Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
The title is hilarious. XD After I did a google search, of course. Jiminy Cricket is the little cricket in Disney's Pinnoccio, who, not to put too fine a point on it, acts as his conscience, if I recall correctly. The joke being that V's conscience is easily disabled by shiny bits of glass.

Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
You had to google for that? I was already complaining about Disney taking over everything else, so didn't want to say anything about the title here or allude that Disney has taken over Rich like Marvel and Naruto, and is injecting itself even into OOTS-verse.
SpoilerSo then we all know who the opposite of Blackwing is then right? Qarr.
Blackwing is the good side of the conscious and Qarr is the bad side of V's conscious.

Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
Quickened Lightning Bolt takes up a seventh-level spell slot, doesn't it?
Dammit. I thought V had learned his lesson about expending high-level spell slots to prove a point. Though I guess Rich had to keep things interesting.Last edited by Kaytara; 2009-09-11 at 02:20 PM.

lashing out in anger isn't nessasarily an evil act. People get into tavern brawls all the time, if he killed him thats another thing.

Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
V, have you learned anything?
But the "Warlock" comment hit to close to home, didn't it? In D&D 4th edition, Warlocks are folks who channel the energies of fell supernatural beings. Kinda like what V was doing with the Soul Splices.
V wants to improve, but the elf's still got a long way to go. Then again, the road to self-improvement has always been long and detour-filled.Last edited by Katrover_Swatroad; 2009-09-11 at 02:30 PM.

Well, it was a Quickened Lightning Bolt… maybe Vaarsuvius still has enough time to complete a Buy Item action?

Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
I have a feeling this wizard who is taunting V is more than he appears, and the diamond dust is just a ruse. He knew just which buttons to push to make V mad. My guess: Sabine or one of the three cloaked ICC guys.

Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
This was stated in another thread, but what if this guy is one of the new members of the Liner Guild, or one of them in disguise? I mean it would explain why he was trying to get V's goat, because we know the Liner Guild is headed to the gate as well.

Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
What is so wrong about being a warlock.
Also, was V's attack on The Guy morally justified?Last edited by Ikialev; 2009-09-11 at 02:32 PM.

Wow, I was really worried about V until I came on here and saw he hadn't actually killed the, um, turban wearing person.

Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
Poor V never gets a break. Looks like the universe did take a level of ranger and chose Favored Enemy (Vaarsuvius).
The IFCC has no interest in V not getting the materials for her spells. If anything, they want V to be as powerful as possible to be able to reach the gate, defeat Xykon and, once possessed by one of them, take out the OotS.
I think it's more a matter of all wizards being jerks.Formerly known as Discord here and Maladin on avatarspirit.net.

Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
I have chosen to find all the spells that use diamonds as a material component. Stone skin, Restoration, Greater warding, Raise dead spells, magic jar, Protection from spells, Symbol of X spells, Undead to Death, and the one that i just found out that will be most likely be use by V. Nondetection. Short description all spell that try to find or detect information about that target don't work. Like what alignment V is.

Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
Eh...this comic doesn't quite chime with me. I like the crack about spell components in the first panel, but the whole exchange between V and the Turban Guy just seems...inserted. "V gets angry" Isn't really comedy gold, nor is it all that reassuring to know that V is still a "loose canon", something I never, ever saw in him until he started blaming himself for the loss of the city and taking it upon himself to win battles. Yes, he was at a point more concerned about arcane power than he was about humanity, but his ultimate purpose in this comic was always, to me, to play the straight man. Seeing him get outraged like that...it just doesn't seem very "V-like".

Re: OOTS #677 - The Discussion Thread
Ok, I'm not familiar with familiars. Does a raven evoke wisdom? And the warlock insult was something that topped V's will save?
And does the toad of the other wizard guy give him skill points in provocation? It IS a big-mouthed animal...
