  1. Of Course Sarah has a case of Female Fantasy Armor

    1. Detective Shirtless

      Barbarians have unarmored defense, so in terms of rules it makes sense.

  2. Good for Beverly not being the barbarian
    You do you!

  3. Wait, “Sartingstone”… Starting Zone?

    1. Darn it why didn’t I notice that?

      1. Why have I not used that!?

  4. No INT based classes definitely tracks

  5. …yeah, it makes total sense that the swingers also like DnD.

  6. Huh, Sarah plays D&D ? Interesting. Did Noah get her into it, or vice versa, I wonder.
    and Noah is the DM ?

    1. Yeah, have to assume Noah’s the DM, given. Should be fun!

      1. Ooooh, now that you said it, it’s clearly him under the hood.

          And behind the mustache.

  7. Goblin Tara! Perfect!

  8. Omg, YES!!!! A DnD adventure??? Totally worth the wait.

  9. Wait, so did they ask them about swinging, or about playing D&D?

    1. probably both

    2. Yes, obviously.

  10. Now i know the author do play DND, because that the most DND interaction ever.

  11. Their names… THEIR NAMES! Ohh the joyful pain!

    Also.. a good point.. was that the question Alice and Colin asked? And not the swinger question.. does this mean the swinger question is still in the air? Hmmm… Interesting what if.

  12. Ooh, RPG arc! Fun!
    Also it’s funny that with all the stereotypes, Bev is the bard and Sarah is the barbarian. Although the barbarian would wear less clothing by default, so I can see why Sarah would gravitate toward it.

  13. I have a bad feeling about this.
    No
    I have the creeping fantods

  14. Oh My Odin! They ALSO JUST WANTED FRIENDS! They just thought they might be swingers. So they eventually aked if they were. She was ” Not judging them “for for thinking that was the possibility and being nice people about it if that was so. Since they now playing DnD it makes that conversation come across completely different.

    1. Alice was convinced that Bev & Tara were swingers…
      …but my headcanon is the question Colin & Alice asked them was: “Are you into role-playing?” I mean, they’ve already got the tabletop gaming going; it’s a short step to D&D et al.

  15. Oh boy. An Adventure!

  16. Sarah just chose whichever class wore the least clothes, didn’t she?

    Good for her.

  17. Cool, the invitation was not a deal breaker. Always nice to see new characters. I’ve never played D&D, so I had to look up what a tiefling and githyanki are.

    1. Witch of Many Jobs

      Tiefllings are a pretty common concept in fantasy but githyanki are admittedly a new concept to a lot of people, though they have gotten a lot more exposure recently due to BG3.

    2. Michael Steamweed

      The githyanki (and soon after, the githzerai) were first published in the Dragon magazine for Dungeons and Dragons, lo, around 1980 or so. Just as antagonists. Some fan/player material converted them to playable characters, but not officially. Only recently did anything official become available for them as player characters.

      1. The thing is, in most of the settings, the Gith are seen as more ‘higher-level encounters’ since they don’t typically hang around on the ‘prime material plane’ that most gameplay happens on, so the players would have to be plane-travelling…

  18. I love the costumes.

  19. Witch of Many Jobs

    I was wondering why the next page took this long. Turns out Nort was winding up to hit us with a DnD campaign. You mad lad…or lady.
    Also a gith and a goblin warlock? Now that is a unique party already.

  20. Goblin energy adventures.
    At first Bev being a bard threw me off, until I realized all the times she used her rizz on Tara.

    Also Sarah is definitely barbarian energy.

    1. Michael Steamweed

      As a professional gym trainer, she is very good at inspiring others to push themselves beyond their comfortable limits. Very bard!

  21. Sarah already thinking about murderhobohing before they even start the first quest.
    that’s so point.

  22. Tara is a goblin warlock, yeah that checks out.

  23. Also… Does that imply that Tarhas patron is a dog called Stephen? Or have a demondog familliar called Stephen? Hmmmm!!

  24. Michael Steamweed

    As a professional gym trainer, she is very good at inspiring others to push themselves beyond their comfortable limits. Very bard!

  25. first time I ever recognized ChatGPT being used. I only know this because I am also starting a D&D campaign and asked for help with the description of the city, and it gave me almost an identical description.
    No shade from me though, it is a helpful tool.

  26. It’s nice they’re still friends after that embarrassment!
