That second to last panel will forever be burned into my mind as Gilda exploding out of a Cheese Sandwich like a xenomorph. With frosting and sprinkles instead of blood. O.o
I'm gonna have to see if I can't stat that up. A golem that seems harmless, but is filled with more dangerous stuff that busts out when you hit it enough would be an Awesome encounter.

I don't know, it didn't work so well for Mami in Madoka Magica...
Not sure what system you play, but in Pathfinder a character with a high enough escape artist skill can crawl up someones rectum and burst out of their chest. As I recall it is possible to reliably use this trick by level five or six, I can't quite remember.
A piñata golem... I wouldn't mind making some Pathfinder stats for it. Of course, I'd use it as a lesson to the party to not attack something just because it looks fun to it...
The one thing you should never do is 'attack an unarmed combatant/ally of mine'.
For if you do, I will 'I will ensure I multiclass into barbarian, monk, and something else with the challenge ability for the next time we meet'.
That's quite the transition. Not only the image of Gilda popping out of Cheese, but the way the "voice" I read them as INSTANTLY swaps back to Gilda's.
(Mind, I can switch those voices around if I want to. I've occasionally entertained myself by reading the Bible in the voices of Star Trek actors, for instance. But things like this... well, there's a default. And that default, in this case, changed very quickly.)
Okay, I know this is last comic's thing, but after last night, I feel the need to get in on the action.

God help me, I can't unsee it! Curse you, Digo Dragon!!
A shame someone filled him with grumpy griffons.

That was good, that was really good.
Now to pen up some chest bursters to scare the hell out of some adventurers.
The one thing should never do is _______.
For if you do, I will ________.
Me:killing innocent beings, age you till your nothing but time dust.
For if you do, I will make a mockery of the answers.
Not sure I can top that, even if I stuck to the spirit of the question.
My character's name is ANW.
For if you do, I will 'I will ensure I multiclass into barbarian, monk, and something else with the challenge ability for the next time we meet'.

And yes, xenomorph Gilda with instantly-changing voice is cool.

And, hopefully, now, Gilda can admit that it was pretty fun.
