Oh man.  I'm betting Roy's ability to snap out of Durkon's mind control is somehow taken from his experience with Girard's pyramid.

Edit: ooh, r/oots pointed out that this strip mentions Roy's ability to throw off Domination.  With some nice Hel vs. Thor foreshadowing to boot!
Don't forget Roy is turkey brain

I wonder why people on the GitP forum are talking about Durkulon's DR. Isn't Roy's sword magical - assuming the DR doesn't require both silver and magic? They're also saying that if Roy does reduce his HP to zero, Durkulon will somehow end up at Girard's coffin. Even if that was how vampires work, Girard's coffin far, far more than nine miles away.

Vampire DR is "Silver AND Magic" not "Silver OR magic". Only a magic silver weapon will overcome it unless Starmetal bypasses all Undead DR as has been speculated.

He seems to have only middling STR, really.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Our only comparison is with the Orky barbarian which is not really a fair comparison since the Ork basically put everything into str, Roy's got to at least be above average

Giving waitlisted people the ability to murder non-responsive players was a great idea. Need to do that more often.

Rereading the recent archives, I feel like this is probably going to come up soon.  Uh, somehow:

Also there's an antagonism between Captain Bandana and the CE, er, Chief Engineer set up over several strips:
