Nerd By Northwest #361 - "Efficiency Expert"
(Click on the image to see the full-size version)
This latest installment borrows directly from our gaming group's last playthrough of "The Glacial Rift of the Frost Giant Jarl". The exchange went something like this:
Me: "How long for my cantrips to melt the ice to get at the loot?
DM: "Eh... say, about an hour for each corpse."
Me: "How long if we break off the hands or limbs with the loot and just thaw those?"
DM: (after a rather long pause) "Uh... ten minutes?"
Me: "Oh yeah, we're totally doing that."
It's little things like that which is probably why our Dungeon Master has named our gaming sessions with titles starting with "Murderfriends" (i.e. "Murderfriends Against the Giants", "Murderfriends Out of the Abyss", "Murderfriends vs. Tomb of Annihilation...). 😏
On a more somber note... due to the recent loss of a family member back in the US, myself and the family will very soon be traveling back to the Washington state for six weeks. So while I will bring my drawing tablet along, spare time will be sporadic so please bear with me if it takes a little longer to produce and release the next couple strips. Thank you for your patience and your readership!

Will you be on the Spokane side of the state by any chance?
Afraid I'll be all the way on the other end over on the Olympic Peninsula, where even the SeaTac airport is a 2 hour drive. Beautiful location, but quite a bit out of the way and chock full of senior citizens driving way too slow... 😉
Oh, well. Have a !BEER and survive!

Yes, it's hacking apart a corpse, but really you can't argue with the efficiency...
Sorry to hear about your loss, and welcome back to the states.
Exactly! It's not like the corpse is gonna feel the lower legs being cut off to get at his magic boots. 😉
Anyway, thanks man. Not a pleasant reason to be back in the States, but we'll try to enjoy some nice fall weather and easy access to Taco Bell while we're there...
