Betcha Lantern Guy is the killer.
Dang, called it before I could.
Beat me to it.
You know, you two don’t hafta fight over pointing it out first.
*lantern glows*
Yes but can it find my keys? Damn keys.
And does it know why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?
And how many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of the Tootsie Pop?
Forty-two.
No, that’s just the meaning of life. Entirely different subjects.
Trick question: THEY DON’T.
Actually, yes, it probably could. You’d just have to ask the right questions.
You lost the last set of keys being used in the Federation? I’d think the Captain of the Enterprise would be a little more careful than that.
Well, that answers my ask an adventurer question.
It was so interesting a question to us that we decided to answer it in the main comic.
Really? Wow.
That’s the story I’m sticking to, anyway.
But would you stick to that story in front of Lectrus?
HMMMMM.
What if he was actually telling the truth?
Thus the alt-text.
But maybe it’s the Lantern of Epimenides? It lights up whenever someone starts throwing logical paradoxen around?
Maybe it’s just a normal god damn lantern and he’s having a yank of our leg.
… or is that just what he wants us to think?!
He’s actually working for HR, trying to crash the servers by way of logic puzzle overload. That, or cause enough players to quit in a huff, leaving the Five without an army.
As I’m viewing this on a touch-screen device, I don’t have access to the alt-text. What does it say?
“Ugh. Fucking logic puzzles.”
Listen to me carefully, Norman. I…am…lying.
As a long-time Star Trek fan, I approve of this comment.
That’s not a lie or a logical paradox or whatever. It’s just a linguistic failure.
I’m ashamed to admit I had to look up the quote and I’ve seen the entirety of TOS.
Change your icon. Change it NOW.
I mean seriously, making smoke come out of computers was basically Kirk’s superpower!
But Picard’s was to make smoke come out of queues.
And now we know the cultist had a mole in the adventurer’s guild for some time now. Right?
Rachel has a mole, but I don’t think she’s a cultist…
*cough*
She’s not a cultist. It’s her mole.
Lectrus is totally named after the Electro boardgame, right? You know, the game where you have to make a connection between two points (question & answer) on a box & if you’re right, a LED lights up.
Hmm, if he uses that lantern to read tomes, does that mean he needs to constantly lie…or does it light up when he reads something that is incorrect or erroneous?
It’s useful for when he reads fiction. Not so much when he is trying to do his taxes. ;-)
For some people, the two are synonymous.
I am NOT wearing pink underpants with purple hearts on it.
…
Shit.
Silk? ’cause silk is super comfy.
Not very stretchy though.
I deny that I wasn’t unaware of any misdeeds not involving my lack of acknowledgement or of any actions that didn’t involve my indirect action in their execution or my direct action in their lack of execution.
Lantern: “Ok, time out, I need to think about this one.”
Look! It’s the Deus Ex Machistick
…you don’t actually know what that term means, do you :p
God in the Machine Stick?
I think he was going for “matchstick.” Because light.
A complete stranger, who happened to be the one who found the body, offers the use of a magic lantern which has just what they need to solve the mystery. Hmmm… I wonder if this guys has some magic beans he’d like to sell Byron while he’s at it.
Fortunately Byron looks like he’s not quite buying it.
Lectrus isn’t a complete stranger, they’ve known him for quite a while now. He helped with the founding of the guild.
But yes, he is suddenly suspicious.
To say nothing of the guy leaning nonchalantly on the back wall of the moider scene.
Time to repeat what I said on page 15:
“Honestly, Diogenes?”
I look forward to more Diogenes-like behavior from Lectrus: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diogenes_of_Sinope#Obscenity
Yeeee lets hf with the honest cynic!
I bet he doesn’t keep that thing in his bedroom. “Aw, baby, you know I love yo-GAHHHHHHHH”
So you need to ask the correct incorrect question…
Were you or were you not the one that didn’t murder this man that is here on not the night you didn’t commit a murder?
You don’t even need to ask a question. Just line up the town and go down the line accusing each person of being the murderer. Eventually it won’t light up — unless something really weird is going on.
That’s the same sort of logic that makes a battle ax my lock pick of choice.
Plot twist, the whole town murdered him. The guy was kind of a dick.
“The Greater Good!”
I think a few of us might benefit from clarification, myself included: is this lantern a magical polygraph or an omniscient item?
Actually, when phrased that way I think the answer seems obvious.
Normally these sorts of things in gaming come with a condition like “the speaker was knowingly lying” (Working like a polygraph sort of) plus some rules to try to avoid easy methods of purposefully tricking others into lying for you. The usual way to beat them is to make simplest true statement possible that directs the interviewer’s attention elsewhere, or somehow modifying your own memory or fooling its ability to read your intent.
the tricky thing if the lantern lit by truth he migth use it with teh sentences he spoke to decive them because he is the killer so he can manipulate the interogiation
Wait. Go back two pages. Is that just the skyline, or… is his lantern lighting up when he says there was a murder?
Just the skyline.
Logic puzzles. Amiright?
Totally right.
