Natural One - an OotS-style webcomic

[Chronicled]

They're not that stealthy then, are they?

Well, it's more that you might find them after they sneak attack you.

Why take Whisper Gnomes when Strongheart Halflings are just as good as humans

Also, the puns, they hurt

Perhaps the potential for a +17 on your Hide checks, at level 1? [Edit: That should be +20, if you took Skill Focus: Hide. +4 Racial, +4 Size, +5 Dex, +4 Ranks, +3 Skill Focus.] Strongheart Halflings are top-notch, of course, but Whispergnomes are just as competitive (that wonderful +2 Con -2 Cha advantage over Strongheart Halflings comes to mind, among other things. Yes, there are other things.). A lot of people think that Whispergnomes should be a +1 LA race, although the same isn't that true for Strongheart Halflings.

Actually +20 isn't all you can get upto. With a a little use of (2) flaws and a trait I've had +29... Shape Soulmeld (Kruthik Claws) for another +4 and then stealthy as feats from the flaws, and then the illiterate trait taking the +1 on hide. And then a masterwork tool of hide. 50 gp for +2 to any skill check... Lovely. Course this is slightly cheesed... Toss on dark template for real laughs... Hide in Plain sight, and another untyped increase to hide for just +1 LA.

+33 if you get reduce person.

+33 if you get reduce person.

I'll need to remember this extra trick.
+33 at level 1... Very good at hiding.

BUMP

PLease don't let this comic die. I love it's characters too much. I won't go into detail now, but I can't wait to see some new issues of Natural One.

[Uncle Festy]

*waits for comic*

[The Gremlin]

*waits for comic*

*Also waits for comic*

[Elder Tsofu]

Thanks for bumping, now I got to read it and join in the ranks waiting for the next issue. :)

[memnarch]

...Hello? Is the comic still alive?

[The Gremlin]

...Hello? Is the comic still alive?

STOP BUMPING THE THREAD!!!

It's a shame that Catharsis has taken a vow of silence, because this was a great comic. Terrific artwork, cool characters, great humor, and it was only nine strips in. The only webcomics I follow now are Order of the Stick, Goblins, Anti-Heroes, and the new Darkhallow Chronicles. Failing Saves seems fairly dead, Banjo1985's comic (can't recall it's name now) is dead, and Natural One is at -8 and bleeding and The Gremlin just attempted to coup de grace it.

He'll be back! He has to come back!

I did?
Oops...hope I roll a natural one...

Still around, just very busy. Turns out spending 5 hours on a comic isn't the first thing in my mind during vacations. Especially when there's a heated outdoor pool available. :P

I'm currently packing up my stuff at the old institute and preparing myself for the move to Heidelberg. Also, I have a conference next week for which I still have to print a poster.

I'll try to resume the comic when the dust settles, but no guarantees for now.

You're definitely excused. My mind would be on the pool, too. (don't have the yard or the cash for one at home...) Thus, sadly, I've never learned to swim properly...

I've got some bees on line 1, they're asking you to stop making them look lazy.

[Uncle Festy]

C-catharsis?
CATHARSIS! You're back!
… relatively speaking.
*glomps*

[Phase]

Yay! Less lull!

[mockingbyrd7]

He speaks! He lives!

He does not write comics!

[Phase]

I hereby write a pact that says that no one may post in this thread until the comic is back. I keep getting false hope...

Not that there isn't real hope! *Cough*

[Wreckingrocc]

I sign the pact.

Aw, dammit!

[DLoFunk]

*Gives False Hope* LOL

....hello....? Anyone still here....? ....Catharsis?

It turns out moving to another country, finding an apartment and starting on a new job is more work than it seems. Don't expect anything in the next few weeks.

[Hoplite]

Aww, that is a shame. Nice that you moved to another country though.

[The Gremlin]

It is indeed a shame. A new country could be cool, though. Just hope this comic comes back

Well, get settled and pick up the story again when you have time in abundance again. So where are you moving anyway? Guessing ... Vienna, Austria?

[Dr. Simon]

Catharsis, haven't seen you since the early days of Creative Conclave!

Very nice work on this webcomic. So, are you going to be sneaking any references to Obrenaja into it?

I've only done the latter two, and just that was a ton of work. Good luck with your move!
