I've got a minor question: do Drow age at the same rate as humans in this comic? I'm assuming they do due to the character's ages, but I thought I'd check.

Sorry about that (I'd only been checking the other thrad fo updates, and I didn't have any reason to believe that Drows aged differently in this comic until now).

I think the present wording will still cause confusion, since 55 human years is still a traditional childhood age for Drow. Perhaps something along the lines of "*In the setting of Failing Saves, Drow age at the same rate as humans"

Yay, new thread!

The note at the top of the bios helps (didn't know that myself) and the way it's worded shouldn't cause any confusion.

Right, i've updated the banners so that they link to this thread. All you guys with banners will have to switch them

Hopefully i'll get the time to make another comic soon, i've been swamped with College interviews and exams recently. Sorry.

Congrats on having the first thread-breaker webcomic.
I have an urge to do a fan art/crossover featuring Gilph beating up the Kobold Mafia.

Howdy, I thought now would be a nice time to start dedicating things.

I'd like to dedicate the whole Failing Saves universe to my Dad, who sadly passed away 4 years ago today. It just so happens he gave me this (terrible) sense of humour and I think I wouldn't be making this comic if it wasn't for his influence.

So thanks for all your comments on the comic, and keep reading.
