I like Durkon's better, but maybe it's just easier to make black look good.

In related news, I'm still sort of hoping this is a Durkon-specific abnormality, and not some really important constant that nobody knows about.

I don't think so, it looks like the implication is in OoTSverse vampires have this reverse-Alex Mercer thing, and since they can absorb the victim's memories completely nobody who had the opportunity managed to see through that.

Can't wait to see the updated art of V, Haley and Elan.

This is why you never appoint a vampire as your hammerer. Who will hammer the hammerers?

That guy who just started a tantrum spiral?

...When has Durkon ever said "Thor's nuts"?

...When has Durkon ever said "Thor's nuts"?

Durkon hasn't, but another dwarf in the flashback did, thereby indicating that it's a reasonable exclamation for a dwarf to make.

[My Name is Immaterial]

I thought it was the punchline: Thor is nuts/Thor's (possessive) nuts! A statement and a curse.

[Bauglir]

Probably, yeah. But Durkula's objective was to plumb Durkon's memories for a viable exclamation of shock and alarm, and I'm pretty sure he succeeded.

[Sheb]

But then Durkon never said that. So it could tip off the party members.

Especially because Durkon's a cleric of Thor, so ...

Durkula's already said lines that Durkon's never said before. People often say new sentences as time goes one - what's important is to make sure that it's in-character. I don't understand why Durkon himself never saying it is relevant. It's not really clearly blasphemous, either - it's the sort of roughness that might just be Dwarven. You have to keep in mind, the best part about being a Dwarven adventurer is that nobody outside the mountains knows a damn thing about Dwarves. You pretty much have free reign to make up whatever you want about Dwarven culture. Who's going to argue with you? You're the Dwarf.

Of course, inside the Mountain is a totally different story. Dwarven Culture is obviously very homogenized (it's so homogenized it transcends individual stories), so when he gets there he may rapidly have a problem. Of course, he may not plan to go into Dwarven civilization proper at all.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Even if it was blasphemous, do you really think Thor is the type to care about blasphemy? He's too drunk to even listen to prayers most of the time.

[Sheb]

But can you imagine Durkon saying that? It's totally OOC for him.

I totally could.
