Order of the Stick Trivia XXIV: What do I need a twenty for, anyway?

[ZhonLord]

How 'bout Roy, then?

eh...... technically that qualifies, though I was looking for a more explicit statement. I'll figure out a rephrase and bring it back later.

[H_H_F_F]

In the meantime: show me a humanoid displaying (their own!) 6 teeth.

In their own mouth.

Presumably grown from their own gums.

And presumably still connected to them.

That should avoid more instances, right?

[Ron Miel]

Belkar

OQ

[enq]

Find me someone being described as being blindfolded.

[H_H_F_F]

Find me someone being described as being blindfolded.

Does "the whole blindfolded priest thing" count? last panel.

[b_jonas]

enq: The Oracle of the Sunken Valley, funnily, in #333 2nd, Vaarsuvius from memory.

[enq]

Does "the whole blindfolded priest thing" count? last panel.

You know, I almost included that the character shouldn't also be depicted as such, but I figured there wouldn't be any other answer than b_jonas's anyway. Yes, this would have to count.

[H_H_F_F]

Then I'll do another one:

We all know that Miko survived a killing injury, at least for long enough to have a conversation.

Show me another humanoid who's sustained that exact type of injury, and survived. Like Miko, it doesn't have to be long-term survival, necessarily.

[enq]

We all know that Miko survived a killing injury

I understand your question but I still need to grin at this contradiction.

Xykon got his lower body blown to bits by a Gate's destruction as well, and he was fine. Miko should have embraced her inner evil, she'd still be alive/undead today too.



Find me explicit statements of both terror and fury at the possible harm a villain could cause to a companion, with both statements in the same panel. The harm itself does not have to be explicit, only the emotions.

24 hour hint:

Spoiler

Show

It was asked before if Nale was the one making the statement. He wasn't, but he's directly involved in the scenario that generated those statements. Also, terror and fury have synonyms.

Note that this answer doesn't qualify: I asked for a humanoid, Xykon is undead.

[b_jonas]

Would you count Lord Shojo in #407 7th? He gets a dramatic one-liner before death. OQ if that's it.

[Metastachydium]

Note that this answer doesn't qualify: I asked for a humanoid, Xykon is undead.

Belkar

(Note that this answer doesn't qualify either, nor would no. 21. If one looks close enough, a tooth is clearly visible on either side of the two in the center of the lower jaw.)

[ZhonLord]

Note that this answer doesn't qualify: I asked for a humanoid, Xykon is undead.

Sorry. I counted human skeleton as humanoid undead, I tend to forget that doesn't line up with the actual monster manual descriptions of what a humanoid is.

[Metastachydium]

Note that this answer doesn't qualify: I asked for a humanoid, Xykon is undead.

Anyhow, it's the literal first panel of the (online) comic.

[b_jonas]

ZhonLord: sorry, I am answering #407 for H_H_F_F's question, not for your question. H_H_F_F said that your answer was wrong, so his question is still active.

[Metastachydium]

ZhonLord: sorry, I am answering #407 for H_H_F_F's question, not for your question. H_H_F_F said that your answer was wrong, so his question is still active.

Not anymore:

Anyhow, it's the literal first panel of the (online) comic.

[Ruck]

Does goblinoid count as humanoid?

[H_H_F_F]

Anyhow, it's the literal first panel of the (online) comic.

That's it!

Does goblinoid count as humanoid?

Yup, at least since third edition. Don't think type was really a thing in second edition, but I was too young and played it for too short a time to remember for sure.

[ZhonLord]

In that case, now that it's confirmed let's restart the timer on this one:

Find me explicit statements of both terror and fury at the possible harm a villain could cause to a companion, with both statements in the same panel. The harm itself does not have to be explicit, only the emotions.

24 hour hint added above.

[Tzardok]

Creature types were invented in 3.0, yes. 3.5 changed them a bit, 4e replaced them with descriptors and 5e returned to them and changed more in the attempt to get rid of subtypes.

[Peelee]

Yup, at least since third edition. Don't think type was really a thing in second edition, but I was too young and played it for too short a time to remember for sure.

Then is this it?

[H_H_F_F]

Then is this it?

Meta found my intended answer. This maybe qualifies too? The torso is still intact.

But yeah, back to Zhonlord's question.

[enq]

The synonym part of the hint make me think of fear and anger which makes me think of Star Wars but I don't think that's taking us anywhere.

[ZhonLord]

The synonym part of the hint make me think of fear and anger which makes me think of Star Wars but I don't think that's taking us anywhere.

Enq... I'm sorry to say you were on the right track in the first half, but lost it in the second.

And now time's up. The answer is, Elan was scared and angry about the harm Nale might do to his dear companion Banjo.

OQ, who's got one?

[Metastachydium]

Banjo

Ah. That would explain why it was so hopelessly lost on me.

[enq]

Enq... I'm sorry to say you were on the right track in the first half, but lost it in the second.

Oh yeah? Find me someone who was on the right track for the first and second part, but lost it on the third.

[Metastachydium]

Oh yeah? Find me someone who was on the right track for the first and second part, but lost it on the third.

Hrm. There's got to be an answer for that somewhere.

[enq]

Hrm. There's got to be an answer for that somewhere.

And here I just googled the word type of anywhere in preparation for the first hint. Had you been a few minutes faster, I could have saved that bandwidth. How can there ever be peace between us if these insults never end???

[ZhonLord]

Assuming Meta OQ, let's do a lighter one: show me a sentence that provides two different insults at the same time depending on how it is read.
