My first thought is to wonder about how she said an arm was ripped off by an ogre and not a sleeve.

This is a matter of speech bubble real estate. Those extra three letters means I'd have to re-word the whole phrase.

I certainly dont know the full story behind the strip, but could be justified as the arm WAS ripped off by an Ogre and regenerate (or insert other healing spell here if not RAW D&D) was used later.

I think Razira's just very forward and blunt with her words, I'd say it's more in-character for her to refer to the "arm" of a tunic rather than the "sleeve".

I feel that I usually fail at making her dialogue quite as uncomplicated as it should be, she's not a simpleton or anything, she just doesn't have much need for flowery prose. It's hard to write in a voice that's not your own.


In our game, I don't think there are any priests anywhere capable of casting Regenerate - although Konsi's getting pretty close!
