I think that was established – his brain is encased in an extremely effective protective gel, which is how it survived being thrown in the sewer. No telling what upgrades his clone body may have.
Improvised Melee Weapons are 1d4 + your Strength modifier, and attacks are made without proficiency, unless you have appropriate feats / etc.
It’s up to the DM if using a living creature as a weapon causes damage to that creature as well, although most DMs would probably rule that it does at least some, unless there is some solid mitigating reason why it wouldn’t in a specific scenario.
That’s something I would actually expect from unity, maybe tip should get his blood checked to see if unity’s blood from that werewolf insedent isn’t having a adverse effect.
If Lee is a near-Mad, Tip is a near-Super: aside from his Mojo, he’s also extremely strong for his size (swinging around a human being like a flail, even a short one, is not easy)
If you’re bashing police, it’s a Nick Neck Paddy Whack. And if Sweetheart’s along, you could also Give the Dog a Bone while Unity’s head Came Rolling Home.
Neither; he is using mojo. And now I need to come up with some fan fic of how Tigerlily installed some springs that synergizes with Virginia’s wifi to allow him to hack reality itself. Fortunately he hasn’t figured out how much control he has yet, or he would defeat Anasigma in three strips.
I’ve got a club and his name is Nick.
Dozen swings and a penalty kick.
He’s a loyal fellow but a bit of a prick.

We’ve done some missions stopping crime,
Filled with dirt and filth and slime,
And I’ve nailed every girl in my time
From here-and-there to high-and-low…oh…
Slow swing, everybody duck.
Slow swing, ‘cause you guys ran out of luck.
And you’ll always get disabled,
You’ll always lose these brawls,
When I carry Nick and swing him at the move of y’all.

There aren’t any other somethings available, not sure what you were expecting to happen after that request!
Tip clearly has access to hammerspace – he routinely pulls outfits, guns, and all sorts of other things out of thin air as needed.
I’m getting strong Ranma 1/2 memories from this.
So how much melee damage might Nick’s body be expected to do when used as a weapon? 🙂
Depends on whether you care or not if he’s any use afterwards.
I’m assuming Nick’s been… reinforced.

From the look of things Dr. Lee or Tigerlily must put some metal in his skull to do that kind of damage.

I do like these moments when Tip spends of a couple points out of his pool of Badass.
Attack
-> Use: +5 Nick of Thwacking
Magic
Item
Two handed weapon….or four??
(I think) Nick has two hands — unless there’s another drone-body he can duel wield? Other than the Violet drone now that’t’s Bubbles’ ofc.

As if there were any question that Unity’s blood might have an adverse effect?
Define “adverse”.
In this case, I’d say “less than optimal” or “being undesirably harmful”.
Then again, some people might actually enjoy the harmful side-effects.

That is how Tip was noticed in the first place – by pulling 3 fellow soldiers out of a burning humvee =

This move is called the Nick Knock.
When you hit your foe just below the chin, it’s call the Nick Neck Knock.
The skill required to do this move properly is the Nick Neck Knock Knack.
If Curly from The Three Stooges laughed while doing it, that would be a Nick Neck Knock Knack Nyuk.
And if I tried to get the author of “Girlbot” into this, she’d slap me.
If you’re bashing police, it’s a Nick Neck Paddy Whack. And if Sweetheart’s along, you could also Give the Dog a Bone while Unity’s head Came Rolling Home.
If she drew it, it would be a Nock Nick Neck Knock Knack Nyuk.
And it would be worth getting slapped.

Hi Eddurd:
Nice to see you are still around even if you aren’t drawing Everyday Heros.
I love this so much! And Tip’s expression and body language in the last panel is priceless!
Technically, Nick took out those goons!
I hope he didn’t suffer any sort of concussion…
So is Nick keeping his kipah on with clips, or duct tape?
Neither; he is using mojo. And now I need to come up with some fan fic of how Tigerlily installed some springs that synergizes with Virginia’s wifi to allow him to hack reality itself. Fortunately he hasn’t figured out how much control he has yet, or he would defeat Anasigma in three strips.
I need sleep.
“I saw Jason Ogg hitting four elves with the first thing he could get hold of-”
“Another elf?”
“Right.”
Pterry reference? Please consider yourself upvoted.
Perfect. Especially Tip looking so satisfied at the end.
Ooh, great idea.
Hell with psychology. Deep down, Tip really enjoyed that.
He came up with a workable solution, and just in the nick of time, too.
Heh. Heh. Heh.
God, I love these middle panels. The looks on their faces in panel 3! Beautiful.
Tip’s face in panel 3 is amazing.

Nick cannot go for a walk. No matter how Wilkin can talk. So Tip takes a swing at the goon guards in green. He gives them a mighty good thwock.
It is late in the evening. My mother is asleep and I don’t want to disturb her.
I nearly died NOT laughing!!
I’mma beat this muddy trucker with another muddy trucker!
Ah, the good ol’ George Carlin Perfect Murder Technique: you grab one guy by the ankles, swing him around and smash him headfirst into another guy.
Ooo, that’s gonna leave big bruises.
The human flail is such a delightful weapon. I love this strip.
