This man is quite entertaining. I want him to get a million dollars. He deserves it!

I've always been curious how Elan actually sings his little songs.

I always hear it as similar to the Huntsman theme from Freakazoid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbt47BiQ_Ng

Yeah but Elan always repeats his little word four times instead of three, which really throws off any rhythm I had in my head.

Could a Scotsman check if in their accent "weendy" and "whindy" sound anywhere close? Also, to riff on the strip title, has anyone here read The Name of the Wind? I've heard good things about it, though I can't remember where.

It's great and I'm highly anticipating the 3rd one. The second book isn't as good as the first, but it's till good, and goons will be goons and overstate it.

False, the "Gooniest piece of poo poo fantasy story" title is held by the Sword of Truth series for turning into unintelligible Lolbertarian claptrap halfway through an 8-book series, with second place being "The Painted Man", a worldsetting with an awesome gimmick, where the main female protagonist gets raped halfway through the novel and falls in love with the man who beats up her rapists, a TOTALLY AWESOME BALD DUDE COVERED IN TATTOOES WHO CAN FIGHT DEMONS BY PUNCHING THEIR FUKKIN FACES IN HELL YEAH The second book was just... bland, in the Kingkiller Chronicle. Book 1 ruled, though.

So I just spent 176 dollars on the whole story (excepting Start of Darkness and On the origins). Did I do it right? 139$ +37 for international shipping.

Silly rules question: who received the XP for defeating Zz'dtri? Yuk-yuk, V, both, fifty-fifty, neither?

I wish his name was really Kakkarot-El. Or the author's name in anagram form.

Nah, I glossed over that part. Also I think he showed up after all that was said and done, didn't he? He saved them from dying of lack of supplies/rune-incompetence or something right? Honestly I do find the idea of a man who turns himself into a monsterslaying machine through body modification to be pretty cool though

Literally kills the rape-bandits to death, then says dramatic, grimm things while the female instantly falls in love with him and the secondary main character feels impotent. Then Kakkarot-El murders all the bad things and kicks everythings rear end and avenges his mother and is so fukkin awesome. He could even kill Wolverine. Dude was basically what Belkar wanted to be at the start of OotS.(Bringin' it back around.)

They may have to recruit him if he somehow survives the next big encounter, since if it leaves Belkar dead (and all signs point to Belkar dying some time 'soon') the Order's going to need to bulk their numbers and there just aren't many high level adventurers around. Nale keeps finding them of course because he's an antagonist, who can always find the fresh manpower he needs to challenge the heroes if given enough offscreen time.

They didn't when Roy croaked. The question being of course, would they resurrect him?
