DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
The Convicted Assassin was just going through the motions. Someone has to do
it, I suppose, they can't just hand me the title without a fight. But I incline to
the suspicion that he's right about his conviction, and possibly even about his
accusation of assassination in the first place: Someone is out to GET him.
Grond
SPY REPORT
Greetings, Warriors of NIANIA. Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to give
you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport. Practice pays for LILLY
PEPPER, who pummelled DANGEROUS CRIMINAL, to pocket 24 points. A certain someone
should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 13 points to
CONVICTED ASSASSIN. (Discrete enough, GULBY?) Now I can't insult HORMONAL GROWTH, as
he has gloriously dueled to the top. Oh great new Duelmaster!!! (Stop me if I lay
it on too thick) Word has it one team in NIANIA is using psychics to predict wins.
They lead a charmed life!
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the lion, so
did the "warriors" in NIANIA avoid THE GOLDEN FISH. Like a pup with its tail between
its legs, WIDE WORLD OF... scurried away from THE GOLDEN FISH. Oh, the shame!
Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and GOLDINA is it right now. Most challenged
warrior. Isn't THE GOLDEN FISH proud!
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Oh hard! that
to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!
All good things must come to an end. Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards
fat! Do not despair! I shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Grond -- I'm sure glad I'm not the one who made the Vixen Venomous... at least it's
not called that where I come from. -- Haus
The Golden Fish -- Sorry to take your spot... okay maybe not woohoo! But, we are a
young team and that sort of thing happens. We are working without 'profile' sheet
sot there is a lot of guess work as I forget their stats. Hope the luck stays. --
Gavin
Embezzling Scribe -- I'd sure like to know how a TP gets the drop on me, a striker,
who's running hard... ouch! I wasn a rematch! -- Haus
Hormonal Growth -- Ah, you're back. Gotta love these one-man teams. Well, no doubt
they serve their purpose. -- Kestratlak
I never did like the idea of orcs learning kung-fu. They've got enough advantages
already. -- Gallordin
Will I sound paranoid if I suggest that the Venomous Concubine is setting me UP for
something? -- Gulby
I felt sorry for-- Okay, if you must know, I felt INTIMIDATED by the Captured Orc.
He just grinned at me, baring those tusks, and I really couldn't think about fighting
him off. -- Goldina
P.S. You know what they say, big tusks correspond to big in other places.
We tried to write some personals today, but our scribing golem got soaked and
wouldn't work. Take it that we wrote and responded with dazzling wit and just a tish
of cool sarcasm. -- the Standbys of Niania
If there were supposed to be more personals here, our apologies. Hal took the
weekend off, and we're still trying to catch up with the mail. They should
appear next time.
