OotS #435

[Nifft]

Belkar is confirmed chaotic. He even said so to the nice lawyer trying to serve him a restraining order.

Cheers, -- N

435 strips ... and not enough Belkar!!!

"The angel ... does not work here anymore"

MUAHAHAHAAHAHAH!

Belkars combat efficiency: Favored enemy hobgoblins +4, rage, good halfling strength and "Belkar Rulz Roy Suxx" DM bonus... and he's quite ok!

Note that, as they tumble over the parapet, the poisoned arrow goes flying off. I wonder who it'll hit? ('Cause you know that wasn't a throwaway...)

Best strip in a while, and that's saying something! ^_^

On effectiveness: Didn't they specifically say that these are only Level 1 Hobgoblins? Belkar is, what, level 14? I don't see a problem here.

Edit: And he probably has Favored Enemy: Goblinoids.

Edit 2: Aw, beat to it. >_>

Edit 3: Timmundo, he probably has at least two favored enemies...

 

[The Lost Muse]

I'd say odds are good that Belkar's primary favored enemy is human...

Actually, by the RAW, he'd be lagging the rest of the OotS (assuming 13th or so is the baseline, as established by V's spells a few weeks ago).

Belkar is apparently a Ranger X / Barbarian 1 (and has been since shortly after the end of the Dungeon of Dorukan), neither of which are a favored class for halflings. He's got an XP penalty going there.

he made up for some of that with backstory roleplay in one of the strips.
when everyone else levelled and he didn't

also he had a solo adventure. when he escaped the pit cell.

 

[Doctor DM]

Is there anyone cooler than Belkar in the universe?

I really hope he doesn't die...

 

[Asmor]

My money's on Haley getting hit by the poison arrow.

Wonder what kind of slaad, though---the weirdness-spouting exemplar of chaos slaad that Elan had, or maybe the incoherent sociopathy possible with a death slaad? Belkar seems the type to get Evil in his Chaotic (or, if you will, having a more Warhammer-esque sort of Chaos).

Which ever the case, I think its probably a very happy and contented slaad.

"Belkar Belch Belch Prissy Satin Satisfaction...Awwwww"
