    We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas! This comic follows on from the [Previous comic](https://ttrpg.network/post/22550196) which will almost certainly provide context. You can follow this comic series from the start [Here](https://comicpress.socksandpuppets.com/character/konsi/). Make sure to start at the bottom (oldest comic) and work upwards.

              Exposition's really difficult in comic format. People don't really want to read a full page of text when they're reading comics, so you got to find some ways to at least give it some visual flair...

                        Is Moradin's hammer an artifact, could that be used for magical shenanigans inside the anti-magic field?

                          If Konsi is thinking what I'm thinking, this might be like a "if you get every answer wrong on the test you get an A, since you obviously know what you're doing" thing.

                            It is an artifact, the "Forgeringer". Some artifacts *might* be powerful enough to have function inside anti-magic fields... although the Forgeringer has never displayed that kind of power. More problematic though, it'd be kind of difficult to use a hammer in the middle of a poker match undetected.

                              OotS has SO much text per strip, I could really do a lot with that kind of real estate.

                                You'd probably be able to do that and win the match, but, well, there's a few problems... First of all, Addis is a Tymoran priestess with level 5 spells, so she'd be pretty difficult to take down quickly unless you were serious adventurers. Chances of pulling it off without a hitch are non-zero. We don't know for sure what is and is not on Addis' spell list, but if we imagine it's similar to Konsi's list well... Konsi always has *Dimension Door* prepared, grabbing her would be very difficult. Secondly, this is Konsi's boss, you might win the match by default, but the repercussions within the temple would be much worse. Third, Konsi would never approve of kidnapping anyone who wasn't evil... She's too much of a good bean. --- Probably the biggest problem is that the entire *point* of this match is to have Konsi play a high-stakes poker match under scrutiny, to prove that she legitimately has skill at the game, and doesn't cheat. They're staging this whole thing to head off accusations of foul play... Kidnapping your opponent and winning by default doesn't exactly solve the problem!

                                      I don't know what you mean. Winning poker via the use of a hammer is a long honored dwarves tradition.

                                        I know that it would be out of character, but now I'm trying to make up a plan how this might work. If Mystery can counterspell, then if you send him along while disguised as someone else, it might be possible. However, as you've said, it would not really accomplish much anyway and Konsi would never do it.
