Graveyard Greg

There's a saying in the Guild:  Never trust a bald-headed geek. And this man proves it right. Again, a writer of comics not the actual cartoonist, but we're beginning to think more flexibly about the rules because, hey, Graveyard Greg is EVIL!


Let us look at the evidence. Firstly GG (as he will henceforth be known) is a master of the plot twist, hurling revelations and twisted moments at us faster than Vampire  players role for initiative. Check out the disco contest between EDG and the Russian contender, or EDG's use of nanites during said contest. GG is also willing to add devious twists to such a technique, as seen brilliantly in the strip when EDG has to choose whether to break his programming to save Greg, or not.

Mr G (as he will be politely known) is also a rare practitioner of that forbidden art - Multiple Rapid Character Death (MRCD). Witness how Rapide, his violent-female-with-superpowers-and-spandex character was brutally decapitated by Greg during a werewolf moment, only to be brought back in time to save Greg and EDG from the destruction of the Outpost, only to then appear to die again in the explosion - along with Greg and EDG! Truly the phrase 'You bastard!' springs to mind when describing such cleverness.

Good Ol' GG (as he will never be known, unless some of the Guild get drunk and pally) is also an expert at putting characters through situations beyond their tolerance and endurance. So EDG is forced to resort to disco and fall in love, Greg has to live with sidekicks who despise him, and Randarch...well, I think being Randarch is punishment enough!

Finally, our surveillance reports suggest that GG is also a GM/DM/Storyteller, and anyone who's ever RPG'd will know that such a role automatically makes you evil! You don't believe me, go wander through Robworld for a while, and once you've stopped shaking, come back and try to argue that I'm not right.

Plus GG also threw in a cameo from the Penny Arcade characters, who are just evil in their own right.
