DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Well, HECK. My teammates (where are the other two?) get to fight real warriors
and I get the Venomous Concubine? Uh, not that I have any personal animus against
Seef Haraine, mind you. (Nasty wench in an alley!) But it wasn't an impressive
match. I don't feel that I really DEFENDED the title, as she wouldn't have taken it
regardless.
Larsen E
SPY REPORT
Much has changed in NIANIA since last I was here. Never fear, Olaf Modeen
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters. Woof! TEAM HAVOK were a
bunch of dogs after THE GOLDEN FISH got through with 'em! 2nd ain't so sweet as 1st!
What's with KEY LIME? It actually beat TEAM HAVOK's HAND OF GOD, and walked away
with 15 more points from the fight. Try as he might, 4 BRIDGES wasn't good enough at
persuading LARSEN E to step down from the Duelmaster's throne... I suppose you want
to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters? Tough!
If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills,
fight dirty.
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. NIANIA is
a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. Time for my
medication, so I'll leave now. Practice, practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Sashinda -- You have brought an early end upon hour beloved Fatal Angel, (in the
excitement of battle, she forgot to cover her noggin). But when you dealt your death
blow upon her head you have brought me to the arena sands. You have brought a power
beyond the fire within the sun! A power that one day you will need to face. -- Hand
of God
Sashinda -- The warriors of Team Havok tend not to follow along the common road. We
are sworn to travel down the narrow less traveled and somewhat unconventional
pathways. There will be triumphant victories and bloody losses, but let it be known
Havok will be brought to all teams within Niania. -- Spiritual Pain
Ghost of Fatal Angel -- I'm really sorry about that, I didn't set out MEANING to do
it. It isn't like this arena has any warriors to spare, after all. -- Sashinda
P.S. I think you were cursed by your name. Blame it on your manager.
Vendetta -- NEVER parry with your face! What good does it do for us to go into the
arena with the attitude and instructions: "Leave 'em alive if you can."
(Alternative phrasing: "Go ahead, live, see if I care.") -- Koronedus
Spiritual Pain -- Wow, talk about "cruel and unusual punishment," you know how to
dish it out. I was in AGONIES over the state of my soul! -- Biff Mugg, Late of
Mordant
P.S. And I'm not a person that cares that much about souls, you know? I figure the
gods take care of the souls, I've got my hands full taking care of the body.
Hand of Hell -- I laugh. -- Jenj, Fratsfa Slave
Larsen E -- That was barely adequate. -- Seef Haraine, Venomous Concubine and
Guardian of Gladiatorial Morality
Ghost of Candy Cane -- (smacking his lips) Very tasty. -- Wurm Kin
