Well, what happens when a soul escapes?

Can you still end a Soul Splice when this happens?

I wonder if they'll prorate V's payback time now that she's down to two souls.

Nah, just means that Nero or whoever provided Haerta will get as much time as it took for that soul to get free (or at least that's how I think it would work).

And we still don't know whether V is female or not (and people complain about dragonborn having boobs; if elves had them as well we would know by now!)

The three fiends deserve a comic of their own.

Silly V. You should have taken the "I'm a demon" conversational option.

All dwarves have beards, and are thus male.

All elves have long, flowing hair and are thus female.

Their rivalry is a thinly veiled metaphor for the gender dynamic between human males and females.

And, um, a little androgyny is sexy?

I know, but it's just easier to pick one or the other and stick with it rather than get into a bunch of linguistic gymnastics.

I could totally see that being part of a campaign setting, where dwarves and elves are the male and female of the same species. Kind of reminds me of something my fiancée once told me; when she was a kid she thought cats were girls and dogs were boys.

No way! I used to think that too. I thought it was just me.

And now V's payment begins. It's overdue.

Sorry, but I'n not a V fan. V's always been somewhat smug, pompous, and arrogant when not boring. Sometimes the tendancies were warrented, like not wanted to get railroaded by that psycho Miko. Those tendancies have been building even bigger since the fall of Azure City, and accelerated since Kubota's disintegration. And that is why My Three Fiends pounced.

Castle Falkenstein has that setup. It's a really cool idea.
