Since the start of comic 443 to 445 I seen most of the comments about reactions to Roy's death. My view of comic 445... ya nice song, lovely, brought tears to my eyes and was nice to see everyone else in the middle of the battle.
Away from the bard/Sword-Guybrush class, the Rouge, and the Cleric...to Belkar.
:vaarsuvius: Is it just me or did a lot of people expected for Belkar to go all "GOD! I can't believe I didn't kill him?" When Roy fell down onto the ground and died? it just seemed to me that a lot of the forum goers just expected him to be a jerk and ether stab him in the head and complain that he didn't get the XP that Roy had. I mean...reading the Comic's forum...I found not ONE person that put down that Belkar would be sad...not...ONE. The best I could see was a close up to Belkar crying then out with him yelling he didn't get to kill Roy. Which in fact makes me sad and probity would have made Elan sad as well.
Yes he is Chaotic Evil. While I don't play DnD let me look at this by my view point. Chaotic Evil...Chaotic...Chaos? Is he evil just to cause problems for everyone? But ya what ever...Wiki - "These characters will commit any act to further their own ends bla bla Most prefer to work alone bla bla delusional murderer who kills in a vain attempt..." ya I get it. But Belkar has been...non-Chaotic Evil for a few things.
I mean he liked a person of non-Lawful/Chaotic Good quality's (Lord Shojo). He gets along with Elan when he's not annoyed by having the needed XP to level up or when Elan makes a joke probity at the expense of Roy.
Okay ya...the whole little dragon class thing Oracle said he will cause the death of one of the fallowing. Miko Miyazaki, Miko's "stupid horse" (Windstriker), Vaarsuvius, Roy or the Oracle himself. So if all but one died your probly gonna say "gasp _____ is gonna be killed by Belkar...anyway here...just read my score card on these targets.
Miko Miyazaki - while not killed...she lost her class...right now if I remember she has a few skills in Monk and one other class.
Windstriker - While not dead....Miko can no longer summon it in her current class's. But..its gone...maybe for good.
V - Not dead, not close, and well alive.
Roy - um....ya the ring of jumping 20+ thing...it did cause the death of him getting to the litch guy. Doseint cause of death have a round limit? I think they went like 10+ rounds before Roy died...so it could have counted. I was more expecting a stright out kill but it fits the bill. [this part of the post has been edited since I though he asked who he would kill...not cause the death.]
Oracle - Alive...we guess.
Also lets be reminded that the Oracle was said to be tricky by Roy. In other words all Belkar could kill is someone named Oracle or an other person named Roy and so forth. Thus he did kill that name...but was the Oracle nice to him or as evil as Oracles can be?
Just short...Belkar can be Sepharoth Vordamort Evil for all I care and still be sad by Roy's death since they hanged around for a long time. "Ya sure I was gonna bump him off...but...sniff...I'm not complaining I didn't do it...I miss Roy..." miss for not able to make fun of him or for an other reason yes...but for not killing him...no. Proof in comic 445 is this. He stops on top of his pile of dead hobgoblins, faces Elan when he sings. Yes he killed that class hobgoblin, but did he look like this :furious:+ :amused:. No...he was this :frown:. Since when dose he ever kill with a frown. A kick to a already dead body yes...but never a sad frown.
I rest my case.
