 Lint (Webcomic)
comment
LinT is a long-running comedic fantasy webcomic drawn and written by Colby Purcell.The story is a humorous take on the fantasy genre, focusing on the off the wall adventures of Sangwine, an exiled elven prince, and his somewhat dysfunctional group of companions on a quest to free the kingdom of Schloeffelonia from Sangwine's evil brother - Fang, Overlord of Darkness.The comic began as a light-hearted comedy based story but eventually developed to have a more dramatic and plot-driven storyline, with the occasional throw-back to earlier wacky-style humour.LinT was completed in January 2010. Purcell has since launched and finished a new comic, Pygmalion in Space, as well as the aptly named sequel to LinT, Lintier.

Damsel in Distress: Bactine is simply outraged to find herself in this position towards the end of the comic and with a little help from a surprising source manages to subvert it by breaking out on her own to go rescue Sangwine in his final showdown.

Long-Lost Relative: Several characters suggest Xylic could be related to Sangwine in some way. Most fans agree that he is probably the son of Sangwine's aunt Ellinya. They're right.

Important Haircut: After murdering a man in a tavern, Fang goes to the "ultimate extreme" for an elf and chops off his own hair. Al?bert is also rather unhappy about getting one of these when Fang throws him in prison.

An unfortunate side effect of this is that any healer working to heal this mystic damage has to Cast from Hit Points and almost always ends up dead as a result.

I Want My Beloved to Be Happy
 Lint (Webcomic) / int_60547993
comment
I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Xylic never tells Bactine how he really feels about her, presumably because he sees how she and Sangwine are in love (even if they don't realize it) and doesn't want to complicate things for Bactine (who thinks of him as a brother).

Black Magic: Zedwig is constantly on the verge of death (and burning through healers at a deadly rate) due to his overuse of destructive magic under Fang's control. An unfortunate side effect of this is that any healer working to heal this mystic damage has to Cast from Hit Points and almost always ends up dead as a result.

Ape Shall Never Kill Ape
 Lint (Webcomic) / int_c4835ce7
comment
Ape Shall Never Kill Ape: Most of the elves have to get pushed pretty far before they will even consider violence against their own kind. In fact, Fang's murder of the human gambler in the bar is the first murder in the elven kingdom that anyone can remember. Zedwig seems especially traumatized by all the killing of other elves (as opposed to any humans) Fang has forced him to do.

Freudian Excuse: Fang would have you believe that his mother's death in childbirth with Sangwine and their father's admiration for this younger son as he grew up justified/made-necessary his decision to become an Evil Prince and his hatred for his brother.

comment
Cerebus Syndrome: Gradual, but after the completion of the MD-CM Quest, the humorous tongue-in-cheek tone of many early comics had pretty much disappeared in favor of Character Development and the unfolding (back)story of Sangwine and his lost kingdom. Most noticeable perhaps in the transition of Xylic from the Cloudcuckoolander thief with a sock fetish to a withdrawn and sometimes downright sullen master archer (who occasionally picks locks).
