    882 is not what I had in mind, but it qualifies. Third panel here was my intended answer. So yes, OQ time.

    How do Sticklers get past border security into important meetings, if they don't have a passport (or a magical token from a high priest)?

    I should clarify, because I'm not sure it's clear: "Sticklers" was meant as a silly nickname for "members of the Order of the Stick".

    Edit: Adding a minor clue, because I'm impatient and don't have much faith in myself to be clear... if you'd rather not see it, don't click the spoiler.

    It's not a good method, it's just the one Roy says they normally use.

    Last panel.

    Find me two fan gloves. Or three, if you can (I don't know if a third exists).

    Yeah I didn't get that at first, I googled the word and immediately started thinking of Gontor raging about the door not opening :D

    By the way, I was hoping someone here might know in which strip Blackwing first speaks (in Common) to a party member other than V. I'm just curious.

    Sorry, but I'm lost -- are fan gloves, gloves that have fans attached to them?

    And so much for hoping "Stickler" might stick, I guess. (^_~) Mostly for the sake of the direct wordplay, but it also raises the question of whether Elan's name indicates he's a French Stickler. *ba dum tchhhh*
    † - There might be a better case that he's actually an Azerbaijani Stickler, given that Google Translate first spat out an auto-detect of "announcement" from that language and there's considerable overlap between bards and heralds.

    If animal companions technically count as party members, Blackwing cheered on Bloodfeast in 784. But I think the first time BW talked to one of the non-V PC's was to Roy in 809. (The semi-conversation that follows is amusing.)

    I didn't actually know what they were called, I just guessed fan gloves, googled it and saw what I had hoped to see. So find me two different characters each sporting one of these.

    And thanks for the comic :D it's nice to see how Blackwing has gone from appears-only-when-someone-requires-familiar-services to pretty much a party member.

    Ahh, that name is certainly both more poetic and less ambiguous. And yep, question has been answered. Guess I confused y'all with that name :D

    Guessing this was meant to be an elliptically-open question, since it's been a while? If not, please disregard:

    In the desert arc, Haley nominally converted to the worship of Thor. But according to the title of one strip, what pseudo-clerical spell did she cast all the way back when Elan had to be rescued from bandits?

    (Not necessary to answer, only for bonus quatloos: And how did the "incantation" she used to "cast" it suggest that she actually worships Loki?)

    Is there something deeper you're looking for here than "it's a blatant lie"?

    Thank you, that was it.

    (It occurred to me later that her being a rogue is circumstantial evidence, but the reason you gave was the one I had in mind... and somehow your wording reminded me of the beautiful juxtaposition in the last three panels of 774, so thank you again. (^_~))

    Long shot, completely understood if it needs to be more accurate to your wording... is it because they can mistake a sextant for a sex taint?
