Hint: The Gollum-like word usage occurs in the course of a character telling a story (or perhaps a joke... what's going on in this scene is not perfectly clear to me).

If that's correct, then:
Find Haley's bow with the string broken.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
I'm a little to respond slow here, but I wanted to confirm that, yes, that is what I was looking for.
With respect to the current question, how angry are we talking? Blackwing has angry eyebrows in the current strip (panel 7). Are you looking for something angrier than that?Last edited by rgrekejin; 2012-06-28 at 06:40 PM.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
How about this one?
The panel where he's chasing Mr. Scruffy around. He looks pretty angry in that one.

Oh! There isn't a new question yet, is there? Okay then...
Show me visual evidence of a critical hit.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
I'd make a case for Malack's Harm spell used on an unhurt Nale. Not only is the hit especially powerful (more so than, say, his fireball later on that hits but barely fazes Belkar), it shows an additional shade of black in the spell aura, which seems to be quite rare. Other instances of touch-spells from characters with black spell auras, even very powerful ones, show only a single shade of black when the spell hits. This could indeed be visual evidence of that 'extra d6', as it were. And, as with any good critical hit, the recipient show a measure of surprise when he actually survives it...
So, if you agree... Find three real-world product placements—parodies like Sanguine Ave and quirky misspellings like Teevo don’t count. (Apologies if something like this has been asked recently -- I've been away from the boards for a while!)At least now I can get back to enjoying my glass of elven wine in peace and quiet, without being called on to intervene in someone else's problems.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
I invite people to try and answer your question, as it seems to be a good one, but no. In the example that I'm thinking of, something specific happens that only happens on a critical hit, and at no other time. You know for sure it's a crit without having to bring in any other evidence.
...although now that I think about it, my question requires some reasonably specific knowledge of DnD rules on the part of those trying to answer it. Is that beyond the purview of the quiz game?Last edited by rgrekejin; 2012-06-28 at 09:31 PM.

...okay, we have too many questions going at once right now. Fortunately, this one I can do.
Magic on. Magic off.
Not OQ. Answer some of the other ones.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
Well, here's Diet Coke. So that's one.
Here are the 4th edition DnD books. So that's two. I won't count Redcloak's 3rd edition books, since "Real-world DnD books" can probably count as just one thing.
How about the Visa and Mastercard logos? Do those count as products?
Do titles of posts count, or does it have to actually appear or be mentioned in panel?Last edited by rgrekejin; 2012-06-28 at 10:07 PM.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
I'd only count products that appear in panel, even when they're not discussed specifically (like the credit card logos). All those are good, though only one was one I was thinking of! Now, clue me in (again, coming back after a while) -- the rules are still that anything that answers the question satisfactorily is fine, even if it's not the specific instance that the asker has in mind? In any case, these are all legit. If anyone's looking for bonus points, there are at least two more... if not, carry on!

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
Yup, those are pretty much the rules! I'll keep looking for things, but I'd like to repost my original question, so people don't have to scroll back up to find it:
Show me visual evidence of a critical hit. It is not in any way ambiguous that a crit has occurred, but it does require knowing a little something about how a certain magic item works, in-game.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
...you know, I could swear there was a post here with a link to Monopoly just a second ago. Maybe it's the boards updating. Maybe I'm losing my mind.

Vorpal Sword severs heads on a critical hit, right?

Edit - I deleted the Monopoly answer, cause it was so out of date and ninja'd.
Didn't know anyone had seen it. Never mind.Last edited by Ron Miel; 2012-06-28 at 10:13 PM.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
find someone saying "Praise Loki!" (yes, the quotation marks mean using exactly those words)

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
how about a druid? Zykon once described them as hippies, and its not that unfair a description.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
But where is Xykon calling him hippie?
Guess what spell I cast before posting this message.
