The fact your not getting layer’d now is a wake up call. . You aren’t green anymore. Now you need to look at a more long term solution, but don’t ogredo it.
Dwarfs are always the best characters! Gimli, Varric Tethras, Oghren, The Bronzebeards of Ironforge, Thorin Oakenshield, Barundin Stoneheart, all of them, the best.
Most of the time Frigg, when not kicking major ass, is portrayed as a snarky jerk. Yet I love the rare interval when her vulnerability -shown here as a tiny bit of introspection – peeks through. Her relaxed faces in panels one & two & the inset are so childlike and precious.
There wasn’t a time skip between the last two panels. Frigg ignores the last two sentences that Gravedust says in panel three and continues talking in panel four.
“I just asked you to do exactly that! It happened like two seconds ago. Are you startin’ to go senile on us?”
Frigg was actually asking Gravy to help her deal with her jealously problem. She is realizing that she is getting wound up with how other people are getting together and she isn’t. Sounds alot more like she is basically asking for therapy.
The part Frigg’s probably thinking of in panel two and a quarter is when it was the half-ogre, Frigg and the two ███████ █████████.
Basically the half-ogre was ████████ her █████ ████ and the ██████ were priming the ██████ of a ████-████ at the same time. Then, once the ██████ had finished priming the ████-████ the entire thing ████ ████ and made everyone ████████.
But crititizing people’s appearance is obviously fine! 9_9 Also, your phone is actually a hammer.
– Look, I feel you on using gay as a negative term. You obviously don’t have to like Frigg. That’s up to you. What I don’t think is that Frigg actually has anything against gay persons. She uses the term without reflection. If she were male, she might have said “for pussies”. Because that’s the great thing about Frigg. She’s written as a sort of commentary on genderspecific heroism & attitudes. She does & says the sort of things that are normally associated with male action heroes, only genderflipped. Her comments above are typical dude-talk, yet totally believable for a female character. It’s just that she’s a type of person that’s generally written as male.
Frigg is and has always been an offensive individual. She constantly says rude and needling things to get under peoples’ skins because she has to be 100% the alpha bitch in the room, even if only for the sake of keeping up appearances.
This is the core pillar of her entire character. Why is anybody surprised by this?
I dunno. This post kind of baffles me because she’s called people dykes, fags, retarded, and gay before. We’ve had plenty of offensive content from her with no signs that she’ll ever change.
Of course she does. If she didn’t, it would be pretty out of character. You should be concerned if Frigg’s behavior is treated by the story as a 100% good thing. It’s not, and never has been. She’s a decent person with a healthy helping of character flaws.
And yet I’d bet she treats gay people the same way she treats anyone else.
Y’know – the way she treats people who work with her and/or look up to her, i.e. mocking their feelings, laughing in their faces, reminding them of their failures.
She’s never been a nice person. A good one, sure – she’ll defend people without even needing to consider it – but NICE?
She is a competitive musclehead first and foremost, literally to a fault. It was heavily implied that her Real World personality is exactly the same, too.
So what would it cost to make sure Frigg’s expression when she’s think about the half-ogre NEVER sees the light of day again? (except for a gravatar. And it’s own line of glassware.)

So puns, such ogre :D
MUCH REWARD. WOW.
Yes! The BEST character returns!
Yeah, I’ve missed that half-ogre too.
I don’t see Bandit anywhere. :p
nonono he is clearly speaking about The Landshark Cultist.the best main char that ever existed.even thought he doesn’t actually appear here.
Nah, we’ll probably go to the troll warlord, he was cool
Yeah, I didn’t realize I missed Gravedust. This will be great!
Dwarfs are always the best characters! Gimli, Varric Tethras, Oghren, The Bronzebeards of Ironforge, Thorin Oakenshield, Barundin Stoneheart, all of them, the best.
An don’t forget Doc, Dopey, Grumpy, Sneepy, Sleazy, Happy & Bashful!
Or should that be Gropey & Dumpy – I keep forgetting.
But didnt Best die?;D
no, he fell into a what appeared to be an energy vortex.
Speaking of the best character, the inset in panel 2 is genius! Frigg all y’all you disagree!
Yes… Tombdirt is back.
Most of the time Frigg, when not kicking major ass, is portrayed as a snarky jerk. Yet I love the rare interval when her vulnerability -shown here as a tiny bit of introspection – peeks through. Her relaxed faces in panels one & two & the inset are so childlike and precious.
You notice it’s pretty much always Gravedust that has to put up with that from her, though?
Because he’s the best.
The inset is the bestestest
I don’t quite get that last panel. If you’re implying a time skip I think you need to be a little more obvious about it.
There wasn’t a time skip between the last two panels. Frigg ignores the last two sentences that Gravedust says in panel three and continues talking in panel four.
“I just asked you to do exactly that! It happened like two seconds ago. Are you startin’ to go senile on us?”
I am pretty sure Gravedust has always been rather old. No time skip necessary.
How did Gravedust go from “Let us begin” to closing up his book and asking Syr’nj for sleep potions?
I think Gravedust’s step 1 involves the use of sleeping potions.
And that Frigg’s response means she’s as confused about his methods as we are.
Unless Frigg’s sex appeal has died, what exactly is a Mystic supposed to do that would help her?
2 sleeping potions. Sounds like some kind of dream walking.
or she was able to ragebarf all of the spirit’s bane out of her and so gravy expects itll take 2 roofies to keep frigg down?
Either that or Gravey really has gone senile and he’s going to roofie Scipio and E-Merl.
Can you imagine them going dream-walking, and running into the spirit-beast of Frigg’s libido/va-jay-jay? Hijinx ensues.
Frigg was actually asking Gravy to help her deal with her jealously problem. She is realizing that she is getting wound up with how other people are getting together and she isn’t. Sounds alot more like she is basically asking for therapy.
No, she was asking for help in not caring (or talking about her non-existant sex-life)
Or maybe she was just thinking “let’s you just drop them pants”.
I mean, hell, when you’re hard up, you’re hard up …
Heh. Hard.
ANY Day
ANY Way
ANY TIME
FRIGG ME BABY!
Any way? Are you sure you want her long, woody mace handle there?
This comic is awesome & Frigg is the awesomest character! :D
– Today’s strip opens like a diary room segment on Big Brother. I’m sure that was intentional.
*reads alt text*
… can’t unsee…
She took it to Gravedust. I am not the least bit surprised, but I am the most bit amused. :)
Maaaan, I wanted to hear what she did to the half-ogre!
The part Frigg’s probably thinking of in panel two and a quarter is when it was the half-ogre, Frigg and the two ███████ █████████.
Basically the half-ogre was ████████ her █████ ████ and the ██████ were priming the ██████ of a ████-████ at the same time. Then, once the ██████ had finished priming the ████-████ the entire thing ████ ████ and made everyone ████████.
Fanfiction.net needs writers.
To make a long story short, you could just say “Frigg ya’ all !”
Y’all got Frigged.
If you can’t handle a rowdy ride, don’t mess with a ginger, amirite?
Caring is gay ? Well then, let’s stop caring about you, you horse-ugly red-head.
But crititizing people’s appearance is obviously fine! 9_9 Also, your phone is actually a hammer.

– criticizing – >_<
Sigh. Frigg uses gay as a negative term.
Yeah :/
True dat, but this IS Frigg we’re talking about here. Her NOT calling something gay would’ve been more of a surprise.
Frigg is and has always been an offensive individual. She constantly says rude and needling things to get under peoples’ skins because she has to be 100% the alpha bitch in the room, even if only for the sake of keeping up appearances.
This is the core pillar of her entire character. Why is anybody surprised by this?
I dunno. This post kind of baffles me because she’s called people dykes, fags, retarded, and gay before. We’ve had plenty of offensive content from her with no signs that she’ll ever change.
I’m still shocked that people are still shocked that Frigg is a troll. Figuratively.
Of course she does. If she didn’t, it would be pretty out of character. You should be concerned if Frigg’s behavior is treated by the story as a 100% good thing. It’s not, and never has been. She’s a decent person with a healthy helping of character flaws.
In short, even the alignment of Lawful Good does not necessarily equate with “polite” or “respectful.”
And yet I’d bet she treats gay people the same way she treats anyone else.
Y’know – the way she treats people who work with her and/or look up to her, i.e. mocking their feelings, laughing in their faces, reminding them of their failures.
She’s never been a nice person. A good one, sure – she’ll defend people without even needing to consider it – but NICE?

So many avatar worthy facial expressions. Gotta love Frigg!
That is literally the least safe way to casually sit on a stool ever invented.
The sleep potion gets mixed up with Love Potion No. 9.
Gravedust transforms into the Guildy version of Casanunda: Gravy Train!
Is it just me, or is he holding his book protectively, as if to shield it from Frig and her memories?
Well, he obviously wouldn’t want it to spontaneously transform into a dirty magazine now would he?
So what would it cost to make sure Frigg’s expression when she’s think about the half-ogre NEVER sees the light of day again? (except for a gravatar. And it’s own line of glassware.)
