Suitable Pun-ishment
posted by Jordan on 2009/2/3 (Comics)
Busy at the moment. I'll add some further comments later, but for now, enjoy the new comic.
EDIT: Alright, I'm back. Things are certainly heating up in today's comic, aren't they?
...Sorry.
So I was thinking last night, and I came up with a bit of an interesting idea. I love music. Specifically, soundtracks. I own soundtracks from pretty much every movie that I've enjoyed within the past 5 years. And if there's one thing I love to do with my own creative works, it's assigning the music to certain situations or characters that I've written. Nine times out of ten, this really helps me write the overall story.
Now, here's your chance to help inspire me a little. Tell me what songs you think fit in this comic. What would Lana's theme sound like to you? Or Aldran's? Or anyone's? Imagine that you've just been put in charge of coming up with the Anti-Heroes soundtrack. What would you use?

Aldran: Slash!, Mabinogi
Keriss: Dungeon 6, Mabinogi
Lana: Muriance Battle, Mardek
Kaal: Ibbie theme, Mabinogi
Eldhin: Shadow Boss, Mabinogi
Rallut: Ferghus theme, Mabinogi
Zurie: Ethna theme, Mabinogi
Quentas: Secret Boss, Mardek
Arderas: GdM theme, Mardek
Finx: Legion theme, Mardek
Laris: Saviors theme, Mardek
Veil Druid: Saul theme, Mardek
My guess is that grand marshal of Ivory veil who would replace all legions with "magic casting something"
Just some random speculation, and more based on theatrics than anything, but I get the feeling that Lana won't be able to drink that potion even if she wanted to. Likely because our smirking spellcaster takes it.

I was going to suggest lists of Final Fantasy music for the characters, but maybe they're too recognisable as being FF tracks and wouldn't really give the impression of belonging to anti-HEROES characters.
And I don't think I can out-do Taiyama. Some of his/her suggestions I don't think are fitting at all (Lana's is definitely not!) but the rest seem perfect. More "serious" music (Apocalyptica, et al) wouldn't seem to fit for me, the comic's never entirely serious for any length of time. Anyway, great comic!
Also, you're lucky I'm a bored insomniac
Eldhin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pged9xJWgVA&feature=channel_page (could also fit Finx too), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyIvFPf0Ba4&feature=channel_page (could work for Aldran too), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeBH9vk3VYU&feature=channel_page (Man, I'm finding a lot for him, hehe).
Aldran: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLwZ9sDbDyk&feature=channel_page (this one's kind of a stretch, but I figured I'd throw it in anyway), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_2BSHbv3SY&feature=channel_page (this might be good for Keriss too), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=On5-kabERmo&feature=channel_page (probably good for a sad time with him, rather than an overall theme).
Lich-Felix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VmwRETabSo&feature=channel_page (mainly for use when the group is fighting him).
Kaal: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUCrb8mv2x8&feature=channel_page (kinda silly, but Kaal is a silly person).
Lana: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_C4yBssyoTY&feature=channel_page (not exactly fitting a vampire, I know--again, a stretch, but I wanted to throw it out there for ya).
Laris: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caRKvQAyU7M&feature=channel_page (a bit of a stretch, admittedly), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gimRrOGkkw&feature=channel_page (more fitting his pomposity than the last one).
The Fight Between Aldran and Eldhin (or any time they face off): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGwFwqHdrng&feature=related (that one fits like a glove in my opinion--darkly epic), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3N2tbS9ctbQ&feature=channel_page (this one is good for any epic fight).
Keriss' guild or any other guild you deem fitting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-_D8_M03H0&feature=channel_page
The Ivory Veil itself (or the "god" of the Ivory Veil): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbdp89sSP_8&feature=channel_page, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Qh4g_b9xJw&feature=channel_page
“I say he looks like a Druid that has taken a VoP, or just has a el'natural streak in him considering the tattered clothes. Now is the spell from the staff (better not be a magical staff or it violates the VoP)or is it just being used as a pointing device? that is my question”
I think the staff is magical, and not just a focus for the fire spell, on the grounds that it has a shiny gem at the top.
As to the VoP idea, this universe isn't very flashy when it comes to magical equipment, so a single staff and some tattered clothing doesn't necessarily yell VoP, to me at least. See Aldran and Eldhin for the main example, both of them are epic-level but appear to have very little gear (Eldhin only has his armor, boots, sword and possibly the cape. Aldran doesn't seem to have any magical gear at all, though there is probably some that we can't see.)
Bob the Ninja: She probably didn't make her reflex save. After all, it seems like just about everyone aside from Kaal is more powerful than Lana.
If it was regarding team Thralls of the Dark God, I meant they make Evil look EVIL. Can there be any doubt that Elf-Boy is a NE druid? Druid because of wild shape and nonchalant flamethrowing, NE because that's the only evil druids /can/ be.
“You mean, they make evil look good?”I think he meant they make evil look effective.
Why didn't Lana try out her Summon Wolves? Definitely more effective than those meager two bats she keeps using.
I don't think he just wants to kill her because she's unnatural. For one thing, he was listening in, so he knew quaffing the bottle was a less violent alternative. Despite this, he asked for Lana instead of the bottle. And then of course you have that annoying smirk.
Ganurath: You mean, they make evil look good?
I don't think i've ever seen a "smek" sound before.
The crow WAS a Shapechanged person! Oh my gosh that is too funny!
So, I guess that while Team Aldran makes evil look good and Team Ehldin makes good look evil, Elf-Boy is with the team Aldran's plan is trying to thwart: They who make evil look evil.
He doesn't look like he's from Tydaris, however. Not enough white, and there's not a stick jutting out from his ass.
Good comix as ever!
