Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
Dammit. I only just figured out that the high priest of Odin was gasping at the vampires coming in. I couldn't figure why she was gasping! It looked like she was gasping at HPoH calling to her, but she was looking in the wrong direction. Like she suddenly went blind and looked in the direction of the speech bubble.

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
I'm not sure if I'm oblivious, judging by personality or it's the speech bubble, but I always saw the "Hold Person" in 398 as coming from V. Apparently it's Durkon.

The new high priest of Hel can be seen in the first panel of 994.
Other vampires are possible to spot as well.Last edited by AlignmentDebate; 2016-01-18 at 11:17 AM.

I just realized we've seen the dusting effect in 1018/1019 before.

Durkula's accent disappears as soon as he's out of Roy's sight and hasn't returned since.

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
I never noticed that, in #661, panel #8 O-Chul is freaking out, but by panel #10 he's calm, having accepted his own death and ready to die with dignity.

Either way, neat catch on the changing facial expressions. I don't think I've noticed that before.

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
I just realised that in #963, Durkula briefly slips into Durkon's accent ("somethin' to look forward to") and feel kind of stupid because it was immediately highlighted by Durkon in the following panel.

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
Of course he was scared. A hero acts even though he's scared.
'Can a man still be brave if he's afraid?'
'That is the only time a man can be brave,' his father told him.”
― George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones
Being scared is an advantage, if you use it properly.
Let me tell you about scared. Your heart is beating so hard I can feel it through your hands. There’s so much blood and oxygen pumping through your brain it’s like rocket fuel. Right now you could run faster and you could fight harder, you could jump higher than ever in your life. And you are so alert it’s like you can slow down time. What’s wrong with scared? Scared is a superpower.
Doctor Who, episode Listen.

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
Oh, that's Miko's interpretation of that ability. I think Redcloak had something to say about that. The word unnatural was used if I recall correctly.
Seriously, being immune to fear doesn't (or shouldn't) mean that you don't feel it. It just doesn't affect you in a negative way*. Instead of being paralized or driven to fight or flight instincts a Paladin can still think (more or less) rational. More in O-Chul's case less in Miko's."If it lives it can be killed.
If it is dead it can be eaten."

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
Though the Miko discussion and (maybe?) other in-comic stuff seems to support just not feeling any fear at all being the effect in OotS (and i don't think that is definite as it's Miko but still an indicator) i think wether or not aura of courage effects feeling the emotion of fear is up to interpretation for roleplaying purposes. Any real ingame effect they're immune to of course.
And i think a paladin can feel fear in an antimagic field as unlike most immunities (or even divine health so it dosen't seem to be for flavour) it's a Su effect not an Ex one (unless the Su is referring just to the aura not the immunity, any statements on that?) so there is that.
Not really sure I prefer one interpretation over the other, but i do believe its interpretation.

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
Besides, there isn't only fear. There is the crushing suffering of knowing that you will die in the ruins of your city, after having spent your last miserable months in pain and torture, away from most of your loved ones.
You can be scared by the prospective of suffering or paralyzed by the fear of losing something. Paladins can knowingly go towards loss and suffering without being scared, and then, when the time comes, suffer the whole deal nonetheless.Originally Posted by J.R.R. Tolkien, 1955

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
In strip 705, Niu is holding bludgeoning weapons and holy water. As in, she actually prepared to battle a "skeleton crew".

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
Was probably noted at the time, but had a moment of fridge logic.
When Tarquin meets Sabine, he says 'lovely as ever' and she replies 'that doesn't mean anything to a Shapeshifter'. Tarquins wearing a ring of True Seeing; he's the only character we know for certain who knows what Sabine actually looks like.I admit full culpability for Phyrnglsnyx

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
I never noticed that Mr. Scruffy attempted to disembowel the dwarf in black armor (page two panel six). Either practice and/or lack of armor makes him more successful in the arena.

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
What makes you think he didn't succeed? The dwarf has scrathes on his torso, which indicates several wounds. At minimum he lost HP to Scruffy's attack. This probably contributed to his death.

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
What Hinjo says in strip 302 "it is a time for new beginnings and new plotlines which may or may not be immediately apparent"
This is almost for sure our reference to the new story arc that's happening.Last edited by Pokemonster2; 2016-01-26 at 07:33 PM.

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
Technically we don't see all of him in the last panel. So technically it is possible i guess. Though his position on the gorund makes that quite unlikely, (but then agian after looking at the last panel closely, i don't understand how the bodies got in the postions they did anyway, some seem to have fallen the wrong way or are too close together, Not saying it's important it just slightly bugs me now.)

Re: Things You Never Noticed V: Your Familiar
Gotta say, as debates in this thread go, the question of whether a random mook was disemboweled or not has got to be one of the ickier.
