All right, first off--THAT WAS A DIRTY TRICK! Can't say I'm surprised Giant pulled that, though.
Elan with an eyepatch. Looks like he's dashed his swordsman a bit too much...or something. And we can pretty well guess about when he got it, sometime between the second and third port they visited (since he doesn't have the eyepatch for the first two frames of the plot exposition part). EDIT: And it is entirely possible he just put it on for show. He sems to be crying from under his eyepatch in the last two panels.
"Already eight weeks pregnant?" So they'd only known each other for about a month, and--huh. I found it interesting that Durkon was so understanding of the above mentioned issue, but he was so shocked that Hilgya ran away from her husband. Also, it looks like we'll never learn Daigo's last name now.
Also--blue wine? *Boggled* |

It's funny, I didn't read the past two until just now, so I read them together, and it didn't even occur to me that it may be Elan and Haley getting married. XD;; I just clicked to the next comic and saw it wasn't them...sorta defeats the purpose, I guess! XD |

Also--blue wine? *Boggled* [glow=red,2,300]There's definitely a difference between leaving everyone who depends on you to run off after a childish dream and getting knocked up. The second can happen to anyone, and those two really do like each other. They've been at sea for three months, not one month. I guess they got bored.  The eyepatch - I figured it was something liek that. XD[/glow] |

They've been at sea for three months, so the knocking in question must have happened about one month into the voyage.
And yeah, I think we saw the eyepatch thing coming. Didn't make it any less funny, though. |

Loved the joke on the second-to-last panel.  I'm guessing either Durkon doesn't know Roy quite as well as he thought he did, or it's just a case of the the unique circumstances. What can block scrying other than Nondetection?  If it is Nondetection, either the caster is high level, or the scryers made some lousy caster level checks, each and every time. So I'm guessing it's something else. Vaarsuvius needs to get some rest. |

And I think it's more of a reflection of Durkon's dwarvish "always do your duty" view of the world than Roy's actual opinion. with both Haley and Roy gone, it sort of falls to Durkon to keep the party some semblance of focused.
... That was too much alliteration.
The fact is, I think Durkon is just saying 'stay focused on the next gate' because that's the party's duty. He knows that Roy would never leave a man behind, not after his near-fatal mistake concerning Elan at the Bandit camp.[/glow] |

I was talking to Dan and we were commenting on how we wish the whole Order would reunite again... I'm enjoying the comics, but it's just not the same with the group divided. =(
That's where my new siggy quote originated. XD
"We need some sort of miracle... or plot hole." |

I so knew it. *pokes an earlier post* I was kinda wondering how they would get down there. now I'm wondering how Roy's gonna get back up (or if he's going to be stuck until his dad pulls him back up, assuming he'll ever do that, that is). And does anyone else find this humorous, or is it just me?  I'm not sure why a D&D character/scenario manager would have that option in the first place, but I saw it, thought of the comic, and started on a character sheet, just for the fun of it, even though the comic FAQ says there's no set character stats. (About half of that stuff listed is guessing, some of it is based of off observations of stuff hinted at in the comic, the rest is stuff said outright.) And on a random note, in LOTR Elvish, there is a single word for he/she/it, with no other words to differentiate. |

HOMG! I love this webcomic. Can I join? Added to the list ^_^ I can't believe I forgot about this xD; Y'know, I'm getting kinda bored of the plots and subplots. I kinda wish they were on some random quest again with more jokes and such.
And I wonder what's going to happen when D&D 4th edition is going to roll around. Is he going to convert the characters? I hope not. 4th ed is turning out to be a conversion of WoW into the D20 system. But enough about me ranting what do y'all think? |

Yes, I agree with you there, Scar. It was so much funnier when they were all together and not wrapped up in this whole big plot thingy. It was funnier before!  |

All right, so I was just walking to the campus library. I passed some guy, and out of the corner of my eye, I just barely made out what was on his shirt: Belkar, atop a mountain of severed hobgoblin heads, proclaiming "I AM A SEXY SHOELESS GOD OF WAR!" |

I'm guessing this means that either Haley needs to be physically grasping the sword, or that Roy can talk to her when she's sleeping (a la The Sixth Sense). If it's the former, I'm guessing we can expect to see 'Haley, are you okay? You look like you've seen a ghost.' |
