Author’s Notes: The death scene in LH is a lot different than in RtRPH, but this one is probably closer to canon if it was.

Author’s Notes: Nearing the end, probably one or two more releases.

Skin, Cloth, Ambrosia? Rhea’s going for a redesign! I’ll be looking forward to it!


#172

Possibly, but she is a brand on her design. I’ll put the items to good use though. (Ofcourse in this world, soulbound doesn’t exist entirely, so dyes would be tradeable in theory, but I won’t pull that big of a plot hole.)

The FINALE!! Lets see where our story ends:

Author’s Notes: Well, that’s my story. 300 pages, a ton of errors and improv along the way, and only in under two months. I appreciate everyone who stuck along the way (last comic I believe took well longer), and hope this will be with you for your Realm careers. I’ll probably do more after the holiday (perhaps a holiday themed one), but that’s into the future. If there isn’t any tied-off ends in this story, let me know, but I think I got them all.

Thank you everyone, and I’ll see you next time!

Aww, that last ending! You’re right about Rhea being quite iconic on her own, though that deadly vixen is sure… Clashy as you have described. Love the reactions to it!

For the next one, I’m just afraid about one thing; death seems pretty cheap now. You get reborn with unmaxed stats, but it wasn’t shown in the comic (since it ended).

Perhaps it should be taken note as a major conflict cause in the later stage, thus making the audience hope that she didn’t die, restoring the tension of death.

Also, glad to see Ballister becoming a better member of society. Was kinda hoping that Ballister would work as a Barrista, ayy.

(Also, dat jab at the yatchs tho)


#175

The concept of the restart after death is a bit mixed in my mind. Ofcourse, it should be an uphill battle after losing a 6/8, but these days people buckle down and get back on the horse in about a day or two of play (including having good friends like Gollo and Geronimo to feed you pots.) But perhaps thats at the perspective of a 5 year player. I want to frame death as just being out of commission for a while (as I’m sure everyone dies or kills themselves for fame, especially in this universe where there are no multiple character slots for the sake of consistency.)

I could of made a small montage, but it’d just be about six panels, each showing a moment in a dungeon, conveying they ran enough to max a stat. But, I get where your coming from.


#176

Rhea choosing another class after her death would have been an interesting plot twist.


#177

“She doesn’t need the Hax, and actively finds heroes cursed with it to help them out as well. Many are too far gone, but there might be hope.” (300)
How I feel when I’m the only realmer in my group of irl friends who doesn’t need the Hax…


#178

casual henez reference on pg 279

#180

I just saw that the second comic ended, so I read the first one as like a prequel of sorts, and I already miss them.
Please consider making more, this shitty MS Paint comic is better than I could have ever hoped for.


#181
There's a spy creepin' around here!

I’m sure I’ll do more in the near future. Though, I did have an idea about putting our heroes in short comics presenting some of the fan-made dungeons I’ve seen around. They all look great and all we got ingame is a boring puppet master reskin with bullshit enemies.

So yea, we’ll see.


#182

There’s a party at the Manor that is to die for!

So to anyone still following this thread, Happy Spooktober (hopefully). Just drew up a quick image to celebrate and tell DECA to hur- I mean, get it out in a timely manner. Aside from that, just a quick update of what I’ll be doing for the comics.

Currently, I am making pages for a winter holiday comic. I’ll do as many as I can since this will be one on a deadline, and release them day by day. Rhea won’t be the star of it, but I’m sure you’ll all get a kick out of it anyway.

For the next comic in the official canon, I’ll post a poll sometime soon with all the ideas I have. They mostly convey the same story but from different points of view or different paces.

Anyway, have a fun holiday season, and I’ll see you all soon.


#183

Rhea with that maid skin I see? I’ll be looking forward to the festive comics!

Also, I just realized how much your comic fills that void in my day. I’l be waiting patiently for your next one!


#184

I’m still following the thread…
