An adventuring party with several dwarves and a halfling are tied up in a cage over a big fire. A classic wizard in gray robes stands nearby looking exasperated.
Wizard: Why are you always getting into trouble whenever I leave?
Dwarf: Because you’re the only one powerful enough to keep us out of trouble!
The fire is out, and the adventuring party is climbing out of the cage. The wizard casually blasts the last of the enemies.
Wizard: That’s okay. I’m back now, so I’ll just take care of it.
Wizard: Next, we need to cross the treacherous dragon mountains of Urandor.
The Wizard climbs aboard a giant bird. The party runs after him in desperation.
Wizard: I have an errand to run, but I’ll see you on the other side!
Party: Wait!!!
P.S. Our bills are paid by our wonderful patrons. Could you chip in?
LOL … good one again, Bunny and Chris!
Good to have you back, Bunny!
Yeah, that wizard is way too powerful. We might as well have an evil wizard that’s even more overpowered to oppose them. That’ll break the plot in no time.
“I have an errand to run.”
*gets on eagle* *drops ring into Mount Doom* *saves world* *dusts hands*
“All in a day’s work. Now, let’s see about those dragon mountains…”
Haha!! Gotta love the over-powered character who’s over-powered in every way except for the one way which would be useful…
A wizard had to do what a wizard had to do. If he wanted to be an adventurer he would have been an adventurer. Kids this day get to the adventurer business and then expect the all powerful wizard to come save them. So bold.
This comic is giving me flashbacks to a recent D&D campaign…
This seems pretty straightforward. Where’s the joke?
“Forgive my intermittent accompaniment, Fellowship. It’s just, uh… I’m technically immortal, so this whole ‘End of the World’ thing… it doesn’t really grab me, y’know?”
The wizard climbing onto an eagle cracked me up!
No, I can’t let you borrow that eagle. The trip will build up your teamwork and … stuff.
