However, considering certain restrictions, she was probably scouted by Cedric when Lee needed a hand.

Indeed. Lee couldn't just wander around the Abyss looking for demons to recruit; he'd be destroyed in short order.

on the sabine bit, I know a couple of people who clean when their angry to work off the frustration. Granted they both have borderline OCD, but still.

On the orcs: look at what they're wearing.
Those are some of the tribal Banjo-worshippers from Don't Split the Party. That's how backed up Lee's inbox is.

I'm not sure that Tarquin will commit himself or another serious name boss villain to this fight. That invokes a whole bunch of other tropes. It'd make things a bit chancy, and raise the stakes.

Tarquin's annoyed face at the bard song amuses me.
Tons of soldiers are falling into the pile, so I assume if Nale is in that pile he must be buried already.
Also, Sabine was cheering for V. Priorities, eh?
On Orcs and Ogres, Ogres are also a race of Giants, where Orcs are a race of Goblinoids.

It probably helps that Sabine rather likes V.

20 minutes is a very long time when shit is hitting the fan.

True dat.
So, there seems to be some indication that V will remember, but that doesn't seem smart. It wouldn't do them any good if he could tell the Order something like that before hand...
Then again, both Belkar and Durkula show that Roy can't really afford to be picky at this point. So even if he does remember his time in hell, it may simply not matter. At worst, they'll be aware that he will be plucked out of their hands at a vital moment, but not be able to do anything about it. If he does tell them and their forced to leave him behind, then they are down a Wizard when they may not have the time to spare to get a new one.
What do you guys think: remember or not remember?

Random thought- I wonder if Team Tarquin has a Token Good Teammate (not counting Kilkil). I doubt it, but maybe that Barbarian guy with a club?- we haven't seen him around recently.
Its kind of a moot point in that either way, he can still tell the team about the Familicide and the fact the Fiends can randomly seize him (even if he doesn't remember it happening).

Bear in mind everything since they discovered Girard's pyramid has happened within the same day. Maybe the last 80 strips?

Not only is talking a free action, but everything between Team Evil teleporting out and the Sand Elemental poofing away took less than three minutes.
And everything since the destruction of the Gate has taken 20 minutes.

@ Tarquin's teammates: I doubt any of them are good, but one could easily be Lawful Neutral.

I like Thog because he's childish and worries about Nale getting stuck in a witch's forest. He has an innocent mind and is a child at heart. With good people telling him what to do, Thog would be good.

Yea. he's kind of like a stupid version of belkar pointed in the opposite direction.

No. Thog likes hurting people. He's made that clear on many occasions. He is malicious, sadistic, and narcissistic. Besides, one could just as easily say that Nale could have been Good had he been raised differently. Or Tarquin. Or Xykon.
Thog doesn't get a pass on moral responsibility just because he has a low Int score, any more than Belkar's low Wis gets him a free ride.

He would be good if people told him to be good, he'd just be a very violent good person.
...are you allowed to be a sadist/be very violent and still be on the good spectrum?
Read my stories!
Lost in Space
Not really. Or at least, you'd be flirting with Neutral on a constant basis. A person who is needlessly violent and/or enjoys hurting people would not be at home in a Good alignment without a genuine intent to reform.

She basically works for Cedric, but takes orders from the other two because he's told her to, I imagine
