      Why can I see Frigg telling Gravy that… And that is definately his facial expression for “Consumerist Pig”.

    I am really liking the guy who randomly stabs other cultists. He seems nice.

        Turns out all others are peace-makers and he is the only cultist.

    I wonder if there’s some sort of “bag limit” on random stabbings at these conventions and this guys just blowing through his all at once.

      Usually you only have to kill about ten or so, then you can go turn in the quest, get your gold and experience points, and go on with your unlife.

      Unless you have to harvest organs. Arthas in Icecrown, how do so many people walk around conventions without livers?

        -sighs- As a Warrior, it surprises me how many people fail to realize this. In all your wild hacking, burning, acid flinging, fist smashing, exploding and sending wild animals to maul your opponents, you often end up rupturing perfectly good organs or bodily parts.

        What good do you think a sliced heart or melted eyeball is to the Royal Apothecaries?

        You win.

        (But I’d still add an ‘ly’ to “Ritual.”)

      If it wasn’t in the game universe, I’d say Shiva’s the obvious choice, but I’m guessing it’d have to be something that’s actually in the mythological lore of their world.

    On an artsy note, just realized the benefit of having our troll-on-the-ground shove his robe over his pauldrons; they go with his friends’ gauntlets and make them easy to spot in the crowd. Nice touch.

    As a person who reads webcomics, often my eyes will inadvertently glance at the last panel, read it even. Disappointed with myself for how this breaks narrative flow, I try to ameliorate the problem by not “really” reading the last panel, just kinda glancing over it semi-apologetically.

    So when I see today’s last panel inadvertently? I’m like “OMIGOSH THE ORC IS STABBING THE HUMAN D:”
    Then I actually get to it, and digest it…and see that that’s not happening at all.

    Well played, creators.

      I drew a comic the other day, where the panels are cyclical, and you can start at any of them. :)

    That remnds me of the time when I got some quests to dress up like the Twilight’s Hammer and infiltrate. My plan was to just go in there and kill them all, but no, my superiors had to get clever.

    I’m thinking Stabby McStabford there ran out of patience. I feel for you, guy.

    So what’s the collective noun for cultists? I can’t choose between “culmination” and “clusterfuck”.
