Midnight is the perfect time to start illegal work!
“Do a good job, and I’ll get you some of that shit my old gang and I smoked once.”
WOW – Lookit these cool characters! Wonder who the nun and the brown haired dude are? Can’t wait to check the tags and find out-
Awwww, MAN! Yer EVIL, Phil! EVIL, I say!
I thought green hair was Tobias Gnip-Gnop at first, but if he’s not tagged I suppose thats not the case.
I think he survived, but he might be under quarantine. Perhaps this one is related.
It is him!
The nun clearly is a Machine Priestess of the Omnisiah. The brown-haired gentleman is an adventuring rogue by the name of Lyrion Tannister.
A Tannister never pays his debts.
Fantastic.
And so is your Gravatar
Alternatively, she could be a priestess of the Cult of Cyriss.
Oh, look! It’s Rachel Gnome! A gnome Byron and a very buff blonde Frigg gnome. Not sure who the carrot lookalike guy (or gal) would be…
Eh, after a while all adventurers’ parties start to look the same.
BTW, for the connoisseurs, a perfect three-point landing.
Can’t blame APs for being like that. There are specific roles to be filled in them, after all.
Ah, don’t explain the joke!
:-)
Greater people than me wrote about it. Example:
– Phil Masters, Discworld RPG: “small mixed parties of thugs, kleptomaniacs, god-botherers and [magic school] derelicts”
– Tarquin over at Order of the Stick had a few good lines about this as well. And on how, when one member of the party suffers something irremediable, a smathering of wannabe adventurers of similar class and level will be availableat the next Inn.
Now, more seriously: it could really be that Bandit is trying to “re-create” her old adventuring party, consciously or not, and select her new partners for their likeness to the old ones. Meeting her former partners may result in some awkward conversation…
Per the scrawniness and formal wear, gnomE-Merl.
Obviously the green one is Syr’nj (because green). And maybe the other lady is more of a Gravedust type than a Rachel.
Tobias would correspond to E-Merl or Best. Berta (presumed) could fill in for Frigg or Scip. The nun looks like Rachel, but could presumably fill Gravy’s role as well. There’s nobody on the old Team Bandit to match the last guy with, but he’s a dead ringer for (a shorter) Byron.
No Scipio equivalent, and no Gravedust… I don’t know. It seems like they’re
8)
A little short.
Wait, someone below me already made that joke. My bad.
It was an easy mistake. One that can be
over looked
One of us should be the “bigger man.”
I think that one’s actually a lemming.
Looks Bandit’s gang finding skills came up a little short. Though I’m sure they only ask for half of what the other guys did.
Well, cog me with a sprocket.
And call it a screw.
There’s something about this site that makes it pretty much the slowest-loading web page I normally visit. Is it just me? Am I accessing it during high-traffic times? Because sometimes it’s fine, but 70% of the time (admittedly usually between 12-2 am, EST), it takes about 3-7 minutes to load the entire thing. Which is weird, because it’s not exactly a densely packed website.
It takes a little under 5 seconds for me, which is fairly average for an image-heavy site like this. If you don’t mind me asking, where do you live, and what kind of connection do you have? I’d expect that kind of time over satellite or phone line.
I live in the panhandle of Florida and I’ve got a fairly decent connection. This website is the only site I have trouble with. I can stream Netflix and Amazon Video in HD with no issues, and play YouTube while playing an MMO and not have a drop in quality for either. It’s solely this site, and mostly when loading the images.
Once I get the image loaded the first time, it’s a lot faster, but… Yeah.
I’m having problems too lately.
When did you first notice?
Ever since the layered image, with the glass reflection, the site has been loading slow for me. The image loads like old dial-up internet….and just Guilded Age is doing it.
Last week or two … but it’s only this site and dumbingofage.com, and pretty much only when I use my old XP laptop at home (they work on my phone at home, and also on my Mac at work).
I’ve had problems lately too. Especially when I feel like pillaging the archive. That’s when the latency issues really seem to hit.
I haven’t even wanted to try an archive binge.
It’s not Adblock, either. I’ve tried with it on, I’ve tried with it off, I’ve tried in a different browser, and I’ve still got the same lag.
Have you or anyone else having issues tried clearing out your cache and/or cookies? That might help.
Yes, it only made it worse.
Same for me here. And it started only some weeks ago.
I love that Bashmeister Berta has a tattoo of herself on her arm. A+ self-image, Berta!
It’s her Ma.
Krushmeister Karla?
Typo in the title text. I’m guessing you guys meant “not right now”
That far right gnome reminds me of Peter Dinklage waaaaaaaaaaay too much.
He’s not a gnome, he’s just a short man. If you’ll note his ears are not pointed.
so he literally is Peter Dinklage
That entire building was designed precisely so that Bandit could do what she just did.
I like to imagine that after she hooked it the rail was on the shallow side so she had to swing and bounce a bit to get it started.
SPY!!.. I meant.. HOBBIT!!!!
Is that Tobias or not? D: The lack of tags confuses me.
Now he’s tagged. But is Tobias a girl? He looks like a girl here.
Mebbe he’s just bishonen?
or maybe gender isn’t binary
I sure hope that Bashmeister Berta is the old lady with the staff.
I also hope that none of them get in the way of my Bandit/Tobias ship. Bandias? Tobbit?
You know, give the one on the far right a blond dye job, and he’d look like Tyrion Lannister.
With this group, there’s nothing so low they can’t stoop to.
and here in this last shot you’ll see Peter Dinklage in the foregroud
Ok, I say it here: Berta is an alt of Frigg. And that gnome priest is an alt of Rachel. Somebody’s got to say it!
Let’s see: a bard(?), one warrior, one cleric (Cog), and one attorney.
All set.
Hehehe… love the new group. Toby! I love he is back and in Bandit’s group. *nudge* *wink* Plus the new faces seem interesting characters we’re all wanting to know more of! Great.
Spidergnome, spidergnome…
