#584: "How much for two?"
 

Attn: Field of Battle haters. Shaddup, 8BT is back ;P

Nicely put, Brian. Favorite parts in bold.


I like that the webcomic artists will stand up for their friends.

On topic:Is Rogue related to Akbar? :)

not nearly as convincing a con as theif, much more of an akbar/theif, possibly due to a lack of elfishness.

[query]rapport=defined as ?[/query]

[edit]upon googling, i've noted that rapports are happy warm trusting feelings that people have. implying that ranger and redmage are on the happy train, man hugs for everyone![/edit]

But he is definitely an elf.

Yep, he's an elf. You can tell by the ears.
Thief is going to be immeasurably pissed. An Elf travelling with a Dwarf that attacked a member of the royal family. Rogue is in deep shit.

And, no, the con wasn't as convincing as Thief's cons. I guess he's got a lower CHA score.

he can't be an elf, even with a pass from berserker he never would have made it through dwarf land with his organs inside his flesh sack being an elf.

I KNEW IT!

I knew Rogue would be Thief's lost twin brother! Or little brother at least. He's too much like a lesser thief to NOT be related, at least distantly.

I wonder what BM would want with 2 Rat Tails. . .

To be double powerful?

I say ... give one rat tail to White Mage and that way he gets her in the team! And in the sack!
Heheheheh....

*Ahem*

Those pixels that are Rouge's ears seem like elfen pixel ears to me. And those boots look damn elfen!

So much for the quest needed for class upgrade. Obviously they fail and remain as the ones we love and know.

I wonder what thief has to say about the rat tails. Oh wait, he'll be dead for quite some time I believe.

I'd say Rogue is AT LEAST Half-elf.

Oh, and he can absorb another mutant's powers just by touching them.

Ranger is a half-elf, you can't have too many half-elves.

Black Mage has a plan for 2, simple give one to fighter to give the Bahaumut, when Dragonkinggoddude realises he's been conned, he'd burn fighter to a crisp.

As for the 2nd rat tail,..... Red Mage. (Theif is still dead)

Rogue can say anything he wants and people will believe him.

He probably has 33 ranks in bluff, plus skull focus, epic skill focus, synergy from 33 ranks in diplomacy, and his bonuses for being a half elf.

Rogue can't be an elf, he has facial hair, and facial hair is SO not elven.

Which brings me to this: Hey Brian, Rouge's missing his mustache on panel 6 (when you see him from the side). At first I thought he was Ranger for a second...

You guys need to lay off DnD for a while. I didn't think the punchline was funny, even though BM was trying to con his way out of Fighter's life (through death... Fighter's) I see that.

The rapport skit was funny and I died when Fighter was talking about Transformers! *sniff* he's my hero! Glad to see 8 bit back. Field of Battle had its moments, just didn't feel right. Think it was the Double Dragon Sprites.

The ears on Rogue aren't a dead giveaway. I mean that scarft headpiece might be showing off his ears funny. Plus he doesn't have bronzed skin.

Admittedly, giving all elves the same skin as the Thief sprite was my idea, but since aside from Drizz'l (who's a Dark Elf, after all), I believe all the elves we've seen have shared Thief's coloring. (And Ranger is only 1/2 elf, so no fair counting him. Even if he is dual classed.)

SWK

and no one has yet provided evidence to the contrary that he is alive at the momment, which would be impossible were he to travel through dwarfland while being elven.

Waitasecond! Maybe Rogue is only a Theif clone because he touched him when he was picking him up!

Actually half elves can have facial hair. In many stories half elves have grown beards so that they may blend in with humans. The most famous bearded half elf would be Tanis Half-elven from the Dragonlance series. YAY FOR NERDOM!

One question, if rogue IS in fact, a half elf, with facial hair.... Why is it a FRENCH mustache? Oh btw, thanks for returning 8 bit. :)

I don't think the elves-can't-have-facial-hair thing applies to 8-Bit Theater. Thief's Dad has a mustache.

For the sake of argument, it could be fake.

Yes, but that's an obvious expensive hair transplant. So the King is an exception to the rule.

SWK

I just can't wait to see what happens next!..Cleric and the healing shiv! Rogue and his price of two imitation rat tails! Fighter does something! Maybe Whitemage will show up!

When Fighter only gets one line, he sure gets a good line.

What if...Thief's dad wasn't really an elf!?!??!...What if thief were a half elf? What if BM was really a girl!?? What if Fighter was secretly a genius in disguise?!?! What if white mage was really the devil!?!? What if BB was in kahootz with teh fire chick and wasn't really dead!?!? What would happen if RM actually got every good item in the world?!!?!?! What if Drizz'l lied about his royalty? What if Bikke's favorite color wasn't really blue?!?!? What if, what if, what IIFFFFF

*SMACK* Get a hold of yourself.


Well, we finally get to meet Rogue. But where are Berserker and Cleric? Off talking about the finer points of healing shivs?

"finer points of healing shivs". I believe that sir, is a pun. And thus you must be destroyed

You're a sharp one, you are!

Sharper than me apparently. I didn't notice it.

Well, most of everything I wanted to say, you guys have already said it.
But there is one thing: What's Raven gonna get out of the bargain?

"I'll do anything to get out of here"

Pretty much anything he wants out of thief. Which is scary, Theif being Thief.
