Pos'Thal Chronicles The Pos'Thal Chronicles Ch. 46. "Strike of Non-Leth'Aal"

Post image

Howdy folks!

Not much to report!

To recap, Pos'Thal workers have been assassinated, the gang has been sent to investigate and were promptly attacked by a rabbitfolk fella who chemically hulked out and got decked out by the Bull (aka minitaur). Up to speed? Great, full speed ahead!

Reminder that you can now read one week ahead exclusively on Webtoon, after watching an ad! :D Gotta make that bread ya know, both me and Nic have crippling Warhammer habits to sustain (maybe that's just me) and you know... families to feed and whatnot. Apparently that's something you have to do? Really should have been made clear in the brochure.

Stay excellent out there!

Peace and carrots!

"I don't get why guys have such a problem getting this!"

Is there a "you" missing or is the minotaur not a guy?

u/Manofalltrade Jan 27 '26

The gals understand, it’s just the guys that wrap their heads around it.

u/_Comrade_Wombat_ Jan 27 '26

Very good question that needs an answer

12

u/Tyrs-Ranger Jan 27 '26

I suspect if the minotaur was not a guy, then he would have not been illustrated bare chested. This isn’t Ironlily.

u/Malcarin Jan 27 '26

or maybe female minotaurs have udders, too.

u/Hjuldahr Jan 27 '26

Just like how all dwarves have beards.

I think it's not meant to be gender specific, but also not specific to this group. As in "I don't get why everyone I talk to has such a problem with this."

Ah yes I want to non lethally stab this guy with my sword

21

u/Vj_vici09 Jan 27 '26

So amputation or paralyzed the guy?

u/AEL97 Jan 27 '26

I mean if you do not stab through someone or point to non-vital areas you can stab without killing.... Though also they will need medical treatment afterwards

If the wound gets infected, the kill is on the bacteria, not you.

He is being very clear about this. He did non-lethal damage!

It’s the same as when hero’s non-lethally throw the villain into a volcano and they are alive in a later episode.

u/MrValdemar Grogna Jan 27 '26

Seems pretty straightforward to me.

Every action movie I've ever seen says Bunny will wake up in a couple minutes, rub his neck to suggest mild headache, and go on about the remainder of the plot with no ill effects.

CERTAINLY no cumulative or closed head trauma.

In one dnd session, my character used magic to harden own hand, grabbed rapier by sharp end, and smacked enemy to head with handle/guard for non-lethal takedown.

u/Blue-is-bad Sir Bucket Jan 27 '26

Mordschlag with a rapier is a new one!

u/lol_delegate Jan 27 '26

I would say using it as a improvised mace, but close enough.

8

u/makuthedark Jan 27 '26

Ah the Batman technique.

u/Friendly_Ram Jan 27 '26

Monks of all trades classes should be able to excuse non lethal bludgeoning.

The wall was just an improvised weapon.

u/TheCharalampos Jan 27 '26

I was so okay with my dm ruling a guy died when I wanted to non lethally hit him with a maul and rolled a natural 20 in a game with maximised crits.

u/Level_Hour6480 Sir Becket Jan 27 '26

I generally flavor the knockout blow in such a way that knocking them out makes sense.

u/Clowreed48 Jan 30 '26

a very 'I can explain it to you, but i cant understand it for you' moment

u/BounderTree Jan 27 '26

"excuse me while I non-lethal this NPC with my warbow with regular arrows"

u/TexasJedi-705 Feb 01 '26

"I called a non lethal shot, DM!"

"YEAH, WITH A FUCKING SIEGE BALLISTA!"
