That seems rather inaccurate for a portrait of Terry. First, you start with an inverted hypercube, large enough to enclose the universe (and, as hypercubes are 4d, enclosing the small stretch of time wherein dwarven life has evolved). Then you make the outlines (inlines?) intersect, before adding a smiley face to one of the (in)sides, along with a pair of short-shorts.

That'd make a great sig.

You're overcomplicating things. Terry is a being of symbolism, chaos, and impressionism. To have so ordered a form as you suggest would counteract both his ability to wreak havoc ( as he would have to worry about destroying himself ) and blow minds ( as he is rather easily measured with such a form. ) Besides anyway, it was a joke. I drew that thing over half a year ago because I was bored.

And besides, didn't Terry say that he was seventy-something-dimensional? A tesseract wouldn't cut it.

He wasn't even describing a tesseract, he was describing a mere hypercube. I've played a Rubik's cube in four dimensions and one in five dimensions, I know what I'm talking about. Though why it would resemble a two-dimensional smiley face from all directions is beyond me...

There's a difference? I always thought hypercube was a layman's term for a tesseract, a four dimensional cube.

I can't seem to find the picture, but didn't Lord Anima decree that Terry was a camp-looking man in short shorts and sandals?

No, no, no... A tesseract is a five dimensional cube. Or more often a five-dimensional hyperbola, but it can refer to both.

Look, can we quit it with the two-dimensional representations of four-dimensional objects? I was just trying to establish a metaphor that can easily be represented in a vaguely comprehensible way whilst still being kind of disturbing. And anyway, the original picture of Terry clearly shows that he looks like a guy on a skateboard wearing, if my memory is accurate, short-shorts and a goofy grin. Anyway, I think Terry is rather clearly an i-dimensional anomaly rather than a creature that merely exists within existing dimensions.

Terry is the personification of what you would get if you took an i-dimensional being, strung it out to n dimensions, used the strings in the world's deadliest game of Cat's Cradle, put the whole thing into a scanner, and 'shopped it to look like said aforementioned gay skater dude.

Edit: I'm not homophobic (seriously, I don't give a shit.  If you're gay, that's cool.  if you're not, that's cool too.  As long as you don't try to rape me, it's none of my business), I just couldn't think of any better way to describe what I remember of Terry.

Did you know that the Russian word for "sock" is "no sock"?
I just saw a guy with two broken legs push a minecart with a corpse in it. Yeah.

DEAR GOD TALONIS IS MARRIED TO TERRY. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT MAN, YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN.

Also, I apparently am a fat married woman with a son. Eh, I've been worse.

What the fuck. Is some random undorfed recruit now our new Darkwing? Hell, even Darkwing just managed to kill two clowns before he went down. It's beyond me that a frigging recruit in the Official Voidspawn Feeding Detachment managed a triple kill on Forgotten Armokhumping Beasts.
