Maybe Voltair has points in the Thief class? You know how many potions underlings have.

I love Sir Voltar SO MUCH. His expression in panel three? Awesome. And that hat!

Post by: LoCk on January 23, 2010, 12:59:42 AM: Bryce still has an awesome aura about him.

Post by: Tvorsk on January 23, 2010, 02:22:57 AM: Indeed, lots of great expressions in this one. Seems that Lucian has a plan... well, at least a part of one. I wonder what he'll need the others for... well whatever it is it will surely be better than ramming the warship. And thus, new question springs to mind: will it be better in opinion of our heroes, or better in opinion of the Drama Gods? Because these two are usually laying in opposite directions... {;)

And, blast it, a larger version of Voltar's face would make one awesome avvie somewhere... too bad that'd be character hijacking. {:P

But yeah, agree with KaiAdin, at least for the moment Bryce seems to have decided that Lucien is useful.

Post by: Lopez on January 23, 2010, 06:55:27 PM: But how will Lucian feel about attacking his father? There's got to be a little conflict going on inside his mind right now. Firstly, he doesn't LIKE his father, but that doesn't mean that he WANTS to attack him. I mean, attacking his father will bring JUSTICE, but then again attacking him will be SUICIDE. He's sort of confident, but let's not forget, again, that he and Sir Bryce got in a fight in comic 46...http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=46 (http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=46). Ouch. So he's not exactly Sir Bryce's friend. How will he feel about being used in a suicide mission by him?

But then again, he HAS to rescue the queen, right?

But then again, what about the other two? What's going to happen to them?

I have a feeling he'll focus on keeping the two of them safe first, then going after the queen, while trying to keep Bryce fighting his father so he doesn't have to. ]:O Who knows?

Haha I doubt it was Intentional, though seeing as he's the comic relief he *might* have an idea that hes in a comic... but probably not.

I don't think the mission would be suicidal, it might certainly strain the family relationship... but Lucian already made it somewhat clear at the beginning in Comic 20 (http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=20) that he would have no part in this.

Showing up to rescue the Queen however that would be interesting! Not just the familial tension... but perhaps in that it rests on Lucians Shoulders to prevent all out war between the two races of Reyn, possibly to mediate between his father and Sir Bryce and such.

Actually I suppose Lucian thought of that initially, and thats why now hes working with Sir Bryce and such, in order to be able to diffuse the situation before it gets out of hand. (Though since its is a comic... things will utterly fail)

If anything.. the best thing for Lucian to do.. is to First Get to his father (to get the whole story) then rescue the Queen . And Obviously Sierra and Voltar the plot devices to prevent lucian from completing this goal.

Why so serious?

I agree with both of you. What I like so much about Bryce is that he has such knightly virtues. In that tradition, a knight's love is chaste (i.e. for his queen) but it is very intense and motivates him to rescue her from dragons, etc.

I also like the way Bryce is obviously very intelligent, and functions as a kind of state advisor as well as bodyguard. It's a nice twist on the stereotypical knight, and I like intellectual characters who are noble and can kick butt.

Post by: LilFluff on January 31, 2010, 05:09:56 PM: Hmm. Can't say if Bryce has any inappropriate feelings for the Queen. But on a totally less serious note, I love his glasses. I'd love to get a pair of rectangular lens glasses. Pince-nez style too, although with my nose being a bit crooked I'm not sure how well that would work.

I think they would work, they just Pinch the bridge if your nose, a bit higher from there normal glasses sit (or even in the same place) mind you they might get sore after a while even if you don't have prescription lenses in them.
/me has been trying to find any optical dispenser has *has* pince-nez in their ranges

(alas they only seem to be a novelty item thesedays)
