AmadanNaBriona Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Re: Order of the Stick To reference "On the Origin Of PC's" Vaarsuvius: "Bah! You are clearly only hiring me because I intimidated you intellectually, to the point where your masculine pride requires you to establish you dominance over my superior mind." Roy: "Maybe." "Or maybe I'm hiring you because I require the creation of a managed spherical energy release with a thermal signature no less than 1850* Kelvin, which can be manifested at a specific X, Y, and Z coordinates from verbal cues. I require this precise temperature because it is the minimum level at which necrotized epidermis has been proven to combust... and I have reason to believe that my mission will require the incapacitation of multiple post-organic hostiles." Pretty sure Roy's got a high INT. I can't see his dad pushing him towards Wizardry if he didn't have the chops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sociotard Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Re: Order of the Stick IIRC, it wasn't that Roy was smarter per se, but V looked bland. I guess Roy has more interesting thoughts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manic Typist Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Re: Order of the Stick No, Durkon was blad. V was a tasty looking burger whereas Roy was a full blown turkey dinner. I think that's a turkey, at least. The strip is linked in SteveZilla's post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
