Laz has clearly been training for this his entire life.
Oh also that shameless lilith/kalindra fanservice image has been made into a wallpaper and is available in the gallery. It’s been a fairly productive Spring break – just five more weeks of classes and then I’ll have summer off(not willingly, actually, thanks California Republicans) and that’ll give me some time to really get a buffer going. The good news is I’ll have a ton of side content, but I doubt I’ll be going back to 2x a week updates until fall or winter. I hope everyone is at least enjoying the higher quality.
Eshi, you seem confused. Risking your life pointlessly by butting heads with an obstacle rather than finding a way around it if you can doesn’t make sense.. If what your’e looking for is that important to you, you can’t get it and use it if your’e dead. Exaggerated personal honor usually gets in the way of progress. So, shut up, already and let the smart little demon child help you…..
COme on, Eshita. This is how the Tomb Raider does it
Laz is shaping up to be my kinda gamer. Tomb Raider, fantasy adventure games, possibly a dash of survival horror thrown in (run around avoiding the monsters so you can find your way though improbable numbers of doors locked by amazingly difficult-to-solve puzzles that involve strange keys and/or household/not-so-household objects used in creative ways)… Yeah. If it weren’t for his endless sarcasm, I’d really like to hang out with this guy.
Here is a question. In anyway is that chair going to become a recurring character? Or at least the chair and the stick should be Laz’s weapons. Oh and I almost forgot… where did the chair come from?
Funny, my first thought was of Indiana Jones using the gun on the guy brandishing the sword in one scene, thus making short work of what could have been long action sequence. If you don’t like the rules, change the game.
The original script for the movie did call for a long and complicated sword fighting scene, but after one practice session Harrison Ford argued that if he was Indy he would just shoot the guy, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg thought that his solution did fit the character of Indy and allowed the change, thus leading to one of my favorite scenes out of all three movies. It just goes to show, if you find an easier way of doing something then do it the easy way, I just hope that the stick doesn’t break before they have to get back out of the temple.
I remember reading Ford was pretty sick with dysentery, and when faced with that sequence on that day, asked “Can’t I just shoot him?” Wonder if that’s true or just “mythos”…
*Doo Doo Doo DOOOOOOO!*
Laz has obtained the Deku Stick!
And to think, all Link could think to do with it was light stuff on fire.
Get me a lever long enough, and I shall move the world.
I get in SO much trouble with my D&D group with stuff like this. If the DM didn’t want my character mind controlling the guards into disabling all the traps and leading us down to the big bad guy, he shouldn’t have let me make an illusionist/telepath. Similarly, if the rogue is out sick, I fail to see how using a crowbar and barbarian rage together doesn’t solve the problem of not having somebody who can open locks.
I see another advantage to Laz’ way. There is a good chance they may have to go back again in a great hurry, as in running away from something big and ugly. You really don’t want a big whirly-ma-jig in your way then.
I have to say, Indiana Jones could probably learn something from Laz. And I never thought I’d say that about -anyone-.
I wonder if Indiana Jones would do things any differently if he took a minor in engineering?
I just want to know where he learned to use a whip like that!
Somewhere in the world, there is an Indiana Jones BDSM backstory fanfic being made. And it’s all your fault.
The video games always help >.>
>.> Training, right. How many video games did he play over the course of his life?
If there’s even an alien invasion, I’m pretty sure all we’d need to do is unleash our preteen gamers on them.
Haha so true!
if aliens invade i could defeat them alone.
I think you would need three lives and another live every 1,000 kills
Well, it seems like a perfectly sensible way to pass the “Trials” to me.
A good thing this is a realm of magic. Otherwise I’d be forced to start wondering who was keeping all this stuff oiled and ready to go.
Smart move, save your energy for later for like out running from things with large mouths and many teeth

Eshita does seem a little proud, doesn’t she?
It’s much smarter to jam the fan than to try dodging fast moving blades, Eshita.

The more immature they are, the more character development hits them in the face like a lead pipe.
Oh, yeah. And it’s not necessarily the sarcasm that bothers me, just the…. well…. the average 13-year-old-guy disease.
Gods. . . Don’t remind me. I have a thirteen-year-old little brother, and sometimes it seems sarcasm is the ONLY thing that comes out of his mouth
That is totally a valid solution to the test. He was even using material found in the ruins rather than his own 10 foot pole.
Now he just needs to defeat the bottomless pit by walking around it and get past the invincible gate guardian by asking politely.
I’m not 100% that he even knows how to ask nicely.
thats why he isnt alone.
I’m not shure she know how to either
Remember back at the Naga temple? He sure can seem innocent when the situation calls for it!
Hey by disabling the trap you still passed the test

If you mean the chair that Laz was sitting on when he was blogging, we haven’t seen it since, have we?
*GRAMMARNAZI’D!*
…did I totally not notice the chair Laz was just standing on until now?
Wisdom of 1 right here… -_-
Always the best way to deal with a problem: poke it with a stick, in the right place.
This world wouldn’t happen to run on narrative mechanics, would it?
Also, there IS and outside chance she’s right. Some times there’s an advantage to taking the long, harder way.
See the Thessaliad for an example.
yes but in life surving is the name of the game and for humans or any sentient being that usaly means being smart and clever.
and thinking out side of the box

He didn’t ask, he just did. They liked it so much that they kept it.
But yes, he WAS sick with dysentery.
Where did he get that chair?
the God of Obstacles won’t be pleased with thiiis.

You still have five weeks I only have six days left in my semester and I’m home free
Definitely a rogue then. Hmmm… rogues seem to be short as a rule, interesting.
I love Indiana Jones type solutions to dangers.
“Go take the stick out and die if you want to.” and so on
And once again, we see why everybody wants to kill Laz.

where the heck did he find a chair?
that is all.
Sorry, but the awesome story drowns out the added effort you put into the drawings.
not realy the improved art combind with an alredy awesome story makes the comic well…awesome
As though it wasn’t before?
AAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
I have no stick.
O_O
And once again, the thirteen-year-old is the only sane man… er, demon kid. Whatever.
But the most important qestion: where did he get the chair?
