we'll never delve too deeply into Xykon or Belkar's origins because then their psychopathy would be sad instead of darkly humourous.

[Loud Whispers]

But that's character development

Haven't you read Start of Darkness?

[Orange Wizard]

Haven't you read Start of Darkness?

Which was written with the explicit goal of making Xykon as unsympathetic as possible.

Spoiler: actually spoilers (click to show/hide)

It also didn't include anything of his childhood except a couple of pages of zombie family.

No, Belkar's backstory is one I could believe actually has a twinge of sadness in it, but in Xykon's case it's about as deep as the puddle of blood under zombie grandma's feet.

[My Name is Immaterial]

Belkar's backstory, but the source is unreliable.

[Tiruin]

Belkar's backstory, but the source is unreliable.

I'd rather say complicated than unreliable Given the depth of Belkar's character--he could as well be telling the whole truth, but quick to act on the follow-up. It could be said like a 'split second' drift of body language that is really hard to convey in a comic without making it really obvious(?) as far as I know.

Especially given the last 2 panels. Though also given the nature of the comic...I'm unsure if that was more in jest ._. (I mean, a level has MUCH weight in D&D, right? GM's really take care when they do such things...right?)
I've no experience with D&D though I'd love to really play it.
_{97% of people around me just don't know it x_x}

Him getting roleplaying xp for that is the joke, yes.

Like mould, there's occasionally outbreaks of dnd games on the forums here. As with all forum games, most of them don't last, but that's how it goes with all of them.

[Lord Shonus]

I've put it on hiatus because I'm starting work tonight (and will need a week or two to adjust my rhythms), but I have an ongoing one over maptool. Link should be in my sig.

[scrdest]

New one.

[Willfor]

Mr Berlew has written himself into a corner where his only real choice is to break the law*.

Spoiler: * (click to show/hide)

Though perhaps breaking a fictional law won't have very many consequences for him.

[Akura]

New one is up.

Neutral ground indeed.

[i2amroy]

I like how Roy gets another chance to use those ranks in Knowledge: Architecture that he last used fighting Thog.
