No, I reckon this is where Belkar's gonna die. The oracle said he'd be dead around now-soonish, as I recall.

Y'know, the Oracle didn't specifically say what kinda Belkar would die :3

I mean, yeah, we're all thinking 'Belkar will physically die!' But I'm seeing the Belkar-ish side that did die. As in, remember that shift in Greysky city? That one part with Loki's cleric? Belkar did die there..if you consider that and his new leaf.

Shonus isn't saying that we could, he's saying that the rules of their universe allow them too, it has nothing to do with what we can and can't do.
Yeah, and that's metagaming. Tarquin is being that guy.
This too. I don't think that Tarquin is metagaming at all-he's using something all the characters interpret. Instead of the usual health status we have IRL, they have hitpoints. It's how their life is there.

Also I don't think Tarquin is a metaknowledge or whatever meta guy there is. Just really really knowledgeable about the bardic arts..given how the whole comic is running on D&D mechanics as its laws of Physics that is.

Nah, the Oracle's mentioned Belkar's impending death at least a couple of times.  Specifically, that he'd "draw his last breath - ever - before the end of the year."

Oh and I just got them too.


Also that he'd better not bother funding his IRA, and should savor his next birthday cake.

Could just be he'll be turned undead by Durkon to save him from dying or something.

Belkar didn't change that part of his personality, anyway. He merely faked it - that was what the big talk with the illusion/ghost of the old Azure City ruler guy was about.

The oracle was pretty explicit about him dying, as well. It's just my hunch that this is going to be the end of the psychopathic halfling.

That is literally what he wants you to think.

Finally, I'm on top of things enough that I don't get ninja'd!

New comic is up, btw.

And might I add, HELL TO THE FUCKING YES.

Well, one of them is almost certainly dying. Maybe. Possibly. Then again, considering who is writing this...

he did say if they ever met again it was probably so he could die in a dramatic scene to provide a reason for him to get revenge.
