The alliteration in the alt-text amuses me.

Is it just me, or is Fran cozying up to Niki... just to piss Naga off?
How could a plan this awesome possibly fail?

Actually, that last dialog exchange got kind of moved around and Nikki's line ended up on a different panel than intended. Plus her expression in the 7th panel ended up looking more like a grin then a sneer after the comic was reduced. The line was suppose to be sarcastic. But yes, Nikki is largely intended to be a foil to Naga. Fran also had a planned foil character but she was cut from the comic.

These double comics are very much appreciated! :D

But a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do I guess...

There should be one comic where you show there were evil, opposite "foil" characters for the entire cast... and then Nikki went on Ambien and started sleep-eating... and now there's just her.

I thought the opposite foil characters would be good, not evil. Or lawful, not chaotic. I guess that might be the better alignment axis.

As a DM I've been known to make it up as I go along, in fact that is most of what ANY DM does, 'cause seriously we're just reacting to the players.

Because character development is interesting (Also, the other options are a unlikable angry emo and an annoying old mother figure).
