Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
Ah, my mistake...given the plot so far revolves around someone putting a price on his head, and he appears prominently in the advertising banner, thought he was the main character. If it's more of an ensemble piece, I'll treat it as such and see what happens next.

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
Given Cade's general incompetence, I'm not sure that making him Blessed of two gods simultaneously *would* make him a Marty Stu...

Cade's got one blessing, the assassin the other, the two are life-bonded making the blessings act together.

Nice quote from Knight's Tale today. That's one of my favorites!

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
Incidentally, between noticing this comic and now I started playing a Bardadin build in a D&D game. I'd say I was inspired but mostly I just wanted to try a Snowflake Wardance+Divine Might two-weapon fighter and I rolled the insane stats needed for that.
Also it's Forgotten Realms and, well, Paladins of Sune.Spoiler

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
Why have I only just noticed Cade has pointed ears? Did his hat hide them the previous time, or am I just a muppet?

Maybe it's a UK thing--muppet = idiot in this context.

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
You know, there's a couple cursed items that could actually be pretty useful. Dust of Sneezing and Choking springs to mind, and the Belt of Gender Changing or Helm of Opposite Alignment could make for fun times.

Plus the prophecy shows that his head was blown off with an arrow (which means cursed items will be off the list).
Then again, it could be illusion spell of Cade.Badly drawn helmet avatar drawn by me.

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
you know, given that there's a prophecy slating Cade to be killed by an arrow, and his lck makes very unlikely things happen to him, I'd say that actually makes it improbable to have happen.

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
I find it strange that you have the electricity for an entire neighbourhood being carried on a single pole that can get wrecked by a car. Local electricity distribution cables in the UK are usually buried, I guess it's different over there!

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
The vast majority in the US is above ground, the cables being strung on tall and generally quite solid poles. Most urban neighborhoods have redundant supply routes, but not all, and that becomes less likely as you move outwards. One car moving at a good speed can be a real problem

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
Power lines are underground in some places in the U.S. but in cities that have been around a while, it costs a lot of money to put the wires underground so we have the ugly things all over the place.
There are redundant lines. When the car accident happened, are power only briefly went out, then came back on again a minute later, only to go out again later. I assume that when they come to work on it, they have to shut off that entire section of grid to work on it safely.

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
OK, gnome guy clearly knows those two rings are from the cursed collection...did he manage to grab them back, or do we find out what they do when Cade puts them on? (Although that was a mighty big chest to just contain a couple of rings, and it's odd that the *proper* loot managed to come up as well even though there was no longer a sign on the chest containing them...).

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
Garnett ("the gnome") knocked the rings out of Cade's hand in a panic, and is currently looking for them. You'll have to see what happens with that.
As for the cursed chest and legit items, you may remember that the porter says "Apparently Garnett wants to shower the hero with one more gift", before picking up the cursed chest by mistake, meaning the "legit" rewards were already gathered.
Finally, there is more in the chest than just the rings. You'll see.Last edited by gadren; 2012-06-19 at 01:13 AM.

Re: Twice Blessed (Total Ripoff of OOTS?)
OK, let's guess here: Cade and the assassin just got mind-swapped? Or are they just telepathically linked to each other now?
