It is by fae alone I set events in motion. It is by the marks of Alban that rats acquire fear, the arms acquire stains, the stains become a warning. It is by fae alone I set events in motion.

This should be interesting, but I doubt we'll see the consequences of those marks for another few months.

Haha, wait what?... Albanion and Nutmeg want to ask Mab to give them one of her parents souls to get a child, and their idea of this is to have her friends come to fae kingdom, and then curse one of them? Also hurting the feelings by not  :hug apparently weighs more than repeated back- :kruger with various weapons  :B
Well, since Albanion obviously seems to have his priorities straight turned upside down, clearly now the best course of action is to carefully plan ahead ... and then do the exact opposite!  :mwaha   
... Or maybe he will expect that? :mowdizzy

And to think that jy could be at his lab making things go boom this very instant  :)

Given that Jyrras has mastered an understanding of the principles of magic sufficiently to be able to mass produce it, well, given sufficient time to calm down and sufficient time in his lab, and I'd bet on him more than on the curse holding out.


Of course, I am blatantly engaging in wishful thinking, but... :D

It's Mab's responsibility to make amends.  She's the one who dragged them into the Fae World, she made Nutmeg pointy and unfavorable to hug, and why she didn't simply go flying after Jyrras when she saw him again is just another fault.

She's made this curse mark come to pass, it's her job to see that it's properly removed.

it seems to me that with physical harm being a rare thing among the Fae emotional trauma is bye far the more serious of the ting you can do to them. Remember Mab's Fear of being laughed at by the kingdom? i think that JyJy did some time similar to Nutmeg when he rejected her attempts to be friendly and hug him. heck he ran away in fear for his life. whats that going to do to a girl?

Or years.

I can't think of much to add.  Mana's got the point that Mab should be able to remove the mark with her own power or otherwise convince Albanion to give it up since she dragged them into this.

Could be either.  I'm pretty sure Albanion is the Fae on the council in 366.

In either case, I think this one of the most creepy strips I've ever seen in the mainline, possibly even Abel's Story.  The only other moment which I remember coming close to this was when I realised that 'Cubi could eat souls.

Now he will have to suffer the fate of all immortals, to suffer lonliness as he outlives his family, friends... especially his best friend, Dan, who happens... also... to be immortal? whups? I guess these curse things just aren't what it used to be. :P

On another note entierly, I can see that there's something there on each of Jyrras's wrists, but I can't make out what it is.  I hope that the marks will be shown larger and more clearly for the likes of us what are old fogies with bad eyesight. (From staring at computer monitors from less than three feet away all day, don'cha'know. ;) )

From what I can make out, it looks like a stylistic shackle design on weach wrist.  I have a feeling that he's going to bring wrist bands back in style once(if) he gets back to the relatively mundane realms of furrae.

And Abel.  Jyrras is certainly friends with him, whether the converse is true, we don't know for sure.

What would be really cool is if Albanion forbade him to die in such a way as to make him invulnerable, like Nutmeg.  He could then end up testing the weapons on himself, spending centuries of research trying in vain to find a way to kill himself...

Post by: Naldru on August 10, 2007, 06:21:11 AM
Wouldn't Jyrras feel misery, despair, and regret simply from the idea of being cursed?  Notice that Albanion says that Jyrras will have these emotions one day.  Is that one day in the future or a duration of one day.  If somebody never felt the emotions of misery, despair, and regret, wouldn't that be unusual.  Also, notice that Albanion doesn't say whether Jyrras will suffer.

In addition, isn't Jyrras already suffering from misery, despair, and regret over his situation with Lorenda?

Amber does like to mess with our heads.  Not saying that this is the case, but the hypothesis may be worthy of examination.

Another vote for the OMG CREEPIEST MAIN STORY COMIC EVAR pool.

And I kinda doubt the immortality/invulnerability theories. Not sure just what it is exactly, but I doubt that Jyrras suddenly joined the rank of those who'll be around in the next century (even though it would suddenly make him much more relationship-compatible to Dan, Abel, Kria and likely Lorenda ;)).

Seems to me that the fae are a little too comfortable with their position as the uber-dominent form of life on Furrae.  Being one that absolutely dispises powergamers, which is what it seems like they all are (does that make them Twinks?), I hope that Jyrras is able to find a way to break this curse, and put the fae down a few pegs.  Maybe knocking them downto the lowly status of beings would give them all a new look on existance.

Well, Fae may be indestructable, but it was shown that they can choose to die to be reborn as a new individual.  Let's all encourage Jyras to make device that triggers that power on fae without their consent.  Turn most of them into babbling newborns.  Maybe with some proper guidance the lot of them won't grow up to be twinks like this.  That's the only true weakness I can think of that the fae might have at this point.  I'd love to see Albanion be the first test subject.  Put him in th emachine and keep it on rapid-auto-reset.

Post by: Madmann135 on August 10, 2007, 08:52:53 AM
Well... we now know one thing.  
It's not all Fae that cause distruction in the kitchen, just Mab.

On a more serous note.
The 'curse' is probably one of those 24 hour things considering Jyrras's life at the moment.  By what Albiaon said the 'curse' is more like a warning of what's to come and the marking's a visual reminder.

in Jyrras's case immortality would not be much of a curse because he would still have his friends to help him out.  Dan is going through a similar phase at the moment and as the saying goes, "mysery loves company."



Just realised something intresting.
For a non adventurer Jyrras has faced as much danger as any adventurer.  He's been attacked by Fae, by Demon, by cubi, by a "screaming banshe hord," he has had a Gryphon ask him out on a date, he regurarly sees Pip and Wildy, he jumped off a cliff.

All and all he has survived those attacks and the random anctics of Dan, he has not only survived said events (and more) he's grown from them.

well, true enough, mind you, everybody feels misery, despair and regret at some stage of their life, Jy's been more prone to it in the past, so it's a no-brainer that it might happen again.

Or it might be a sick joke on Albanion's part, and with the exception of that nifty mark, all he's done with Jyrras, is really mess with his head. That way, there's actually no curse to be had, save for a curse of worrying about a curse.  >:3

Okay, after a bit of IM discussion with Tapewolf, i came up with the oddball idea that perhaps the curse was one of a 'cubi.. it kinda fits in what what Albanion mentioned, 'cuz Abel did mention (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_549.php) that most 'cubi hit that kind of emotional slump, and the mark Does look like a clan marking..

I wouldnt consider this strip to be the creepiest by a long shot.  I think that finding out that Dan/Alexi's mother and Wildy's sister are plotting genocide to take that by a long shot.

Still, its pretty much a nasty comic to be sure, due to the pointless nature of the cruelty.

Yeah, that was pretty horrifying.  This one is a bit more graphic in its layout though.

One thing which is missing for him to be a 'Cubi is wings.  However, it's an interesting point that this has happened so soon after Lorenda unexpectedly had a pair of wings bursting from her back.   :erk

I'm suspecting one of two things will happen:

1) Albanion's curse triggers in the next few strips, and Jyrras goes "What-- that's ALL?!?!"  Albanion has a good snicker at his expense.

2) Mabby does a Sleeping-Beauty-Style mollification spell to the effect of "This will be a dark hour for you, but it will end with great joy for you as well"

Either way Albanion's still in the doghouse for bein' mean to my Jy-fluff.

If he does grow backwings, Wildy's gonna be really jealous.  A cubified Jyrras would completely weird out the nascent friendship with Abel, but it would make things easier with the Lorenda deal.

Am I the only one who found that scene absolutely-freakin'-awesome? Of course, I'm really uncertain about whether or not I have any speculation to offer, but regardless I fawn over the flame and magic effects and the SHEER AWESOME that is Albanion. Somehow I can't bring myself to be mad at him for the fickleness of his grudge, but that'll probably come later, after I'm done riding the happy-high.

...wait, almost there...

The way it's described, it sounds like a GURPS curse. Jyrass'll be at a -1 to -3 penalty to all rolls until he would have accomplished something wonderful despite it, but then he'll FAIL MISERABLY anyway as the curse takes effect.

That or, yeah, it's a prediction and not a curse per se -- 'Wear these marks until you understand how horrible you made my wife feel'.

Haha, wait what?... Albanion and Nutmeg want to ask Mab to give them one of her parents souls to get a child, and their idea of this is to have her friends come to fae kingdom, and then curse one of them? Also hurting the feelings by not  :hug apparently weighs more than repeated back- :kruger with various weapons  :B
Well, since Albanion obviously seems to have his priorities straight turned upside down, clearly now the best course of action is to carefully plan ahead ... and then do the exact opposite!  :mwaha   
... Or maybe he will expect that? :mowdizzy

And to think that jy could be at his lab making things go boom this very instant  :)

But remember, Fae are immortal, until the decide to die.  Thus, stabbing people in the back with various weapons is more an expression of anger than anything more serious.  However, hugging is a sacred rite for the fae, and as such, denying a fae a hug is a serious offense, especially if the fae in question is Queen!  Frankly, Jyrras is lucky that this is all that he's going to go through.

As to what the marks are, possibly he's cursed Jyrras so that he cannot use/make the technology that he so loves!  This could be accomplished by searing pain whenever he handles it, or his hands simply refusing to touch it.  Possibility, anyone?

One is that 'Cubi seem to have one clanmark - it's not clear to me if Al has branded both wrists or just one.  If both, that kind of nixes the theory.  However there is a school of thought that the 'Cubi are a synthetic race - and if it was the Fae who created them, it's not unreasonable for them to be able to 'Cubify people.

Actually it doesn't say that Abanion destroyed the race of Mythos.  It says that Albanion caused the destruction of the race of Mythos.  Perhaps Albanion supplied the yo-yo and the Mythos race destroyed themselves debating who created the device.  That may sound weird, but what doesn't sound weird in the world of DMFA.

If this was Abel's Story, I'd be inclined to agree.

However - don't forget that Mab is Fae too.  Mab can prevent Nutmeg from getting the soul she wants so badly if Albanion steps out of line.  There's also Azlan - he might have something to say about Jyrras getting mistreated.  And Jy's mother is one of the top lawyers in all Furrae.

Well, I think that's exaggerating on Dan and Abel.  Alexsi is mainly scary when she's angry, and that's usually for a good reason.  Lorenda can eat you, doesn't mean she will.  Etc.

But your point stands - Wildy, Kria, Dark Pegasus, almost every 'cubi character other than Dan or maybe Abel... yeah, DMFA has a lot of people I'd rather not meet in a dark alley.  Or anywhere other than on the other side of a Hannibal Lecter-style cell with appropriate enchantments, for that matter.  Maybe.

there's plenty of plausibility in the theory, i don't see any actual marking per se on Jy's wrist in panel five, just residual sparklies, and Amber's subtle shading style. the actual pain is in Jy's left wrist, where the marking would be. Either theories have merit, and all things considered, Fae are capable of anything, and given that Jy's in their realm, they might be even moreso capable of anything they put their minds to. Still, it was an oddball theory, it could be a way for Amber to expedite her trip to "mun hell" by tormenting Jyrras in such a method.

Cubification makes my brain hurt... let alone this speculation.

verily, i did say beforehand that it was an oddball idea, the overall implausibility of it in any case, made me laugh. really i just put it forward like the proverbial Skeet, just to see it get shot down and fall to the earth in little pieces.  :P

sorry about injuring your thinkmeats, Amber, i was kinda hoping you'd get a kick out of the whole, ridiculous idea. Still, what's a forum without strange, ideas that come out of left field, grabbing people's attention, putting that seed into their minds, and when you finally reveal that twist, their reactions make it all the more worthwhile..  >:3

that's also an idea, on equal terms with mine, though.  >:3

it could be nothing, or it could be something that ends up with the last panel featuring Amber and Fluffy in grass skirts doing the "plot twist" dance.  :P

i'm pretty sure that whatever happens to Jyrras, will be completely different than what i could theorize. I have no wish to read Amber's mind... it's a weird mix of DMFA and the Beatles "Yellow submarine" in there.   :P

That's under the assumption that it's an effecty that is ongoing as an illusuion, or a spell holding the form.  A strong transformation spell may cause alterations that don't need an ongoing magical effect to maintain them, for all we know.

Curses, on the other hand, almost by definition, should need magic to sustain them, since they're an active reversal of fortune (unless they're Granny Weatherwax's curses :B )

I guess we'll just have to wait until Amber starts another donation counter so we can get a guide to magic like we have to cubi powers and fasion. :3

Very true, although under most guidelines, one can use magic to permanently Alter one's appearance by manipulating that individual's body in one fashion or another, a tad more gruesome than other methods, although, and more complicated.
As a curse, it could do any of the aforementioned, nothing at all, or something far more dark than what we usually give amber credit for..  :U

Is it just me, or could Jyrras shake the markings just by believing that they don't exist?  He is in the Fae world, after all.  Hell, he could make himself a Fae, Angel, or anything else that might have the ability to stand up against Albanion.  He could make himself a were and turn into a human, thereby canceling all the uber-Fae-magic around him and cause a massive cascade effect that destroys the entire Fae realm.

Seriously, Jyrras, fight back.  A couple mind exercises and he's on the defensive.

This has given me an AWESOME idea.  What if, in the fae realm, reality is what you believe it to be, but whoever has the stronger mind wins out?  So it could be a real battle of wits!  I'm remembering the final battle from Dark City, and that would be fun to see reenacted with Jyrras and Albanion.

Or what if he just imagines all the horrible stuff that could happen, and it comes true because he's so scared? Would that kind of curse even follow out of the Fae world, or just leave pretty tatooes in their wake? Hmmm...

Or what if he only imagined that the whole ordeal happened because he inwardly knew that there would be repurcussions for not hugging the Queen of the Fae?
