The OOTS universe is 3.5 though, not 5E. Of course though, Helgya, of all people, should have a high will save, and then there’s Minrah who somehow dodged it, maybe wasn’t in line of sight.

Or I guess they didn't bother to dominate because she's a squishy and relatively low level? Or maybe just made the saves herself

[Akura]

She was looking the other way, probably initially focused on the spawn between Roy's backside and Belkay. The vampire's domination power requires full eye contact and only hits one person - there were only four vampires(one destroyed during the dominations), and 7 possible targets.

Huh! Strength of knowing oneself so well, I guess. Something you wouldn't typically expect from a dwarf paladin of all people.

So is he gonna be some sort of half-vampire thing now? And what let Belkar get back up?

[crazyabe]

And what let Belkar get back up?

Belkar, unlike everyone else was just knocked out, and Remember that Amulet of Protection from evil he had? his cat JUST dislodged it- and since it causes him so much pain, I doubt anyone could stay knocked out through that, Especially since it helped turn off a Vampires "dominate person".

[Criptfeind]

He's a Dwarven Cleric, I believe, not a paladin. Who's main stat is presumably wisdom, so makes sense in a way.

He's probably still a full vampire, just has basically turned his vampire persona into a copy of himself.

[Xantalos]

I didn't remember it until you mentioned it, actually. The amount of Chekhov's guns in this story is so damn high that I'm liable to forget half of them were even a thing when they end up being fired.

Well, they just jumped the shark. No reason not to use those diamonds on more important people from an ethical perspective; if losing the chance to meet someone you've never met is the worst moment of your life, you've got it pretty good; and lastly the lecture was dull.

[scriver]

The other people they could have used the diamonds on was his own dad.

[Criptfeind]

Also the fact that they were unimportant is actually a pretty good reason to rez them, important people are more likely to have died with honor and/or have people able to afford their resurrection.

I think this set of pages is my favorite. This is a good set-up and execution through and through.

And aye. Durkon's worst day was losing her husband and then having to force herself to come to grips that he is gone, and happier for it. If you look at all those past scenes, she looks like shit. They ended up helping her as much as she helped them.

Is his mom's name also Durkon? Because otherwise I think you made a typo. Or think Durkon is his mom.

Also, looks like he may have just Weatherwaxed that vampire.

It's a new spin-off comic called Being Durkon Malkovich, in which Durkon goes inside his own head and everyone's called Durkon. All dialogue is now "Durkon? Durkon Durkon!"

See, this is the ultimate endpoint. There Durkula, and inside him is a Durkon. And that Durkon is projecting Durkon memories. That's three levels deep already. And the Durkon in the memories was remembering even earlier memories. 4 levels deep in Durkon. The end result is an infinite regress of Durkons, it's Durkons all the way down.

I think I am tired. : (

In 3.5, no, afaik there's no rules that spell duration is tied to the life of the caster except in cases where that's explicitly the case (which it isn't for most spells of course) so spells continue on. Potentially certain self buffing spells would end as you turn from a creature into an object (what is a dead body in 3.5, creature or object, is actually somewhat debatable and an important distinction for some spells I believe) and thus no longer quallify as a target for the spell, but other then that they should just keep on past death.

In 5E almost all spells with an ongoing effect are concentration and thus will end when the dead caster can no longer concentrate. There are a few exceptions though I believe, which afaik would also continue past death.

(In 5E) Some spells become permanent if you concentrate on them long enough - permanent generally means dispelable but without a duration anymore, and don't require to maintain concentration. These would probably continue after the caster has died.
