Order of the Stick: November II

[Chlodwig]

'Craft: Disturbing mental Image' is something really fitting as a craft skill for Belkar. :)
Much more worthwile to take compared to useless stuff like 'Spot' :)

[JessmanCA]

What is next for the belt?

I see Durkon clenching it pretty tightly in those last five panels.

[maxon]

awww

Damn - I was looking forward to Roy being a girl for a bit.

[Shatteredtower]

Anyone can cheat. The fun of it is figuring it out all on your own.

Speak for yourself. I don't do cryptograms in my spare time, so I'm hardly going to start just to read this comic. I'll wait for others to have their fun and rush to submit the results for the rest of the class. ;)

And for the record, it's not like Roy was ever unable to write his name in the snow. At least two women of my acquaintance have proven that.

(Yes, yes, I'm sure that's more than you wanted to know. So I know a few women, big deal...)

[Amalthea]

And now the genderbending belt is resolved. I'm a little sad, I was looking forward to a short sidequest. Oh well, we still have Haley's hysterical aphasia.

Any takers for "Maybe you're right..."? It would map both 'h' and 'p' to 'y', but it would work. At least "pid'cq" should be "you're".

Exept it's Craft Disturbing Mental Image, so it is a feat, like Belkar said.

Oh, my fault but even better. :)

[Flak_Razorwill]

Well, that was easy. Thanks for the quick undo, Giant!

EDIT: I was expecting more of a bind in the aftermath of the hotel splodey, but I like normal Roy.

Any takers for "rthfq pid'cq ckmaz"

(i deleted the translation and spoilers because i didn't think the colors would match the "quote" background)

giant said, he doesn't have to follow any rules, he is writing this, therefore he has ultimate power over how it written. i got the same translation as you

[Particle_Man]

??? Since when has Belkar *ever* felt guilty about *anything*?

She was equally nasty about Roy's transformation before she lost her language. Yes, she does have a mean streak--and, unlike Roy and Vaarsuvius (and hey, even Belkar!) we've never seen her feel really guilty about anything.

[Theo]

While I'm perfectly happy to see Roy a male again, I have to wonder if we'll ever know how V saw Roy?

Did he know? Did he not know?

[Wrecan]

??? Since when has Belkar *ever* felt guilty about *anything*?

When V casts Crushing Despair on him.

How can they even aim?

[Freeman333]

I can answer that question, but not on a PG board. So, sorry, you'll just have to use your imagination. (If you're close to levelling, taking Craft Disturbing Mental Image as your next feat might help you.)

[zibeck]

??? Since when has Belkar *ever* felt guilty about *anything*?

Belkar has felt guilty plenty of times...about NOT killing people.

[deathbyhokie]

I got the same translation as the others for what haley said. If not for the apostrophe though, i would've been lost.

[sniffles]

ROTFLMAO!!
Oh... my... gawd! LOL

The scary thing is, I think my fiancee has taken Craft Disturbing Mental Image. It must stack, because I'm pretty sure he's taken it more than once. ;D

[rowe]

I had forgotten that Roy actually *was* a woman instead of just dressed up like one!

Love the 'alone' joke, though it's a bit frightening...

[Fireballed_Mage]

My only complaint...

Roy's line was, "I can write my name in the snow again," instead of, "I welcome back the Trouser Titan!" or "The Trouser Titan returns!" or "Fear the wrath of the Trouser Titan!"

Basically anything with the words 'Trouser Titan' would have been good.

[Eriol]

??? Since when has Belkar *ever* felt guilty about *anything*?

WAY back in the beginning, in comic #8, he felt remorse for accusing Haley.

Though really, that's so early it could simply have been a slip by The Giant, having Belkar feel remorse at all. Looking back, it does seem very out of character for him, so could have been before Belkar was "100%" formed in his mind, and thus was capable of remorse.

[Dark]

Remember that Haley was hitting him in his halfling sensitivity. That might have been the trick.

[Omellette]

Hahahahaha!

Man, I love Belkar...

It tell me more and more that he doesn't really fail so many spots checks, as he like to just mess with people's heads.

:-)

[Gary_Schaper]

I can see this, particularly for the failed Spot checks that get his teammates mauled in some way.

[DOOM2099]

HEE HEE Belkar rules. Who winds up with the belt next?

[GuywithSword#2]

Ahhh... Classic Belkar. Really great stuff!

[mossfoot]

HEE HEE Belkar rules. Who winds up with the belt next?

My guess. Belkar! I think he'll steal it and sneak it on Roy or trick Roy to wear it again, and continue the harassment process ;)

[Flak_Razorwill]

My Gf must think I have "Craft Disturbing Mental Image." But hey, all I did was describe 15 minutes of the movie "Saw" to her. And she says she's a JTHM fan.

Pfft.

[Winged One]

That still has me convulsing with laughter. Craft Disturbing Mental Images... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

[Ilover_Juventad]

The newest thread was...humorous! Craft Disturbing Mental Image...that little psycho! LOL! Belkar messes with heads...no matter what the cost.

"Excuse me, I need to soak my brain in acid now."

Priceless!
