..and it ain't your typical one composed of screenshots!



In the year 1070 AE, a young (too young) assassin named Tsukimiya ventured on a quest to Ascalon, only to see the kingdom be blown up before her eyes with the annoying flower-girl Gwen and everything.
Two years later, she joins the Vanguard, a group of soldiers who follow Prince Rurik of Ascalon, and travels with them all over the Shiverpeaks to Kryta to find a safe haven for the Ascalon refugee's and herself a boat to get back to Cantha. Unknowingly, the group of newfound friends have found themselves in an unavoidable fate known as the Flameseeker Prophecies..

A guildy commented on that earlier when that comic went up, but it's all about namesake instead of actual skill description, since those things wouldn't work well in-game :P
And it's more fun to see the squishy-killers crying in a corner than the squishies themselves. ^^

097: Plan A, Take Two

098: Plan B: Like Hell It'd Work

99 will be up later on Thursday (Today now, I guess. Past midnight for me).

It's hard to stuff jokes into "serious-like" fights. Oh well, won't take long.

lmao, I like your filler comics the most, they got the best jokes. "Creepy guy is creepy!" wins. Nice job, keep it up.

Haha, yeah. The filler ones are the comedic ones most of the time.
Guild Wars has a very tragic and depressing story you know!
Though it doesn't stop me from:
- Stabbing a man's greatest weakness #103: Sunset Duel of the Knight in White pt 4

- Summoning an early sort of Nightfall #104: Sunset Duel of the Knight in White pt 5
- and bringing a castle to life #105: The Kessex Peak Wizard's Tower

Thinking of making a few more comedic fillers after this storyarc
Oh well, next week we'll have never before seen footage of.. The inside of the Kessex Peak Wizard's Tower! *dundundun*

Since bumping is an evil deed;
#106: Inside the Unknown: Odran
#107: Broken Chains: Alter-Karuro

152: Tabris - Good of God

Should count as two I guess, since it's 6 rows long x.x
Had some trouble to draw out action, as always.
Is adding the skillicons to attacks also a nice touch? Just testing for now.

Yay, an update!
Typical... the one time I don't check for an update, you update.

I kinda like them actually USING the skills, but I'm not sure about the icons. Does reinforce the GW focus, though.
