Yeah, though the Hand of Hell was over me, I trimmed its nails and broke its knuckles and the day was mine. Pretty good, actually, since I only had about three times his fights. Koronedus SPY REPORT You elder fighters surely remember me. The younger ones may call me Olaf Modeen. I return to NIANIA once again! Biff! Pow! NIANIA watched with glee as THE GOLDEN FISH got knocked off top spot by TEAM HAVOK! What's with DOLOVOR? He actually beat MEDAL OF HONOR A1's YUKIO OKUTSU, and walked away with 21 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at NIANIA while they watched DANGEROUS CRIMINAL clobber HAND OF HELL. He lost 9 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands. Our Duelmaster has lost, folks, lost to KUNG-FU MASTER, BUT KORONEDUS is still the Duelmaster because he has the most recognition points! Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects to practice on? I hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted prisoners. No matter the time or place, men will always duel. What do people see in HAROLUE? His 2-3-0? THE GOLDEN FISH ain't talkin', but he's got 15 points. I hate going to the effort of writing about the kind of fights that ALLAN OHATA gets in. He fights people like GILLANDE, 9 points below. I thought ALLAN OHATA showed great skill and promise when he overcame GILLANDE. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal! Warriors of NIANIA unite. You have only your games to lose! How long have I been here? I got people to see, places to go... Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt. NIANIA is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and good luck.

I see the plan, you know my tricks, such as they are, and want another win. I can understand that. I don't necessarily LIKE it, but I CAN understand it. Dammit. -- Harolue The Khalhums Dwarf, old Gobiann Strongaxe, here to see me off. I'm...touched, I guess. He once abducted one of my teammates. I'd call him an odd duck, but he isn't a duck, for which I suppose I should be grateful. -- Larsen E Tortoni -- Oops, I guess you were a sweet "to die for," in a manner of speaking. What a shocking way to get my first win. Fare you well in the afterlife of your choice. -- Gillande Vendetta -- It happens. It's all those sharp pointy things we carry out onto the sands. -- Ghost of Sashinda Yukio Okutsu -- I consider that totally unnecessary, and probably "cruel and unusual punishment," besides. Racial prejudice, perhaps? -- Ssothiss the Deathless, Convicted in passing and wrongly of petty thievery (they couldn't get me for the big stuff) Vendetta -- I suppose I should be glad to escape with my life, not that my life is anything to write home about at the moment, and I suppose I AM glad to escape with my life, but-- Ah, lost my train of thought there. Good fight. -- Wellondry, Osksi Noble, or so they tell me Spiritual Pain -- Bwahaha! -- Red Barkol, the Most Dangerous Criminal Larsen E -- Get out of here, you worthless bum! -- Gobiann Strongaxe, Khalhums Dwarf 9 July 2007 I have not been receiving my physical turns in a reliable manner lately. If there are diplos with the turns that go missing, they're gone for good. So if you send me a diplo and do not see an acknowledgement of receipt in the personals, know that I have not gotten it (yet). If you have email, contact me at Livia AT reality DOT com. If you don't have email, keep trying with the diplos. We are working on this problem. -- the Scribe/Jorja/Leeta P.S. If you email me, put "Re DM" on the subject line.
