Okay one more time: THEY’RE PCs and some of them fairly high level at that. If you haven’t started to run yet its mostly likely to late and you deserve what you get.
Arka personally doesn’t care for gender-specific class titles, the goblin that tied up Chasta just had to know, and, once the goblins were finished “securely” binding the prisoners and then left them unattended, Bree decided to make herself a little more comfortable.
I like a good mystery. I have to wonder how much of the eerie stuff and out-of-character behavior going on is caused by Sephni, why she’s doing it, and what she’s become.
It sure looked like Sephni caused Bree’s sudden change in personality, and then there’s the bringing people back from the dead. But the gag vanishing is new. And was it really Arka’s own idea not to scan Bree?
Well, I’d wager that Arka had an intention to scan Bree – she just never had a chance since she scanned Sephni first, and… well, this happened.
Also, I’s say it’s Jen who caused Bree’s change of personality in first place – Sephni is simply restoring Bree’s previous persona as much as she could. Well, as much as she wants to, rather – but that’s just speculation.
Speaking of which, since a place of divinity is never empty, there are some apotheotic shenanigans happening, most probably. In short, we have a new Devourer here, model 2.0, improved and enhanced.
And her faithful entourage, of course – a future High Priest (or Plat Principal in secret cult language); a Slave-Paladin of Hunger, Insatiable Protector of Faith and Degustaror-in-chief; and two aperitifs (of red and white sort, to be used depending of the composition of the Sacred Meal).
[Offtopic :By the way Wormius , I’m loving this comic so far when it comes with much nudity content 🙂 , I was thinking ( I think I asked this before but didn’t got reply , so sorry if I ask this again ). Have you thought of shareing or uploading this comic on “Tapas app “ ( you heard of ?) , thought it could look nice for mobile readers ? ]
Thank you! I checked out Tapas, but I don’t really think Delve fits in with their content guidelines. I think the nudity in Delve could definitely be described as “gratuitous”! 8)
Same here, have both the Lion and Vehicle Force series’ on DVD
Just this was used in “Grrl Power” a couple years(?) ago when the main character used one of her balls to scan a crowd in a nightclub to reveal their true appearance (main character is a major geek nerd 😀 )
Using light, and its more and more common because computers, it’s all red+green+blue combos. Pigments only reflect light but the complementary colors are used in traditional tricomy (cyan, magenta and yellow) and quatricomy (plus black) for printing.
You may be right re. Sephni’s aura’s color. It’s pure blue, and thus priest aura is cyan (blue+green).
So if red is warrior and blue is demon(?), what is green? Softie?
We may need a standardized color coding for classes, it’s clear that the orc woman knows about that, she might want to give us a lesson…
You can’t just change the Primary colours because you feel like it, or because you are using a computer
As for what Green signifies, we will just have to wait and see if Arka scans someone who is green
Butt, if we are going by Secondary colours been a combination of their Primary source, then Green would be Blue + Yellow= Demonic Disciple? Wait, Miko is also Blue, just because Sephni looks scary doesn’t mean she’s demonic, some Biblical Angels were hella scary when they wanted to be, sooo, have no idea what a combination of Priest & Disciple would be, so don’t believe we can use what Primary colours are to guess what Secondary colours will be
I’m using the primary colors as defined by some scientific body (London Academy of Whatever, I don’t recall the exact name) many decades ago. It’s been used since Maxwell, more than a century ago, but it gained importance as color photography first, TV later and of course computers now became prominent. The RGB model of color is standard when you deal with colors as made directly by light (and color is our interpretation of visible light), although there is another complementary method CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) used for printing, i.e. when dealing with pigments in a standardized/industrial (and quite convenient) manner.
The so called “primary colors” is way too old school, forget about them. It didn’t work well anyhow.
…
Now, as for the meaning of colors, it was just a wild speculation, surely the gods of this plane don’t work by my rules but their own, so no idea.
If blue should be interpreted as the same color of aura for Miko and Sephni (not my belief but I’ll go with that for the sake of argument), then both should be priests. But Sephni is priestess of what? Of The Devolurer! Maybe that’s what the orc gal saw…
When you say “primary colors” you mean the RYB (red, yellow, blue) color model. I quote from Wikipedia: “RYB predates modern scientific color theory, which has determined that cyan, magenta, and yellow are the best set of three colorants to combine, for the widest range of high-chroma colors”.
This is only for the subtractive color mixing, for the additive or light-based color mixing it’s always used RGB, and, even if I was also taught the RYB color model in school (what a waste!) and we used simple CMY (tricomy) colors in our maths books back then, I strongly prefer the RGB additive system because today everything is done with computers allowing great precision in selection of the exact hue based on that model (for which CMY is the complementary system).
That’s how they tried to “explain” us in school. However I was so nit-picky with colors that I rejected the “racial” categories “black” and “white” and argued that it was “brown” and “beige” (go figure!), so I was also very unhappy with magenta (or “pink” as I called it as a kid) being called “red”. Techically magenta is 50% red and 50% blue, so I was not at all wrong, the RYB model is the wrong one.
However there is one reason why the RYB model was so successful and still lingers: in a normal human eye, color receptors peak to these three colors and not to green (as should be per the RGB model, that splits light/color in near-equal radiowave segments) and that’s why we see the green-cyan zone as “almost blue”, i.e. our eyes are not good enough to discern green as primary, maybe because it’s so common in nature, but it is.
Eh, I wouldn’t say she’s being a slut. Keep in mind part of her, well, mind is a girl who thinks she’s dreaming, which basically means her inhibitions have been turned off, as though she were drunk. That said, I am curious what she’d actually scan as, but I have no clue why you’d think she might show up as makeup.
Still say that Breen is under some sort of spell, and the fact that Snark is able to find so many willing females to breed with seems kinda fishy, specially seeing how they are all from different races: he gets to keep the ones who fall under his spell (literal spell in this case) and eats those who are able to resist
Okay, new theory about Sephni. Looking at the glow of the gem around her neck, combined with the same colored glow around her body, I suspect that choker is an artifact (likely devoted to the devourer). She’s been influenced/corrupted/posessed/driven crazy by the artifact (or artefact, depending on your particular place of English). If you look, she goes out of her way to put this back on in:
I think that separating her from the choker will be required at some point, and raw speculation being that the more she was devoured and brought back by the choker, the more control it has over her brain and them ore in touch with the devourer she gets/will get.
I wonder if this is related to what the Valryn saw, looking at the Devourer back in #361. They do seem to be in an awful hurry to get to Bree before something very bad can happen.
My guess, it’s just that Bree and Sephni are probably high-teen level by now, whereas most orcs tend to be low single digits … and that spell just revealed both the power discrepancy and the realization of what that difference truly means: Bree could slaughter the tribe in its entirety if she really felt like it.
Arka never got to Breen
As to the slaughtering part? Yeah, that’s gonna happen when she snaps out of the submissive fuck-bot spell, more so if she remembers what it made her feel and almost do
Never saw “The Walking Dead”? In particular, the episode where they made it to ‘Terminus’, the supposed ‘safe zone’? Can’t remember what season it was (it also had a blond Penguin from “Gotham”)
Not missed much, the first couple seasons were okay, now it’s just trash: Rick and Co stumbling upon a community that has somehow found a way to survive, within a day or two, a week tops, Rick and Co have either personally killed everyone in the community or have lead the undead straight to a secret previously-unknown weak spot in the defences and the community is overrun by nightfall
Okay one more time: THEY’RE PCs and some of them fairly high level at that. If you haven’t started to run yet its mostly likely to late and you deserve what you get.

Well… Sephni is looking delightfully extra psycho this page.
Love how Bree knew to yell at Sephni for making problems.??
That’s because Sephni was the last one to be scanned
Just surprised Arka didn’t start with Chasta if she planned to leave Breen for last
Thanks!
Dammit, *after* the ravishing, Sephni! *~After!~*
Heh heh 8)
Walking Dead flashback, bad Mr Author, very bad!
8)
Okay, why is the chef being scanned as a priest (and not even priestess)?
Why has Chasta’s tits been released?
And… did Bree eat her gag? o_O
Arka personally doesn’t care for gender-specific class titles, the goblin that tied up Chasta just had to know, and, once the goblins were finished “securely” binding the prisoners and then left them unattended, Bree decided to make herself a little more comfortable.
Strange…..very strange indeed?

Whatever Bree is now, she’s still has some pretty good rogue skills, when she needs them.
Good to know!
So how does the sentence follow? A… chaos goddess, a demon, a… what?
It’s frustrating not knowing the answer for a whole week or so.
And of course no idea of what Bree is by now. She used to be a rogue at the beginning but now, with so much RL/fantasy hubris who knows?!
See it’s all your fault Sephni. Now Tuul isn’t going to get ravished by the large burly orcs.
I am rolling on the for fucking laughing at that last bit!
Sorry Bree but any Orc ravishing will have to wait! XD
…Though when it does happen…
Oh no!! Throat cutting ? … for what ?!

For the same reason in “Walking Dead”: for food

What ? No I don’t think so , other comics on tapas has nudity such as this
https://m.tapas.io/series/SatanNinja
So it’s alright 🙂 you just have to put all pages with M filter on it ..
Is it possible again ?( u could try , if possible and got time for that )
Or other example , like this 🙂 https://m.tapas.io/series/CKarrus
Or this https://m.tapas.io/series/Bohemian-Nights
Was it you who mentioned Tapas on the “Keep on the Borderland” webic?
Hi and yeah it’s me 🙂 ,. Is it not ok idea ? I’m not forcing
Just found the wording to be similar, butt a different username 😀
What’s a Sark?
Arka’s Brother and the Chief of the Orc tribe
Honestly, surprised you didn’t go with “Give me Sight Beyond Sight!” for Arka 😛
Oddly enough, I was more of a Voltron guy, back in the day. 8)
Same here, have both the Lion and Vehicle Force series’ on DVD

Wild chromatic speculation: if bue = priest and red = warrior and, of course, purple = red + blue, then Sephni is warrior-priest?
Extension 1: Tuul is yellow = disciple, but yellow = red + green, what is green? Tuul is warrior-what?
Surely all kinds of wrong, I know.
What? Yellow is not red + green, red + green = brown
Red, Yellow & Blue are the Primary colours, not Green (which is Yellow + Blue)
Sephni is a bright blue, not purple (don’t go by the body colour, or Tuul would be green)
Using light, and its more and more common because computers, it’s all red+green+blue combos. Pigments only reflect light but the complementary colors are used in traditional tricomy (cyan, magenta and yellow) and quatricomy (plus black) for printing.
You may be right re. Sephni’s aura’s color. It’s pure blue, and thus priest aura is cyan (blue+green).

Just thought of something: if Cyan Blue is Priest, could Dark Blue be higher up the divine foodchain? Maybe an Avatar? o_O

MYC is just a different shade of RYB, and Green is a mix of Yellow & Blue

Gonna take a guess and say that if Bree had been scanned it would have come up slut instead of rouge or thief.
Eh, I wouldn’t say she’s being a slut. Keep in mind part of her, well, mind is a girl who thinks she’s dreaming, which basically means her inhibitions have been turned off, as though she were drunk. That said, I am curious what she’d actually scan as, but I have no clue why you’d think she might show up as makeup.

Childrens’ rhyme in the real world: “A butcher, a baker, a candlestick maker.”
In Delve: “A warrior, a priest, a disciple, a…fukin’ ell !!”
(Note: Delve is not suitable for young children or their rhymes)
Okay, new theory about Sephni. Looking at the glow of the gem around her neck, combined with the same colored glow around her body, I suspect that choker is an artifact (likely devoted to the devourer).

I wonder if this is related to what the Valryn saw, looking at the Devourer back in #361. They do seem to be in an awful hurry to get to Bree before something very bad can happen.

As to the slaughtering part? Yeah, that’s gonna happen when she snaps out of the submissive fuck-bot spell, more so if she remembers what it made her feel and almost do
Fukin’ell? Nope, never heard of that class before. Must be one of those new elf only classes from 4th edition…
I’m kind of wondering what’s the deal with the “boobie trough” they all seem to be leaning on..
Are they getting milked or something?
Never saw “The Walking Dead”? In particular, the episode where they made it to ‘Terminus’, the supposed ‘safe zone’? Can’t remember what season it was (it also had a blond Penguin from “Gotham”)
..Nope, never watched any of that.
Not missed much, the first couple seasons were okay, now it’s just trash: Rick and Co stumbling upon a community that has somehow found a way to survive, within a day or two, a week tops, Rick and Co have either personally killed everyone in the community or have lead the undead straight to a secret previously-unknown weak spot in the defences and the community is overrun by nightfall
Thank you! I was wondering about that too
