Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
So that you know, I wasn't being serious about that "likes Lloyd specially" thing. I really should have put "ironic" tags around it.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
I gotta say Coffee, I love the depth you give these characters. There's are just dime-a-dozen adventurers. They actually have backgrounds, quirks, and flaws. You offer hints and glimpses into their minds and what makes them tick. You don't just offer a massive hunk of plot exposition at once, and when you did with Tinder, it was awesomely done.
Overall, I just enjoy this comic, but its the characters that really make it shine.Anemoia: Nostalgia for a time you've never known.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Thank you.
I'm especially pleased you noticed that because that was a major thing I was aiming for--Distinct, individual, realistic characters that are far from being Mary-sues or a generic guy with a sword--They're wonderfully flawed. They've got their good things about them, and their bad things about them. Each character has a different back story that, combined with some inherent personality, has shaped his/her development and outlook on life in different ways--And not always for the better. The characters have their problems, a bit too overconfident, a bit too hesitant to see the truth. Take Janine. For all the comedy it's worth, her views on romance and relationships and sex in general are very unhealthy. And Radic lets it slide because it's linked to Janine's past. At the same time, Radic has a somewhat unhealthy view of romantic relationships, though not to the same degree as Janine has. (I'll elaborate when the time comes.)
Furthermore, all the characters will grow and change during this story; some more than others, all in different ways. And some of them already started this story in a metamorphosis. Some characters have yet to develop and change, while others are already in flux. Matt hasn't really changed much from his youth, while the Lloyd of just five years ago is vastly different from the Lloyd in the present day. And they'll continue to grow and change, until by the end of the comic, all these characters will have grown so much as people; I suppose I will have too.
In any case, I hope all of you continue to accompany me on this journey.My webcomic!

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Indeed.
Wait, Janine's obsession with Lloyd is based off of background-related flaws, not just her own personal perversions? Interesting... Plot twists abound!Anemoia: Nostalgia for a time you've never known.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Last page must have been really painful then.
So, Janine has Lloyd in her sights. And Matt is going to make an attempt for Radic. But what about Tinder? Where will he go for love and comfort?
Oh, right. He can shapechange. So he can take Remus for long, romantic walks.Avatar by CoffeeIncluded

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
The psych AP was MUCH easier, and tomorrow's will be smooth sailing (Other than hand cramping from writing 3 essays).
But you know what's fun? Because APs take up so much of the school day, I've had hardly any homework!
SO! I might be able to post TWO updates of Murphy's Law this week!
And...DRUMROLL PLEASE...Here's the first one!!!

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
I think Matt is just an Elf-lover who can't his face his true nature. He needs to come out of the closet.
Also, doesn't Janine recover a little too quickly from the "Orc thing" being mentioned? The last time we saw it, it caused a minor mental breakdown...Last edited by Asta Kask; 2010-05-11 at 02:26 PM.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Hah! Poor Matt.
And poor Tinder, almost everyone is out to get him because of his species.
Dear lords, what did Matt do to get himself hurt that badly?
Did he walk into the traps on purpose or something?
Or did the elf push him into the traps so Matt would take all the hits while the elf get's by unharmed?
...Did you change your avatar Coffee?

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
I leave my computer for a little while to go for a walk (and to buy chocolate) and when I come back, there's a new update to cheer up my day!
Hmm...Tobeem seems to be a very cold country, ah, I like the place already. (That last panel is from there, right?)
And I like the detail that you draw the long sleeves on Matt.
So, is that what sprouted his elf-hate or is it just an example?
Oh, and my guess is that the last party member will be a female elf with angsty personality and inferiority complex. Just because it's the exact opposite of Matt's descriptionAlamryn Kven, a druid who tries very hard not to be useless.
Celesta Halla, a fearless barbarian.
Jheren Falconer, a drifter ranger.
