      In western Gastonia born and raised
      In the stable was where I spent most of my days
      Chillin’ out maxin’ relaxin’ all cool
      And sweeping some horse dung, outside the fool
      When this little guy, whose eyes were no good
      Started making stories ’bout my chosen-one-hood
      I bankrupted one little town and my ego got huge
      said, “You’re joining an adventuring party in the role of ‘douche'”

      Avalanche? Only a %20 movement penalty, %5 hit point as treated as fall damage, and random local teleport.
      That still leaves you with 2 move and an action.
      Sure you can have a full out brawl in an avalanche, why not!

    It’s great how these pages show with fewer words than usual just what an unrepentant vainglorious ill-tempered piece of SHIT Best has always been, just barely capable of covering his disgusting disaster-causing personality with a thick venire of bravado.

    I’ll pray for a future page with Syr beating the piss out of him for attacking her husband aka the ONLY person who ever wasted their time trying to save his arrogant ass.
    In case you haven’t learned the ‘moral’ yet Mr Hackenslasher: Next/3rd time god does you a favor and sends Payet Best plummeting to his death so the universe can be rid of his sickening bullshit-> LET. HIM. FALL.

    Now we’ve come full circle.

    Frigg is pulling at Gravedust’s clothes.

    Byron and Best are beating the tar out of each other.

    Syr’Nj is neck deep in a crash-landing warg’s rectum.

    All is back to normal.

      Can’t unsee, that’s hilarious. Unfortunately, I agree with Fairportfan, I think the avalanche is pushing her toward the viewer feet-first.

      Same here dude, Best is a MASSIVE downgrade from WAV as a character but at least we were kinda ‘warned’ something like this would go down eventually in the story.

        Unfortunately, whether you personally consider it an improvement or not, it is no longer possible to disable automatic updates. You will be migrated to Windows Best whether you like it or not.

    He must truly hate Byron to be reacting this way. WAV was reuntied with Frig, Gravedust, and Syr’ng and none of them reawakened his old memories.

      Yeah, but none of them ever did him the offense of trying to save his life. Byron did and even though he had the decency to fail, it’s still rude.

      Amongst the glaring personality defects that make Best the worst member by far of the original 5 is a short unjustified temper, hard to say if he ‘truly hates’ Byron here or is just having another one of his pathetic mantrums.

    that was the best way to deal with their enemy. Though he is careless, he really knows how to bury his opponents like it’s snow problem.

    Whew, Best dropped the axe. Hopefully in a moment, when the snow settles, they can bury the hatchet.

    Byron, however, should keep his daggers.
