Either he’s insane, or has antidote. You’d be surprised, many of the more careful (and surviving) poisoners keep antidote. He’s a coward; I suspect he fears poisonous death. …Although I concede he can show fiht at times.
Perhaps he’s panicking — after all, the witnesses could give him A LOT of trouble — and even thinks that it’s worth the risk. He MIGHT make his saving throw.
So…with a single feather, she can set off a chain of events that causes him to stab himself and let his quarry escape. Does he really think a bit of darkness is going to slow her down, hmmm?
You can do these things when you have a good Armor Class and the ability to completely refill your HP two or three times over before you run out of spell slots (at least if you roll well). Team Cleric is good at the “be invincible until your opponent gets bored and wander off” school of military strategy. 🙂
Here is a thought, everybody just takes for granted that Dorilys is a human… but relating to her green skin, what if she is an Aasimar with Planetar Heritage? or what if she is just actually a Planetar? 0.o

Someone who’s been reminding us of this this whole level, perhaps.
Hey, I have that sword in BotW!
It’s not very good.
Sir Malevolus, I think this is one conflict which you should probably a-void.

If he had an antidote he wouldn’t have said “Oh no, that’s not good” a few comics ago.
Perhaps the poison effects the nervous system, with early side effects of irrational, paranoid, or psychotic behavior…
Ya know, unless that’s a supernatural ability, she can dispel it.
Er, counter it. Dispelling is a maybe.

I can’t help thinking that pre-death Madeline would be a GREAT help here.
“I yam Emerald Dorilys. You keeled my feather. Prepare to die.”
That’s the thing with shots in the dark; always one step away from you, and always creeping up on you.
Voices are calling from inside his head. (He can hear them ya’know) vanishing memories of things that were said, they can’t try to hurt him now.
But just like the wounded and when it’s too late, they’ll remember they’ll surrender.
Does this mean the rest of them hate him now?
I see that Derek is not the only cleric willing to step between a murderer and his victim(s) to talk him down.

Quick, someone cast magic missile! Attack the darkness!

Naw, she’s human. She just wears a luck stone with the curse of turning her green.
Was that mentioned in the comic previously, or are you just making it up?
No.
I mentioned that she’s human, which is true — she’s a Tuckerization.
I shall merely mention that the guess about why she’s green is wrong. I told Mike R. He might tell you in future comics.
You mentioned it? When? Is she your character?
“Making it up”? Heavens no! I prefer “spontaneous raconteuring”…
Yup. My first D&D character. Human cleric.
Tuckerization? Please define for the benefit of this ignorant wretch.

“Turn On the Dark,” is that a reference to that abysmal Spider-Man musical that crashed and burned on Broadway a few years ago?
I think it’s a reference to the fact that, thanks to magic, darkness is literally something you can just turn on.
At least with a successful Charisma check. (Erotic is slicing a feather in half….)
Looks like in this universe, the sword is mightier than the quill…
Oh right, Blackguard…
