Arid's a -smart- fighter! Good job, Arid!

I didn't think much would happen since my last visit (I missed last Monday because of vacation), but things have certainly gotten interesting.

Nessa (Jul 18th, 2010 at 6:37 pm)
So does this finally end the spear/mace debate? ;-) *runs*

Del (Jul 18th, 2010 at 9:00 pm)
Mace to the sternum, then a headfirst fall down the stairs? That dude's toast. Arid doesn't play around.

That's the way to do it.. hit them hard the 1st time so they don't come back.

GoddessxOfxChaos (Jul 18th, 2010 at 10:43 pm)
Haha, you gotta love Arid. And FINNALLY, the world will see that is si indeed a mace? Spears are longer, more flexible and usually do not have a thick or bulky tip to allow for swifter movement. (Sorry, I gre wup in a house full of kung fu weapon... -_-*)

Ooooouch... O.O

Teru (Jul 19th, 2010 at 5:43 am)
Ouch. I don't think that guy is getting up ever again.
And Leezard...that was worse. x_x,

Last panal sound effect: <DOOM>
Hmm, is that a mark on the back of Arid's neck?

Kodiackk (Jul 19th, 2010 at 2:26 pm)
That guy probably won't be able to breathe w/o severe pain. or he's never going to see his mommy again either. the other one is toast.
@lissy that IS a mark on the back of his neck! no idea what it means though. looks like a chinese symbol.
alan P. . . where are you . . .

Lissy ~ good eyes! It's a stick man. Because Elf men and women look so much alike, parents started to mark the gender of their child on the back of their neck to avoid confusion later.
Nessa and Miss Chaos ~ The debate is indeed over! There is no doubt now that it is indeed a blunted spear.
Leezard ~ I liked your pun.

Nightlyre (Jul 19th, 2010 at 5:35 pm)
@Lissy: Sharp eyes - well done!

MarkS (Jul 20th, 2010 at 12:34 am)
Arid, hitting someone with the side of a spear won't hurt them very much...
Interesting mark. Is it something all dark elves have, I wonder?

Teru (Jul 21st, 2010 at 11:02 am)
MarkS:
I think, even if its a short spear or a mace, getting hit with it and then falling head-first down stairs is going to either kill you, or give you brain-damage. Or something. *nodnod*

love this weeks dotW!!!!!! great shading around the scales.

Teru (Jul 22nd, 2010 at 10:56 am)
Ee, this weeks DotW looks AMAZING! You've done another spectacular job, Nightlyre~
Na, na, will it be available for download?

Teru (Jul 22nd, 2010 at 10:57 am)
Er, as a wallpaper...? ^///^;

Nightlyre (Jul 22nd, 2010 at 9:26 pm)
Glad you guys like it. I might be able to arrange for a wallpaper. We'll see! :)

Lenn (Jul 23rd, 2010 at 12:55 pm)
Something tells me Arid is going to be blamed for the robbery or something along those lines; the mark on the back of his neck may even be a criminal brand of some sort. This can either end really well or really badly...

MarkS (Jul 23rd, 2010 at 3:17 pm)
Of course it's going to end badly. We haven't had enough reasons to sympathize with Arid and Arid hasn't had enough time to angst how how everyone hates him. And every dark elf needs a little angst, doesn't matter the story.

theshadowdweller (Jul 24th, 2010 at 5:49 am)
Lenn ~ Seems like the back of the neck may be an odd place for a criminal brand...but i guess its possible. Gang tattoo of sorts maybe?
Mark S ~ He could just have a build up of angst...realize they are going to blame him anyway...so he just takes the money and makes a break for it.
