DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
How interesting. I missed a couple of turns and it looked like I might have missed my
shot at the title. But thanks to a little Chaos from Worlds Colliding, I find myself
on the throne. I remember when Shan sat here and I was looking to move up, the
Challenger Champs was pretty thin. Now I am looking down at 8 others who probably
want my throne. The crowd is nice to see. Bonsur deserves the attention. As for
those challengers, one of you is welcome to it. Just not whichever one I end up
fighting. I didn't challenge anyone, so we shall see who gets their shot. The plan,
of course, is for me to crush whoever I face and have Equinox claim the top spot. We
shall see. Before we can worry about that I shall have to take someone down with this
warhammer they say I like. Interesting. I have used it, but it never really seemed
better than the other options. I was always a bit inclined towards the staff or
halberd. Yep, I am a basher who can use both of those. 17-3-12-11(+1)-17(+1)-10-
17(+1) Hmmm. Giving out those numbers probably says I am headed towards retirement.
Not a bad option considering it comes with a healthy dose of immortality.
Stay bloody and upright, Bonsur.
-- Lord Protector, Dawn Squire
SPY REPORT
Hello!
My thanks to Dawn Squire for a rousing and interesting column. He has moved on to the
Isle, and best of luck there!
Of the stylemasters in Bonsur's arena today, two are from the Ninjas team. Anzai
Muro is new to this honor, being the top Slasher. ANZAI MURO (7-5594) (14-9-0,87) of
NINJAS challenged THE LADY (7-7511) (13-22-0,77) of REAVERS. ANZAI MURO overpowered
THE LADY in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge fight. Well done.
There are seven names in our dead column. Four were dark arena challenges.
Three may lead to bloodfeuds:
LUKE (7-7566) (6-13-1,38) of CRAZY CO-WORKERS fought STALWART (7-7637) (2-0-0,25)
of SENTINELS. LUKE was easily killed by STALWART in a 1 minute one-sided contest.
The Crazy Co-Workers still have three fighters with which to bloodfeud. Stalwart
doesn't look so tough, but might have a lot of hidden tourney wins.
EIGENVECTOR (7-7616) (3-3-0,21) of KOSA LEGION challenged TO THE WALL (7-7607)
(4-4-0,23) of RISE OF CHAOS. EIGENVECTOR delivered the death blow upon TO THE WALL in
a 1 minute Challenge match. Rise of Chaos still has three fighters who can bloodfeud,
one of them being the formidable Duelmaster, Koolaid.
AKI GENJI (7-7585) (4-3-0,37) of NINJAS challenged INDIGO WASP (7-7633) (3-1-
0,34) of SENTINELS. AKI GENJI dispatched INDIGO WASP in a 2 minute Challenge fight.
It appears that Sentinels still have two fighters active who can bloodfeud.
Quietus seems to be hanging on to his popularity. Let's see why: DUENDE (7-
7375) (21-15-0,124) of ESPANA fought QUIETUS (7-7542) (15-14-1,82) of REAVERS. DUENDE
was devastated by QUIETUS in a 1 minute one-sided battle. Duende, by the way,
contributed to Espana's 0-4-0 turn.
Least popular: Losing to a stand-in, Shagrat disgraced himself. SHAGRAT (7-589)
(0-1-0,1) of THE URUK-HAI fought MORDANT DESERTER (7-660) (0-0-0,5). SHAGRAT was
overpowered by MORDANT DESERTER in a 2 minute one-sided bout.
That's all I see in my notes, so I'll sign off. Goodbye!

PERSONAL ADS
Shocking Toad -- That was quite a history delivered. My Vikings squad has fights
against all of those warriors you mention -- Wurp, Jarl, X the Bold, Culubra, and
Jacob -- up in my attic on old dot-matrix printer paper, I believe. But I would have
sworn that Culubra and Jacob were on a team called The Warriors, not Praetorian Guard.
Am I really remembering that incorrectly? Defeating X the Bold when he had a crazy
36-12 record gave me my first ever Duelmaster. Yes, I remember the details as I was
likely still in junior high at the time, maybe early high school. It was cool. In
fact, while I don't run may tourney teams, I have one named Historical Kolact that
includes a two-time Piker TV named Y the Bold. I think Jarl off of that team died.
Sentinels was my second squad. Off of the Vikings, Chimborazo was the first graduate,
Dimetreas the only one to make it off of the original team sheet (21-speed TP? Sure,
why not?). Stren-Thion and Everest are the only other lord protectors who would have
been around when you played. -- Nomad
Quietus -- I guess sometimes experience doesn't win? I'll take that. -- Equinox
Cosmic Pickle -- What exactly is a Cosmic Pickle? Still basically a cucumber? Dill?
Or just a bit green after that fight? -- Stalwart
Crooked Grin -- I think I'm the one with a grin this time since I actually managed a
win! -- Cataclysm
