I like the idea of summoning patrons like Pokemon

Thank you so much for sharing lol

Extra hilarious because, IIRC, the previous comic was about having a patron that just wanted to bone you, except you're gay so it's a chore.

Poor C'tun Aket, it's not their fault they were born ugly. Warlocks always ask them "Where's my spell slot?", but nobody asks them "we'll bang, okay?"

Hey, C’tun Aket is not ugly! There’s someone out there who would. So hard

That's rude to turn down your patron like that.

I mean I'm assuming a powerful enough Patron would easily be able to shapechange into whatever form they want. So if they're offering...

So much of our real-world sexual behavior presupposes the fact that one's physical form is difficult or impossible to change that it's easy to forget that in a fantasy setting with transformation (or even just illusion) magic only personality would matter. Everything else can be fixed by Alter Self.

(I expect that if wizards are fantasy nerds, they don't have the same problem of an unbalanced male:female ratio that real-world nerds do. Or maybe they would have the ratio just as unbalanced but in the other direction, with almost everyone being a Drow femme fatale.)

Even if the male:female ratio is off you'll just have to get together with one of your bros and flip a coin to decide who's changing this time.

That's what I meant, except that I think they'd both shape-shift.

That's a refreshing optimistic take. My inner cynic says that wizards would just compete to see who could spellcraft up themselves the biggest schlong

Choose your patrons wisely.

Yeah, I'd be so pissed if I had the eldritch patron after seeing that

I mean, it's probably NOT fun. In fact I would hazard a guess that it is decidedly Slaaneshian

That last exchange has been burned into my memory since I first saw this.
