Here's a new comic at long last. Maxo meets several Clerics intent on bringing him over to their religion, the first being a Cleric of Tlodnal. Yes, there are apparently people who actually live on the plane. In frustration, Maxo hunts Candesco down and offers himself up to Nehhilia which Candesco accepts. It looks like he'll have to prepare Atonement tonight. Click this to go to the comic's archives: Click!Click this to vote for the webcomic: Click!

Will she take him just like that? Also, REALLY not a particularly good way to decide things, but whatever.
Also, hope that poor girl gets pointed to a proper lavatory soon.

Let's see then; that's an attempt by janusine, tlodnal, chhaww, namino, sarbek, and stellina. The last two I'm basing on the weapon they appear to be carrying and I think namino was the freedom angel (not stated on his web page).
Also, I wish I could recall where the comic title is referencing. I just did a reread about a week ago too.

Actually the last one's just a Bard who really needs the bathroom. She has absolutely no connection to Maxo nor has any desire to convert his religion.

Well, it's about time we saw Charbek and Chhaww in the comic! They've been knocking around on the Pantheon page forever but never made an appearance.
Also it's weird seeing a denizen of the Lands of Sadness trying to be charming. That smile just does not look natural!

well... that was unexpected.
Is there some sort of celestial interfaith bulletin board where they post news of clerics that lose their diety's favor?

Just because nobody included a link to the comic, I'm posting it here for everyone to see. Also, it has one of the best jokes in the history of the comic.

Nice comic, but I have to ask. Is there some 'converting old cleric clause' that makes it so radically different aligned clerics won't try to kill each other when around each at the time they are trying to recruit new clerics?
On a side note, Tlodnal is the child from Omelas as a god?

I half expected Candesco to turn out to be a Janninna follower under an illusion spell in the last panel.

Maxo thinks too hard about Tlodnal and exhibits psychotic behavior, probably has a tone of voice change, and utters something completely out of character.
So what is Maxo "not ready for", in the Denizen's eyes? Would Maxo "be ready for it", if he thought of Tlodnal and was completely in control?

On a side note, Tlodnal is the child from Omelas as a god? The evil clerics may save their murderous impulses until after Maxo is converted to another religion, but more likely they have wisdom enough to save their battle for somewhere other than a castle that's currently full of powerful spellcasters and possible castle defenses similar to those in Silverfronds. Maxo thinks too hard about Tlodnal and exhibits psychotic behavior, probably has a tone of voice change, and utters something completely out of character. So what is Maxo "not ready for", in the Denizen's eyes? Would Maxo "be ready for it", if he thought of Tlodnal and was completely in control? In a way. Maxo isn't ready to embrace the ways of Tlodnal because those who are somehow won't consider Tlodnal deserving of his eternal punishment. It's powerful magic beyond mortal ability that causes even creatures with a good alignment to defy their otherwise compassionate nature and any sort of reason to advocate and/or enact cruelty towards that god.
