Re: Next-strip predictions
FWIW, in 1247, I don't think we'll get a flash back to TE just yet.
Given the events of 1246, my guess is that V, Haley, and Belkar end up off screen, and we see on screen Minrah, Durkon(Statue?), Roy(still out?), Elan, and Sunny. (And maybe Franklin slowly crawling across the floor toward a wall). We also see Bloodfeast Extreminator because we last saw Bloodfeast holding onto Mr Scruffy's tail (Bloodfeast is now outside of the bag) and Sunny just turned his AMF eye back into the main, central area of the room.
A two quataloo bet on the Return of Bloodfeast option. (Here's hoping!)Last edited by KorvinStarmast; 2021-10-14 at 12:19 PM.

After jumping through the hole, Serini lands on a flumph!

Given where Sunny's central eye is now facing, I think that he just did.Avatar by linklele. How Teleport Worksa. Malifice (paraphrased):

Re: Next-strip predictions
I'm gonna throw in a prediction that Elan heals Sunny (or offers to but can't because the AMF) next strip.

Re: Next-strip predictions
My prediction accuracy remains at 100%! Maybe one day I'll get one right.
It is fairly obvious that Serini is leading them into a trap or ambush, which we will see in 1247. The question is, when will Durkon be freed, and why does he keep getting stoned?

Re: Next-strip predictions
You have indeed been mishearing it for years
Spoiler: Rainy Day Woman ...Well, they'll stone you when you're trying to be so good
They'll stone you just like they said they would
They'll stone you when you're trying to go home
And they'll stone you when you're there all alone
But I would not feel so all alone
Everybody must get stoned
@brian333: yep, I keep trying to turn blond on blond but all I get to is silver on gray.Last edited by KorvinStarmast; 2021-10-21 at 09:23 AM.

'Except for #8, right?'
When plan A failed she became less reluctant to use lethal force.
I don't think killing is her goal, but it may be necessary if she is going to win this one.

Re: Next-strip predictions
okay let's see
serini, haley, vaarsuvius and belkar have gone down the hole, V has been hit by one of sunny's beams and we don't know the aftermath, it's been theorised that this could've been the sleep beam which doesn't have any effect on V but seeing as how that's the literary equivalent of nothing happening I rather doubt that (would any DM worth it salt even call that out in game except as a way to short-term prank the party? the elf is hit by a beam from the beholder [collective gasp], it's the sleep beam!
considering the cliff-hanging nature I rather doubt we're going to see them in the coming strips unless interjected with the others
on this side of the hole we have sunny, elan and minrah as free-moving actors, we also have mimi the trapper and franklin the piercer who'm I'm going to count out for now as gimmicks that've done their job, and then there's durkon who turned to stone and roy whose been poisoned
the number 1 problem is durkon, flesh to stone's a really strong spell and AFAIK permanent unless dispelled with a stone to flesh spell or the freedom spell/ability? (I knew of the first from mechanics and the 2nd's been demonstrated before), now luckily elan knows the freedom-spell because he's used it on belkar to get him out of the epic illusion, my first thought that he'd trick sunny in using his anti-magic eye to dispell the effect, but I'm not sure this'll work
number 2 is roy, luckily as a bard elan's versatile in that he has limited spells per day but it doesn't matter which spells those are, neutralise poison has been hanging over the fireplace for a couple of years now, time for it to get shot, yes, elan healed V with it in this fight but I think that's a distraction
number 3 is minrah, she's the blank, the big unknown, the pebble turning into the avalanche because I have no idea what she's capable off (a bit exagerated, we know from her portrayal that she means well but if she were to throw a wrench in the gears I wouldn't be surprised but I'd also be happy if she didn't)
number 4 is elan and sunny, now sunny's been described as "an unexpected ally", he's also shown to be good-natured but easy-going and not rather smart, in a way he's elan like he was in the beginning, he's also shown a weakness to elan's bardic performance
so what'll think will happen: elan will talk to sunny, about who they are, about their adventures, about who he is, at some point he'll make a reference to him freeing belkar with the freedom spell, afterwards he'll remark on therkla and how that's inspired him to learn neutralise poison and so forth
eventually sunny will ask why he's telling all this and then minrah will remark "to distract you from the fact that you're surrounded" with roy and durkon looking good but really not happy
this was of course not elan's purpose and he spends the next few turns both talking down sunny as his allies

Re: Next-strip predictions
Trapper. The next strip (or maybe the one after that) will feature a trapper.
