schedule is random due to several factors. The main one being discussion between fellow conspirators is necessary before I draw the comic.

This is a sitcom version of D&D with the gods. Bahamut and Tiamat are married as you can see.

I don't think Tiamat is a demon lord, but funny otherwise!

EDIT: Also, this belongs in the fan comics subsection of the arts & crafts.

right now I need an idea for the next comic and I'm trying to decide on what Tiamat looks like. Also, even though this is a sitcom I want the characters to actually have some development.

I'm thinking a black outfit like the one the Deva in OOTS has and long black hair.

we're still going with the Vegas marriage I take it?

EDIT: ig that's the case I'll change the dialogue to evil god. shouldn't take too long. I also need to clear up the golf comment. Banned sounds like banned for everybody.

@Myrmex. I'll work on that and make it left to right in the future. thanks for bringing that up.

given her strictness, a business suit might be appropriate. if we're still going with the multiple personalities her hair should change color appropriately.

Mystic Muse

I was thinking speech bubble change. I think if we did a hair color one it would inevitably lead to a Dumb blonde joke.

no the guy with the black demon-a-tar is Face of evil. here's EvilElitest. he's the guy with the Napoleon-atar.

I am really expecting how this comic develop, I also like the drawing of Tiamat.


PS. Are we going to see bahamut and Tiamat in dragon form?

Mystic Muse
2009-11-17, 10:54 PM
yes. you will sometimes but not all the time. it's awful hard to fit a five headed dragon into a panel after all.

I need to confirm all the conspirators and then I need some people to help me decide what Tiamat should look like. if I don't recieve any complaints by six tomorrow my time I'll use that version and begin on the next comic. after that the schedule will be totally random because I'll have to ask the conspirators how the plot should progress.

I'll try to actually develop the characters as well rather than have it be a bad sitcom with boring characters in webcomic form.

Bago!!!
2009-11-18, 05:06 AM
This comic has potential.

My ears are perked. And this may be the last time you'll hear from me on this thread.... MUahahaha!

Edit: Question! Will she have five heads or will she be five headed? There is an actual difference.

Mystic Muse
2009-11-18, 01:17 PM
what's the difference between five heads and five headed exactly?

Bayar
2009-11-18, 02:24 PM
what's the difference between five heads and five headed exactly?

Each of Tiamat's head has it's own personality. Although the red one is usually dominant. That is having five heads.

Five headed is having a being with five heads but with only 1 concience.

Mystic Muse
2009-11-18, 02:27 PM
has five heads each with its own personality then. Red is mostly Dominant.

Gamerlord
2009-11-18, 04:24 PM
She looks OK, not awful.

nightwyrm
2009-11-19, 12:05 AM
Maybe have her hair color change to indicate which head is currently in control while she's in human form.

edit: I see that's been proposed already.

I can see using colored speech bubbles but that lacks a visual cue as to which is in control if she's not talking. I was also thinking that one way you can show her 5 heads doing internal dialogue is to have colored bubbles that doesn't match her outer visual cue.

Zincorium
2009-11-25, 10:47 AM
Okay, now that I can actually see... a few suggestions if you think you can work it out artistically.

1. Use larger speech bubbles relative to the amount of text. Blank space may look a bit odd, but words that hit the border are very distracting.

2. Go higher resolution. It'll help readability of the text and the characters will look as good as you're able to draw. If you're using something along the lines of MS paint, make things big and then scale it down for viewing with something else.

3. Lower the saturation of the colors you're using. There's an extreme degree of contrast, which is fine for some things (like Tia's hair or Pelor's shorts) but it's a bit garish on other stuff.

4. Tia needs high heels- like, really obvious ones. Dominatrix level heels, even. Rounded, flat soled shoes make a character more down to earth and comical- Tia really should have uncomfortable edges at the beginning of the comic, and if you can bring those out with minimal effort it'll be rewarding.

5. Timing/window location. Readers of most western languages read left to right, then up and down, so if you have the dialogue located adjacent to the character's heads all the time it seems out of order.


Hope I'm being helpful rather than annoying and pedantic.

Zincorium
2009-11-28, 06:55 AM
Cooking is always good.

Possible idea:
Bahamut is packing for business trip/finding his Neil Diamond records/attempting to organise his sock drawer...

While Tiamat does a rare attempt at cooking for some friend of hers in order to upstage them. What occurs then is the red personality is engaged in the competitiveness of making some excessively complicated dish, another personality (or two) seize control of her speech centers and has a disjointed conversation with Bahamut.

Bonus points for attempting to hit on Bahamut inexplicably.

Mystic Muse
2009-11-29, 05:17 PM

I'll get some more done tomorrow. School and a few other things have been keeping me from it.

EDIT: six panels so far. THis one is going to be a bit longer. Also, no joke at the end. This one is to help advance what little plot this comic currently has.

Mystic Muse
2009-12-06, 04:42 PM
next comic will be up in about a minute. I skipped ahead because I couldn't think of anything else funny in that part of the story. Or anything even Relevant.

Also, Tiamat's hair is brighter or Darker depending on how she feels at the time. So if her hair is light green she's happy. if it's dark green she ticked. Just an example.

Black hair stays the same no matter what.:smalltongue:

Lolth shall be introduced next comic. however I have to ask the other conspirators how she should look. I think we're going to be developing Tiamat and her personalities for a bit but I'll have to ask the rest of the conspirators what they think of that as well.

I'll be PMing the conspirators tomorrow. If you feel like it you can PM me at any time with suggestions.


I may also do a few fake comics. I know I'll do at least one for April fools. If anybody wants to suggest a joke comic feel free to. It doesn't have to work with the current timeline or anything. However it has to make me REALLY laugh before I consider taking time off from the main comic to make it.

Wow. it's almost been a whole month since my last update. Sorry about that guys.

The song is "the changing of the guard" by Bob Dylan. The line in the last panel Is being said by Bahamut. note the lack of musical notes.

Sorry I couldn't get anything about Lolth in. I'm having a bit of trouble drawing her. ANd I know it's kind of a lousy comic, I'll try and get something better out next time. No I'm not going to use entire pantheons of gods in this comic, only the ones most suggested by the other conspirators and ones I like unless they get voted down by the other conspirators..

I'll try and make my updates more constant than this.

hey, at least I Have a better update rate than Dresden Codak.:smallamused:(for those who don't know there was a three year gap between comics)

apologies to the conspirators for not running this comic by them first. I just had to get something out and this comic seemed harmless enough. Also, as far as I can tell Vorel was never described other than being "beautiful" which doesn't translate well through webcomics.

Months. The longest DC has gone without a comic is 3 months.

Anyway, your storyline shows promise, but the artwork still leaves much to be desired. Keep practising, even when your "conspirators" are still discussing the plot, and you're sure to improve. A couple of minor things, drawing a bold set of borders over the comic will help distinguish individual panels, and will cover up any slight misaligns at the edge of each panel, giving it a cleaner appearance. Additionally, try not to export too much blank space, it serves no real purpose and looks untidy. Lining up the location text in #4 with the comic itself would reduce the image size by half.

Mystic Muse
2010-01-09, 09:58 PM
okay. Facepalm on misreading the dresden codak thing. I misread something.

I don't know HOW the location thing happened. I'll fix that.

EDIT: it was in white text for some reason. that's why I didn't notice it.

double EDIT: thanks for the tip about borders.

And I know the art is bad. Maybe I should make avatars for people to get better?

Triple edit: Is Deviantart better for hosting images than Photobucket? I've noticed some people (like Elagune) having trouble with Photobucket before.

That was actually supposed to be her hair changing from red to blue. White Tiamat hasn't come up quite yet. She will eventually. As will Tiamat in five headed Dragon form. THe gods won't [I]always[I} be in human forms. Except for Maybe Pelor and Asmodeus. Although technically the Latter is an Archdevil not a god.

Suggestion for Io: Rainbow Tie-die clothes and/or rainbow colored hair. His symbol is a metal disc of every color...

Either way his hair should be long, and he should be very, very laid back, with an 'all things in due time' type of attitude, maybe prone to giving cryptic (or not so cryptic) advice. The kind that only makes sense either when needed or in retrospect.

Feel free to have him say things that break the fourth wall very occasionally. He is usually consider the oldest god outside of the over dieties, so that should definantly be a factor in how you potray him, even for comedic purposes.

In retrospect, if you give him multihued hair, have it be faded or at least have him comment on going grey. In fact, have him comment on Bahamut already having grey hair... :smallwink:

Ah. Sorry about that. Adding you back to the list.

Even though you're a mind flayer.

So, any ideas?


Hold on...I'm feeling the vibes....I have one! It is called...."I have no ideas!"

........dang.

So, none of us have any ideas...what do we do now?

I guess I could just try to continue the story anyway. Not sure how well it's going to go but it's better than letting the comic die I guess.

I have one! Funny thing my brain, thinks of new ideas at the speed of light, probably why it is so easy for me to make new campaign worlds.

Bake sale, block party, someone getting fired from their job to be rehired at the end of the episode/arc, mistaken identity, someone accidentally having two dates at the same time and the like are all standard sitcom plots.

Okay, a while ago I came up with an Idea I thought I might run by you conspirators.

In the original story, Vorel Io's first child, is killed by Tiamat and Io Disowns her. She did this because she wanted to frame Bahamut and get him killed. However, she failed to convince Io that Bahamut did so.

What if we changed that around a bit? What if Tiamat actually did succeed in framing her brother and is now the favorite of dear old dad? It would make Bahamut visiting his dad a lot more awkward and as we all know awkwardness is what Sitcoms are all about.

good, bad, Ugly, Horridness from the depths of the brain of an eldritch abomination that should never see the light of day? your choice. This is of course assuming I can fix my Laptop reasonably soon. I don't think it's that great an idea but worth bringing up.

Eh, I don't care for it. Kind of takes away from Io's wisdom if Tiamat can deceive him.

Good point. Like I said, not a great idea.

We'll just keep going with the "Asmodeus is pretty ticked off right now" Storyline then.

Okay, Got my computer to behave again. OMGWTFBBQ! is back on!

Now, one little concern I have is this. We need a plausible explanation as to why Tiamat and Bahamut haven't gotten a divorce yet. Preferably without fourth wall breakage.

I almost have a complete update. If anybody has any ideas for this comic now is the time to let me know.

Cause at least one of Tiamat's heads has a thing for Bahamut?

True but I don't think that'd prevent the other four from divorcing him. She'd be overruled.

maybe at least three have a thing for him? that is a majority.

either that or its Tiamat torturing Bahamut in the best way she can think of- by being his wife.

or she is just masochistic or something :smallconfused: chaotic evil peoples way of thinking never seem to make much sense from a normal person's perspective anyways.

Maybe Io's making them. I mean, he did make them so that they'd breed, thereby combining all the qualities of dragonkind into one.

Mystic Muse

Tiamat one day made a HUGE bet with one of the other deities related to the marriage, and she has to avoid from losing that bet?

Yep. In fact this is the only reason I can think of why they haven't killed each other out of frustration right now.

Sorry it's taking a while. I'm not sure about the quality of the update So I'm going to make a different one. Also, Sooooooo tired.

EDIT: The new one I'm doing is going to focus on Io and Bahamut. Still haven't decided exactly what I want Bahamut's dragon form to look like so it'll just be them in their humanoid forms. Although Io's will look a bit more draconic than Bahamut's or Tiamat's.

Yes, well, you can have her be whatever version/alignment you like. However, this one is LE. For now at least.

Yes. Maybe I don't actually have anything to complain about but I always feel like when I just go on without reading There's some clause that states I've signed away my immortal soul or something.

I would, but I absolutely stink at webcomic drawing, the best I ever did was a man in a top hat and suit, and his suit looked like a censored bar.
