Murphy's Law X: I Really Need To Post A Map
As it slowly but surely builds.
Hi! Welcome to the TENTH thread of Murphy's Law! As you can probably guess, this is an OOTS-style webcomic. It's comedic, yet with an ongoing, in-depth storyline. It starts out with a multiclass Fighter/Paladin named Lloyd Zephyr looking to organize an adventuring party, and quickly mushrooms from there into something much bigger...
So, yeah...Enjoy!

Re: Murphy's Law X: I Really Need To Post A Map
I love how the old thread literally tipped onto 51 pages on the last post.
Also don't listen to a WORD Super Dark says. He is insane from watching SAO.
A map would be very nice, especially as a player in a game set in this world. I reference places with no idea where they ARE.

Re: Murphy's Law X: I Really Need To Post A Map
Here's a little something for you to read, and maybe smile a little.
Spoiler: Respiratory chain songMine eyes have seen the glory of respiratory chains
In every mitochondrion, intrinsic to membranes
Functionally organized in complex subdomains
Where electrons flow along,
Glory, glory respiration! (three times)
Where electrons flow along.
Each chain is a mosaic of Complexes I to IV
Embedded in the lipid (which is what the lipid’s for)
But that is not sufficient, there are two components more
Where electrons flow along,
Glory, glory respiration! (three times)
Where electrons flow along.
The first is a small cytochrome that rolls around the place
That’s easily extractable from the cytoplasmic face
That restores respiration if you just add back a trace,
Where electrons flow along,
Glory, glory respiration! (three times)
Where electrons flow along.
The other’s a benzoquinone that is ubiquitous,
It floats around the lipid phase with hardly any fuss,
For mobile pooling function it’s become synonymous
Where electrons flow along,
Glory, glory respiration! (three times)
Where electrons flow along.
NADH to UQ’s the job of Complex I
It contains a single flavin–(and FMN is the one)
And all that non-heme iron can’t just be there for fun
Where electrons flow along,
Glory, glory respiration! (three times)
Where electrons flow along.
Succinate is oxidized by way of Complex II,
It starts off with FAD and it reduces Q,
And just to make it complex, it’s got non-heme iron too,
Where electrons flow along,
Glory, glory respiration! (three times)
Where electrons flow along.
From UQ through to cyto. c requires Complex III,
It’s got c1 and iron too and two species of b,
There’s an antimycin-binding site, core-proteins two or three,
Where electrons flow along,
Glory, glory respiration! (three times)
Where electrons flow along.
Finally to Complex IV where oxygen’s reduced,
Two coppers, a and a3 (which in yeast can be induced)
Fine end to the finest chain the Nature has produced,
Where electrons flow along,
Glory, glory respiration! (three times)
Where electrons flow along.

Re: Murphy's Law X: I Really Need To Post A Map
'Ello Guvnor.
What did I miss? So I am in Burma/Myanmar (they have a synanogue in Rangoon, which anyone barely noticed it until today). I don't plan to go there since I don't know the address (taking care of my grandfather, who had a stroke last year).
And plenty of household+ family friends went to Thailand (not me) for diagnosis and my mother decided to extend our trip due to grandmother's health problems.Badly drawn helmet avatar drawn by me.

I think Campaign Cartographer 3 is a good mapmaking program, although it is $40.

Re: Murphy's Law X: I Really Need To Post A Map
Is Lexington male or female? I know this information is probably floating around somewhere, but it seems sort of unclear to me which she is and can't find the answer anywhere I've looked.

Re: Murphy's Law X: I Really Need To Post A Map
I actually only found out Lexington was male yesterday, when I stumbled across this comic's TV Tropes page. Gotta, say, it put Lloyd's rejection of Janine in a whole different light after that. *sheepish grin*

Really? What kind of soundtrack would OotS have, then? And more on topic, are there any other good character theme songs for this?

Yes.
Well, there's Lloyd: The Oath
Janine: Janie's got a gun (TW: Child abuse)
Radic: Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Difficult one. I'm a metal guy, so I chose a metal song with environmental overtones.

Soundtrack for OotS? Given the opposition, I'd say it runs something like this.
