In fairness I did wonder if Isobel was his name when I first read the strip and hadn't noticed the comment about girly names yet, but then I remembered that he'd also cast a hair styling spell that had 'Jimmy's' in the title so I thought that maybe he just wanted to name his shack randomly so it felt more like he was staying at an inn....?
I'm actually no longer sure what I thought!
Thanks for clearing that up though.
[leaves to google for male Isobels]

Edit: My google search taught me two things: 1) Isobel is indeed a predominately female name and 2)The party leader of this comic shares his first name with "the world's most-tattooed senior woman".

It says their exact level in the comic. D:

Ninjaman & Crimson:
I never though that expression would be so well-received. O:

Your humble offering is humbly accepted. Awesome.

Rigby:
Poor Eleanor, so confused and befuddled. :P

The party leader, and the world's most tattooed old crone - a coincidence? Stay tuned, you may find out.

please can it be a coincidence?

Also, confusion and befuddlement are common side effects for those who insist upon reading d&d based comics (Oots, World, Cup, Murphy's Law and YAFGC, plus Flaky Pastry which dabbles in it) without learning anything about d&d rules! It's not refusal per se but I know nobody in the real world who plays it (unfortunately) and I can enjoy reading most of these with the d&d knowledge I get from the others and basic familiarity with fantasy conventions...

I had hoped I could avoid this, but - double post!

It seemed appropriate to point out that there's a new page.

Thank you all for the compliments.

10th page. Woo! Made it before Christmas.

Oh, I had a hard time reading that page do to colorings, so I just glanced at it and moved on.
So Izzy is a wizard then, for the shadow evocation? With a dip in bard or something to that extent to explain the instrument?

Shadow: You know my policy about not telling anyone anything at any point in time.

Ninjaman: I'm working on it. D': All I've got right now is this crummy netbook that can barely handle Inkscape. Work is progressing slowly. ):

Fortunately, I'm buying a new laptop this Thursday, and am hoping the next strip (or two, if you're really lucky) will be finished during the weekend.

Keveak:
Word.

HalfTangible: Why, thank you.

Looking back there is no way she is human, if you take what they are currently saying at face value, as per strip 4(third to last panel) the elven maiden of death.
On the same note as Lysara, look were her staff thingy lands, and the resulting sound effect in the second to last panel.

At long last, a new update. From the bowels of my useless netbook, I present to you what I'm quite positive is the worst page so far. Let's hope it remains the worst.

I find this comic quite comic.

It's good, the punchlines are solid and the characters seem like a real adventuring party, stupid, OOC, and willing to change systems at a blink.

The one thing though, the pyramid could have done better, a lot better.

But I like it overall.

Ps: You may want to resize your avatar down to 120x120pxls, the forum is cutting it.

What's really, really bad about the pyramid is that it's screwed up so badly you can't even tell that it's not as screwed up as it seems - at least, I seriously doubt anyone could infer the actual design of the pyramid from the graphics in the comic. This calls for a sketch.

I know about the avatar. I've had it since before it stopped being automatically resized... which is a long, long time ago. But hell, I can't be bothered to change it.

I just found this comic, and I judge it to:
1. Have fantastic art,
2. Have funny dialogue, and
3. Have excellent characters.

Basically, it's awesome.
