    That's revealed in the very latest strip (#1184) last panel. And that one was published two hours ago, so I'd like to ask you to wait a bit more before you ask something about the latest strip the next time, to avoid accidental spoilers. OQ.

    Maybe the string owns a donkey? An an invisible donkey? A miniature invisible donkey?

    Does Roy ever specify in-comic that it's a Masters of Battle Administration? Or is that just in On the Origin of PCs?

    Edit: I suppose this could be considered a trivia question, but it might be an illegal one, as you might have to link to every strip in the online comic to show it is not explained except in the Prequel.

    Searching OOTS Wiki for the word Administration shows only three strips containing the word. None of them are about Roy's MBA. And #38 is the only one with the term "MBA" in it.

    Question - is MBA an actual term from the game, or did Rich invent it?

    MBA nearly always stands for master of business administration; the use in OOTS here is almost certainly to reinforce Roy's "I'm not a dumb fighter" by alluding to an educational degree.

    And not just a degree, but a graduate-level one at that.

    Yes, I know that. The question is, does the use of MBA meaning Master of Battle Administration come from a D&D sourcebook, or is it an invention of Rich Burlew. Or maybe even a sourcebook written by Rich Burlew.

    Pretty sure it's an in-comic invention of Rich's. I can't cite any sources on that, though.

    Well, its been about a day, so the hint (that I really didn't think y'all would need): The medical professional is a Nurse.

    But I don't see any evidence of implants.

    Grabbing the OQ.

    Find me a "clik!" sound effect.
    If we kill Nale, all he needs is for Hilgya or Zz'dtri or someone we don't even know about to drum up the cash for a True Resurrection spell and BAM! Nales's back in buisness and there's not a lot we could have done.
