DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Listen, Rocanis, while I flap my bardic inspirations! What motley congregation of
braggarts struts before me, clad in borrowed valor as though steel alone could furnish
courage? I have seen kitchen boys with more mettle in their marrow than this parade of
peacocks, who crow loud at dawn yet flee at dusk.
Juniper flexes as though his sinews were spun by gods--yet I've marked him blanch at
the mere whisper of sharpened iron. Marlboro Man swaggers, drunk not on wine but on
his own hollow legend, a tale oft told and never proven. And you, Lump-O-Coal, with
your helm askew and with a skewer still--pray tell, is confusion thy chosen tactic, or
merely thy
nature?
You call yourselves gladiators? Nay, you are but actors in dented armor, playing at
war whilst true steel laughs at your pretense. When next you enter the sands, do try
to die with dignity--it would be your first convincing performance.
For my part, I shall watch with keen delight, for nothing so entertains as the fall of
men who mistake noise for greatness.
Until next time, may the gods guide your blows wide and false!
-- Venomous Cur, Your Duelmaster
SPY REPORT
Welcome ROCANIS. I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights have
I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Ya gotta be quick on yer
feet! Keep your elbow off the table! Thrust! Block out the pain! BARDIC FLAPPERY
is now ranked 3rd with a 3-2-0 turn. What's with SLIVERED OAK? It actually beat
ALLIANCE's GHOULIA, and walked away with 22 more points from the fight. Major
screwup at ALLIANCE. GHOULIA lost 15 points to SLIVERED OAK. Some new strategies,
perhaps? Maybe GHOULIA will provide more easy wins... Try as she might, JUNIPER
wasn't good enough at persuading VENOMOUS CUR to step down from the Duelmaster's
throne... Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!
If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports. How
well I know the feeling of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of
practive, ALLIANCE! The bums at CHRISTMAS CURSES couldn't face the challenges from
ALLIANCE! No excuse for that!
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? Who will dare fight ZIPPER, after he returned from the Dark
Arena? (For the record 6-3-2 is 63, and has he points) Is it my imagination, or are
fighters getting younger every day? To die so young, so gloriously!
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. All work
and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter. Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.
Olaffighterwork and no play. Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and
good luck. Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen
