Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Not to mention out of all the characters we have seen ONE character (matt) has said, "Elves are arrogant pricks". I’m not sure about the rest of you, but I think that would be more of an issue with matt then elves really. He had one or two bad experiences, so he stretches the truth and says they all are pricks. If we had ten thousand humans saying elves were pricks? Then we could probably draw some conclusions, but one? That’s just a guy who was in the wrong place at the wrong time... which is pretty much matt’s entire existence.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Matt DIDN'T have a bad experience. He's just jealous of their dexterity. XD

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Well, you could say he had a thoroughly bad experience. (Me, I hate getting set on fire.)
It just wasn't the elf's fault, is all.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Eh, I guess. Not a GOOD reason to be speciesist though.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
EXACTLY!!!! There is no rhyme or reason to this! Matt hates elves simply because they can become Arcane Archers, have a long lifespan, and have a +2 Dexterity bonus! Elves in this world are no more arrogant or bullying asses than any other species in this world! Sure, there are some, BUT THERE ARE ALWAYS SOME, BE IT ELF OR HUMAN OR ORC! The only reason he hates them is jealousy! That's the point! There's no point to his hatred other than jealousy, and it's wrong!

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
And if we were to go further, there are some humans in Murphy's Law who think they are superior in the exact same fashion as what Closak said about elves thinking they are superior. Just ganging up on elves because they're elves is not a good enough reason Closak.
And I'm ending this elf argument.

Later we find out, Matt is an elf. One of his parents magickally rounded his ears and made him clumsy. A wizard did it explains everything, always.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
I discovered this comic a little while ago. It's Great! One of the few Fancomics I read on these Boards. Keep up the good work!
To contribute to the somewhat dead elf argument. I too believe that Matt hating elves because of jealousy does not, in any way make them all pricks. He just had bad experiences with them, much like the half dragon had bad experiences with adventurers.Last edited by Lord Loss; 2010-06-08 at 04:57 AM.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
I'd feel superior to everyone else if everyone else was a pre-assumptive speciest, too n.n
Incidentally, there'll be human supremacists too. As well as kobold supremacists, dragon supremacists and the "kobold's-r-btr" brigade.Because we all know that kobolds can't count to six, let alone spell anything with that many letters
Anyhow, can we take a sharp step away from "elves are sometimes not bad" in favour of something related to the topic? Ah-ha.At dusk, I will think of you...

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Dammit, Janine! Get back here and finish having an epiphany of self-awareness about friendship and respect and stuff!
Also, Fir delivering touch spells is cute as hell. But the fact that Serrin seems to fill all her second-level spell slots with Owl's Wisdom when she visits her grandparents makes it harder to believe their "we only sold this one potion ever" schtick...Last edited by mucat; 2010-06-08 at 06:42 AM.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Agreed. Especially if you imagine Fir saying "Owl's Wisdom" in a little kitty voice.
Speaking of which, am I reading too much into Remus's expression, or do his emotions match those of Radic?

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Wow, Matt actually thought Radic was going to kill him?
He really knows how to expect the worst...why am i reminded of myself there?
And Tinder looks annoyed in the fourth panel.
"Oh sure, i may be a teenager, and i may have hormones running wild all over the place, but that does NOT mean i'm going to screw just anyone just like that...freaking stereotypes" is what i get from that expression.

Ah, Better, Janine, better.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Is it just me, or does Janine think like a stereotypical man?
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm starting to learn an important life lesso- oh, wait, sex, I'll be right over."
Also, kitty casting spell. My inner female (All guys have one) just squeed. Profusely.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
No, Serrin prepared Owl's Wisdom twice. As a 9th level wizard with natural 18 intelligence, she can cast 5 second-level spells a day.
Speaking of which, am I reading too much into Remus's expression, or do his emotions match those of Radic?

's stereotypical for a reason, too.

Re: Murphy's Law (Thread 2!)
Good update, and good resolution to this little issue. The cat casting spells was a nice touch too, no pun intended.
Does this mean Janine will give up her quest to conquer the contents of Lloyd's pants?Last edited by Lycan 01; 2010-06-08 at 03:56 PM.
