Nolan is MUCH less interested in your feelings than he is in saving time...
Nerd By Northwest #361 - "Efficiency Expert"
(Click on the image to see the full-size version)
This latest installment borrows directly from our gaming group's last playthrough of "The Glacial Rift of the Frost Giant Jarl". The exchange went something like this:
Me: "How long for my cantrips to melt the ice to get at the loot?
DM: "Eh... say, about an hour for each corpse."
Me: "How long if we break off the hands or limbs with the loot and just thaw those?"
DM: (after a rather long pause) "Uh... ten minutes?"
Me: "Oh yeah, we're totally doing that."
It's little things like that which is probably why our Dungeon Master has named our gaming sessions with titles starting with "Murderfriends" (i.e. "Murderfriends Against the Giants", "Murderfriends Out of the Abyss", "Murderfriends vs. Tomb of Annihilation...). 😏
On a more somber note... due to the recent loss of a family member back in the US, myself and the family will very soon be traveling back to the Washington state for six weeks. So while I will bring my drawing tablet along, spare time will be sporadic so please bear with me if it takes a little longer to produce and release the next couple strips. Thank you for your patience and your readership!
