Current information on Axe Of Prissan wielders:
SpoilerWielders of the Axe of Prissan
Starting with the most recent
Big Ears - Male Goblin Paladin. One of the protagonists of the story and current wielder of the axe.
Saral Caine* - Evil Male Half Stone Giant/Half Human. Ally of Dellyn Goblinslayer and minor antagonist in the Brassmoon arc.
Dri Featherknife - Female Human Rogue/Paladin. She was killed by Goblinslayer and Saral Caine after uncovering their plot to frame the sherrif of Brassmoon for murder.
Flejj Hillmover - Male Dwarf. He fought Kore twice and survived. His family was not so lucky. He shaved his beard in shame.

Kelstride Blackbringer - Male Human Paladin. Soot's Father. Former chimney sweep. Killed by a Kobold stampede.

Mryorg* - Evil Male Ogre. Beat (but did not kill) Vilias Red in combat and took the Axe from her. Used it to cause great suffering before eventually giving it to Elad purely to make the demon contained within suffer after coming so close to freedom.

Re: Goblins X: Orcs fall, everybody dies (horribly)
That orc should be a motivational speaker.
A thought: maybe we could add the Shield of Wonder tables pages to the first post. Is that something that anyone cares about?Awesome fremetar by wxdruid.
From the discomfort of truth there is only one refuge and that is ignorance. I do not need to be comfortable, and I will not take refuge. I demand to *know*.
So I guess I have an internets? | And a trophy. | And a music cookie (whatever that is).

Agreed, the orc is made of too much win. He would be a great motivational speaker.
And I know i would be interested in the chart being reprinted.

Re: Goblins X: Orcs fall, everybody dies (horribly)
I have 1st 23 listed:
Spoiler
Shield of Wonder:
+2 Light steel shield. Cannot be damaged/destroyed except magic means. Weapon attacks (Improvised don’t count) trigger effects. Attacks that successfully hit wielder don’t trigger. Every unsuccessful attack versus attack vs wielder has 70% to activate.
-Wielder decides if he wants the shield to be hit
--If yes, wielder makes an attack with the shield, if he beats the opponents attack by 4 or more, the shield is hit, if not, resolve attack normally.
--If no, reduce wielder's AC by 4
--If don't care, roll d%, on a 70% or less, the shield is struck.
---If the shield is struck, roll d% to determine the result.
1. Daisies sprout forth 20 ft radius on floor surface around shield. After 2 rds, they burst in flames causing in area to make DC 12 Reflex negate or 1d4 fire
2. Striker loses ability to speak (verbal sounds sound like a kitten), Will save DC 25 (-1 per attempt) Negate, check made when it happens and 1/hr. Curse effect.
3. Anyone within 50 ft struck blind for 1d6 rd (DC 17 Will negate)
4. Loud gong sound shatters all non-magical glass within 100 ft.
5. 1d12 spiked tentacles appear within 10 ft of wielder and randomly attack anyone except wielder. Reach 25 ft, 1d8-1 dam, hit +2, AC 14 (+2 Dex), hp 1
6. Large mouth forms on shield yelling out wielders deepest secrets for 1d6 rd
7. Striker healed of all injuries
8. Wielder healed of all injuries
9. Burst 10 ft goo that stinks, but no other effect.
10. Striker vomits uncontrollably 1d6 rd (nauseated, DC 15 fort negate)
11. Tower of explosive fires beneath wielder (50 ft wide, 80 ft high) damage 12d6 non magical fire (DC 22 Reflex for ½ damage, Wielder may instead make a DC 30 no damage, failure take 1/2)
12. Harmless bubbles
13. Large hail falls from sky (or ceiling) for 1d6 rd, hail deals 1d4 blunt.
14. One individual within 50 ft permanently gains ever burning torch wings (no flight, just wings made of light)
15. Striker becomes 1 ft taller
16. Wielder becomes 1 ft taller
17. Last person to speak verbally to wielder turned to stone (no distance) Fort save DC 18 negate.
18. Striker and Wielder swap bodies, no save. Remove curse, dispel magic, etc work automatically to end effect.
19. Flammable oil rains from sky in 80 ft radius for 1d4 rd. Any fire/spark causes massive wave of flames.
20. Striker changes gender Fort save DC 28
21. Wielder changes gender Fort save DC 28
22. Shock wave explodes outward 30 ft burst, dealing 2d8 +4 damage, initiating a DC 20 Str check, (-2 for every size category above small). Failure causes you to be knocked back 10 ft and prone. Anyone hitting against another object or creature takes 1d6 damage.
23. Striker frozen solid, DC 14 Fort save (similar to being turned to stone, you aren’t dead, but can’t act will unfreeze). Thaw in 1 hour. Can be removed with remove curse.
There may be spell or other error when copying.Last edited by Starbuck_II; 2012-11-05 at 11:15 PM.

Re: Goblins X: Orcs fall, everybody dies (horribly)
There's something in front of some of the specks of blood flying out of Duv. I think it's more likely that it's light than some of the rapids managed to bounce up to Duv's shoulder's height. And, the scene just got way darker. This would happen when a reflection from the water shoots directly into the 'camera' and it auto-adjusts.
Which would, normally, be an odd thing to happen in a drawn comic, but we know Thunt hired a guy specifically to play with light and shadow.
Speaking of which, we can always have Morikahn settle this for us, presuming he follows us to the new thread. Morikahn, help us!My PMV's! Youtube Channel

Re: Goblins X: Orcs fall, everybody dies (horribly)
Sun reflecting in water, passing through blood. Scene darkened to make light brighter. Mostly used to highlight the action of the scene. In reality, such a bright shot would have completely blown out any detail in the characters, but I didn't want to lose Duv's facial expressions.
Or, it could be a magical explosion, and cracking the wing bone of Duv has granted Biscuit a magical wish.
You make the call.

SpoilerDuv still does not understand. It's not about ignoring over overlooking loss or pain. It's about rising above it and going past it.

Re: Goblins X: Orcs fall, everybody dies (horribly)
Its not that simple.
SpoilerKills horribly is there, and may or may not be winning against klik. She may be forced to use it against kills horribly to drive him off. Even if she doesnt end up destroying the orb to stop kills it will still take time. Time which leaves an opening for anyone else to get the orb. Also, where is biscut going? Is he all done and now going off into the wilds on his own? Will he meet up with everyone later?"Interdum feror cupidine partium magnarum Europae vincendarum"

Re: Goblins X: Orcs fall, everybody dies (horribly)
what's that fleshy thing on the final pannel? It's dies' colour and it's shaking like he does, but it's pretty bug and seems to have a missing portion on the left side of it, and i'm pretty sure Dies is neither facing in that direction nor has that much arm left.

Re: Goblins X: Orcs fall, everybody dies (horribly)
Possible small continuity issues aside, it's obviously supposed to be Dies' arm. Hence the pointed presence of both it and the limb-restoring Orb of Bloodlight in one panel.

Re: Goblins X: Orcs fall, everybody dies (horribly)
Sure he does. Looks to me like he amputated it at an angle starting just below his elbow. That being said, it does look a little wonky in today's panel. Keep in mind that Tarol had to draw this page with a crap-tastic video card so this is probably the best he can do with what he's got.

Re: Goblins X: Orcs fall, everybody dies (horribly)
SpoilerDepends on how quickly Dies gets control of his new arm, actually. Given that there's a high chance it's mere presence will be deadly to Kills Horribly... Klik may not be dead yet...
SpoilerNo, Dies horribly died horribly. Though I suppose it could take on a new meaning now, but prophetically speaking, Dies name was fairly straightforward.Last edited by Squark; 2012-11-13 at 06:38 PM.
