Episode 625: Leaving the cage.

[rogonandi]

I got another page of the comic done, and it looks like this monster really is what its hyped up to be considering how he's beating the snot out of Percy. What's basically happened was that the resurrection was incomplete. Candesco himself wasn't willing to return to life, so I guess the Demon had to stick someone's soul in that Nemurik skin.

I wonder if last time involved imploding the castle or something.

[Tiltowait]

Wait, what? The last time a demon lord was loose in the castle?

Mr. Stratus had better not block a bridge and sacrifice himself to stop the demon.

So Maxo didn't even perform the resurrection, he still had the diamond, he heard a black and red fonted voice behind him, Candesco appeared, and didn't think anything was awry? Jeez now I want to see his epic-level (literally) screwup lead to his own death. Leave him on the bridge to face the demon. It's the Japanese way of saying "I'm sorry."

At least the main party screwed up by saying "I wish" when they squandered their (limited) wish. Demon wishes are nothing to screw around with.

Oh, and by the way, can you take a moment and reorganize the forum member ranks to something more reasonable? I've been posting for almost a year and I'm still a "new member".

He actually didn't hear the voice. That was mostly for our benefit as the readers.

I also fixed the forum thing to something more reasonable and D&D related.

In the 8th panel whined should be whine so that all verbs joined by 'and' agree in tense.   And should Mess be capitalized?

And I'm medium now? What am I, a Wendy's Frosty?

I fixed the text issues, and yes you are a Wendy's Frosty.

That was an incredibly brutal beatdown. A planetar is one tough angel from what I'm able to find, and Morty beat the crap out of her in what looks to be two rounds or less.

Lessons learned: Don't acquire a fiend-wish owed if possible. If you do acquire one, figure out some relatively harmless way to use it up so that it can't be used against you later on.

At least they managed to run away; possibly losing the castle entirely (at least temporarily) is still probably a notable loss. Better than them all being dead and nobody left to resurrect them, though.

Mortaridar has eight attacks per round and about six of them have excellent chance of connecting. Four come from his trident, 2 come from his giant claws, one comes from his clawed humanoid hand and one comes from a biting attack. The Multiattack feat makes things a bit worse by making his natural attacks easier to hit with, and his weapon is Unholy so it does extra damage to angels like Percy. The Angel is probably doomed.

A fiend wish is the worst kind of wish possible. Not only are they usually going to pervert it like a the worst kind of Genie but the wish itself is also a contract, which means they're free to meddle in the affairs of Manjulias with it.
