Demon

Post by SirButcher » Tue Aug 02, 2016 1:16 pm

Uh, guys, something just hit me:

Complains looks like becoming a demon. And MinMax someone who KNOWS the best weapon against the demons: his name. Most likely nobody else knows about this thing (assuming Kin is very clever/intelligent, and she didn't knew about this). So most likely Minmax (and Forgath) is the only one around who knows you can control a demon using his name. (And, we just got this info about a decade ago from Not-Walter, in 2006)

So here we are, with a guy who knows how to control a demon, and a soon-to-be demon, whose name is clearly know.

You're not the first to suggest that.
Also, the current comic ( http://www.goblinscomic.org/07282016-2/ , panel 4) reminds us readers that knowing the name is control...

Link will work until fully shaded page is up...

Other people have suggested that the party could use his name to control him, but I think this is the first time I've seen someone propose that MM will be the first/only one to catch onto that fact and use it, which could be really interesting.

Would Complains be un-banishable with his name if he's within the Hell-corrupted area the Axe-demon's making, since it's his place of origin?

I would say slaying a demon is a pretty good action. That would help with stabilizing the prison.

The thing is, that Complains' actions have so far NOT been evil....
