Huh. That's a good point. Artsapat Send a noteboard - 01/10/2013 07:20:17 PM

Is it revealed what kind of race our victim was, or where he was from? He sold stuff from Klatch, but that's supposed to be a parody of Arabian countries, so his name (within Pratchett world) would be (vaguely) Arabic as well. I would rule out he's Klatchian, on that (thin) basis.

Also, was it mentioned what was stated on the pamphlet? Was it a membership drive? Or a "get rid of foreigners" thing?

So, we have a man who can be either the victim of the Hippos, in which case he should have been either a foreigner, or somebody who opposes how foreigners are treated by the Hippos.
Or, he was a member of the Hippos, and was hit in the head by somebody of the opposing side. The marbles thing doesn't suggest anything within the Discworld Canon, but anything with stones would suggest either Dwarves or Trolls to me.

My other options (cults, SK) do not seem to fit this one case.

The mystery deepens... I think. *MySmiley*

I did aswell. Bergioyn - 30/09/2013 09:09:32 PM 1617 Views
nope *NM* Yunalesca - 30/09/2013 11:14:57 PM 1093 Views
I did, and as above. Fanatic-Templar - 01/10/2013 02:42:45 AM 1566 Views
EBWOP: The victim, that is. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 01/10/2013 02:43:17 AM 971 Views
I can confirm that. ranagrande - 01/10/2013 04:00:22 AM 1534 Views
Well, that basically settles my speculation then - We're up against the Hippo League *NM* Artsapat - 01/10/2013 02:33:41 PM 966 Views
Except the pamphlet was on the victim. Fanatic-Templar - 01/10/2013 06:46:18 PM 1541 Views
Or it could have been a calling card? *NM* Bergioyn - 01/10/2013 06:48:30 PM 880 Views
Huh. That's a good point. Artsapat - 01/10/2013 07:20:17 PM 1559 Views

to take it even further..or is this ridiculous? Taiga - 02/10/2013 04:00:17 PM 1623 Views
