    I'm often reminded of a certain piece by Tenacious D, where they sing an F-bomb together in a very appropriate situation. One thing is sure: mister masked alcoholic is not a delicate man.

    Elagune, I am utterly terrified and horrified of a villain who mixes some of the worst evils possible with the manipulation of death and the manipulation of minds together. ._.

    Well done.

    Now off to flee in terror and keeping my mind-index from Psychosophers!

    Was the Psychosophy mentioned earlier? Or is it new?

    Either way, I enjoy the twist.

    I'm really glad that Casper's being received so well. His character design was too interesting not to use, and I hope I'm doing his character justice with my writing so far.

    I'm still wondering about this one. Also, I like how the lack of trust is played out. But a mini-quest with another serial killer doesn't sound exciting yet.

    You mean the Brain Drain miracle that Casper used on Dalton? The card clearly had a psychosophy glyph on it, and the effects are mental in nature.

    As for the other killings, I assume they tie into the Kings somehow.

    I mean there was a special page which listed and described the different miracle catagories. Was psychosophy listed?

    The existence of Pyschosophy was mentioned in the 'kinds of thaumaturgy' omake page for Chapter 1. The fact that somebody is going around murdering people with it is new, tho; we haven't been introduced to a Psychosopher character yet. At least, not that we know about.

    Edit: Oh, hey, I forgot Casper had used that to debrief his minion. Welp. That's kind of frightening.

    I like it in that the police characters are actually acting like police should. They recognize that Nomen clearly has the means to pull this stuff off and could very well be their killer (no motive or opportunity that they know of though) but the suspicion is apparently well-founded.

    Yup! A good cop knows, that everyone is guilty of something - you just need to find out, what it is.

    The cop doesn't have to find out what someone is guilty of. That's the job of the judge or detective. The cop just needs to know that the streets will be safer once everybody is behind bars.

    Speaking of that page... something odd struck me. All of the elements have four listed aspects. Except Lycosophy and Photosophy, which have 5. Why are they special? And how so?

    And what exactly are the patrons of the elements?

    Pyrosophy, Hydrosophy and Geosophy have 5 listed aspects as well and Astraosophy has 3. I don't think it's significant.

    It is, but you have to take a statistically significant random sample.

    ...He goes shopping in that outfit? And the police haven't caught him yet? How does that even... Could people that dress like that possibly be common on some parts of Vagas we haven't seen? No one seems to be giving him any odd glances...

    Also, he has seen Wendy and Nomen together before...

    I wish you were right, but I fear you might not.

    As for the outstanding outfit, I don't think anyone except the police knows him and even they had to check their wanted list. Besides, I haven't seen anyone patroling the streats in Vagas.
