Ah. I stand corrected. I was only looking at strips he actually was in; I forgot about the "stuff-about-people-we-don't-know-papers".

...
In the conversation that follows comes the remark that THunt is impressed by the name guessing of the Goblinites.

Well, noone of all of us did guess Grinnorarcen....

It needs to be pointed out that there's at least one Axe of Prissan in the Maze.
Therefore the demon trapped it it is not unique across the multiverse, but each reality likely has one.
Therefore it is highly probable that ALL demons are unique only in their own reality (which includes both the Prime Material and Hell), but have analogues in others.
Therefore it is highly likely that Grinnorarcen and NotWalter 156 are merely analogues, and NotWalter's truename may well NOT be Grinnorarcen.
This could lead to a very amusing congrontation between FMK or a subset of same and NotWalter some time after they leave the Maze.

I am waiting for that.
But Herbert, the GM of FM , should know they met an alternative Not-Walter and not use the name in the reality, when he uses Not_Walter as a messenger again.

If there 156 different "Kins, Forgaths, and Minmaxs" (as well as the other characters not present in the maze, but have been referenced too in the story such as the bartender, Goblinslayer, the members of the goblin warcamp etc.) why would it be probable at all that demons are unique to their own reality?

You misunderstand, he agrees.

The name of the DrowBabe was Tryst Drow'Den though it never came up in the comic.

"The character known to many readers as simply ÔÇ£Drow BabeÔÇØ was written with a name. Around the time of introduction, I was to add her name into the story by having one of the other characters mention it casually, however, I forgot. And before I knew it, enough time had passed in the storyline that if I had introduced her name, it would have changed the whole pace of the story as readers would be raising an eyebrow and saying ÔÇ£Oh, THATÔÇÖs her name?ÔÇØ. It would have been sort of ÔÇÿout of rhythmÔÇÖ. So anyways, her name was Tryst DrowÔÇÖden. Now you know."

Thanks. I just updated the transcriptions thread reflecting this.
Do you still remember where you picked this up?
Google turned up nothing... :(

Edit:
Searching site:goblinscomic.com or site:twitter.com turned up nothing.
But generally searching the quote did bring up something: http://goblinscomic.wikia.com/wiki/Drowbabe

Well, I found this particular information good, since now we know that the three Kins also passed the Healing Potion river.
Before, we could not be sure if any other team passed the river at all, with the large fall and all.

it seems likely, they came from the same direction as our group in the corridor.

Or, perhaps there is more than one river of healing potion in the maze? It might be a feature of the MoM -- wipe out all the wimps in the first half of the maze, then heal everyone up to full again (various rivers and/or other healing mechanisms offered) for the big climactic battle in the tower room...

It's in Goblins Book One as a bonus. I scored the PDF on Free Comic Day I didn't even know Goblins had a wiki. Neat

[Krulle]

I figured that out, as the Wikia-page for Drowbabe also refers to book 1 as source....
Thanks for confirming it, though.

We think that MM sees Kin.
Kin insists she doesn't love MM: http://www.goblinscomic.com/01102012/

She could agree to join the other Kins and stay in the maze with while her Forgath & MM leave it.

Knowing Herbert, he totally would. And pull that ancient joke on them again.
