    Based in the different skin tones, hair colors, and accents, I think Bayen and Brayen aren’t originally from Battleshire, maybe even “adopted” lil’ Byron.

      Or considering roughly 4 different skin tones in the last panel, either the place was a melting pot or all three of them are foriegners.

      “Adopted” lil’ Byron? Yes.

      I don’t think the exact arrangement has been made clear, but they’re not his actual brothers, no.

      Aren’t they fair skinned because they’re redhead?

      Or possibly it is Byron that wasn’t originally from Battleshire, but was too young to remember it and it never came up.

    If that man is carrying a bag of Kobolds, I hope he cashes them in before the market for them plummets. Nobody wants those Kobold Krisspies

      The great kobold market crash isn’t for another decade, these are the roaring 20s of kobold killing.

        Of course, soon everyone will get into kobold futures trading, selling the hides of kobolds that they haven’t killed yet (and in some cases, that haven’t been born yet), and the kobold bubble will burst.

        Also, are kobolds born or hatched?

          The Classic D&D kobold is a hatchling. Of course, the mythological kobold is just a German goblin.

            That depends on just how “classic” you mean. In 1st and 2nd edition, kobolds were just a smaller “dog-faced” type of goblin, as seen here. Tony DiTerlizzi drew an updated 2e kobold (second image here) which, while still “dog-faced” in the classic sense, may have inspired the 3rd edition reimagining of kobolds as a reptilian race (considering the similarities in body shape between the two).

    This couldn’t possibly end any way but happily. Calling it now, happy endings ahoy.

        The entire rest of the comic has been a red herring. INTRODUCING fun times with Bayen Brayen and Byron! A comic the whole family can enjoy.

          You’re all going to regret that. You’ve just triggered a horrible April’s Fools joke.

          They’re going to run the comic as if Nothing happened to the brothers, and everything was great, UNTIL April First.

    Man, it sure would be awful if a plague of madness made these characters kill each other, but what are the chances of that happening?
