    Okay, Mimic, you got that off your chest. Now stop whining.

      Mimic probably won’t stop whining, he’s pretty lippy.

      He had to get that off his chest, otherwise he’d become unhinged.

        It might be too late. He’s already something of a basket case.

            The puns aren’t so horrible that we would need to hide them in a box.

      Hadn’t noticed that, but yeah, nice touch.

      Of course, you’ll notice that Stabs has no such consistency… as befits her name, she seems to be carrying an assortment of anything that’s good for stabbing.

        If it stabs, it’s fabs.

    Stabs is a rogue.

    Without a flanking buddy, she has no way to win. Even if derek never attacks her.
    Rogues are so dependent of sneak attacks that they are even more scared when fighting ozzes and ubdead, than when a Wizard run oout of spells

      Not at all. Sure, a basic rogue build is dependent on either surprise, or having allies for flanking. But most editions offer some options to get around that limitation – e.g. my current 5e rogue can also apply sneak attack when fighting a single opponent one-on-one.

      Also, I should remind you that after Mimic and friends abandoned Stabs alone in a dungeon full of terrifying monsters, she killed them *all*… I believe she bought her current tavern with the loot. She’s bad-ass…

      Go look Back at Stabs’s First Appearance, she did nit seem to need Flanking Buddies back then

      Feint, Diversion to Hide, Use Magic Device, Tumble, Poisons…

      Heck, they could have even reset a trap on the way here and we wouldn’t have known it!

        Yup… but she isn’t very smart.

        Should she be and adventurer worth of her salt, she would stay in melee instead of ranged combat, so he would be forced to cast defensively. Maybe he could lose a few turns, or be forced to cast his lowest spells.

        Meh, INT is usually a Dump Stat for rogues. Most of them are comfortable with their 8+INT ranks

    Huh, a move earth spell after the ever classic hold person. And no slippery mind to help. Sadly, hero on hero fights tend to be great on freeing the real dangers. Especially with rogues accidentally needing an edge. Or just staying out of jail they cant get out of..

    Looks like the Green Sox are getting beat red, black, and blue by wights.

      Pretty sure they’re wraiths. They’re called wraiths and wraiths have a higher challenge wrating which seems appropriate for these guys. Plus they look like wraiths.

    Next episode, Mimic gets arrested for eating that elf.

      Yes, that’s only allowed if the elf is still considered in play… then Mimic is considered a “hazard”.

    He just can’t help his elf.

    At first I was gonna say “IN COMING!”, but it looks more like Mimic is going to catch a snack…

    To shut up a whiner, stuff something or someone in their mouth.
    Although I think he prefers iron rations.
