Yes, thank you. I’m going to have to start opening the image full-sized to read it. Probably should have been doing that all along. This weekend I’ll to go back and re-read them all that way.
A Lichtenberg figure is a kind of scarring you get when struck by lightning like she has been, it looks really cool but probably very painful to acquire. I think you can also put it on wood if you run electricity through it but don’t quote me on that. I don’t know how being metallic would affect being struck by lightning or even if she has metal in her or it’s just like a camouflage thing
Metal Lady: FALCON PUNCH
Falst: I was about to fight this dragon solo and show off my moves when this lady comes out of nowhere and beats my opponent with sheer force … This must be what Erin feels like.
Erin (distantly): Sucks, doesn’t it?
Flying on a burst of lightning right into the dragon’s face, punching it creating a wonderful scene of lightning and water interplay, then celebrating having punched yet another dragon in the face. I think this is the best entrance of any character so far.
She seems to be helping those Ignans out of her own goodwill and has been shown to travel far, my money is on her being an adventurer, doing heroic deeds and fighting monsters as she travels the world.
Now, why did Falst duck under the water then? Is he wary of buff lightning lady being a threat? Did he see something behind her, maybe this is a whole nest of Burrower Wyrms? Did he get a “love at first sight” crush on Tess and doesn’t want to embarrass himself?
Okay guys, I’ve been doing some thinking. I think this is the grey person in the trope talks sketch. Overall they’ve appeared in 32 (I think, I might have miscounted) panels and in that fought two dragons, killed one, saved Falst and traveled the same distance by coincidence, unless their following the floof gang. In the trope talk sketch the grey person also had a cloak with the same knot at the front, details, and the majority of their appearances have not been with the protagonists, so their must be some importance to them. Plus there are some sketches that are very similar to them. I predict Protagonism.
She has a cape – what do you think the chances are she loses it for some reason? Alinua, Erin, and Falst have all had capes that subsequently disappeared….
Is this the person everyone’s been calling Tess? Also really excited to find out what her deal is, for instance, why is she made of gold? And why gold of all things?
Hehehehehe. I wish I could heart comments or something. But um, I think Tess is part of a race of element adapted people. They have an official name but I can’t remember it off the top of my head at the moment.
Metal Lady has arrived!
Wonder what’s she’s up to out here? That’s the second time she’s punched a dragon in her 2 major appearances (Windcrest does not count)
Alright, classic 5 man band format
Kendal: Leader
Alinua: Heart
Falst: Lancer
Erin: Smart guy
What does that leave us? The big guy. Who did we just meet again? A metal lady who beat in one hit a dragon that Falst was having issues with.
Conclusion: We found our 5th party member.
Water – tbd
Wind – bright wings dude
Stone – tbd
Fire – tbd
Lightning – Red’s Thor self-insert
Life – Alinua
Dark Dragon – Erin
oh yeah it’s all coming together
In one page she knocks out the monster; apologizes for stealing Falst’s thunder; explains her actions briefly; checks in when she doesn’t get a response. I love her already.
With all due respect to Red, I don’t think that’s 2-0. Tess’ fight with the light dragon was a draw at best; it ended with Tess prone, on her face, after being headbutted into the ground, and then the light dragon left to warn the paladins about the void dragon. After the fight with Tynan, I think we can call Tess 2-0-1.
Aha, Big Guy sighted (I have a feeling it’s this one and not the god with the paladins who are on their way).
– Leader: Kendal. Everyone except *maybe* Erin would agree.
– Heart: Alinua. She’s the most emotionally proactive, although there’s a surprisingly high level of emotional competence all round considering the party’s various traumas.
– Smart Guy: no-one will take this away from Erin without fighting The Void first.
– Big Guy: this new arrival has spent 100% of their screen time so far *punching dragons*, and the next best fit is Life.
– Lancer: I suppose Felst, being an inversion of Kendal in a lot of ways.
Hey, it’s you again
BIIIIIG MUUUSCLE LAAADYYY AHAHAAAA AA A AAAAAA
FINALLY
SPARKY SPARKLE HAPPY BOOM WOMAN
LETSS GOO LIGHTING WOMAN
HELL YEAH
I love the detail you put into her Lichtenberg figure.
Thank you for pointing that out, i did not and would not have noticed.
Yes, thank you. I’m going to have to start opening the image full-sized to read it. Probably should have been doing that all along. This weekend I’ll to go back and re-read them all that way.
Who dat?

Falst is annoyed at punchy metal lady stealing his battle
IT IS TESS!!! HELLO!!!
NGAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
It’s my gurl, Golden Undyne… I mean, Tess!
WOW! punchy metal lady really earns her name
also did Falst just pass out?
I think he ran off. He’s understandably pretty skittish of strangers.
I just want to point out, this is the exact opposite energy of when Red and BLue fought that one Colossus
OI, KILL-STEALIN’S A HEINOUS OFFENSE IN THESE PARTS.
We’ll be keepin’ our peepers on ye, thief.
Just will a few panels, especially that “WOO!”, and she’s already got such a Red vibe! I frickan love her!!!
Is it just me or are they having way to much fun fighting dragons
They are having *exactly* the right amount of fun punching dragons.
I have exactly the same amount of fun fighting humans and dragons
Every time she talks I hear it on Red’s voice
Metal Lady: FALCON PUNCH
Falst: I was about to fight this dragon solo and show off my moves when this lady comes out of nowhere and beats my opponent with sheer force … This must be what Erin feels like.

Maybe he passed out
Personal trauma dealing with strangers is my bet…
Falcon punch? Or is it a dragon punch?
I don’t think he got a crush on her, https://comicaurora.tumblr.com/post/634309448406532096/youve-shared-the-sexualites-orientations-of-the
So, Kendal is ace, Falst is mostly gay… What are Alinua and Erin’s sexualities?
Red said it on Tumblr somewhere, but I lost the post. Alinua is pan, and Erin is bi, I believe.
I doubt it’s a nest, dragons have been noted as being extremely territorial.
THUNDERSTRUCK!
Okay guys, I’ve been doing some thinking. I think this is the grey person in the trope talks sketch.

The sketch in the Time Travel Episode?
I meant the one in the rule of three video
I am going to read her lines in Red’s voice from now on.
I think I have a new favourite character.
I’d say we ALL have a new favorite character tbh
PUNCHY METAL LADYYYYYY
She has a cape – what do you think the chances are she loses it for some reason? Alinua, Erin, and Falst have all had capes that subsequently disappeared….
You lose the cape when you join the Floof Squad, ha ha. It’s a motif.
Edna Mode keeps stealing them while they sleep
Even Kendal lost his, rip capes.
NO CAPES
Oh good, I was wondering if I was the only one who noticed this
85.95% on a bad day, 95.56 on a good day.
TL;DR: A majority of the theorist commenters were right. Metal lady comes and humiliates Catboy, but no one else sees… Sorry kitty.
Oh cool, she’s back!
But where’s Susan the Lightning Deity?
(No I will not rest until people start using that nickname$
Tynan, for anyone who reads this and is confused
Also, he’s probably still making his way across the Crow’s Head Plains, big d*ck swinging, looking for trouble
I’m sure they’ll notice his big d*ck energy from miles away! Uh, I mean his storm. Yeah.
Hey, I was right!
Now where did Falst get to?
ONE PUUUUUUUUUUUNCH!!! *sweet-ass guitar bit*
PUNCHY LIGHTING LADY 😀
Everyone in the comments is going nuts because of MPL (metal punchy lady) but I’m just hoping Falst’s okay.
I think he’s finding. Given the way predator Ferin are and have been treated hiding from people who hunt monster’s is probably a good learnt reaction
NEW FRIEND!!!
Tess time!
Is this the person everyone’s been calling Tess? Also really excited to find out what her deal is, for instance, why is she made of gold? And why gold of all things?
It’s because she’s precious.
Hehehehehe. I wish I could heart comments or something. But um, I think Tess is part of a race of element adapted people. They have an official name but I can’t remember it off the top of my head at the moment.
I think it’s called metal caste
Metalcaste – they’re a variation of Stone-adapted humans.
And iirc, Tess is bronze, not gold.
TESSSSSSSSSSS YUR HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now hurry and save our lion boi Falst
WooHoo!
Metal Lady has arrived!
Wonder what’s she’s up to out here? That’s the second time she’s punched a dragon in her 2 major appearances (Windcrest does not count)
Poor Metal Punch Lady, she just wants to be part of the protagonist so bad but they keep running away 🙁
She’s the happiest zappy person in the world!
Zap slap happy sweety?
So…?
Kendal = Leader
Alinua = Heart
Erin = Smart Guy
Falst = Lancer
Tess = Big Guy
Sounds about right
Kendal: Leader/Heart
Alinua: Heart/Big Guy
Erin: Smart Guy/Lancer
Falst: Lancer/Big Guy
Tess: Not a main protagonist (at least not yet)
finally! i was looking for the self – insert character
Congratulations! You killed Red!
https://twitter.com/AuroraWebcomic/status/1367224806186311688
Ah, so she does read the comments
I can’t express how exited I am, I am smelling protagonists
oooo yay she’s back!
ONE PUNCH WOMAN
the lighting is really pretty on this page
DAMN, Falst just got KILL STEALED (Also very pretty comic)
At first glance I didn’t see Falst in Panel 1 so my brain read it as Falst went Super Saiyan.
SUPPORTING CHARACTER INCOMING!!!!!!!
It’s official, sorry Falst, punchy lighting lady is my new favorite character.
Red can we get a printed copy after the story is over?
Il pay big money
I would definitely buy a physical copy of this.
Holy shit I love her
Alright, classic 5 man band format
Kendal: Leader
Alinua: Heart
Falst: Lancer
Erin: Smart guy
What does that leave us? The big guy. Who did we just meet again? A metal lady who beat in one hit a dragon that Falst was having issues with.
Conclusion: We found our 5th party member.
Is it too early to ship these two?
Water – tbd
Wind – bright wings dude
Stone – tbd
Fire – tbd
Lightning – Red’s Thor self-insert
Life – Alinua
Dark Dragon – Erin
oh yeah it’s all coming together
Ooh, we just got a new chapter cover in the archives!
Well, to quote Red, HELL YEAH
Sorry, that was meant to be a reply to above, it looks awesome
In one page she knocks out the monster; apologizes for stealing Falst’s thunder; explains her actions briefly; checks in when she doesn’t get a response. I love her already.
She’s great!
Alt text: dragons: 0, punchy metal lady: 2

so it wasn’t a raccoon ?
She stole his thunder. *ba-dum ching*
