    Those are some ugly fishlips in panel 2. I find a lot of the female character’s lips are pretty hit and miss. Panel 4 is much better.

          Whoops … I guess he is a gnome rather than an elf, isn’t he. I’m just used to seeing pointy ears and thinking elf. He also looks a little bit less stocky than the others.

      Size matters not. Judging by Bandit’s apparent confidence she’s probably a lot higher level than these guys, so I don’t see her as a ‘wee slip of a girl’. In numbers, she’s huge. And while these guys seem to think that they can take her, they’re not exactly treating her as if she’s just a little girl.

    Alicemacher — You will have to fight me to see who gets to take Bandit home. (Of course she might have something to say about it too.) ((Might? I misspeak myself. I rather think she might object to being “taken.”))

      It will end up a bidding war between you two. Bandit’s a practical gal, she’ll take gold over bloodshed. After all, it’s only posing on a shelf you want, right? :P

    In five minutes’ time those guys are going to find themselves tangled in a heap on their floor missing their pants, and Bandit will be five counties away working another angle.

    They don’t know yet that she can’t be killed. Not even divide and conquer works on her!
