The Graveyard Reanimated

[ti'esar]

With the permission of its original caretaker, Fawkes, I have decided to restart the Order of the Stick Graveyard, commemorating all those who have died over the course of the comic, the good and the evil, the lawful and the chaotic. As per the original thread, the deceased are listed in roughly chronological order.

This list is only partially updated, and I'd appreciate feedback on anything that is missing. Credit again belongs to Fawkes as the creator of the original.

The First Universe
"Millions of souls cried out in anguish, dying with prayers to impotent gods on their lips."
The inhabitants of the first universe created by the gods were all destroyed by the Snarl along with the Gods of the East, all within twenty-seven minutes. It's possible that this world may still exist, inside of the Snarl.

Beezlebuddy's Waitress

This sensitive cleric found himself on the tip of Belkar's knife.

The Sapphire Guard
"Oh Twelve Gods... what have I done?? Forgive me!"
Many paladins of the Sapphire Guard were killed by Xykon while defending Soon Kim's gate. Their ghosts arose immediately afterward to continue defending the gate alongside the ghosts of Soon Kim and, presumably, every other member of the Sapphire Guard who had previously died. The ghosts were then destroyed by Xykon and Redcloak, and will be unable to return, since the gate they were sworn to protect has been destroyed. The only known survivors are Hinjo, O-Chul, and Lien. It is unclear how many other members of the Sapphire Guard, if any, remain alive.

This group of hobgoblins in the ruins of Azure City were killed by Haley and the Resistance.

Black Squadron Wights
"Did-did that halfling just hit me in the face with a pineapple?"
Three of Tsukiko's wights were killed by Thanh and Belkar. Another was stabbed by Belkar, while a fifth was killed by Haley.

Isamu
"What?? Haley, are you nuts? It's a trap!"
Isamu of the Azure City Resistance was turned into a wight by the Black Squadron and then killed by Belkar.

Doubting Hobgoblin
“I dunno, he doesn’t really LOOK undead…”
This hobgoblin was killed by Belkar on the mountain path leading out of Azure City.

Solt Lorkyurg
“When you get to the crossroad, hang a left to go through the mountain pass.”
This unfortunate gnome was killed by Belkar for no good reason.

Sharkfood Hobgoblin
"Dead, definitely dead."
Despite not actually being a contestant, this hobgoblin lost at "Dead or Alive".

Great Mighty Bull
"think it happen around time tribe discover crate washed up on shore of hamburger buns and individually-wrapped cheese slices. but not sure."
No one seems to remember exactly why the Orc Tribe's sacred bull disappeared.

Vaarsuvius’ Greater Animal Messengers
“Their voyage cannot be deterred by any abjuration or illusion, I have seen to that.”
These three birds were killed and eaten by Haley, Belkar, and Mr. Scruffy.

Butterscotch Pudding Golem
“Wow, that butterscotch pudding golem was REALLY tough!”
This unusual monster was defeated by Haley, Belkar, and Celia as part of the Test of the Body.

The Oracle of Sunken Valley
"Yeah...I wasn't really buying those theories either...worth a shot tho..."
The Oracle was stabbed by Belkar as a self-fulfillment of Belkar's prophecy. The Oracle had planned ahead so that the murder would activate Belkar's Mark of Justice. He was revived shortly afterward, and it is implied that this is not the first time he has died, nor will it be the last.

The Oracle's Mother
"XP don't earn itself."
The Oracle's portly mother died at some point before Haley, Belkar, and Celia visited the Oracle.

Greysky Citizens
"Mah wife said this won't work at all - but if it does, ah'm thinkin' of bringin' her tomorrow night."
A number of residents of Greysky City were murdered before or during Celia's visit. This appears to be a common occurrence.

Grubwiggler's Monsters
"Raaarrrgh!"
One of Hieronymus Grubwiggler's golems walked straight off a broken bridge during Haley, Belkar, and Celia's escape. More were killed by Belkar, Haley, and the Thieves' Guild when they recaptured Roy's body. Grubwiggler's Mega-Golem was destroyed by Belkar via 'a spike in each brainpan.'

Pit Fiend
"Great, now I'm cursed. Mom was right, I am an embarrassment."
The pit fiend that Qarr summoned was petrified by Vaarsuvius.

Kubota’s Ninjas
"He's just knocked out - for now. Don't worry, you're about to join him."
Several ninjas sent to kill the Katos were instead killed by an angry pregnant Kazumi Kato. One more was killed by Therkla.

Kubota’s Samurai
"Maybe you're squeezing him too hard?"
The two samurai Kubota brought to the Katos' ship were killed by Elan and Therkla.

Therkla
"No thanks, then...I'll take my chances that the Afterlife...won't have any punishment worse...than not being with you."
Therkla tragically died in Elan's arms after being poisoned by her former friend Kubota. She was buried under a totally kickass headstone. Elan has since learned Neutralize Poison to prevent such a tragedy from recurring.

Daimyo Kubota
"Now come along, bring me before your master so that we may begin the Trial of the Century."
Kubota was disintegrated by Vaarsuvius after surrendering to Elan. Vaarsuvius used a Gust of Wind spell to scatter Kubota's ashes so he could not be revived.

Thieves' Guild Rogues
"Sure, but I don't see what that has to do with-"
At least seven members of the Thieves' Guild were killed by Haley, including Toby, George, and the Munez twins. Thirteen more (including Chuck) were killed by Belkar, with a little help from the cleric and Mr. Scruffy. Haley later killed seven more with her Bow of +5 Icy Burst, much to the dismay of Bozzok. Another eye-patched rogue was killed by Grubwiggler's Mega-Golem when they returned to retrieve Roy's body.

Old Blind Pete
"No! NO! I'm sorry! I'm sorry, it was all a-"
"Brainy Pete" was killed by an old friend he had betrayed. The cleric of Loki, egged on by Belkar, brutally bashed Pete's head in with a mace.

Meatballs
"You get a train over there, and you make them an aggro they can't refuse."
These people were apparently killed to garnish the Boss Monster's spaghetti.

Ganonron, Haera Bloodsoak, and Jephton the Unholy
"It was fun while it lasted."
These three epic magic users died at some point before Vaarsuvius met Lee, Nero, and Cedrik.

Choir of Dead Pedophiles
"Bunkus! Nonsuch! Gibberos! Gobbleygoos!"
Lee, Cedrik, and Nero keep these guys around to chant faux Latin during evil ascensions to power.

Ancient Black Dragon (and Extended Family)
"For a moment, I thought...I thought it has all been for nothing."
The mother dragon was unable to exact her revenge on Vaarsuvius's family. Instead, she was ripped apart when V shapechanged into a dragon from inside her stomach. V then reanimated her head in order to use Haerta Bloodsoak's customized Familicide spell, which, in an instant, killed every living creature that directly shared her bloodline. Vaaruvius estimated that the spell killed approximately one fourth of the black dragon population. His revenge fulfilled, Vaarsuvius then killed the dragon with one final Disintegration. This act ended up having quite a bit of unintended consequences.

The Draketooth Family
"your fault"
The family guarding the gate in the Windy Canyon was found dead under mysterious circumstances by the Order of the Stick. As it turns out, the family was descended from a black dragon, causing them to be affected by Vaarsuvius' Familicide spell. They were then raised as mummies by Malack and used to attack the Order of the Stick. Five were destroyed by Roy in the ensuing battle. The sixth was crushed by a pit trap and presumably destroyed by the explosion of Girard's Gate.

Giro
"I'll die before I tell you!"
Hieronymus Grubwiggler's assistant was killed by Crystal before Haley could get any information out of him.

Hieronymous Grubwiggler
"Call off your allies and we'll-"
Grubwiggler was killed by Crystal's Death Attack after Haley convinced him to stand down peacefully. Bozzok later had him raised.

Crystal
"You double-crossing whore, when Bozzok raises me-"
Crystal was finally killed by her rival Haley just before the Order left Greysky city. Haley ambushed Crystal after a shower and murdered her in her bedroom, taking her knife and magic items for herself. She was subsequently reanimated as a flesh golem retaining her self-awareness, but was ultimately dropped into a pit of lava by Haley.

Roy Golem
"Whoa."
The bone golem made from Roy's skeleton was crushed by Vaarsuvius so Roy could be resurrected.

Demon Roach
"HEY! Jailbreak! Helloooo, we have a jailbreak over- Ah, crap."
One of the Demon Roaches was killed by O-Chul during his escape from Xykon's stronghold. It's unclear whether the demon roaches are outsiders, so it may not have actually died.

Hobgoblin Patrol
"Liberation: Commencing."
A squad of five hogoblins was killed by Team Peregrine.

Hotshot Military "Geniuses"
"Within a year, most of them've been assassinated, or had their country steamrolled by THAT year's new conquerers."

Gladiators
"They used to have a MUCH scarier monster!"
Several gladiators in the Empire of Blood were killed by a bit of a dated reference.

Thog's Opponents

Penelope
"Not another one! When will they find a cure?!?"
Tarquin's ninth wife died of "mysterious circumstances" not long before the Order arrived at the Empire of Blood. As it turned out, her death was actually caused by Vaarsuvius's Familicide spell.

Somebody
"Wait, who do you consider a 'somebody'?"
Tarquin probably tortured somebody to death to get his Ring of Regeneration.

Wealthy Man
"I promise he only missed it for a few seconds."
The previous owner of Tarquin's magic carpet was killed by one of Tarquin's comrades.

Ball Pit Skeletons
"That was the best day EVER!!!"

The Free City of Doom was overrun by the Empire of Tears, with the aid of 500 of the Empire of Blood's dragoons. Among the dead were Captain Amun-Zora's husband.

Escaped Slaves

Thirty escaped slaves were killed by Tarquin's men and set on fire to spell out Elan's name in the mountains.

Ceruleaus and Vermillius

Tsukiko was killed by her own wights, at Redcloak's command.

Tsukiko's Wights
"No problem."

Durkon Thundershield
"I'm na worried aboot me anymore, see... na reallly... I get to go home."
The dwarven cleric Durkon was killed by his former friend, the vampire Malack. He subsequently rose as a vampire enthralled to Malack, though subsequent events revealed that not all was as it seemed.

Malack
"NERRRGHHALLL! SSAVE MEEE!"

Empire of Blood Soldiers
"What are you doing, you dumb-?"
Many human and lizardfolk soldiers of the Empire of Blood were killed after Tarquin ordered them to kill Roy, Belkar, and Durkon. Their fates included falling victim to Roy's Great Cleave, being killed after being dominated by Durkon, shot by Haley, and incinerated by Vaarsuvius. One soldier was killed by Belkar, who had earlier befriended his allosaurus "Bloodfeast the Extreme-inator"; Bloodfeast subsequently killed many more soldiers under Belkar's guidance. Many of the dead soldiers were Lawful Evil, and their souls wound up in the domain of Director Lee.

Dinosaur Cavalry
"...Show-off."
At least three of the Empire of Blood's dinosaur cavalry were killed by the Order, two by Roy and one by Haley and Vaarsuvius. In other instances, though, the Order specifically avoided killing the dinosaurs and only targeted their riders.

Empire of Sweat Soldiers
"Can we even be certain this 'Snarl' really exists?"
At least one soldier of the Empire of Sweat was impaled by the mass of writhing tendrils that erupted from Girard's Rift. It is possible this also unmade his soul, though given how little we truly know about the Snarl, this remains uncertain.

[littlebum2002]

Shouldn't "the graveyard, reanimated" only list undead?

[ti'esar]

Well, I was originally going to call it "The Graveyard Reborn", but this sounded better.

Question: should petrified characters be included? The original list did with some, but "technically, they're still alive."

[Snails]

I want to pick a pet nit...

We do not actually know Kraagor was killed, as the known witness(es) did not say as much. He was presumably trapped with the Snarl by the sealing spell, and presumed dead by his Scribble compatriots.

He should be on the graveyard list, obviously, but his is a special case that deserves precise wording. It is not merely because of the unknown nature of the Snarl, as with other presumed Snarl victims. It is a combination of questions of the both the sealing spell and the Snarl. If the sealing spell does what most of us think it does, then Kraagor's death was not witnessed by the Scribble.

[Lexible]

Four days before the forming of the Order of the Stick, Belkar murdered the guard on duty after a stray spell from the Wizard's Guild destroyed his prison cell.

In dungeon crawling fools, the implication seems to me to be that the one goblin that Xykon has left is Redcloak, there are no others at all. Saying that he has one left without specifying that it's Redcloak sort of suggests he has Redcloak plus one, and I believe that's mistaken.

Ninja Valedictorian
"I am salutatorian no more!"

[ChristianSt]

Is it worth including the previous valedictorian who was killed by Therkla's victim?

I don't think so:

First, Ninja School is kill-or-be-killed. That guy knew the score when he enrolled and probably did it to the guy ahead of him.

Emphasis mine. So it is possible that no death happened. I don't like to add speculation to the thread.

[Fawkes]

I want to pick a pet nit...

We do not actually know Kraagor was killed, as the known witness(es) did not say as much. He was presumably trapped with the Snarl by the sealing spell, and presumed dead by his Scribble compatriots.

If the sealing spell does what most of us think it does, then Kraagor's death was not witnessed by the Scribble.

Given his statue and the use of the word 'sacrifice', Kraagor's death is certainly implied, albeit not shown outright, and until Blackwing's viewing through the rift, there was no reason to think he might be alive.

I fully expect Kraagor's death to be revisited within the book, and the entry should be adjusted as soon as we receive more information, but I don't see any reason to adjust it until then.

Of course, I'll defer to ti'esar's judgment. He's in charge now.

[ti'esar]

Updated Crystal's entry with her new status.

Also, I should note for the record that I agreed with Fawkes re: Kraagor's entry. If and likely when new information about his death (or "death") emerges, I'll change it accordingly, but not until then.

It also explains his remark where he thanked Redcloak for the Resurrection; that wouldn't have been needed after he has impaled by O-Chul.

Added the flumphs as Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to the SSDT entry.

By the way, can someone who's gotten a copy of BRitF by now confirm whether there are any character deaths in the new material? No specific spoilers, just yes or no.

I do not believe there are. I will check again, to make sure. Thank you Giant for labeling where the bonus strips are!

Edit: Double-check complete. There are no new deaths in the bonus strips.

There's a short bonus scene after Thanh's death that shows Niu killing a third bearded devil before her escape.

The devil is not killed. While its throat is slit, you can see it attempting to report to Redcloak later, and being unsuccessful due to its inability to speak.

Given his statue and the use of the word 'sacrifice', Kraagor's death is certainly implied, albeit not shown outright, and until Blackwing's viewing through the rift, there was no reason to think he might be alive.

I fully expect Kraagor's death to be revisited within the book, and the entry should be adjusted as soon as we receive more information, but I don't see any reason to adjust it until then.

Of course, I'll defer to ti'esar's judgment. He's in charge now.

I've been re-reading Blood Runs in the Family, and I found something in comic 695. Girard says (to who he thinks is Soon) "It should have been you that died in that rift". So, the only witnesses to whatever actually happened to Kraagor definitely believe him to be dead.

Edited a few entries to reflect the information in the latest strip.
