James Gillen Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Re: Order of the Stick it's probably be fair to give EGG "Promoter" credits as well as co creator. Arneson is better at mechanics' date=' IMO, but Gary really made himself the face of D&D, such as it was.[/quote'] Sorta like how Stan Lee is "co-creator" of the first Marvel Comics characters.

Inu Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Re: Order of the Stick Of course, now Belkar has simply killed someone in order to steal his stuff. He's now crosed a line... previously, we knew he was a psycho, but he never particularly did anything on-panel (and not while he was a member of the Order) to something that wasn't basically begging for it anyway. Now he's crossed the line... not sure I can laugh at him any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Re: Order of the Stick You've got a good point Inu. I wonder if this isn't partially to show how Roy kept Belkar restrained relatively, where as Miss Starshine, while a fine leader, may not be able to.

Hermit Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Re: Order of the Stick Well, according to the Oracle Belkar doesn't have much longer to live anyway. This could be the start of that as he has to be put down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sociotard Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Re: Order of the Stick I've had it happen in game sessions. Somebody's character crosses the line, and the rest of the party has to do the only responsible thing. It never goes well for the out-of-game experience.

Lawnmower Boy Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Re: Order of the Stick Oh, come on. Belkar killed a Chaotic Evil NPC, and now he's balanced that. Clearly, he's Chaotic Neutral. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal_sage Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Re: Order of the Stick omg! that was hilarious! we had a Belkar moment in out Scion:Hero game a few months back. our Aztec Scion (can't remember the god's name) had a mission to protect this mexican woman from the predations of this other Aztec Scion. (the two gods were big rivals in mythos). so she goes into the hotel lobby, sees a mexican guy, figures its him (its not, its the womans husband, who she is also supposed to protect) pulls out her pistols and shoots him dead, in broad daylight, i might add. her god was pissed, the woman she was supposed to protect was obviously tremendously upset (and was later comforted by the Scion he was to protect her from) and the police we after the character. we limped along with that campaign for a few more weeks before the Scion of Loki, Scion of Apollo, and Scion, and the Scion Hachiman just bashed her over the head and turned her in to the cops. that was okay, though, cause her god had stripped her of much of her powers. that session has gone down in our rp history as the "day Desta killed a Mexican"...to her defense, however, it was only her third session, before that she had played nothing but MMOs, so killing WAS the only solution to most of her problems. she's gotten much better since, and hasn't killed a single person in our current DnD game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eternal_sage Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Re: Order of the Stick nah, we're level 10 (started level 1) and have only had...maybe 3 or 4 combats. an intrigue game. pretty cool stuff actually, and in those combats she hasn't even joined battle, but instead used the distractions to do other, more roguey things....
