Geez, I go to bed and then work for 14 hours and 3 whole pages and two comics get posted. O.o

I really like how Lloyd studies all the different religious texts, the world would be a better, more understanding place if more people did that ^.^

As to the more recent one, I'm confused as to whats happening but I trust the next strip will be full of yummy plot exposition that will either solve my questions or give me all kinds of new ones.

*edit: Irrelevant tangent, that "paladin" you guys are talking about from Goblins is a monster. Seriously, when i read that I was all like and den I .
I am a strong opponent of making paladins fall, but if that happened at my table, the paladin would fall so hard his player would feel the impact...

Not to keep us off topic, but in Goblins, that dwarf has never actually used a Paladin ability...

Though on this comic, I like how Lloyd is willing to look at the other religions. With that, and his somewhat lenient code are about what I envision paladins to be. He needs to at least understand the other religions if he isn't looking for insight he wouldn't find among Astrid's followers.

Don't we all love story time!

But seriously, I'm interested of what's coming next. The Plavaan races clearly have a negative reputation, but I've been wondering for a while why this is. Maybe the next strip(s) will give some answers.

I personally like Lloyd as a character; the fact that he studies other religions fits his current personality. It is obvious there's something in his past that he regrets, probably caused by prejudice, and is desperate not to make the same mistake again. Or so it seems to me.

Lloyd's what paladins should be. He didn't get there easily.

Oh, and Lloyd started this practice of reading other religious texts a couple of years ago.

It would be interesting to see how an ADHD paladin would differ from the regular kind...

That would be funny. However, we do have a wizard with ADHD. That enough for you?

Sometimes it's that, most of the time it's that I'm not really paying attention and my mind is wandering on some really convoluted train of thought and then I say what I'm thinking. Yes, I have ADHD.

I was diagnosed with it once. Turns out i actually had aspberger's syndrome. Did you have to take Straterra or however it's spelled?

No, I take adderal. But this is off topic.

Yes.

A wizard with ADHD is worse than a Paladin with ADHD. For those of you who have read On the Origin of PC's,

Though yes, a paly with ADHD would be hilarious

The problem is that ADHD may be associated with low Wisdom, which is important for paladins. Still, overcoming your weaknesses is beloved by the Gods.

Miko is what paladins should be. Badass, merciless, unbelievably sexy and so insane she scares the Joker away.

...I mean, I'm looking forward to the part where Lloyd finally has enough with Janine, pretends he accepts her offer, tells her to wait for him in her room with the lights off and throws a gagged Matt in said room.

I'd do that at least.

Miko without the insanity, sure. Coming to conclusions several lightyears away from reality doesn't help with law or good... also, listening to reason would help...

If I were in Lloyd's place, I'd have told her to go away by now. But with more swearing. I'd probably end up kicking her off the team if she didn't drop it.

Radic and Janine are a package deal, and they're the most competent fighters he has. Plus Radic has become his second-in-command.

I don't think you need to gag Matt. Although, for fun, you can tell him it's Radic and tell both of them they prefer it to be a silent-ish act...

Exactly how much of a workaholic are you?
