Vengeance Rising, the comic

[Tulio d Bard]

Nietzsche, isn't it?

[Lix Lorn]

Does that mean nice?

[icastflare!]

yay down time between strips. anyway just wanted to tell you guys something. Things will be heading to a less funny zone and momentarily in to a super cereal zone. might be a while, but its coming. It isnt all giggles grins, and whatever expressions golems can use.

[Lix Lorn]

DunDunDUN.

(Eagerly awaits)

I completely like this comic. I do, however, really want that guy in the next to the tiefling to be a major character. Is he going to fill the role Redcloak filled in the early comics, as just that random spell-caster with the villain, and has no name?

[icastflare!]

I want the nameless person to be central, but I am having a hard time giving him a name. First choice is saint anger. I will now claim my metallica fan badge

Do what I do when I need to come up with names. Smash a bunch of keys, and work with it. For example:

*Twitches fingers, pressing any key he can reach*

This is our starting group. Lets see what we have here....

Danihijsca
Lets remove the "," and add some vowels, remove some letters we don’t like, and capitalize the first letter.

Danjsicah: Dan-j-sickah
Clean it up a bit and say it aloud to work on pronunciation.

Dasikah: Dah-sickah
Clean it up a tad more, remove what we don’t like, edit, ETC. and you have a perfectly good name. Don’t like it? Tap some more keys and try again!

optional:
add some punctuaition to add veriety. I.E.
Da'sikah: Dah-shickah

[Lix Lorn]

The punctuation is tacky. Otherwise, surprisingly good plan. XD

[icastflare!]

hey guys, wondering where the new comic is. well there have been some delays, including my own short horror story called "The Eyes Of Vith'ir. Was thinking about posting it here or somewhere else to sate your everconsuming appetite.

[CrimsonAngel]

I was thinking Bob for the hooded guy. >.<

[icastflare!]

yay for genericness. were their bobs in the dark ages,any?

[Szilard]

There were probably Roberts.

[CrimsonAngel]

Here, look at this while I work slowly on the comic.

Did that work?

[Meirnon]

Blatant, unrelated fan service for microphiliacs and xenophiliacs? I think that this works for the meantime.

May I suggest a warforged in the middle of a burlesque routine for the next one, with big, pink-feathers.

[CrimsonAngel]

What's Burlesque?...

Actualy, i'm a little scared to find out.

[MethosH]

Did that work?

SWEET MOTHER OF... MY EYES!!!

[Lix Lorn]

(Still distracted by the first one)
Pretteh... @_@

[icastflare!]

crimson now has my praise and I am afraid of him.

[Lix Lorn]

Heeheehee. XD

[Dogmantra]

Nekkid!

Did that work?

Is it wrong that I find this one hotter?

[Lix Lorn]

No, but you might want to look at the third link on my signature.

[Dogmantra]

Been there, done that, T-Shirt is on hold though.

[Lix Lorn]

...I wanna t-shirt.

Work faster!
...Or more fanservice.

[icastflare!]

our system for making comics involves me sending crimson scripts and sometimes he completes them or draws fanservice. We dont have 10 issues out yet and we have 2 articles of fanservice. what does that say about this comic?

[Lix Lorn]

One/both of you are slightly perverted?

[icastflare!]

Probably

though to tell the truth, I did not tell him we should have fan-service. That was his marvelous idea.

just a quick survey: How many of you would like to learn about the world itself? I probably will put in articles so you get to know the world itself.

[Lix Lorn]

Sure. ^_^ Ten! Is a magic number~

[icastflare!]

alright here is something I whipped up. It explains a race in my world. Some details like the great betrayel will be explained eventually.

now here is my little piece of work

Spoiler

In the northern wastes lay demons and other horrible abominations. One of the most blood thirsty is the Fel Orc. During the great betrayal, many orcs became tainted. Slowly they started to turn slowly toward violence, more so than regular orcs. Their skin turned to a dark red. They saw no logic, only fury.

The Fel orcs are known for intimidation more than strength. While a regular orc might kill a victim on sight, a Fel orc might take it back to his home and torture the victim. They have been known to worship demons, though most is directed towards the god of Fel orcs, Tekugvon.

The Clerics of Tekugvon are known for leading raids against humans, elves, and dwarves. The blood is collected and half is given to their patron god, and half goes to Skamos. This is for Skamos’s act in the great betrayal. He is as much a key part in the existence of Fel orcs as Tekugvon, though some fanatics do not want to admit it.

Fel orc society is based off of power and fear. The Chieftain will often have to deal with people taking his spot in society with weapon in hand, and a spear for holding the losers head on a stick. Villages will often break up over a simple issue. The break up is always violent.

Few towns survive more than 40 years. If they do they are an official Fel orc city, and are most structured. Guards will watch over the streets, and wars for power normally become less frequent. Once a city is established, Fel orcs from destroyed towns will start flocking there.

The most powerful city is known as Gravilug. It is ruled by Slagworth, an experienced chieftain. About 5,000 fels reside in the city + the 3,000 slaves. It is on top of a remote mountain. The guard has about 700 orcs and 200 slave lookouts. The reason for the large number of guards is counter raids. Many have laid siege or tried to destroy the city. They need as many people with weapons on hand as they can in those moments.
