They're illusions, necromancer, a trick is what you dig out of a grave
Only if she charges you afterwards
I am a conjurer of cheap tricks. Robin Zander, I call upon you to play Mighty Wings
Also not pictured are the warlock and wizard.
Warlock is snickering away at the scene The Wizard simply says to him "What do you find funny sell-out?"
Also not pictured is the Paladin.
"I can cast spells! Someone tell me I'm not allowed to be here!"
What's their differences?
Warlock has to sell their soul to a diety. Paladins basically do the same thing but they're jocks for god. Whenever playing as a magic user, it usually comes down to where their powers come from.
Some worship, some sell their souls, some just learn through books, some are born with inate magical abilities, etc...
So, interesting thing in 5th edition, Paladin spells don't actually come from a deity, but from their faith in their oath. Clerics are the only ones whose power comes from a deity
True!
Where does it say a Warlock has to sell their soul? And it definitely doesn't have to be a deity. They can make a pact with a unicorn.
Sorry, pact*
Warlock just sounds so much cooler than wizard
I’m glad they had name tags I thought the dude with a skull mask was a bard.
Anyone else deeply uncomfortable from the artists name?
I am now
Not really. They make content
Who's the guy in the last panel meant to be? Neil Gaiman?
I think it's Harry Potter?
Frodo!?
I thought it was Harry Potter at first.
Somebody explain the 'children to gaslight' line?
Gandalf really had a thing for Hobbits, who look and act somewhat like children, though they're significantly older their their human counterparts.
How do they look and act even somewhat like children? That's a bad take
They're small, can't grow bears (usually). They're also generally somewhat playful and shy. They generally fear things they don't know, which can be seen by the fact they don't travel far beyond their homes. They are pretty care-free and not bothered by external event, and fairly joyful. They live relatively simple lives and generally seem to be easily amused.
They don't behave exactly like children, but they do have qualities we associate with children. That, plus their physical characteristics, I'd say childlike is a decent description, particularly if you're just trying to insult someone for hanging around them.
I interpreted this as Sans thinking the sorcerer is Dumbledore, who did indeed manipulated children for his own goals, but it turns out it's Gandalf, so it's a little bonus joke.
oooooh what are you going to do summon a zombie specter?!
Summons zombie 20 levels above yours.
Fuck......
