OOTS Polls (feat. Favourite NPC Tournament)

[The Pilgrim]

No. In fact, I expect next time we see her, she will have an IFCC hand all upon her arse*

And one for Redcloak.


*as in, being a puppet, not what you are thinking, you pervert.

[Cuthalion]

Hinjo
Yes, if only at the very end.

[zimmerwald1915]

#853 - The Dangers of Progress
Will Vaarsuvius rejoin the party before the battle for Girard's Gate is decided? Yes or No?

Yes, and her actions upon her return will be even more instrumental to the destruction of Girard's Gate than they have been up to this point.

Round 2, Match 1
"There can only be one rational response to that. Hold her until you drain the life from her. Then devour her corpse."

VS

"Well, that ends now. My uncle may have kept his junk to himself, but my junk will be for the people!"

At this point, I'm just going to state flat out that it's "anyone but " for me. Can't get over his politics.

[ThomasMink]

Gonna have to say yes.

Redcloak is my favorite villain in the comic. Nothing against Hinjo though.

[MeanMrsMustard]

Yes, though I don't have any real reasons, just what my gut says. But I think V will still be on the Order's side.
And Redcloak, because even though I love Hinjo (and his junk), I think Redcloak is a better character. (Depth-wise, not morality-wise. Duh.)

I have now added rules for the process of choosing your favourite NPC, and posting their name and/or smiley in this thread. The rules are in the OP, and basically consist of choosing your favourite NPC, and posting their name and/or smiley in this thread. I'm glad to be a guiding beacon of light for all of you.

(Also, how could you vote off Mr. Scruffy? Belkar is coming for all of you.)

Yes

Thumbs up for those who wanted hinjo and niuh shipping.

[Mike Havran]

No. V may play an important part in the battle of the Gate, but I don't think she will rejoin the Order before that.

I like Hinjo very much, but I have to give it to , this guy is pure badass.

[Vulkos]

Yes.
Redcloak.

[Bulldog Psion]

Yes.

After that scene with Tsukiko, he radiates some of the most concentrated, ruthless, relentless menace and force of personality in the comic from my perspective at least. "Dude is frickin' scary."

[Lycunadari]

Yes.

[Zar Peter]

Yes

Redcloak, Hinjo is a minor character (at least till now), Redcloak is one of the main villains.

[Smolder]

Yes.

Few other characters in the story elicit such a range of emotions. Particularly moving was his epiphany at the battle for Azure City and subsequent founding of Gobbotopia.

[Emperordaniel]

Yes and .

[JaaSwb]

Yes.

Redcloak all the way.

[Kalrany]

Yes. But in what capasity? That will be interesting.

Redcloak, the guy you love to hate.

Sorry Hinjo, but Team Evil is a more compelling story. Maybe that can change in the future if you get more screen time, but it has not happend yet.

[Ted The Bug]

Yes. And I'm looking forward to it!
These are two of my favourite characters for radically different reasons...gotta go with tho. Dat backstory.

[ArkenBrony]

Yes, he has to, or else they won't have a true Oots vs linear guild match-up

[Snippy]

Yes.

Redcloak.

Dreading the Xykon vs Tarquin matchup.

[Meph]

Yes, but not before the arrival of Team Evil.
Redcloack, both for I like him and for I hate Hinjo quite much.

Dreading the Xykon vs Tarquin matchup.

Me too.

[Gift Jeraff]

I hope it's Tarquin vs. O-Chul this round so we can get the 1 of the 2 most overrated characters out now, rather than have the last round inevitably be between them...

#853 - The Dangers of Progress

Yes: 22 - 88.00%
No: 3 - 12.00%

Round 2, Match 1
: 19 - 82.61%
: 4 - 17.39%

#854 - Not Much Chance of That
If it comes to it, which side will Tarquin ultimately choose? Malack or Nale?

Round 2, Match 2
"I tell you, Ugly, nothing's funnier than false hope. You really thought you had a chance there for a second. I mean, sure, I could've just blasted you all from above with fire and lightning and such, but I've always felt that when it's important, it's worth it to go that extra mile."

VS

"My men had to get out to the mountains, recapture them, nail them into position, and then get the oil out there in time to light the rebellious little pricks on fire in unison. It's pretty impressive logistics-wise, when you think about it."

Malack
and (What kind of Tarquin do you want? Gibbed or Rotted Crispy.)

[Gift Jeraff]

Xykon >>>>>>>>>>> Tarquin

[ti'esar]

I honestly have to pass on the question, because I think it's going to depend on what Nale does more than anything else.

As for the NPC Tournament: I saw this one coming, and am going to say Xykon.

[Meph]

Definitely Malack' side, if Nale won't get a pair of things out. But it has been shown that Nale has no wisdom score high enough to be expected doing this.

It's a pain to decide between the lovely lich and the god of risiko. But, even within my deep lawful being, I love Xykon the most.

[Snippy]

I have to go with Malack.

And... Xykon. But only just.

[Rorrik]

Oh, he'd definitely side with Malack, I think. For one, he can trust Malack with the gate, and for two, he can trust Nale to screw up any dramatic betrayal over the gate if given the chance.

Ugh, something deep within me says Tarquin. There's something about him and I see him edging in on Xykon's turf as lead bad guy of the comic.

[Mike Havran]

Malack, definitely. Tarquin himself says he has only one remaining son. He doesn't give a damn about Nale anymore, not until he manages to do something really impressive, which I doubt will happen.

And Tarquin, for that matter. Xykon has gone stale. Despite Tarquin is a minor villain in comparison, he has got some depth. Xykon is just a cool-speaking monster without any kind of deeper motivation other than carrying the card of scenery-chewing villain.

[Elfinor]

Malack, definitely. Tarquin himself says he has only one remaining son.

He thought Nale was dead at the time, though.

Nonetheless, I agree with your answer: Malack

And for the second question: I'm very fond of both. But Tarquin, for a multitude of reasons.
