THE OotS Thread, Part V
It was suggested a new thread begin, since Durkula is back to being Durkon, and getting a one-on-one with THOR.

Nitram, slightly high on cough syrup: Do you know you're beautiful?
Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
Well if his body has turned to dust it will be a bit hard to raise him.

He was undead and then destroyed, so raise dead was already off the table. Dust or no dust, he needs resurrection.

Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
Does having the dust make it easier? Durkon mentioned they'd need some of it in a previous strip.

Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
If they have no remains at all, the only thing that can work is either true resurrection (a 9th level spell requiring a diamond worth 25,000 gold) or wish to recreate the body followed by resurrection (which is even worse in the costs department thanks to the massive XP cost on wish). So in short, yes.Crazedwraith wrote: ↑2018-08-17 04:31pmDoes having the dust make it easier? Durkon mentioned they'd need some of it in a previous strip.

Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
So it is either the same effort needed to raise Roy or a few steps more complicated. On a plus side they are surrounded by clerics right now.

Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
Unfortunately, the odds that there is a cleric powerful enough to cast Resurrection or True Resurrection nearby are a long shot.
So, to quote Elan, it's probably a sure thing.

I've been asked why I still follow a few of the people I know on Facebook with 'interesting political habits and view points'.
It's so when they comment on or approve of something, I know what pages to block/what not to vote for.

Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
Durkon could cast resurrection and Hilgya is probably a similar level by the rival clause (like crystal and Haley)
I'm expecting actually convincing her to do it is going to take some convincing.

I imagine the fact he's probably gone to Valhalla where he wants to end up will probably be important in the argument, drag him back so he can suffer a less noble death further down the line.Crazedwraith wrote: ↑2018-08-18 04:09am Durkon could cast resurrection and Hilgya is probably a similar level by the rival clause (like crystal and Haley)

Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
Thor might also pull some strings to ensure Durkon gets to where he needs to go. Literal Deus Vult in action.

Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
Even if he's in his perfect afterlife it's rather obvious that Dukon's sense of duty will have him answer the call to return to finish the quest. I'm assuming right now that Thor has some info on the snarl or special instructions for Durkon before he does go back. Or he's hoping to get more info on Hel's scheme.Bedlam wrote: ↑2018-08-18 05:12amI imagine the fact he's probably gone to Valhalla where he wants to end up will probably be important in the argument, drag him back so he can suffer a less noble death further down the line.Crazedwraith wrote: ↑2018-08-18 04:09am Durkon could cast resurrection and Hilgya is probably a similar level by the rival clause (like crystal and Haley)

Remember, Durkon isn't responsible for the actions of the Vampire borrowing his body.

Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
Also Thor doesn't seem overly concerned that he slept with a priest of Loki.

Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
How long has it been since that strip was published? Not really 5 and a half years surely? (etA: holy shit it was. March 2013 So nearly.)
Anyway, Thor is surprisingly good people.
Wait, is Minrah heading straight to Valhalla? I'd like her to stick around, she's fun.

1137 is up, and Thor is just dropping info on Durkon all over the place.

Reminds me of that episode where Arnold Rimmer becomes Ace Rimmer.
Re: THE OotS Thread, Part V
That is a whole lot of universes.
If the second lasted 4 years and the next was much stronger how old is this universe? My immediate idea was that it might actually only be a few decades old but the gods create everything including memories making the mortals think the universe is much older but I guess there's no evidence of that.

Whoa.......
Uh, wow. That's a heck of a way to make one think on your existence. No wonder so many of the Gods at the Godsmoot were in favor of redoing the universe again. To them, it's just so old hat that it doesn't matter if they do it again.
So, what does it mean for the heroes when the gods can't learn from their mistakes?
