From Dragon Magazine #54
Forgotten Strip #2 sees our party enjoying their newly found riches. Auric finally gets some decent armor. Although, changing from a mesh half-shirt to a uni-tard with a frightened woman's face on it is a debatable upgrade. Khellek gets a discount Doctor Strange costume complete with a disco collar cape and Lady GaGa gloves and matching belt. And Tiarra...gets a cape. Seems like someone got short changed here. Anyways...
Before they have a chance to put on a really quality fashion show, a low rumbling shakes the room. Seconds later a massive Purple Worm bursts through the ground and looks destined to consume Auric, uni-tard and all. Fear not true believers for Khellek's magic can stop the beast!
Or can it?
Unfortunately, I couldn't find any further comic strip adventures for these three heroes so we are left to wonder their fate forever.

Oh my god! I laughed and laughed and LAUGHED out loud reading this strip!
ReplyDeleteThe reason there are no further comics is Khellek told the truth: only his magic had a chance to stop the beast. But the DM got initiative and rolled a 20, automatically swallowing the bold wizard silly enough to step forward. The end result was a TPK one-two rounds later.
HAHAHAHAHA!
I LOVE the purple worm! A fitting en to our intrepid adventurers.
: )
and his outfit doesn't do anything to make him NOT look like a big piece of candy either
ReplyDelete@ Brian: Now you've got me laughing out loud again!
ReplyDelete: D
if I've made even one person smile, I've done my job :)
