We Delve
Chapter: Season Six
I wrote/sketched this piece a few years ago and it is one of those things I have wanted to finish. Since we are between arcs, I thought now was a good time to do it. I hope you enjoy it.
Thank you all for your patience yesterday. I celebrated my birthday on Tuesday and had some crispy duck that gave me a nasty case of food poisoning. I am feeling better now and I am back at it.
Thank you all for reading.
HOVER-TEXT: We delve for the last piece of pizza.
I freaking love this. It gets me on a personal level.
That. Was. AWESOME.
I need this as a DM Screen. Or a poster. Or both.
Seconding this ^
Thirded! Wait, is that even a word?
Thirded is a word now. And Forthed!
It’s funny, but when I read that I flashed back to one of the first Adventure games I’d ever played, the kind where you read text, not look at images. I remembered how carefully you had to plan to make sure you had enough torches to finish a particular job.
There was always the Grue…
I also remembered the first time I’d seen the term “delving:”
“Far, far below the deepest delving of the Dwarves, the world is gnawed by nameless things.”
I felt the same way- great sentiments!
That terrible Grue lying in the darkness waiting….for your torch to…sputter…pop..sputter and then go out. The only sounds…your heart hammering in your chest and the scratch of the its nails on the carved stone floor.
Great one frame comic. I’m printing it out and hanging it on my cork board next to “The many deaths of Bob the fighter”.
I agee with Kaiden.
I like it.
Brian, that was fucking awesome! Happy belated birthday! Sorry about the bad crispy duck, that sucks. 🙁 I hope you don’t mind that I just spammed this all over the various IRC channels I’m in…
I’m going to use this in my current campaign for the Delvers Union. This is too good! Thanks!
Can you do that, the society logo, and the comic logo (and url) all on something that’ll print nice on 8.5×11 landscape? I’ll front and center that shit on my screen for public play.
Happy Birthday my friend, Mine comes up in may. In either case I can see you have something that jsut might be EARTH SHATTERING coming up fast. I congratulate you ahead of time in either case since I can see it coming, and I also curse you, with the greatest curse ever known, “May you live in interesting times.”
I had to share this with my gaming group… very nice 🙂
PS: Happy belated birthday, Brian! May the coming year be kind to you 🙂
Happy Birthday man! I am also a March 15th. Ides of March friend.
I love this!!! Can we get a wallpaper of this!
Should have stuck to the big Caesar salad.
So… yeah. I cried a little.
I’m hoping my party will feel the same when I burn it into the back of my DM’s screen.
I’ve been wanting to put something there, but I got a shirt for the “Crunchy/Ketchup” quote shortly before I bought the screen… and I’ve needed something.
And this is perfect~
Okay, I just got chills. This is one of my favorite webcomics, to the extent that I am starting to research how to get into D&D (No, I didn’t play D&D before starting this comic, please don’t lynch me!), and now I find out that the author of this comic, one of my new favorite comics, has his birthday THE DAY BEFORE MINE. THIS IS AWESOME. Happy belated birthday to you, sir, from a fellow mid-Marcher.
I loved that piece…
… and I gave a standing ovation for the hover-text. 🙂
Holy $#!t, you wrote We Delve?!?! Ha! If you could have seen my face just now! I read this somewhere…. Facebook maybe? And it was (and is) awesome!
Ok done exclaiming. Off to finish my catchup.
Thanks! (Ok one more exclamation)
This is pretty cool. Is it referring to any group in particular, or dungeon-crawlers in general?
It sounds like Amon Amarth song. Love it.
