That’s no mountain Dirk, that’s a volcano ready to erupt!
and volcanoes are hard to aim
Remember, if you don’t use all your barbarian rages per day, they don’t roll over!
Gives a new meaning to “Rage, rage against the dying of the light…”
Uh oh, something tells me *nobody’s” coming out of this without at least a few bruises…or splinters in Mimic’s case…
Where’s Rick Jones when you need him?
Does Robby understand the Halfling’s cant?
Probably not in any legitimate sense, but he’s also no fool. If a conversation starts going in a wildly different direction, or much different emotions and body language are being used than a literal interpretation (i.e. above where Kris in a face value interpretation would be pissing himself over rain) it doesn’t take a genius intellect to realize that SOMETHING is going on. It’s finding out what that is the real challenge.
Maybe not exactly, but he named their team the Mountain Giants for a reason.
You can hear the insurance premiums pre-emptively rising from here.
That’s no mountain!
It’s a trap!
Kind of feel bad for whoever THAT barbarian rage is going to spill all over.
Could be all right, if it hits the right target.
IF.
(And the bar is going to see some damage, regardless.)
… this is the case where the people of the village at the bottom of the volcano either pack their belonings and move to another Island or start looking for a proper virgin… 😮
I have caught up! This is a hilarious webcomic, I’m glad I found it through a link on poppy-opossum.com. I’ve spent the last three days chewing through the archives, in a quest to figure out who the cute elf was, and I’m glad to say I did 🙂
Cool!
Uh-oh, someone’s about to go full Red Knight.
Who’s the suicidal fool who tied that green cap on his head…?
I’m pretty sure that was the … “fuse” … that’ll light-up this explosion.
If they pay attention…
…if they have any sense of survival at all…
…they’ll find a way to trick that big, scary “cloud” into playing the role of the “last straw”…
…AKA: the primary focus of this “mountain’s” berserker-rage.
On a separate note, how much more time must Robespierre spend in the games, to work-off the rest of his court-appointed sentence?
Presumably until the end of this story arc.
It is notable that he is not mad at Rusty or Cube.
This is because Rusty has never tried to outwit him or talk back to him, and Cube doesn’t talk period. It also helps that Cube is a fine warrior, a fine gnomish baseball player, and quite possibly the one thing that might scare Robespierre.
Looks like that halfing didn’t put a single rank in “Sense motive”
Question is: Is that thieves’ cant, or are they ghostwise halflings?
