That was changed in later editions because it makes little sense to look MORE like your god/goddess as a punishment

And the only thing I could (or that ocurred to me at the moment) draw to make clear they were dressed as classic ballet dancers was a skirt, as the change of drawing to the legs to the one at the right would likely not be seen right.
(Now, I'm not American so I'm unaware of possible implications of the affirmation of "gays wear women clothes". Here that's not something one considers true, but has no other connotation. Maybe reminding one of Miguel Bosé and the skirts he wore as affirmation of his homosexuality, and encouragement of its acceptability, at the end of the eighties and start of the nineties)

Ok. I tend to overreact because I'm so afraid of making a mistake myself.

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
So are there any media that showed Drow like the one showed in Murphy's law, except Drowtales. Most D&D or fantasy show (including Drowtales and OOTS) Drow as either evil, jerkass, or civilized.

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
How you keep finding the Drow, wich hjave barely made any appearances in the comic at all, more interesting then say, the characters themsleves, i have no idea.
That said, as far as i'm aware murphy's law is the first one to have good-alinged swampdwelling Drow, though to be fair i dont think those in Drowtails really count as Evil, just non-human.

Murdering the outsider elves was pretty bad yeah, though i believe there was something in there about them not trusting outsiders and not wanting to endanger themselves by allowing them in. From their own point of view, those outsiders could be carrying diseases, they could leave the city and inform enemies of their location, or even breed with the local population and dilute the pure *Elf type here* Elf blood. I'm not sure, i take long bouts of not reading that comic to prevent me from catching up to the latest page.
As for the other thing, Their is nothing wrong with caste systems, if it works it works. again this boils down to "not human" society, just because they don't promote democracy and equality like we do does not make it wrong, just different.
Drows being jerk, well that's your opinion, and i can honestly understand where your coming from with that, they do have a tendency to shed a little more blood then necessary and betray one another at the most inopportune moments. Though again, it's their way and their culture, and from an outsider's point of view, it seems strange and likely wrong.
But anyways i think this is kind of getting offtopic. So how about them thar team gale? Sure are a windy group of acquaintances who work towards a mutual goal now ain't they? ...

What was their quest again?

By the way, t209, you might be interested in reading the Goblins webcomic.

Something stupid no doubt...
Unless he has some master plan to get out of being executed, which I wouldn't be surprised if he had.

Yeah, but nobody mentioned why I did that. :smallbiggrin:
T209, Team Gale isn't seeking out quests so much as being dragged into things way beyond their control. And I'm headed to college in a bit; wish me luck for this year!

You don't need luck, Little Squirrel. Haven't you realized that yet?

Well, I'm starting classes tomorrow, and the first is organic chemistry. :smalleek: I'm working on the comic bit by bit. So far, so good.

I just started my classes today as well. I wish us both the best of luck this semester.:smallsmile:

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
Not starting my classes for another two weeks. Woot. Though, I'm actually going back to school in a few days to begin marching band. This is debatably both worse and better than starting classes. On one hand, I get to spend a week and a half with some of my best friends before school starts. On the other hand, marching is very physically demanding. An average member of the marching band burns about as many calories as a football player over the course of a game.

Good luck Coffee. ^_^ Organic Chem is a difficult class, from what I've heard, but carbon-based organisms are nothing compared to figuring out what demons-posing-as-angels would say.:smallbiggrin:

I sortta kinda know that feel. Back in highschool I was part of the marching band though not in the way you expect. See I can't play any instrument to save my life and I certainly can't spin flag. No I was there as the tech guy. I got microphones onto the field and made sure everything went right during the show. (Things like extra sound effects, lower the pi mic during the ballad, turn off the solo mic when not in use, it needs to be higher for a flute solo than a trumpet one...) And the at the end I scamble with very little diginity to get it all off the field to avoid time penalties while the band marches proudly off. So while I didn't work as hard as they did per se, I did go to every practice, every show and got to watch them do their thing. Had to know the whole show by sound because if it was raining, me and my equipment were covered in an opaque tarp so that I couldn't see the band. Which is sad because they look so proud and powerful when they give it their all in the rain!
I also start my classes in two weeks, more like 1 and a half now.

With the comic, or the chemistry?

Chemistry. Organic Chemistry was one of my favorite subjects.

Re: Murphy's Law 8: College? What About It?
Yeah, Orgo was actually pretty interesting for me too. If I wasn't taking computer programming classes at the same time, it probably would have been my favorite class. One of the things I did to make my notes more interesting was to assign certain chemicals specific personalities. For instance, sodium borohydride was a regular soldier - just a normal guy who did as he was told, reducing your standard array of things, just being a good reducing agent. Grignards, in comparison, were soldiers who had gone a little bit off the deep end, reducing things like alchols that normal reducing agents wouldn't dare touch. DiBAL was a robotic super-soldier who went around reducing everything without hesitation or discrimination.
