Minor Blessings (Bethesda the Beholder)

Bad Gods™ | Monster Manual Comix: Beholder

This Bad Gods comic has a beholder with positive eye rays, including:

1. Makes you remember everytime you've been hugged.
2. Makes you smell like fresh rain.
3. Enables you to detect the nearest homemade pie.

A character suggests one that makes everything taste like tacos.

There has to be more D&D-related benefits, though. I'm thinking things that are very D&D, without providing any tangible game benefit.

1. Your paladin's steed always has "new horse smell."
2. Drawing your sword always makes a "SCHWING" sound. It whispers when you're trying to be quiet.
3. Your gauntlets wick away excess moisture.
4. Your iron rations always include fresh ice cream.
5. Your 10' pole is always polished. (Sounds dirty but isn't.)
6. Pixies show up at random and offer you Pixie Stix (R).
7. Your barbarian always remembers every critical hit.
8. You can detect beer in a 30' radius.
9. Giants always look ridiculously campy when trying to smash you.
10. Town guards become Canadian -- they are always unfailingly polite, even when they're arresting you or attacking you.

My apologies to Canadians who are offended by positive stereotypes.

What minor blessings have I missed?

That's a hilarious comic, DreadPirateMurphy. Thanks for sharing -- the umber hulk comic made me laugh until I cried.

For anybody else discovering this comic for the first time, be sure to read the author's comments on the left underneath each strip.
