Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
Who knew giant death-worms could see through invisibility? Also, glad the Order is here; the action is about to begin again!

And things are about to begin, oh boy. Really curious how this is going to go down.

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
First off, that's pretty smart for a giant death-worm.
Second, I was just thinking that about Invisibility!Last edited by HUMVEE Driver; 2019-03-18 at 01:15 PM.

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
For me, that's a bit more of a "waitwaitwait, what?". That worm doesn't have any eyes, so how is it that it can see at all? And in any other context, I could see it picking up on intruders via Tremorsense, but then, it wouldn't pick up anything that's not on the ground (nor would it recognize that said adventurers are invisible if it did).
*sighs* I know, I know, magic, but it still seems like some balls were dropped here. (Not like that, wow that came out wrong.)

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
Oh look, it's the members of the party that the Vamps should be less worried about that got detected. Pay attention to them, blood suckers, and not the clerics, or the guy with the seriously anti undead sword.
Tactics, in my OOTS? It's more likely than you thinkI gave up fighting, and stabbing and bludgeoning and stealing and bar-brawls and wenches . . . and it was the worst 10 rounds of my life - Jerry the Country & Western Bard.

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
I think this is the first time I have actually been on the site when a new comic got posted. I love the kind of awkward giant death worm, especially since I expected it to be non-sentient.

A story of the exact wrong way to run a campaign.
The best thread derailment of all time.

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
I see why BW's offended. Ravens are both larger and smarter then crows, no mean feat given that crows are already one of the smartest animals in the world.

I guess the nightcrawler is going to eat crow, then?

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
Interesting - black background, but not white text. Maybe because it's Extraplanar Undead rather than regular Undead?

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
I also read Blackwing as confused. He's looking around as well.

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
It took me a moment to realize Blackwing was looking for the invisible crow because he's a Raven, and not just because he's oblivious.

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
Not sure who is funnier, Blackwing or the Death Worm.
Also, calm down Exarch, you're lucky the summoned help does ask for clarification.
More often than not they're far less accommodating.
Seriously, poor Wormy just wants to be as helpful as a Death Worm can be and the new boss acts like a total jerk.
The Order should totally adopt the poor dear."If it lives it can be killed.
If it is dead it can be eaten."

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
May also be a defense response.
Crows can be ********s."Ok, trees. We are about to go into a dungeon--hey, Twigs, you paying attention?--ok, so stay out here, and if we come running out of there with a hoard of monsters behind us you're going to go all Harry Potter on them as if they were cars. No, Itchy-Bark, it's a reference. Ever heard of breaking character? *Sigh* Just stay here and kill things that chase us out. Make like a tree and... stay."

Re: OOTS #1159 - The Discussion Thread
At will see invisibility: Nightcrawlers would be a fine watch worm if one can afford one.
Back and forth between Exarch and nightcrawler: fun (was primed for Monty Python swamp castle guards sketch after the first few panels, but Rich didn't go there, good job)
Haley's frustration with invisibility being dispelled: lesson learned (Guessing it came from one of her wands?)
Exarch with spell prepared: sorta like V's Bugsby-cat spells
V's explanation: to help all of the non-D&D playing people who like the strip.
All in all, nice one, thank you Giant.

Maybe, but I think he's more directly confrontational when he's indignant.
