He promised her a quick death, which doesn’t include rape (unless he likes corpses.) That said, I’m not sure how wrestling will grant a quick death but I hope if Bandit dies she gets resurrected. XD
Actually, if done correctly, strangulation is a quick and fairly painless way to die. This is because it’s not just the asphyxsia that kills you, but the crushed neck, thereby speeding up the process and reducing pain.
good bye bandit, and once again hello Best! i am almost tempted to bet my gold star that notorious bard will show up at the last second to salvage something out of this bad situation.
He never actually died. Otherwise his spirit would be hollering at Gravedust 24/7, as he had one humongous Unfinished Business, and plenty reason to be miffed about the deal he got.
He went through the vortex into another world.
H.R. Daedalus confirmed it.
Someone to the rescue, please? Bandit’s bloodied and down, and no troll blood (or whatever the heck really did save her from her Chapter 8 death) nearby.
Oh, and please have Frigg be the rescuer. In Frigg withdrawal here.
Or to misquote an obscure line from a popular Christmas carol,
Please give us a Friggy pudding,
Please give us a Friggy update,
Please give us a Frigg – gnoll beating,
And bring it right now! ….(or in 48 hrs, that’ll be fine)
While I don’t have the love for Bandit that most seem to, I believe she’s technically close enough to be in healing influence of the Bough, so there’s a good chance this may not be as final as it looks.
yknow Cole, i dont think weve ever seen the Bandit take such a beating since the Byronator took her down at the Savage Arena!
thats right Randy, this is shaping up to be the bloodiest Auraugumania ever! What do you think the Bandit is thinking right now?
i dont think shes thinking much of anything right now Cole.
Hah! and now a word from our sponsor! Feeling down? Cant quite reach? try Syr’nj-Tec’s new Bounding Brew! one swig and youll be on cloud nine! (Syr’nj-Tec is not liable for falling related deaths.)
Call me mean and stuff but i am still rooting for the gnoll.Hurray for Auraugu ,champion of the Fuzzy people.
…what? its a war you know. something like this had to happen sooner or later.
also.as of what we have seen so far what the other group members are doing there are only 2 of them that wasn’t shown and could come to the rescue now. thats right: E-mule and Tombdirt the ultimate super hero dou :D
Our chief weapon is surprise…surprise and fear…fear and surprise…. Our two weapons are fear and surprise…and ruthless efficiency…. Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency…and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope…. Our *four*…no… *Amongst* our weapons…. Amongst our weaponry…are such elements as fear, surprise…. I’ll come in again.
Who’s available for rescue? Crap, only frigg and gravedust…
Of course, Gravedust might have been summoned by the dead elves’ spirits, if they’re dead… but that means a quick end for Auraugu, the dwarf doesn’t fuck around, being celibate and all.
Frigg might be looking for a rod of blue-ball negation… that would leave the gnoll a chance to survive, he might be scarred for life, but alive. Since, well, Frigg does fuck around.
What’s This?
Our Preferred Pint-sized Pilferer Pounded to a Pulp?
Will the Devious Doggie Deliver a Dire Down?
Tune in next time for “Ruff Time on the Green” Or “Attack from the Grassy Gnoll”
Gonna guess that she dies, and then comes back to life again, and it gets much HARDER to explain why THIS time around, as another hint towards the revelation of what is happening to THE INCEPTION OF THE GAMER IN THE CELL ON THE 13TH FLOOR OF THE MATRIX UNDER THE VANILLA SKY.
You know that Stephen King sued New Line Cinema to have his name removed from any association with that Lawnmower Man movie? I read the original short story, it had NOTHING to do with computers and virtual reality.
The only explanation we need for Bandit repeatedly dying and respawning is that she’s not one of the Five. She’s a regular player with regular unlimited respawns.
I will not root for the easily excitable gnoll.
I will not root for the easily excitable gnoll.
I will not root for the easily excitable gnoll…
Gnoll deal – HAIL AURAUGU!
Why not root for him? He rooted for Bandit!
Oh – my mistake – he rooted DOWN Bandit.
Guy in mask pinning down female with tentacular things? I hope this isn’t a trend of things to come.
/D/o you fear rooting?
Oh dear…
As a linux user, yes, I p|-|34r r0071n9.
SUDO?
Is Vezk branching out into theivery?
He promised her a quick death, which doesn’t include rape (unless he likes corpses.) That said, I’m not sure how wrestling will grant a quick death but I hope if Bandit dies she gets resurrected. XD
Actually, if done correctly, strangulation is a quick and fairly painless way to die. This is because it’s not just the asphyxsia that kills you, but the crushed neck, thereby speeding up the process and reducing pain.
Know this from experience, do you?
I’ve seen enough hentai to know where this is going…
A hen drunk on Mai Tais?
Do Hens Tai one on?
I hope it is
Can you SMELLLLLLLLL what the gnoll is cookin’, pulling the most electrifying moves of Arkerran entertainment.
she is firmly planted on the ground
you could even say that she is rooted there.
Oh Crap
I don’t think adding fertilizer is going to help…
good bye bandit, and once again hello Best! i am almost tempted to bet my gold star that notorious bard will show up at the last second to salvage something out of this bad situation.
Cog, I hope not.
I’d definitely be ready to Payet my respects to Bandit if that were the case but somehow I feel it’s not time yet. Saving Best for last ya know.
What if they’re Hardcore characters? Let’s hope he has another alt at a high enough level already.
He never actually died. Otherwise his spirit would be hollering at Gravedust 24/7, as he had one humongous Unfinished Business, and plenty reason to be miffed about the deal he got.
He went through the vortex into another world.
H.R. Daedalus confirmed it.
So [i]hopefully[/i] he is hollering at mystics in the other world and will never ever EVAR return to this universe.
Someone to the rescue, please? Bandit’s bloodied and down, and no troll blood (or whatever the heck really did save her from her Chapter 8 death) nearby.
Oh, and please have Frigg be the rescuer. In Frigg withdrawal here.
Or to misquote an obscure line from a popular Christmas carol,
Please give us a Friggy pudding,
Please give us a Friggy update,
Please give us a Frigg – gnoll beating,
And bring it right now! ….(or in 48 hrs, that’ll be fine)
She’s a GM character. She’s probably immortal.
Crappy, but: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xiiG_Anfh8
I do like Auraugu as a villain…
But… I do not favor the villain killing my favorite character, especially since there’s no guarantee she’ll come back this time.
Should this happen – and I acknowledge that I’m powerless to stop it – I’m going to have to change my gravatar to a baeful burning eye of skunk piss.
It’ll be the Stink-Eye for you guys, T and Phil.
Just for dramatics, I’ll even shout “Kaaaaahn”, like in the Trek movie.
(◣_◢)
Hear, hear!
Bandit’s my 2nd fave after the friggin’ Frigginator.
But what if I don’t want the muppet critics tickling my fun-bone?
Sign.
While I don’t have the love for Bandit that most seem to, I believe she’s technically close enough to be in healing influence of the Bough, so there’s a good chance this may not be as final as it looks.
Stop the presses! Someone on the internet might be upset with the direction you take as an author!
(Hey, I like Bandit too, but c’mon…)
I didn’t even know that was possible…
Hasn’t she died once already? Maybe being in close proximity to the staff will heal her.
Okay, I’m done being bummed out by what might happen next. Let’s see what the authors can throw at us – uh, them. The characters, I mean.
Yeh; this (one page) is the fastest my nerves have gone from OK to wrecked in a while.
I think my funnybone is tickling. Could it be the alt text?
Hmm… same here, it seems.
Flying Butt Attack? Is that from “Professional Wrestling” or from Captain Kirk?
The Gnoll is obviously a luchador. So, more on the professional wrestling end of things. And professional mask-wearing end of things, also.
Hyes.
Pro wrestling. The Hemmorhoid Hammer. Anal Attack. Flying Maximus Gluteus. Rectal Wrecking Ball.
Are you reading off of Frigg’s playbook?
It’s… it’s a Leg Drop :|
The other thing dogs do with one leg raised.
…so: Coincidence? Or are you following HH on Facebook?
There are a lot of tributes to a lot of Wrestling Greats I intend to do with Auraugu.
Yeah, I must say I was kinda hoping for a Macho Man memorial elbow drop.
Ohhh! and the Bandit goes down!
yknow Cole, i dont think weve ever seen the Bandit take such a beating since the Byronator took her down at the Savage Arena!
thats right Randy, this is shaping up to be the bloodiest Auraugumania ever! What do you think the Bandit is thinking right now?
i dont think shes thinking much of anything right now Cole.
Hah! and now a word from our sponsor! Feeling down? Cant quite reach? try Syr’nj-Tec’s new Bounding Brew! one swig and youll be on cloud nine! (Syr’nj-Tec is not liable for falling related deaths.)
BAH GAWD
I think Lynxx deserves a Gold Star. :D
This? This was made of win.
50 gold coins and a mushroom.
Wow. He’s just the happiest little doggie ever. One that makes that final maniacal laugh actually kind of fitting.
“Death? No thank you! Been there, done that, came back inexplicably!”
Best appears in two strips. Repeat, Best appears in two strips. At least that’s my forecast.
lets hope the he appears never ever again.
Best turn your hopes elsewhere
he’s been bested once, he’ll be bested again.
You mean like Byron?
And Frigg… she was Bested one and half times, actually.
Call me mean and stuff but i am still rooting for the gnoll.Hurray for Auraugu ,champion of the Fuzzy people.
…what? its a war you know. something like this had to happen sooner or later.
also.as of what we have seen so far what the other group members are doing there are only 2 of them that wasn’t shown and could come to the rescue now. thats right: E-mule and Tombdirt the ultimate super hero dou :D
What about Frigg? She could really frag his plans.
What ? You side with the enemies ? You side with the gnoll ? HERETIC !! HERETIC !! TO THE PYRE !! ^^ *Inquisitio mode on* ^^
@ hellhound
NOBODY expects the spanish inquisition!
Our chief weapon is surprise…surprise and fear…fear and surprise…. Our two weapons are fear and surprise…and ruthless efficiency…. Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency…and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope…. Our *four*…no… *Amongst* our weapons…. Amongst our weaponry…are such elements as fear, surprise…. I’ll come in again.
Poke her with the soft cushions!
Not the comfy chair!
I say ol’ chap! Those spaniards certaintly knows how to yell loudly at their enemies! *Sips tea*
In Frigg’s case, nobody expects the spankish exposition.
BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! You have to boo the bad guys. That is part of wrestling.
Who’s available for rescue? Crap, only frigg and gravedust…
Of course, Gravedust might have been summoned by the dead elves’ spirits, if they’re dead… but that means a quick end for Auraugu, the dwarf doesn’t fuck around, being celibate and all.
Frigg might be looking for a rod of blue-ball negation… that would leave the gnoll a chance to survive, he might be scarred for life, but alive. Since, well, Frigg does fuck around.
Or Auraugu might become a convert of the Church of Frigg, and follow her like a lost puppy.
What’s This?
Our Preferred Pint-sized Pilferer Pounded to a Pulp?
Will the Devious Doggie Deliver a Dire Down?
Tune in next time for “Ruff Time on the Green” Or “Attack from the Grassy Gnoll”
Same Bandit time, same Bandit channel!
(i can’t believe no ones said this yet but.. in reference to the hover text. . .)
/Hulk Hogan Voice
“Oooh Yeeeah!”
OH HYEEEEEEES!
GET IN THE ZOOOOONE FOR MACHO MANIA
quickly, call a Lumberjack!!
Well, good thing Bandit was previously accidentally dosed with healing troll blood while being trisected maybe…
NOW RIP HER HEAD OFF! Uuh… I mean… Go frigg….?
Hm… he’s put down the bough to grab Bandit’s head, so…
Augh!
Aughraughu!
His name reminds me of Wolfies’ (from the Groovy Goolies) yell:
AROOoo-WOOO-EEE!
(Sorry, couldn’t find it on YouTube)
So, they sent the dog to fetch the stick? But to him, it’s not so much the Sacred Bough of Graiya, as a Wand of Portable Bathrooms.
Auraugu took the bough because he wants to be a grassy gnoll.
They made that joke last strip, dammit >P No recycled materials!
I’m afraid I beat you guys in an alt text a long time ago.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUU!1
Gonna guess that she dies, and then comes back to life again, and it gets much HARDER to explain why THIS time around, as another hint towards the revelation of what is happening to THE INCEPTION OF THE GAMER IN THE CELL ON THE 13TH FLOOR OF THE MATRIX UNDER THE VANILLA SKY.
…Paprika.
WHO IS ALSO A LAWNMOWER MAN. FORGOT THAT ONE.
I think we’re approaching MAX HEADROOM available for references, here.
WHO IS SUCKER PUNCHED BY VIDEODROME TIME BANDITS IN BRAZIL
WHO ARE ON THE ORDERS OF THE SMOKING MAN.
WHO HAS TO CATCH THE 3:17 TO YUMA OR HAVE A BAD DAY AT BLACK ROCK WITH ROOSTER COGBURN!
Whoops. Wrong genre.
MY HEAD JUST EXPLODED LIKE IN SCANNERS.
You know that Stephen King sued New Line Cinema to have his name removed from any association with that Lawnmower Man movie? I read the original short story, it had NOTHING to do with computers and virtual reality.
The only explanation we need for Bandit repeatedly dying and respawning is that she’s not one of the Five. She’s a regular player with regular unlimited respawns.
Does that mean there’s an XP or GP penalty? All her loot drops where she dies, and she has to run naked from the last checkpoint to get it back?
Now there’s a mental image. Cue the Ray Stevens.
Apparently she spawns on the spot, but there’s a time-out.
Unless she uses in-game fiat-currency to buy an instant respawn.
Someone call Hacksaw Jim Duggan, He knows how to deal with someone with a stick of wood.
Sigh, I guess that’s what Bandit gets for stalking around alone.
That is the most sad looking Bandit I have seen yet. Losing in mortal combat must really be a horrifying experience.
Oh.
My.
Cog.
Btw… It’s nice to see I’m not the only one who’s very OK with the idea of Best not coming back (at least, not any time soon).
Not while there are still wenches to impregnate in Skyrim…
