I first got into Eberron 8 days ago when I bought the 4E Campaign Guide (which I have been reading every day since), and I looked through all the comics today. It's a pretty good comic, I'll continue reading it. Today's was my favorite, I think. Also, a question: will we see cameos from established Eberron characters (such as the Lord of Blades)?

Hacktor, how do you do your warforged mouths when you want them to frown while talking? Sort of like Roy in panel 7 of page 665, or Hinjo's face in panel 7 of page 671


My webcomic also had a warforged (and is set in Ebberon for the moment, and the warforged tends to play the Straight man, so he needs to be able to frown properly)

I was thinking hard about this one... I have no problems with putting in cameos of the main NPC's. I'll just have to do it with taste... this is not a sightseeing tour of Eberron... Sure, if the characters happen to meet an important NPC he'll be here [or if I can think of a really funny joke (Jaela comes to mind right now... and Caius)] but I will never draw them just for the sake of it.

I think we talked about this one a few pages back. I use only 3 typed of "Warforged mouth"
plain closed, talking and the other one "seen in #32". If I want to evoke other feelings in them I use their eyes (I have about 30 saved up). That makes it easier to draw and keeps true the fact that warforged don't show their feelings using their face. [they should have only one set of eyes but that would hinder my efforts instead of aid them.]

Haven't you seen those guys that think their shop/pub/inn gets a feeling of history when adding "ye olde" in front of it. Even though it's 100% prefab and built last month.

Also ..Glad you guys liked #32.

Nice reference towards 3 of the dragonmarked houses there. If I hadnt read the "+1001 things the worst party in Eberron is forbitten from doing", or the Forgotten Freedom Rules list, I wouldnt catch on it

Three? one was not deliberate Kudos to bayar for spotting an extra one...

What was the third one? I can't see it...

Tenshiro has to explain to me sometimes some obscure references to some old movies or internet fads but i was always the d&d + Eberron lore guy.

*Gets out players guide* Oh, I see. It's kind of a stretch, but I get it. Cannith are basically inventors. Ghallanda run inns, restaurants, and whatnot. Vadalis actually raise animals, although we don't know if they eat them or not. I wonder if magebred livestock taste better...

Clearly she has Fly, the Ocular spell feat which she uses in conjunction with Scorching Ray, Comprehend languages and a Squirrel familiar.

furious Krop Has Stolen All My Luck

Hey ya, remember me?

No.33 has been done for quite a while now but Hacktor couldn`t poste it because I hadn`t sent him the texts.
I broke my own rule and did not save it on the flash-drive on Monday evening because I was too tired from questing in WoW (bad habbit) and I didn`t have the energy to look for it.
The next morning my dad took MY notebook to work with him promissing he`ll bring it by the evening. Evening came and he called and said he had to pull an all-nighter. Morning came, he was even more late. I was steaming pissed off with him for taking my notebook without asking, no matter the reason...
When he came back he had even more bad news for me, the drive was formated. So I got even more pissed off because the notebook had a tweaked version of Vista Ultimate and it was bitching (plus, I had lost ALL my data.)
So, I had to go to a friend who had a similar Vista. It took forever to track him down because he moved and I have no more cell-phone credit.
I found him, and because my notebook is moronic without an OS, it took quite a while to get installed. The good news is, we found out I had my second partition fully intact and thus the only thing I lost were the programs I used. (the thought of reinstalling and downloading all those WoW patches... O_O)

So now I have Vista, and I have my stuff and as soon as Hacktor comes online I`ll send him the texts and as soon as he gets home, we can expect the new strip to be on(unless by some sadistic chance, he also gets unlucky... I PRAY it won`t happen)

Either way, I am so so SO freaking sorry it took so long.

Update: while writing this Hacktor got online! ^-^v

Yeah, those WoW pathces are a bitch to download. Thinking of buying a removable hard drive and backing up all my WoW folder (since it works without installing).

More bad news... i have 2 exams this weekend and i haven't studied to save my life... so i won't have any time to draw... The good news is that I quickly get bored of studying, and I'm going to ask Tenshiro for the script to 34 now... so when you get them you will get them both.

Sorry for this but I have to pass.

While I'm packing I want to leave you guys with a question...

What if Tenshiro were to exercise his best quality? I can draw at half the pace Tenshiro can write so until I can catch up, Will you guys like to get some side plots (within the world and related to our characters, like flashbacks and the like) Just in written form?

It's just a question, I discussed it with him and he said he'll post something while I'm away but I was thinking... will it be OK if inbetween regular posts you guys will get some plain text story...

This will by no means mean that I will update more slowly, on the contrary, I want to update faster and when I come back my schedule will permit it.

Also I promice to add `some` art to the text

please vote on this.
Have a fun week... see you next Tuesday.

frown The frowny face says it all...

Hey ya, gang. Had to take a small scholastic hiatus. I was so lost in it all I lost track of time... My calendar says Saturday but to me it feels like Wednesday or Thursday the most...

Anyway, I promised Hacktor a small literary interlude and thus I shall begin writing it RIGHT NOW!

I`ll double post with the finished product.

smile Much appreciated

Thanks for the above comment.
If you guys do not mind the Wall o` text I could do this one a week or once every two weeks, I really don`t expect running out flashbacks or side stories any time soon.
But I`d really appreciate if there was more than just one comment, not for my ego, in order to properly tell if you guys are enjoying these.
I really don`t want to bore anyone.
