Interesting - thus begins the discussion on how Implosion works within the universe of The Order of the Stick.

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
Interesting way of representing what I assumed was Durkon making multiple saves, since the effect can repeat every round till it runs out. RC once again shows he doesn't really consider any path but the one he is committed to an option, he is just in too deep. Also.

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
Seperate to my first thought above - that does not seem subtle, and while Redcloak might be able to deal with both of them on his own a lack of subtlety is likely not the best idea given the other threats around (a bugbear village, a monster in the darkness and lets not forget an Epic Lich - this could go from bad to worse quickly).

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
Well, that went as well as one might have hoped for. At least the offer is on the table, and can start to eat away at what little soul RC has left. All in all, a good opening gambit to the negotiations.

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
That's a level 5 spell*, so I guess Minrah is at least a level 9 Cleric, huh? And multiclassed with Fighter? So she's probably a bit higher level than we previously thought.
*Assuming it's Righteous Might, which seems likely.

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
By the rules though once you make your save you cannot be targeted by that casting of Implosion again -- but the rules of the game are secondary to the rules of drama (or tertiary to the rules of comedy too!)
So Minrah was flying around in windwalk form with Durkon's hammer just in case, he? Good work, Durkon -- always have a backup plan!

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
So is she using Durkon's (Thor's) hammer, but without the gloves?

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
I wonder if rich didn't mentally wander over to the PF version. That one has a damage rider on it. Or it's just the spell working a bit differently in universe because Rich either doesn't care or didn't remember because it's his comic and it works like how he says it does anyways. I look forward to 15 pages of argument on the matter.

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
So, like I said in the thread for the last page of the comic, I'm pretty sure Redcloak's plan has not been revealed. I'm of the opinion there are several red herrings going on in the story (for example, Odin's Prophecy about Durkon).

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
Im not sure what hit redcloak harder, thors might or durkons response! Either way, he needs a lot of healing right now.

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
Amazing! All of this happened over the course of a full round. Talking (monologuing?) is a free action.

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
Odd. Not how it should've played out according to the SRD. And how long does Implosion take to kill something? Durkon looked like he was writhing in pain for some time. Maybe an entire round?
I also wonder how much damage he took? He's not as busted up as Nale, post-Harm, but he looks pretty beat up.
Sure looked better as a story this way though. Yay Minrah!

Re: OOTS #1210 - The Discussion Thread
Odin's prophecy about Durkon has already become true.
Minrah changed form within a couple of castings of implosion, so I think the 30 second rule is not in effect.
