SPY REPORT Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for NIANIA. MVP award for BRAVO? DUNGEON CELL's proud of him after beating BARRUK and getting 23 points. And I was just getting used to the ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!) Oh well, welcome CUTPURSE. Aren't DUNGEON CELL proud. (Oh, my.) Who was the wiseguy that said NIANIA's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at Jim's Tap Room? Don't look at me! So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway? It can't be for these really neat Spyreports can it? Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds. All NIANIA ever talks about is fighting! Me, I'm more laid back. What a bummer! BARRUK got wasted by BRAVO! But with a 12-15-2, I guess THE GOLDEN FISH aren't too bummed. What if they had a fight and nobody showed up? I'd be out of a job, that's what!!! Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand wash. I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits. Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out!

Us and the standbys, four-one for us. I took a lot of pleasure in devastating the Insurance Agent, and I really don't feel so badly about Barruk losing to the Convicted Assassin--this time. Barruk's half orc, you know, so we have to make the occasional allowance. Ambitious Guard, Userous Merchant, Embezzling Scribe. And at least Minnow has taken over as Favorite, which makes one less job for me! It'll do, but it isn't very challenging. -- Peter Netley LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS PRISONER 2 was butchered by ARENAMISTRESS VORA in a 1 minute Dark Arena fight. PRISONER 1 was butchered by BANDIT PRINCE in a 2 minute Dark Arena duel. PETER NETLEY was demolished by CUTPURSE in a 1 minute one-sided Title melee. BRAVO assassinated BARRUK in a 1 minute bloody mismatched duel. PIKESTAVE was savagely defeated by VENOMOUS CONCUBINE in a 2 minute veteran's fight. MINNOW devastated FRATSFA SLAVE in a 1 minute bloody one-sided duel. AURELISCES overpowered CULT MEMBER in a 1 minute mismatched brawl. OUBLIETTE overpowered PERSISTENT BEGGAR in a 1 minute uneven melee.

There often was, but surely not now? Alarond the Scribe, who had drawn office duty today, frowned at them. A stocky, fit, moderately handsome gladiator stepped up to the counter. "I want a name-change," he said. "How can I do my best known as," he shuddered, "'Dangling Eyeball'? My name is Joe, and I want to use it." A small and very shapely woman stepped up beside him. "And I am really tired of being known as 'DA Bait'." She smiled, causing Alarond to sway where he stood. "I'd like to be known as... Aphrodite, I think." The others crowded forward, each advancing a claim, the babble of voice rising to a roar, the crowd beginning to look like a mob--and every member of it armed and dangerous. Alarond raised his hands to quiet them, without much success. He raised his voice, too. "We'll do it! A Name-Change-O-Rama, as soon as we can get the paperwork lined up! Two or three months, maybe--" The gladiators howled in protest at the delay. "No, listen! The files here are HUGE, it will take time to get everything straight. You've got to be patient. It WILL happen!" * * * * * Warrior and team name changes will be accepted during the month of January. If you have names you want to change, please contact Customer Service. -- RSI
