Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
I think this has been mentioned before, but putting people in positions of government merely because they fell from the sky is not exactly ideal.

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
I mean, it probably also helps that they can zap people who don't agree with them.
(Not that that's a basis for good government either, just in case anyone thinks I prefer electricity over elections.)

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
I'm actually pretty sure picking someone who didn't fall from great heights would be the better choice.
Does it still count as falling if they managed to stick the landing?"If it lives it can be killed.

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
Pellan?
He's a bit thin-skinned.
He has little weight problem .
His teeth are great, but his gums..."If it lives it can be killed.

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
I remember someone mentioning that those of first falling may seek to extend their brief lives. Maybe she's interested in Pellan's curse?

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
I mean, considering Stormfallen literally, well, fell from the sky, I'd presume they have a slightly higher chance of doing that.

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
Is it just me, or does it look like the people in this conversation are really going out of their way to not use pronouns for Pellan?

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
Yeah, I’m also lowkey suspecting Pellan’s a girl; the theory’s been around for a while I believe.

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
Actually, was Pellan ever explicitly referred to a male?
Preferably by the skeleton themself?
I mean, there's the "Isn't Pellan a girl's name?" "It's a warrior's name." exchange (Not that those are mutually exclusive), but even that is potentially misleading.
The objection might be well over being called a child (girl instead of woman) instead of the implication that P's female.
Or it is a matter on emphasis. Pellan is a warrior, academy trained and all, not some random traveler who is halfway descent with a blade."If it lives it can be killed.
If it is dead it can be eaten."

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
My first thought was actually that they're doing it because they're not entirely sure whether Pellan counts as a person.

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
*shrug* We've seen women warriors in this world. It seems to me like there's no point in saying "Isn't Pellan a woman's name?" if Pellan isn't a guy or at least appears to be one. Yeah, sure, skeleton, but in that case, wouldn't the priests have just assumed they were wrong and Pellan was a woman?
It wouldn't surprise me given how careful this story has been with Pellan's pronoun (I haven't been able to find a 'he', though thief-lady-whose-name-I-forget did once refer to pellan as 'hero', and in 149 Pellan is called 'it') but I doubt it.Hate me if you want. But that's your issue to fix, not mine.

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
Frankly, it probably doesn’t matter too much? Pellan’s gender isn’t even in the top 10 mysteries of this comic.

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
Oh, come on, she just has the sun in her eye. Don't you know how annoying thay gets? It's totally worth four panels to establish that wothout hinting at anything about her character at all.

Re: Cursed, of Course: A Fantasy Comic
Since her action does not effect a change in the level of ambient light, it is fairly clear that this is merely her true age showing: this is a playful, childish gesture of little import.
(Alternatively, she's about to blast someone with all the power of the sun or something, but how likely is that? Right?)
