Sir Scraggly was not plane-shifted with his master, and we never saw Thog body (which means the chance of him being alive is 135% or higher).

I wonder where both of them are now, but I bet they are having fun killing sentient beings together.

Sir Scraggly is actually a werewolf and has since caused a lycanthropic breakout.

Hard to say if Thog is alive or not. TVTropes' Sorting Algorithm of Deadness (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SortingAlgorithmOfDeadness) gives me a score of 2.375, right between "Be Back Soon" and "Maybe Back Later".

TVTropes actually has a score (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/SortingAlgorithmOfDeadness/Webcomics) for Thog:

Thog (after the arena arc):
Cause of death: No One Could Survive That. 2
Genre: Death is cheap. 1
Body found: Not yet. 2
Reaction: Bond One-Liner. 4
Last Words: Oh, Crap. 4
Characterization: Recurring Character. 3
When did he die?: This arc. 1
"Died" and came back?: No. 4
17/8 = 2.125
Of course, the score actually adds up to 21, so 21/8 = 2.625. I guess tropers aren't the best at math. Did you take points off Reaction and Last Words? Shot in the dark.

They've actually updated the algorithm since then. The new one is as follows:

Cause of Death: No One Could Survive That. 2
Audience Expectation: Death Is Cheap / Back From The Dead. 1
Body Found: Never Found. 2
Reaction: Bond One-Liner. 4
Last Words: Oh Crap. 4
Characterization: Ensemble Darkhorse. 1 (He also counts as a Recurring Character, but I think Ensemble Darkhorse trumps that).
When did they die?: Same arc. 1
"Died" and come back?: Not yet. 4

19/8= 2.375

I was going for a Star Wars parody with the titles there. You know, A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, The Return of the Jedi, etc.

And I just noticed that the plural of elf is elves. Stupid english rules, even more arbitrary than d&d ones.

English has rules? I thought we just made it up as we went along.

Lorick

I thought that 'f' always went to 'ves' when going plural, like hooves and... actually, roof goes to roofs, which was going to be my other example... just follow Rogar's advice and make it up.

That's what I've been telling all my english teachers all this years!

Having a puppy after coming out of the Bleedingham General Hospital looks like a fair outcome for a character like Thog.

Are you sure you don't mean #7 and a half?

Only after Tolkien.

Nope, just sometimes. I say "rooves", but that's just me. The idea being that in Old English /f/ and /v/ were alophones

Wait, wait, wait. Thog's body wasn't "Never Found". As far as the Protagonists are concerned, Thog was "Left for Dead". To be "Never Found", Roy would have had to have at least tried to look for the body. Instead he just glanced at the rubble and split.
