* NightmareFetishist: Morana, priestess of the death goddess Sabal in the town of Saung (and [[http://courtofroses.spiderforest.com/?comic_id=170 former jester]]), is lively and upbeat despite her grim surroundings, and [[http://courtofroses.spiderforest.com/?comic_id=168 loves making corny death jokes]]. It is indicated that most clergy of Sabal are actually [[http://courtofroses.spiderforest.com/?comic_id=164 fairly grim]], so Morana is a bit atypical in this. The main cast's reaction is mostly disturbed by her flippant regard for the macabre.

''Court of Roses'' is an original fantasy webcomic written and drawn by Kelsey Peterson, otherwise known as Nintendonut1.

It follows a ragtag group of bards as they band together and travel the realm of Prismal; Merlow the Rose, half-elf, charismatic leader, bagpiper, and perpetual drunk; Diana the Fleetfoot Fletcher, human tidinit player with a heart of gold; Nocturne, brooding but classy Infernal and violinist; Sven Rockscreamer, goliath drummer and seeker of justice; and Feliks Halfdance, curious gnome who plays accordion and magically conjures their entire backup.

And who knows! Mayhaps they'll solve a murder mystery together!
