Ok, this is the problem with flash forwards, we have no idea what happened inbetween. So can we just say that "a wizard did it" so that Commie can actually be at Tajira?

This is the part where we forget Leroy, you run away and I run after you despite the fact that we are on two seporate teams...

@BedMon: DUN DUN DUNNN...!!!
I really like your art work, it started off great and now it's brilliant, one of the most unique Oots styles on the forum I think along with some others, and although I'm not sure what just happened, GREAT COMIC! :smallbiggrin:

Well, what just happened is that the Citadel just touched down in the capital of Tajira, where "Lazarus" saw the ads showing Ins. Consequently, he's unbelievably ticked that Ins has turned his face into a public image without his consent, knowledge, or desire.

Mostly, he wants to kill him for stealing his corpse and using his stuff (Aka: The disguise he was using previously, as seen in Remember to be from Arcanian times, where it was worn by the same person that betrayed his entire country)

Me too, I was just showing you a way how to get the right shape, you can do the same realy in inkscape, draw a circle, and a sqaure, and then use that to get the overall shape.

Here are my nodes and node handles if you it helps..

The simplest way to change his expression from there is to lower or raise the median point in the mouth (At the jaw). For example, the above Yeril pic is a happy kobold, whereas the first one is sadder

As no-one answered me earlier, I will repeat my question.
I will be making OotS style artwork again tomorrow, and hope to start my first canon ABR comic. Which storyline should I join?
From what I can see, in SDSB, most of the characters are on a Bone Train, while in FFF they've just reached a city ruled by a Lyinginbedmon clone.

Bayar
2008-01-06, 10:37 AM

NOTICE: This comic is not suggesting romantic intrigue between Astral 32 and Ichneumon. This is partly because both of us are male (I think), and this would be, well, see the comic title. Also, the armor color change should be considered never to have happened, and that it was always gold and black.


Also, We need another plot to stop SDSB from being overwhelmed in new people.

Ichneumon
2008-01-06, 01:10 PM
So I was saved.

Now, I too think that we have somewhat reached the limit of the number of players and I think someone should start a third plot before this plot, just like FFF, is getting crowded.

Bayar
2008-01-06, 01:24 PM
oh man, SDSB is starting to lok like FFF in the begining, with a lot of updates...but will refrain to join it...

And I think that the guys that are heading towards Fort Longcat are somewhat part of a third story line...

Edit: does someone happen to know where I can find some OOTs style avatars of anime characters ? need some practise with this...

Snatch's avatar is Yotsuaba, anime patron saint of E/b/aum's.

And I think that the guys that are heading towards Fort Longcat are somewhat part of a third story line...

It's ... well, a meta-storyline. To be honest, it's sort of angled at being a bridge between not two, but three storylines (yes, there's a mystery third one! Possibly.). People can always join, you just need to say you're in the Osprey's Hold of Holding.

As SDSB has had an influx of new characters, most people avoiding the "cluttered" FFF, and in doing so cluttering SDSB, would anyone join a new storyline if I were to start one? This would give people a chance to try new characters, without clogging up the existing storylines.

Well, it depends what sort of style you're aiming at.

SDSB is a fairly traditionally D&D setting, give or take a clone trooper, and is maybe Eberron to OOTS' Forgotten Realms.

Fat Fish Fury is much more damaging to the fourth wall, and is a little more cynical. It's also possibly the most arcane, labyrinthine thing that there is - its risen above its humble origins of being a MacGuffin hunt and become a vast, world-spanning event.
<gratuitious self promotion>
It's also got a secondary element, that sorta begun with the arrival of Mecha-Nightwing, and currently involves Fort Longcat. I'm personally hoping for it to be a potential means of linking the various plots together, into one that is, if not an entwined narrative, at least one where there are connections that can be moved across. There's also going to be some big events going down ...

I know this is a bit late, but I feel the influx of PC's and SDSB has brought a minor problem. Shades, Salmon, Yeril, Yoshi, and Undertaker, I don't mean to be rude, but you did overhaul the plot. Its called SORCERER DUDE Strikes Back. Hence, team evil should be Sorcerer Dude, and his minions. You've kind of messed this up... Also, SDSB and FFF are in the same world, just different parts.



Also, when I mentioned Ichneumon's gender, I was refering to Ichneumon IRL.

SDSB might take place in a Avaboy, but I think it should be an alternate reality so that there is minimal contradiction between the two.

Plus, there's that interdimensional thing with Fort Longcat that we could take advantage of.

Szilard
2008-01-07, 08:48 PM
I didn't even think of it as a campaign when I made sorcerer dude strikes back. I just happened to kill sorcerer dude, then the ABC clerics resurrected him. The origional team evil was me, Ichnuemon, Cleric B, and [email protected]. But an even eviler Sorcerer dude was trying to kill us, probably for revenge. So we were going to Merinas or medina (I keep forgeting) and then the Lich and the Rain king came in and then a big battle started, I'm fine with that. Shades of Grey and this Team evil didn't mess up the plot, they just made it better, SDSB barely had any action at all, and now it has more PCs.

If you didn't read all that, I said that Team Evil did not mess up the plot.

No one needs to get "integrated". I'm not sure what you're seeing about the latest few strips that's so horrible. You're citing you blowing up the citadel as precedent, whereas Salmon et all are just entering into the plot in a way you object to. These are not equivalent stories.

Although I might be able to see that the new people have made the plot of SDSB more complicated, I can not see how at this state they have "destroyed" the plot line or made the plot too complex. They just introduced their characters on a new, interesting and original way. The fact that we do not know who or what this team evil wants, does not mean they have no reason, or at least it does not mean they can't have a reason. A little bit of dephth also doesn't hurt SDSB and it certainly doesn't kill it. If everybody would make such a good character introduction as Samon and Undertaker we would not have any problem.

That would be the SDSB storyline. No-one but Salmon (And probably Undertaker) know who the Lich is, but the "two Yerils" thing is due to an illusion by Rangiramon. The Fear effect was of a duplicate appearing and cutting himself up, which you can imagine is something unbelievably horrific for most people. Obviously this is somewhat deteriorated by being in plain sight of the victim.

I'm sorry Squark, but saying that Salmon, myself and others have disrupted the plot is a bit much. When Salmon and I decided to join in SDSB we actually thought what our characters would do and how we'd not spin the plot upside-down to center it on us. We don't intend to become the be all and end all of the plot. Just consider us the Linear Guild to The Order of the Stick. Minor recurring villains.

They just introduced their characters on a new, interesting and original way. If everyone would do that, there will never be a problem.

Plot #3

Setting
Aeons before the current events of ABR, there were the (http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w118/kpenguin222/comic26.gif) Dragon (http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w118/kpenguin222/comic27.gif) Wars (http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w118/kpenguin222/comic28.gif). Ages before that though, the land of Avbaroy was a very different place.

Magic was a fledging force in these times, weak compared to human might, and technology ruled. Why conjure a Fireball using Bat Guano when you can incinerate your enemies using specially calibrated Microwave Weapons? Why use a Fly spell when you can use a Grav-pack? Magic still exists, and is gaining in popularity with those who cannot afford Technology, but the majority of the populace has little knowledge of it.

Plot
In one of the vast cities dotted about Avbaroy, the Merchant House of Haalu is in a state of anxiety. Their once great empire is crumbling, shareholders deserting like rats fleeing a sinking ship. This chain of events has been facilitated by the mysterious deaths of many of the houses principle heirs…


What d’ya think? As you can see, it’s a slight diverge from current ABR plotlines, with the technological focus, but also explains how many of the high tech items ended up in the fantasy land of Avbaroy.

Before we begin, I’d quite like a summary of characters, so I can make some Plot #3 templates, and we can get the starting heroes/villains planned out.

yeah Actually, I think the main plot needs some down time before it is picked up again. These side-stories are a nice change of pace. This took about half an hour. Most of it I stole (not copy/pasted) from Askairs' awesome Christmas one off appearances [read: the good parts]
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee83/Wolfman42666/MrNosferas.png

Mr Nosferas has been cutting deals and trading illegal equipment on the black market for several years now, I.E. things that make the homeland security board shudder at the ethical implication of producing. Such as spare parts: spare human parts, and electric and plague implants.

Having achieved a comfortable position in the black market he lets his customers come to him, preferring to stay in semi-saturated light- the kind his optics work best in.

Unfortunately his customers stopped coming mid-last week. Obviously this is bad for business. Ridley, his accountant in general thinks this has to do with house Haalu’s recent loss of heirs. Though he never says why Ridley is remarkably reliable when it comes to things like this.

Nosferas just doesn’t have time to look in to things, Point and shoot is his favourite pastime. He wields a semi-automatic handgun and a particle-projected knife.

If anything in there is plot disrupting I'll remove it Mr. New DM:smallbiggrin:

Not entirely true, that didn't happen until several years after the clone wars, after the Kaminoans bred an army to attempt to overthrow Imperial Control of their planet.


You MAY be thinking of the clone insurrections shortly before the clone wars, which featured Non-Fett clones made by someone else, which were thrown at the Republic by the "Clonemasters." (This was a retcon made to cover up Timothy Zahn's lack of knowledge of the Clone Wars when the Thrawn Trilogy was written. To be fair, the only people who knew what happened in the Clone Wars were people informed of it by Lucas himself, and they weren't talking.)


EDIT: Also, as the war went on, because of the lack of new genetic material, The quality of the new clones began to degrade, which has left questions as to wether or not alternate templates were used.

You should clarify the database for people who don't visit starwars.com and maybe give a link to wookieepedia ( www.starwars.wikia.com )

Not to mention the fact that Astral 32 is the only one with that color scheme (And that was only after Order 66.

Most notable of his possesions are those that are Covenant Alien Technowlegy, His weapon of choice is a Needler Shiny Homing Crystal Launcher, and he also carries a Jackal personal shield Laser Shield thingy and serveral Plasma Sticky Energy Grenades. Because of his use of this equiptment, he has on occasion found himself the target of a certian Spartan Trojan. Don't Sue

Anonymous. It does not forget; it does not forgive.

Or, perhaps, something went wrong somewhere along the line. Assuming the form of a certain paladin of ill repute, this mysterious, nameless figure is strange in her ways, but appears to have arrived in Avbaroy with some sort of Unfathomable Objective™ that, as confirming to Plot regulations, will remain vague and ill-defined until some sort of dramatic moment, and/or the immediate requirement of a Deus Ex Machina deployable to counter plot derailing/railroading.

Anon., as the above description might suggest, possess a greater awareness of the mechanisms behind the plot, and the mythical 'server' that sustains the universe upon which it runs. This results in an aptitude in the manipulation of many types of programming language, turning it directly into real, cel-shaded, objects, or modifying the environment. For example, she could make incarnate the phrase 'rm -rf', which -


OK, I used a different comic style, but I'm trying other stuff out at the moment. Possibly even some proper hand-drawn strips. See my avatar for the OotS version - she's effectively Miko with green skin and a sharp business suit. Also note - no visible eyes.

Grathnal
Grathnal an Orak Mercenary from a region of icy tundra known as the Grand Tusk, so named for the massive tusks that beasts of that region are known to have. Oraks are green skinned humanoids known for their mercenary forces. Oraks are dependable highly skilled soliders, however since invading their homeland isn't worth the effort most of their fighting experience comes from being mercenaries. Its not unusal to find a battle with Orak mercenaries fighting on both sides without hesitation. They stick to their contracts to the letter and never make another deal until their contract has expired, making them popular for use when there is a possibility that the employers have an enemy inside their organization.
Grathnal has been hired by House Haalu to help with the investigation.
http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w27/bloddyredcommie/flowRoot5362.png
Grathnal wears a thick green greatcoat and a combined helmet/gas mask at almost all times. Almost all Oraks wear similar clothing for warmth and to protect themselves in case they are stuck in a blizzad. Grathnals greatcoat is armored and underneath he wears a bodysuit that can regulate his temperature so he feels more comfortable. Though it looks somthing like an oxygen tank the pair of cylanders on his back are actually a duel-part backpack. Orak mercenaries keep their gear on at almost all times in order to prevent themselves from becoming too familiar with their employers.
The thing on his hand is not an arm attatchment Ala Samus, he's holding it, it's a "Iceshredder" multilaser, it's got a slow rate of fire but a lots of stopping power.
