He called "dibs" on the old man's sidequest thing. Which resulted in them going to the Castle of Ordeals. Which as it said in the comic, only got them horrible images that will never leave their minds.

Perhaps the level 10 spell Ultima? BM has alluded to its existence, and Lich had claimed to have power over 10 levels of magic.

Wait, I was just worried that RM would get tossed out of the Lite Warriors, however briefly. In retrospect, I might've jumped too hastily to this conclusion. But I suppose anything's possible...

Y'know, when it came to the game itself, the one spell that most people were very happy to get when their Thief changed classes, was FAST.

Can you imagine what Thief -- who is already skilled enough to steal pretty much anything -- could do with a FAST spell?

Of course, in the game FAST served only to double the number of attacks made by a single character (thus amplifying damage dramatically). It would still be great with Fighter for that trait, but I doubt Brian would restrain it to that purpose if he did choose to include it in the comic.

Of course he wouldn't, people can use more than one weapon at a time, & both RM & BM have used magic far beyond the levels they should be capable of. Which is why the class change seems insane to me. I mean it seems like they were already nearly as strong as they would be at the end of the game when the comic started.

You do realize that, at any given time, the characters in this comic are as strong or weak as they need to be for a joke to work.

Yeah but I love overanalyzing everything, it's drives my family almost as crazy as I am. Sprite comics are the only place I ever allow plotholes to go unnoticed, and that's still only some of the time

in DnD, the 0th spell level still counts and makes ten.

But this isn't really based off of DnD, unless if you believe RM. And even he doesn't only say DnD, he believes in many different RPG rules controlling this world at once. The Magic levels are based off of the original FF game. There were 8 levels of magic. And Brian tacked on the 9th level, which has the Hadoken, and the 10th level, which has Ultima and Ice 9.

As for whether or not BM gets Ultima? Quite possibly. I don't know what the restrictions would be though, considering that the Hadoken is already once a day. Unless if BM can cast the Hadoken more than once a day as a Black Wizard. That would be scary. And divorce rates really don't need to get any higher.

Ultima is for when hadoken runs out of power.
