NP Comic for Saturday, Dec 31, 2022 "I've been working on the railroad, all the live long day ..." To be fair, it is supposed to be a quick game. It needs to stay on the rails.

NP Comic for Saturday, Dec 17, 2022 Nanase's smile in panel 2 is genuine, based on the circumstances, though it looks like a forced smile of someone covering up their displeasure, it looks too forced. I don't think we've ever seen her smile this broadly. That actually bodes well, it means she is not dwelling on her mom riding her about stuff, which seem to be the background of her psyche. She has a severe disconnect between her public face and what's going on inside; I think she barely lets Ellen in, to the best of her ability. Girl needs counseling. It will do her some good to get away from home; sadly, she will likely commute. Mom is watching out for her, mom wants her to do well, but they have a toxic relationship; mom is domineering, and fails to recognize, praise, and reward; withholds love and support. In all fairness, parenting is harder than it looks. Sadly, Bird Speech never happened.

NP Comic for Thursday, December 15, 2022 Larry yells "Bard Speech!", Ellen explains that he needs to explain what he wants to say. It would be funnier if he said "Bird Speech!".

NP Comic for Tuesday, December 6, 2022 Everyone is jumping aboard Larry's theory, but George knows that this is not what happened. What is George really doing? He does not seem like he would derail Ellen for kicks. Maybe wants to see how she handles the stress? Weird, and I eagerly await the follow-up. Nanase is applying her sleuthing skills to assist her leap to the wrong conclusion. She impressed Rich, although he doesn't know it.

NP Comic for Saturday, Dec 3, 2022 Well, that's solved. Time to pack up and go home. ... But, since the cleric was just for fixing the fall down the stairs, he's not involved at all. I guess "za?' means "Oh, my, this is taking an unexpected turn. I am sooo surprised.", because, face it, that never happens when running an RPG.

NP Comic for Thursday, Dec 1, 2022 Seems like the guard had a legitimate reason for being missing. The bard asking questions seems reasonable, not getting why it is a point of minor drama in the last panel. Kind of a, "OK ..." topic. George, who suggests it, stated early on that his character is lazy. But it does have an oddity, which in hindsight is carried over from previous comics; the character's names are not used. It's not, '<the character's name>' ', it's 'the bard'. Similarly, in previous comics, the players refer to each other by their player name. "Nanase fell down the stairs", "I turn to Nanase (and say ...)", "My mission is to find out more about your girlfriend?" (Rich refers to the player, not to the character) ... Because , just before that, Ellen said, "You've been tasked with learning more about Nanase" ; OK, George named his sorceress 'George', Larry's bard is refered to as 'Larry', in the same comic, Nanase's character is referred to as 'Nanase', ah, Ellen addresses this issue, and George officially names his sorceress 'George'; Rich's character has not been addressed; but in the September 24 NP comic, Ellen states that they will be using their real names for their characters. Guessing this was to avoid a layer of potential confusion from the story line, "Which one was <character name>?". It feels odd, but it does read easier. As Ellen says (paraphrase), "By the time you figure this out, we'll be done."

NP Comic for Tuesday, November 29, 2022 Your train has left the rails. Really, Larry should have probably figured out exactly why the cleric suddenly appeared.

NP Comic for Thursday, November 17, 2022 "We are saving that chicken" (for dinner tomorrow).
-
NP Comic for Thursday, November 10, 2022 Huh, Rich gives a genuine compliment, and Nanase struggles to respond. ... She's familiar with real magic, wonders how it relates to 'magic' in the game context. They think her response is spot on for a person with no clue. I guess it is.

NP Comic for Tuesday, November 8, 2022 Nanase is channeling Susan and Diane. Check for the guard that happens to be a rooster. She ran off with him, flew the coop!

NP Comic for Tuesday, November 1, 2022 Chicken? Chicken? Chicken? Pfffft. Chicken! It's alive! Or at least was, recently, the current state of the chicken has yet to be determined. Frankly, if I wanted to hide a chicken, eating it would be a good option. The mayor, what with bribing judges and misusing public resources, is not exactly above board. This could be significant later. He's also not sharpest tool in the shed; 'security second to none' sounds rather extravagant for a 'prize winning chicken'. Also seems to jump to conclusions, albeit for RP railroad reasons; chickens disappear due to mortal men or animals all the time, security not withstanding. His world has rogues, who can get around security. His world also presumably has inside jobs. Also, individual feathers 'go missing' all the time. The chicken yard is littered with a few, always. They didn't grow there, they fell off of chickens. I like how Ellen uses their reaction, basically holds them accountable for casual remarks. Well, here's hoping they can rescue their plucky charge, and don't end up with egg on their faces.

NP Comic for Thursday, October 27, 2022 No one is that out of touch with role playing terms, are they? They are borrowed from other parts of our culture. 'Plot hook' existed long before D&D. Herding kittens isn't even particularly a role playing term, although it often applies. Working theory for my head canon, Nanase is just that sheltered by her mom.
-
NP Comic for Tuesday, October 25, 2022 Rich does not exactly flow with this. He comes across as mechanical. My impression is he is focused on 'winning the game'. I love George's reaction. The subtext I get is, "I don't care enough about what you're saying to have a real opinion about it."

Comic for Wednesday, October 19, 2022 What is this comic? EGS NP++? Is it canon in EGS NP? It's been so long, I don't remember ... (Checking the notes at the bottom, apparently Dan is having memory issues with his comic as well. Bunny Diane was an odd surprise until I clicked the link.) Really, not too much dust on the old comic stream. Many go into hiatus for months or years; some permanently, TBD. Not much to say about the comic, it's a set up recap, maybe highlighting an aspect of Diane, maybe introducing it. She has not really been secretive up to this point, mostly callously shallow and very analytical. She seems to have a fairly healthy level of disregard for convention; one extreme is stifling, the other is just wrong. She has shown on numerous occasions that she cares for others in spite of the callous persona. This 'secrets' thing seems new. Nanase, of all people, should recognize the need. perhaps she's overcompensating. Enough. It's just one recap comic; the purpose will be revealed shortly.

NP Comic for Saturday, October 15, 2022 Rich's expression seems to invite a face punch. Am I wrong? (Yes, you are; he's actually inviting Ellen to blast him with her beam.) Later ... "The dragon offers to trade the MacGuffin for the shiny new paladin." "Hell, yeah, it's a deal!" "Yeah, if you're sure, you want him." "Do you want us to shine him up for you?"

NP Comic for Tuesday, October 11, 2022 Polka Face!

NP Comic for Saturday, October 8, 2022 "Stop stairing at me, George! I hate that!" "I'm a human rouge. My face is red."

https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/wie-035 This must be some sort of magical ability Certainly no ordinary human could generate a glare like that I wonder if Tedd can make a wand for this? - - - - - On a side note, did anyone else have trouble reaching the 910CMX website early Saturday morning (US Eastern time)?

NP Comic for Thursday, September 22, 2022 Kittens do not herd well. Let's hope she packs a cattle prod.
-
NP Comic for Tuesday, September 20, 2022 A bit manipulative, but, meh, Rich needs some guidance, she did a good thing and helped him along.
-
NP Comic for Thursday, September 15, 2022 Hmm, his behavior is very un-Rich-like. He must still be seeing that authoritarian likeness. Panel 3, "Hey, Rich, my eyes are down here!" He's staring up at his illusion, or possibly the flying pony tail.
-
NP Comic for Thursday, September 8, 2022 Looks like Ellen has a plan.
-
NP Comic for Saturday, September 3, 2022 Just say, "This isn't my thing, you'll have to guide me." Nice angel and devil characters.

NP Comic for Tuesday, August 23, 2022 There should be an RPG for Shakespearian actors where they can stretch out each action into a noteworthy stage event. "You kill the goblins." "I pick up the nearby corpse. 'Oh, what tragedy has befallen your tainted life! You are set aside by society, and society names you the monster! Would that they had to walk in your shoes, who then would the monster be?' I loot the corpse." "You find five silver, two copper, and a rusty knife."
