Did you think it was God who kept those candles burning for eight days?

I'm so sorry i couldn't resist please forgive me

**Asta Kask** · 2014-12-21, 01:57 PM (ISO 8601)

Anyway, sorry for derailing this into possibly dangerous territory.

**Draconi Redfir** · 2014-12-21, 02:08 PM (ISO 8601)

right. i could practically feel Tinder's wings streaching out for the first time in so long, though i suppose he always had them, just probably smaller.

And now I want a Cthulhu menorah... this is a bad bad plan.

That is more Krakeny, I was thinking the tentacles rising up and a candle on each one and the shamash would be on his head.

I'm afraid it's the best Google was willing to offer.

It's okay, I am secular and don't celebrate the holidays anyway.

Well does chuthlu have 8 tentacles like octopi?

What did you all think of this comic? I struggled with the dialogue on this one.

As far as I know there is no set number for C'thulu's tentacle, each artist going with what they think is best.

As for the dialogue, it was a bit heavy handed IMO, however it does fits Tinder's characterization and I found it was a nice reminder of his Draconic nature, it has been so long since we saw his true form that I all but forgot he IS a Dragon.

Also the last two panels are awesome, don't worry Tinder you will grow into becoming ~~fire~~ Acid and Death.

**Lord Of Mantas** · 2014-12-21, 05:10 PM (ISO 8601)

I thought the comic was a lovely little moment of introspection. The parts where Tinder indulged his draconic nature were quite funny.

Because if they had seen him... well I doubt they would be sane enough to create.

**Silverraptor** · 2014-12-22, 12:32 AM (ISO 8601)

I really liked seeing more tinder in this comic, especially in his dragon form. And Tinder does seem like he has a pretty big wisdom score. Might have acquired that after seeing his family killed, but its nice to see.

...Especially with the half-elf of the group on the opposite side of the spectrum.

**goto124** · 2014-12-22, 11:25 PM (ISO 8601)

'And don't say no- a dragon is telling you to sit on a hoard with him. That's a big deal.'

Why would Tinder directly say that though? I'm not sure what that reveals about his character

**Dusk Eclipse** · 2014-12-22, 11:56 PM (ISO 8601)

I think the idea is that Tinder cares and respects Loyd enough that he is willing to let him sit in the hoard which is a dragon's most treasured and personal possession (even if this isn't his own hoard

)

And that Tinder saying it out loud is just to let the readers know about this? Or is it something deeper?

Yeah, I'd assume it's just meant to be a dragon possessiveness - or more precisely, the significance of ignoring it - thing.

That's third dragon base.

**CoffeeIncluded** · 2014-12-24, 12:59 PM (ISO 8601)

Yeah, that's basically it. Letting a human sit on a hoard is a big deal for a dragon, and Tinder knew that Lloyd would protest (especially since the mound of gold is the king's), so he preempted whatever comment Lloyd might make with an explanation.

**Asta Kask** · 2014-12-25, 09:03 AM (ISO 8601)

It's like a nerd allowing you to touch his action figures, or DVD collection.

Ah, that explains it. It goes to show their closeness- how well they know and trust each other.

**MatrixStone93** · 2014-12-25, 06:20 PM (ISO 8601)

Hi. This is a good comic. I like how it's deep, and the paladin isn't Lawful Stupid. And how it'd still be cool even if it wasn't stick figures.

1. What do you use to draw this? Tools, programs, ect.
2. Who is your favourite character?

Never ask a parent to say which child is the favourite. It can only lead to tears.

**CoffeeIncluded** · 2014-12-31, 12:21 AM (ISO 8601)

Exactly, why do you think it's taken me so long to reply? But if I really had to say, I'd have to answer...Serrin, Matt, and Radic. But it's really close. And please don't ask me to pick between the three.

I'm working on an update now--I don't know if it'll be up before the New Year but I'll do my best. Night everyone!

I think he already had a high wisdom score, which is probably part of the reason why he handled their deaths so well. If he had a low score, I'm pretty sure watching his family being murdered in broad daylight for reasons he probably could not comprehend at the time would have pushed him over the edge.

**Hiro Protagonest** · 2015-01-02, 05:44 PM (ISO 8601)

Hm... does Tinder still have to eat as much in his human form as his dragon form?

Dragon's lifehack.

**CoffeeIncluded** · 2015-01-03, 10:10 AM (ISO 8601)

He doesn't have to eat as much, but still a lot.

Also, sorry about the lack of updates. The library had a free book giveaway yesterday so I got about 20-30 books (my dad and brother got some too), and I'm currently reading. Also I'm going to hear back from some vet schools soon so I'm really nervous.

I should be able to update tonight or tomorrow though.

Well, I'd assume it would be total energy from activities as dragon + total energy from activities as human, and the equivalent for other nutrients.
