Skarkill vs. Lissard
by Steven Webberley

Five Reasons why Skarkill was better than Lissard

- Skarkill was threatening, Lissard was smarmy
- Skarkill actually actively go in the dungeon, spending most of his time there, Lissard, er, just once (and in disguise for most of that - bit of a coward)
- Skarkill actually captured a dungeoneer, has Lissard?!
- Skarkill's friends, Grippa, Rhark and Tiny always hunted, Lissard's mates Brollachan and Sly Hands were more interested in knowledge and drink.
- And the one big reason why Skarkill was better than Lissard…

… Skarkill's breath doesn't reek of fish.

"You smell like something the cat brought up," deadpanned Lord Fear rather casually to Lissard.


Five Reasons why Lissard was better than Skarkill

- Lissard isn't accident-prone.
- The quality of training Lissard provided was obviously better since those he knows don't get thrown off card puzzles, get chased by pookas, or get scorched by Smirkenorff. You surely can't blame Rapture all the time for the quality of the goblins training, now can you?
- Lissard can be more evil than Lord Fear
- Lissard is far cleverer and uses own initiative.
- And the one big reason why Lissard was better than Skarkill…

… Lissard have good managerial skills, Skarkill can't even control a hobgoblin.

"You crazed me, and crr-azed about, gettiiing a hobgoblin," said Lord Fear impersonating Skarkill at times, "and now you've got one, you just can't control it."
