Oh dear. Is that 2 people dead then? Or even more? What's the leveling curve look like for ghoul clerics?

Additional comments:
1)Xzaclock is very much unlike "Cryoarmada," so it would seem Infinite's pandemonium spirit either perished with him or was unbound, whichever happens, but probably isn't reborn as a ghoul. According to the paladin, the new driver was once some sort of wandering spirit.
2) Is there another ghoul or other entity around? Xzaclock says "gave US life," but doesn't use the royal plural in the very next sentence, saying "I." That said, "haveth" is doubly wrong by the rules of old-timey English (should be "hath" and doesn't agree with the subject's first-person), so perhaps ghouls just don't care as much about syntax as they care about murder.
3) Those clothes are new. Where'd he get them?
4) I really hope the paladin isn't dead... but her vision and status as Xzaclock's first mission bode very, very ill.

Are ghouls inhabited by PNJs of the game which Tobi comes from ?
Is that what they want, to maintain the word interesting, aka playable ?
They think they are into a videogame/rpg ?
The ghouls that took Tobi to the game also had classes, if I recall correctly

I wonder, did her really literally haveth too?
Also, Clerics are supports you got this gang!

I wonder how he leveled up!

How does it work, though? Do they choose their class? Is it random?
45411: Silver - Saturday, January 11 2025 - 6:33 AM
Oh jeez where'd he get levels?

Nice to meet you, Xzalclock!

@Cellphone
We haven't actually confirmed if ghouls level purely off kills, or if it has to be related to their quests. They're known as murder machines, but they can still wander the streets of Lorg without causing mass panic, just "don't interact with them at all", so I believe it's closer to the latter.

So, that "level 3" is very worrying if I understood how Ghouls work correctly.
We have one (semi)-confirmed kill, which is the Smile Co. Scientist Lady. Re-reading Shalia's interaction with this ghoul, that kill alone means that Xzalclock has unlocked powers beyond the baseline Ghouls super-strength.
Of the game's partecipants, the only ones we haven't seen in the maze yet are Housten and Maria. If they ran into Xzalclock, well, they wouldn't have had much of a chance... Maria probably wouldn't have fared very well in the maze on her own anyways...

It seems that Smile had some "tutorial zone prepared" and infinighoul managed to survive it.
Nice by them, really, letting him skip the early grind somehow.
Also, dunno how this world works, but not always kills==xp, I imagine infi solved a bunch of quests, if Smile has questgivers ofc. Maybe he chose the correct dialogue options.

I wonder if undead cleric can turn undead himself.

Rootin' for Foxy real hard.
Xzal is gonna be pissed at her for getting kicked off the train.
45419: tension - Saturday, January 11 2025 - 7:28 PM
will we see some class abilities? so far these classes are as real as they might be just delusions from the ghouls.
thou i do feel all a class does is give themed clothes to a ghoul.

It would be funny if in a world with magic ghouls were roleplaying, casting spells only in their heads...

@Seiko: Undead clerics can, of course: "Turn living".

@Paintr - Clerics are NOT just supports, in some systems. D&D Clerics will END you.
