When you cast a concentration spell, ending the last spell you were concentrating on.

This comic is part of an ongoing story that might make more sense with full context.

(These are "newest first", so start at the end and work backwards.)

Throughout October, I'll be drawing a piece of Konsi art every day as a Drawtober challenge. Here's the prompts I'll be using.

You can find the art on Mastodon, Tumblr, Bsky, or Twitter. First two are best.


Over the years, DnD sources have offered many different scripts for the celestial alphabet. I'm using a pretty old one here, largely because I like how it looks.

The glyphs translate to "ZETEMA" - which will be of no use to anyone trying to figure out what spell she just cast.

Sorry for all the people who wanted to see the rabbit go to town.

That's ok, the fact that she maintains the angry eyes while in flight made up for it.

Since I know people will want it, here's the glyph set I'm using for celestial.

I copied Konsi's first two poses from professional baseball photographs. I love how exaggerated baseball throws are.

OK that's really funny, I didn't understand why it resembles Hebrew and this is very very close (letter names are even the same).

Ignoring the table and reading it in Yiddish (which uses the same letters as in Hebrew with different pronunciation) this read closely to “oh my god“ ("omeged" but close enough)

Edit: reading right to left, of course.

Zetema?

Edit: I realize that E, I and O are the same, so it could be zitoma or something

Edit 2: Yo I got it right!

I thought it looked a lot like Hebrew. You did write it backwards though. And it's out of order in this picture too, ז is the 7th letter in the Hebrew alphabet but here it's listed as the last

I believe this "celestial alphabet" was based loosely on hebrew yes. They've more recently replaced it with their own glyphs, but also not officially published them all so... (shrug) - I just liked the shapes.

It's actually pretty close to Hebrew with sharper lines and a bunch of added dots and flourishes

Cheers to the captain, who is yelling "No surrender!" as his comrades charge a smol priestess and her pet rabbit.

His level of extra is commendable.

I just assumed she was casting something to transform Razira back into her own body so she could lay the smack down.

She is - but you might as well cast a useful spell when you do that...

I'm imagining Konsi doing the mickey surprise tool pose and now I wish I could draw.

From her goblin clan originally.

She's just had a lot of high level healing magic applied to her during her adventuring ties, so little nips like that tend to heal out. (The DMG actually has some guidelines for what levels of magic can heal various forms of minor permanent marks like scarring etc - it's interesting)

My DMG is on DnDB so it doesn't have page numbers - I'm getting it from the "lingering injuries" table in chapter 9.

Just read the title of your post and realized you were saying that she was casting a different spell, which ended her rabbit transformation spell.

I guess Razira can deflect blades with her thighs.

Good for you, Konsi. Good for you.

I have watched this several times and just now notice that the henchman repeating the gah is a kenku and this is hilarious :)

She has Strength, Sword's Dance, Heavy Slam, and Body Press

If this comic series ends in the Lincoln assassination, it truly would be a twist no one saw coming.

Instead of spamming Xs, use spoiler tags. When making a post, those little buttons above the text, it's the triangle (second from the right). Like so:

::: spoiler Spoiler Description Spoilered Text and Images :::

Or click the 3 dots under this and "View Source" to see how it's done.

Is something wrong with the pictrs database? I can't see the image... ☹️

My guess is spirit guardians. With the 3 attackers coming over, it would be a shame if they had to take damage to get close enough to attack.
