| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Kel ponders the pain involved in centaur sex, and realises that the air is getting chillier | [[Kel adresses the goddess Epona.]]
/ Kel: Say, are you a goddess? I need a god to help me get home.
/ Epona: Not now, lassie. / [[Kel walks away as Archibald mounts Epona.]]
/ Kel [[thinks]]: That - on the other hand- looks just painful. / [[The sky darkens. Kel, who is still naked, hugs herself. Archibald and Epona look up.]]
/ Epona: Oh dear! Is that th'time?
/ Archibald: The Contest! / [[A hand appears from the door of a hovel as Kel walks by. In the background, a nymph flees the gathering thunderstorm.]]
/ Kel [[thinks]]: It's getting chilly... / [[The hand pulls Kel into the hovel.]]
/ Kel: Whaaaa! / [[The person grabbing Kel is revealed to be Pan. Kel struggles to get away from him.]]
/ Kel: You! You... let me go! / [[Kel pushes Pan away.]]
/ Kel: How often do I have to tell you I'm not some nymph you can grab and ravish at will?
/ Pan: It's not what you think... / [[Pan points out of a window.]]
/ Pan: Have you looked at the sky? It's not safe out there.
/ Kel: Thunder clouds? / Pan: There's a thundering contest. You'd better stay inside with me.
/ Kel: How convenient.
/ Pan: Well, it is kind of romantic... and I do have wine... / {{ROCR art by Reinder. The Pantheon art by Timmerryn.}} http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060801 |
| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Just what Satan needs: an encounter with the local soldiery. Enter Scarabus.. | Guðrún: So do you know how to make the magic towel send you home again?
/ Satan: I'll figure it out. And I'm sure you have better things to do... / Guðrún: Yes, I believe I do. Good luck then, Satan.
/ Satan: Thanks. / [[Satan sits on his log, as Scarabus approaches in the distance.]]

| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Last time Scarabus found something in the shrubbery, it was a nude woman. Scarabus could be in luck again! | [[Scarabus looks into the shrubberies.]]
/ Scarabus: Scarabus spies with Scarabus' little eye... something! / [[Scarabus crouches down to investigate.]]

Oh happy day! Just as the nights were getting chilly! / [[Satan looks on as Scarabus hugs the towel.]]
/ Scarabus: Mmm... lovely blanketty blanket!
/ Satan: ?! / Satan: Er... raven...
/ Leroukh: Yes, serpent? / Satan: ...Am I going mad, or did a bipedal talking aardvark dressed like a knight from the Crusades just steal my towel to use as a blanket?
/ Leroukh: Uh... the latter, I think. / [[In the background, Scarabus hops and skips with glee.]]
/ Leroukh: This happened to me once with a piece of cheese.
/ Satan: GGGrrrRRRR!! / {{ROCR art by Reinder. The Pantheon art by Timmerryn.}} http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060803 |
| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Thor is quite popular among the fat nymphs in horned helmets... | [[Kel and pan watch as Hermes the Fleet-footed provides a running commentary.]]

/ Kel: Quite a fanclub!
/ Pan: Bah. Fat nymphs in horned helmets. / [[Hermes introduces the Finnish god Ukko, who is dressed in nothing but a green towel. He is cheered by Moomins.]]
/ Hermes: And on my left - he's just come out of his sauna - UKKO!
/ Moomins: EEEEEEEEE! / Kel: That's the towel I fought with Satan over!
/ Pan: What? http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060804 |
| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Okay, enough of all that Kel nakedness for now. Kel gets a dress. | [[Kel takes a sip of her wine, while the thundering contest goes on on the distant-vision screen.]]
/ Pan: Impossible! He's had it for years! / Pan: There was this girl who gave it to him. She was lost, just like you. / [[Kel hugs herself again. Satan bends down to pick something up.]]
/ Kel: It's getting really chilly!
/ Pan: Wait! She brought some clothes as well! / [[Pan hands Kel a flower dress. Hermes provides running commentary on the thundering contest on the distant-vision screen.]]

| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: The thundering contest ends with a thunderous applause and some blistering sports commentary. | [[Hermes provides running commentary to the Thundering Contest on the distant-vision screen. Kel and Pan watch.]]

| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Kel recognises the place she has been transported to. | [[Kel stands up straight, holding the towel, looking around and blinking. There are two boxes full of penguins beside her.]]
/ Kel: I know this place... / [[Kel-from-the-past shouts from off-panel.]]
/ Kel-from-the-past: The towel! Follow that...
/ Kel: Yie! / [[Kel runs off, followed by Kel-from-the-past, Dylan-from-the-past, and Diane-from-the-past.]]
/ Kel-from-the-past: Girl!
/ Dylan-from-the-past: ! / [[Kel-from-the-past sits on Kel's prone body, holding up the towel.]]

/ Satan: And now I'm back, it looks like that spell's stopped working because I have my full divinity again.... / Satan: And I have... the... / Satan: Kel, where's the towel?
/ Kel: Last I saw it, our previous selves were fighting over it. Then they vanished. / Satan: By the virgin arse of Jesus! The aardvark still has it!
/ Kel: Aardvark? You don't mean Scarabus the earthy-pig? / Satan: Little twit with a sword, needs a bath?
/ Kel: That's him.
/ Satan [[thinks]]: The Towel's still in Kel's world!
/ Kel: The Towel is in my world! / [[Satan snaps his fingers to transport himself to Clwyd-Rhan, but Kel pounces on him.]]

/ < http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060815 |
| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Guðrún and her lady in waiting discuss the fate of the Towel. | [[At Guðrún's castle, Guðrún's handmaiden has a question.]]
/ Handmaiden: Did you sort out the demon, Milady?
/ Guðrún: Yes. Now his magic has left this world, he'll have no reason to return. / Handmaiden: Forgive me, Milady... last time I looked into your Crystal, the Earth-pig had the magic towel...
/ Guðrún: He has it no longer. This Satan isn't the only interdimensional traveller we've had here, you know. / Handmaiden: Milady, please don't speak in riddles...
/ Guðrún: Oh, it's simple! I merely provided another gentleman from elsewhere with the funds to acquire the towel and a little excess to keep the Earth-Pig quiet. / Handmaiden: Another man from elsewhere? What was he like?
/ Guðrún: Oh, quite nondescript. But very keen to acquire a towel for some reason... / Guðrún: I think he said his name was Ford Prefect. / {{ROCR art by Reinder. The Pantheon art by Timmerryn. Spliced together from previously-used art by Timmerryn as I was exhausted at the time...}} http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060816 |
| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Satan and Kel make things up with one another in the nearest alehouse. | [[Satan and Kel sit at a table in the pub, brooding.]]
/ Satan: So he sold it to a man in the pub. I don't think this towel wants to be found.
/ Kel: Neither do I. But the game must go on... apparently. / Satan: Let me buy you a drink first.
/ Kel: Thanks. / Kel: I think you may find your boyfriend in an odd mood when you get home. You see, I may have given him the impression...
/ Satan: Oh, that's nothing. We'll sort it. We usually do. / Satan: You might find a rather bad-tempered tree faerie stomping around your forest complaining about Gnomes' feet...
/ Kel: That's nothing either. She does that all the time. / Satan: Well then...
/ Kel: Guess it's time to press on. / Satan: A toast first. To victory!
/ Kel: To victory! May the best win! / [[Kel and Satan knock their mugs of ale together in a toast.]]
/ Satan: Amen to that.

| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: A portrait of everyone involved in Even in Arcadia, except, for some reason, Wythllew. Has gabbly stuff. | [[Group portrait of the cast of Even in Arcadia.]]
/ {{ Back in 2002, when we were working on Even in Arcadia, Timmerryn and I decided that it would be fun to have a group portrait of the entire cast of the storyline. I drew a rough sketch of where everyone should go. Timmerryn drew his characters in the appropriate positions... and then I sat on his art for four years. While we were working on the final episodes, fatigue had set in, and I couldn't bring myself to go back to the project after the story was finished and add my art. / Four years later, the re-serialisation of Even in Arcadia on my own website at least motivated me to go back to the cast portrait, just to have something to post on the site on a Friday. I don't like starting a new storyline on a Friday. I still got the heebie-jeebies whenever I considered drawing my own characters only and splicing them together with Timm's art the way we did the story itself, so using Timm's art as a guide, I drew the full portrait from scratch. So here it is, four years late and one Wythllew short (presumably she refused to pose).}} http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060818 |
| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Always travel with a banana on you. | [[The three nymphs Ianassa, Thetis and Echo lounge at their spot by the river. Echo is peeling a banana.]]
/ Ianassa: Zeus once seduced me in the shape of a vase of daisies... / Thetis: You know, I"ve always wondered how that works.
/ Ianassa: Easy! I wanted some flowers for my hair, and pop! There he was! / [[Echo eats the banana.]]
/ Thetis: Hmmm... he came to me as a pearl necklace, just when I wanted one.
/ Ianassa: See? He senses what you want... / Ianassa: ...and that's the shape he takes.
/ Thetis: Hey, Echo, you ever had a visit from Zeus, or what? / [[Echo licks her fingers while holding up the banana peel.]]

| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Satyrs on the prowl... but they're out of luck today. | {{I wrote and drew this on a whim after finding yesterday's comic on my hard drive. I just like working with the world of The Pantheon...}} / [[The Satyrs Philoctetes and Praxiletes lie in the Arcadian grass, bored.]]
/ Philoctetes: I'm bored!
/ Praxiletes: Let's start a webcomic! / Philoctetes: What?
/ Praxiletes: OK, scrap that. Let's go spy on the nymphs! / Philoctetes: Don't they have Fridays off from their ravishing schedule?
/ Praxiletes: Yeah! So now we can find out what they do on their own! / Philoctetes: Huh?
/ Praxiletes: You know... just the girls... by themselves... alone... / Philoctetes: Ahhh! Oh! I see!
/ Praxiletes: Ssh! There they are! / [[The satyrs are disappointed to find the nymphs Ianassa and Thetis involved in an innocent game of Pat-a-Cake, with Echo singing along.]]
/ Ianassa/Thetis/Echo: Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, baker's man, bake me a cake as fast as you can. Roll it and pat it and mark it with "B" and put it in the oven for baby and me! http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060822 |
| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Jesus finds a wallet in Arcadia. How can that be? | {{In fact, I enjoyed working in The Pantheon's setting so much, I made an unsollicited guest strip which took Timmerryn a while to find a time slot for. This is from late in 2004... I think. Might have been 2003.}} / [[Jesus spots something in the Arcadian grass.]]
/ Jesus [[thinks]]: Hey, what's that? A wallet? / Jesus [[thinks]]: I shouldn't be interested in material thinks, but... how did this get here? / Jesus [[thinks]]: No one here ever needs a wallet. ...Shakespeare? Nah. / Jesus [[thinks]]: It's a mystery wrapped in an enigma... or at least in snakeskin leather. If I pick it up, I can find out who it belongs to. That would be good. / [[Jesus moves to pick up the wallet.]]
/ Jesus [[thinks]]: Let's do some good. / [[From off-panel, the trickster God Anansi pulls the wallet away from Jesus, by means of a cunningly attached string. The trickster God Coyote speaks off-panel.]]
/ Coyote: HAHAHA! Fooled you, big nose! / [[Jesus angrily addresses Coyote, who is teaching a class of young satyrs and nymphs.]]
/ Jesus: OY! Stupid trickster gods! Knock it off!
/ Coyote: And that, children, is how you do the classic wallet prank. Practice it well. Tomorrow, Anansi and I will demonstrate the bucket-over-the-door prank. http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060823 |

/ Tamlin: Thanks, ma'am. / [[The old lady walks off.]]
/ Old Lady: It's All Hallow's Eve! Now that your business is done, stay inside, lest the DEVIL catches you and drags you down to Hell!

/ Kel: Sorry... / [[Tamlin, Ragnarok and Jake eye Kel.]]
/ Tamlin/Ragnarok/Jake: Hmmmmm.... http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060905 |
| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: The Rogues immediately start carrying out their plan,which involves Kel removing her clothing again. But that's what you do for art, isn't it?.. | [[At their headquarters, the Rogues carry out their plan. Jake is painting Kel's body red while Atra is working on her hair. Tamlin is braiding a tail and Ragnarok is sewing up fur to put on her legs.]]
/ Kel: ...But why me?
/ Tamlin: Because the rest of us are already earning our keep.
/ Ragnarok: This way you can scare people without using weapons maybe. Well, you get a pitchfork. / Kel: ...And does my chest really need a dozen layers of paint?
/ Jake: Of course! It's the only way to get the texture right. / [[Tamlin, Kel and Ragnarok are walking towards a house in the forest. From inside the house, the voice of the Witch from Barnardus' gang is audible.]]
/ Tamlin: Try if you can scare the people in that hovel. Good luck!
/ Witch: I don't know. Maybe I've misspelled "Tetragrammaton" again. / [[Inside the house, Barnardus is arguing with the witch. The caveman is with them.]]
/ Barnardus: Look, you've tried three times, on the best possible day for it. It's not working.
/ Witch: One more try, okay? / [[The witch raises her hands to the heavens and intones a chant.]]
/ Witch: Eeeeiiiidoloonnn! Fiend from hell, obey! / Someone knocks at the door.
/ < http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060906 |
| Webcomic Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan: Kel appears to have been expected, and the crowd inside don't think much of her manners for some reason... | [[Kel stands in the doorway in her devil outfit. The witch gloats off-panel.]]
/ Witch: Yes! I did it! Muahaha!
/ Kel: ? / Witch: ...But I expected better manners! You're supposed to appear inside the circle, foul fiend! / [[Barnardus looks Kel up and down.]]
/ Barnardus: I didn't know devils were that scrawny!
/ Kel: Hey!
/ Barnardus: ...or that smelly!
/ Kel: Oi!
/ Witch: The food in hell can't be very good. Now, shall we get on with it? / Barnardus: Foul-smelling fiend...
/ Kel [[thinks]] Ohmygods! It's Barnardys Pothelmus!
/ Barnardus: How can we rid ourselves of Tamlin's gang? / Kel: Ooh, er, that's easy. You can summon them with one magic word...
/ Barnardus: Do tell... / Kel: It goes like this: HELP! / [[Outside, Ragnarok, Tamlin and Jake are spying on the house.]]

/ SFX: BAFF! / [[Tamlin's gang have won the fight. Tamlin is twisting Barnardus' arm. Jake is threatening the witch with his axe. Kel jumps into Ragnarok's arms.]]
/ Tamlin: Muahaha! Quick, take their stuff and torch the place! / [[Tamlin, Ragnarok, Jake and Kel walk out of the burning house, wearing items of clothing stolen from Barnardus' gang.]]
/ Tamlin: Well done, Kel! Now Barnardus won't bother us for a while! / [[From the tops of the trees, three demons watch Tamlin, Ragnarok, Jake and Kel, and the burning house.]]
/ Tamlin: And to think that old lady told us to stay indoors!
/ 1. Demon: That's the house we were summoned to.
/ 2. Demon: Whatever it was for, we're late. They should have picked a less busy day.
/ 3. Demon: C'mon, let's grab those humans and go home! http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20060908 |
