TEAM SPOTLIGHT
It started in an alley in Mordant, as so many things began. Many things ended
in those alleys, also; they were not safe alleys.
Not safe, but they were clean, for certain values of the word "clean," the
Random Maniac saw to that. He did not mind blood, he spilled that himself, when the
urge came upon him, and he recognized that others felt that urge, too, from time to
time. But he would not tolerate drugs, or what he called "unnaturalness." No
vampires, and he fought the darker cults whenever he found them.
This night... he did not know what he'd found, but he knew it was unnatural, not
something he should allow in HIS alleys. Part of the uncanniness of it was that,
though there was a body, there was NO BLOOD. He squatted to examine the corpse.
Recently dead, possibly of the cut throat. Although a cut throat, as he well knew,
should result in blood everywhere. Perhaps the throat had been cut after death,
which made no sense that he could see. But sometimes people ignored reasons when
they killed. Reason was overrated anyway. He did not place a high value on it
himself. Someone, perhaps the killer, had opened the body and removed, he leaned
closer to be sure, had removed the liver. Another thing that made no sense. Most of
the livers that walked the alleys of Mordant were unhealthy, and this one... yes,
that was a face he'd seen before, this one would have been nearly pickled in alcohol.
Well, no matter, this was a Wrong Thing, something he would not allow in his
alleys. He would discover who had done this and make sure it didn't happen again.

SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
MORDANT brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. Now keep the taverns open late
tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for RUN DMC, whose 0-1-0 this turn dropped
them by 4 into 9th. Ha! Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see GRASS CUTTER
win a fight and gain 27 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, TIEN-SHU OF GENRAI beat CEREAL
KILLER and CEREAL KILLER lost 18 points. You're breakin' my heart. WHISKEY
challenged RANDOM MANIAC for MORDANT's Title this turn, and guess what happened? And
if variety is the spice of life, MORDANT may be getting bland, as WHISKEY stays top
dog in the city. I'm not in a very good mood today, but why am I telling you this?
You want to know what's new, don't you, MORDANT?
My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start
talking.' I loved that woman. CAT'S MEOW, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were
this turn's most avoided team. Care to know who is the most afraid of you? And who
led the way in this mass act of cowardice? Let's see, well, whatcha know? It was
BOOZE. Ha ha ha ha! Ooh, I'm frightfully impressed, RANDOM MANIAC was this turn's
most challenged warrior. Watch that ego swell, sports fans.
Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for MORDANT's
morgue. More variety. So, RUN DMC, just going to let HARD TIMES rot in peace are
we? Bye bye Bloodfeud, hello gloating arrogant BLACK BONKER. Titanium shields and
bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing these kinds of weapons?
I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for
an epee. Forgive me for writing with a dagger. Just wait 'till next time I show up
here, I won't be so nice! So nyaaah! I see the crowds are getting restless, I must
leave now-- Snide Clemens
