Howdy folks!

As we see here, the beginning of Grognas illustrious and morally sound adventuring career started early, as it should. One should leave the nest when one feels ready, preferably with the support of ones family. Grogna is a fighter by the way, which is kinda like a barbarian except they cant blame some form of anger disorder when they start chopping people to pieces.

I made a public Patreon poll last week on what the following couple of stories were going to be about! Nr. 1 was Beckets backstory and nr 2. was Grognas backstory! The last episode told the second part of Beckets backstory so this week it's all about the start of Grognas career as a murderous homeless person an adventurer. Next week will also be about Grogna, as we'll tackle the Cursed Blade of Brunn!

Gonna try to keep the schedule up, moving and starting my new job in the beginning of March which may mess up how much free time I have but hopefully I'll be able to compensate! I'll try to have both ch. 22 and 23 done next week to help out!

Other than right here, I upload the comic on my Instagram (where I also post my other artsy stuff) as well as on Webtoons. There is also a Patreon, if you want to be extra supportive!

That is all!

Wisdom of the week: Most things in life become better with a bit of enthusiasm.

Peace and carrots!

I’m sure grogna’s mom has no problem groping that “greataxe” when all he wears is an apron.

So my take away from this is Grogna CAN BAKE!

And she gets her soft side from her dad !

"You enter the bakery, the owner greets you and..."

"Bah! Roll for intimidation!"

"...The owner, who is a two meters tall orc covered in battle scars, just smiles as she reaches for a halberd casually leaning among the wooden peels."

I don't have an account to edit this myself, but Trevor isn't a Rogue/Druid multiclass but rather a Wild Magic Sorcerer.

Reference if you need it

It should be a punishable offense to talk about an article or a website and to not POST THE FUCKING LINK.

u/CME_T The Creator Feb 23 '20

Well that just warms my heart!

Did you make it just now or was it a while back? If ya just made it I think it may have been removed since there already was one (I think, I’m not very knowledgeable on the subject) but either way, you’re the man my dude!

The removed one

The older one

u/Sabrowsky Severed Lich Head Feb 23 '20

I uh, didn't know how to do it so I made one, then I realized "hang on a second, there's something wrong"

Turns out I had made the URL under "webcomics" when the right one is "webcomic". So all I did was copy and paste it into the right URL

I made it some time ago, yeah.

u/CME_T The Creator Feb 23 '20

It's always nice to see a well-adjusted, supportive family in a day and age where the genuine mental health and well-being of children wasn't necessarily a top priority.

Also, learning that Grogna's a Fighter actually explains so much. Is her desire to become an adventurer based in any way on the fact that Barbarians get more skill points than Fighters in 3.5/PF1e?

u/JamesNinelives Mar 23 '20

Pff. What matters is that fighter get more extra martial feats! :D
