Who Is Ellen - 60 - HD

But why, though?

- At egscomics 

Commentary

That escalated quickly.

That said, it's a fantasy setting with magic in which gods and demons are confirmed as real. Some form of this being a possible motive is always on the table.

I guess it would also be on the table without those things, but let's not thing about how spooky scary the real world can be! Let us all escape to this magical land of fantasy within a magical land of fantasy, okay?

Okay.

Dun dun dUHHHH!

Hmm, "Luxurious Animals" Does it just mean pampered animals or does it allude to the quality of the animal?

B. P.

Because nobody else mentioned it yet: Dan, I really like the "spooky lighting from below" art effect on Ellen.

Brooks Moses

Indeed! Or possibly the mayor thought the adventurers were incompetent, and needed to be able to claim he was doing something to stop the theft now that word got out about it. Or possibly the mayor and the thief have different rituals in mind for the chicken. The thief might even be someone trying to prevent the ritual from happening!

Brooks Moses

It is, and yet, it seems like the mayor wasn't in on the plot. To be sure, he was still *part* of it, but his part was as one of the happless dupes. I mean, if the mayor *was* in on the plot, why would he hire adventurers? What, you say the chicken was actually sacrificed 35 minutes ago, and the quest was simply to draw some adventurers to their doom? Well, I guess that also would work.

Dan: that escalated quickly Somebody on the RPGnet forum's EGS thread: it's a one-shot, they have to

Lack of a chicken may be ... inauspicious.

Also, it goes along with Rich's excuse for being in the party.

Some Ed

I feel like this is Rich's first action as an actual player and *not* someone just trying to screw up Ellen's game. It's good to see. :)

I guess we'll see if our heroes are feeling clucky

KC

Huh. And that also adds a very interesting motive to why someone might be keeping a creature in that level of luxury, too.

Brooks Moses

Y'all got a fowl sense of humor

AstroChaos

The plot chickens.

Casey

To be honest. This is definitely something a Paladin would know.

Thisguy

The thought plickens.
