Trying something out, bear with me… Update 0# With updates being so sparse, I thought I’d try something out mildly inspired by a recent xkcd comic. So I’m going to post the pages on time, however they may be in production at the time, and then update them on the site as I wade through the drawing [...]

It is in fact hammer time. My my, another month and I’m just one more page though the finale. Rest assured, I’m still finding time to work on things around here, though I do seem to have a habit of coming up with more intricate pages when I’m shortest on time to make them. There’s very [...]

Almost three weeks without an update? Really? Geez, now I feel terrible… It used to be I updated, if anything, prolifically, but not so this past academic year. I’m sure there’s a thousand different contributing factors to explain that dramatic downturn in productivity, from workload, to group projects, to heavily damaged sleep patterns, but truthfully I [...]

A battle millennia in the works. Vilkarlig is also known as “Vilkarlig the Ancient” because he’s one of the oldest demons still breathing. As a consequence, he’s been fighting off devils since before they were scaly and red, and is very familiar with them, especially so after his capture. “Hellsmaid” is a demonic term of derision, [...]

Souls and Regeneration

Lying — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 00:00:04 +0000

Regeneration is a potent ability, but exactly where does it come from? Souls, due in large part to their attachment to sentient minds, are able to take numerous forms. Generally, these forms don’t extend very far into particular talents, for example whilst a soul might be within a genetically-talented spellcaster like a sorcerer that soul likely [...]

Ride ‘em It’s becoming more and more apparent that I have an odd tendency to pair females together when doing combat. I don’t know why this is, but it’s the case with Mana & Rain versus Saleme, the finale of Azul versus Lizzy (when Tala arrives), and now Kilzu versus Sildyu/Shades/Vilkarlig. I honestly don’t have an [...]

It has been two weeks, but now on Christmas day, at last this page arrives. For what my art is routinely criticised as being, this page is easily one of the more complex ones that I’ve done in recent memory. I put a lot of careful thought into the arrangement, the framing, and the lack of [...]

It only works when the foe is strong by virtue of union. For most foes, divide and conquer works rather nicely. Even against Kerrigan, whose strength is the sum of many vulnerable individuals, divide and conquer is a perfectly legitimate and effective strategy. Against the shades and Vilkarlig however, its a rather moot point, because they [...]

This is actually one of Lying’s nastier spells. Kinetic Disjunction has its origins in the earliest days of magic, before things were fully understood and long before they were fully worked out in practice. Those that experimented with telekinetic magic early on found themselves breaking objects into many pieces, often traveling in different directions as a [...]

This probably isn’t a good arc for him. People who’ve been waiting for Igon to get his butt kicked, I have a wonderful arc for you. Historically-speaking, Arcanians have never retreated. Battles have gone badly, yes, and aid has been refused out of hand, yes, but they’ve never entered a conflict they didn’t know for certain that [...]
