I love when a plan comes together in the spur of the moment :D

Thanks a lot, SongCoyote. That means we’re accomplishing the goals we set out to fulfill!

I never really got that anyway. Isn’t a savage beating suffficent? Must one go full rape? It’s like… going that direction invalidates their ability to fight, or be seen as one of the strongest fighters because it renders the fight part meaningless by reduces them to their sexuality in yet another way.

Or in this case, another author would turn the wicked nuns into some sort of lesbian sex cult. Let’s… let’s just keep it at evil nuns who muscle their way into control.

Incidentally….

To the authors: there is an underlying theme in a lot of literature – comics, novels, and short stories alike – that in order to show a female character truly beaten down (as close as Frigga ever was to that) that she must have sex forced on her as part of it.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for avoiding that path. Frigga was brutalized, and that is terrible… but not in such a stereotypical way that can, in spite of itself, further the rape culture that so dominates too many parts of the world today.

That you make these strong women characters (thanks, Joss) and then give them struggles without needing to rely on that terrible crutch is only part of why this is now one of my favorite comics on the web.

Light and laughter,

I didn’t remember about it ether. (In fact, I still don’t remember it.)

Where has Frigg shown an outright hatred of evil? Also most normal people do not care for evil, that doesn’t make them good necessarily. A chaotic neutral character could hate slavery as much as chaotic good. What defines the deference is what actions a person is willing to take and reasons why. I’m not sure if we have seen enough to make a judgement call on either way of her being Chaotic Neutral or Chaotic Good. What makes this a questionable action is how she gives a speech on how things could be changed and be better, but does not allow it to happen. It could be because she doesn’t think head nun can change, but she gives the nun hope that it can.
