Floatation spells are dispelled by kisses!!!!!
What is Fleece up to? Not treasure, the module is already riggeed. Hmmmm?
Freya doesn’t normally go in for the convoluted sneaky plots, and Enkidu WAS just uncharacteristically nice to her sister. Maybe she was just saying thanks?
Nonsense, “thanks” are said with boobs, not with lips alone.
Look, whatever’s going on, at least tell me the bloody cigar’s finally going away. I hate that thing. ^^;
Nope!
But it promotes unhealthy habits!
“Unhealthy habits” and “Enkidu” work so exceedingly well together in the same sentence.
He’s been smoking that thing for how long by now? Must be a magic everlasting cigar…. not to mention the way IT FLOATS.
Seriously, the cigar smoke at least keeps the flies away from him, and masks the stink from his unwashed orc feet.
It actually is a magical everlasting cigar, and a No-Prize to the first one who can tell me where Enkidu got it from!
Swiped it from Hellboy I bet.
If so he should’ve swiped Selma Blair too. And maybe Ron Perlman’s vocal cords so he can make them repeat “War. War never changes” ad infinitum.
I’m still downloading. :’(
Umm. Gonna take a guess without resorting to looking in the archives.
It was loot from Vorpine’s basement, right?
Did I get the no-prize?
EDIT: Just checked my guess. Close, but no cigar (see what I did there?). No no-prize for me!
Heh, you’re right, Ron. You’re wrong!
I did look at the archives(because I’m cheap like that), and it seems it was way back in #59, and it belonged to Bixer the imp.
I had the fuzzy impression it was from some god or something, but a lesser demon still is a supernatural entity, right?
It did belong to Bixer.
So do I get my No-Prize now? It’s like a Duniverse’s No-Ship/Globe/Chamber, right? Does it come with a hot imprinter or do I need to get my own?
I admit I didn’t know anymore without looking it up in the archives, I only remembered Enkidu stole it from someone…therefore I’m not eligible for that no-prize no-money.
I refuse to believe that PC’s are not plotting against each other!
I probably wouldn’t go quite so far as to say THAT.
Enkidu suffers confusion for 1d4 rounds…
At least.
No. 4th Edition rules. He’s “dazed, save ends.”
“Lighten up, Francis.”
HAH! (You know, I thought something very similar myself.)
“I hate being called ‘human.’ Any of you calls me ‘human’ … I’ll kill you.”
Holy crap! Kevin you are turning them into muppets! Just look at Enkidus’ eyebrows in the last panel! They’ve gone CLEAR!.
No, no. Clearly what we’re seeing is the old trope about hair turning white when the character has been subjected to something very scary. Obviously, Freya’s revelation that Enkidu is being nice has shaken poor Enkidu’s entire world view and scared the bejeezus out of him. However half-orcs (sorry, Enkidu) are only subject to hair on the face turning white, rather than the scalp.
/em rolls “bluff” check
Yes, art sucks. I think we’ve been over this before.
It’s OK, Kevin, I know where credit is due and I understand the hint , you’ll get a kiss from me. Whether you want it or not.
SOMEONE has rolled a fumble here.
It’s okay, Kevin, happens to the best of us.
Apparently!
Where does Freya have her right hand in the first panel?
That’s not a pocket.
In her… pants?
I don’t know why, but this is very common for people wearing overalls to do. It’s like there’s a genital touching exemption for rednecks and farmers.
Are you sure that’s not just your crazy “Girls In Overalls Masturbating” fetish with a side-dish of wishful thinking?
Maybe it wasn’t just Enkindu being nice that made her happy…..
Maybe Freya’s player just found out that Enkidu’s player has a nicer car than the DM.
And doesn’t giggle for 5 whole minutes every time, if my memory serves?
Argh! I was just through the introductory course in Fallout: New Vegas, finished setting all my stats and looting the guy’s house, and was about the exit the door to see what awaited me…When there was blackout in the whole street.
But power failures will not stop me from playing FNV(well, they would, but I’ll, err, start again!)!
So, uh, if I disappear for the next few weeks you’d know which company to thank.
woho, finally done… so far
i could have told that the cigar is from bixer, but then again, i just started the comic yesterday and read through it in a long an boring night. and with the comic open i couldnt sleep: “just one more strip” … “ok thats the last one” … “oh shit its getting light out again, i should really go to sleep” … “ok, thats the last one” … so yeah that was about at 400, and look where i am now.
what i noticed, with the undoing of coloring (which looked quite good) the PG rating exploded too, any explaination for that?
1. The great DM may alter boundaries and rules as his mood changes. Any player forgetting their place may find themselves subject to “Rocks fall, everyone dies.” While this is not Kevin’s usual style of DM’ing from what I can gather, a healthy reminder of the power of the great DM is always good.
2. Welcome!!
The basic notion was that I had been keeping myself “family safe” in order to sell books. However, no one was buying them anyway, so I decided to make the strip the way I wanted, which was considerably more adult. (Adult=Childish.)
With the mention of the no-prize I assumed it was a Marvel Comics cigar from either Stan Lee or J. Jonah Jameson….
Oh my god, she killed Enkidu !
