                                 DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
                             Notes from the arena champ.

     It's getting to be slim pickings around here.
     As a general rule, I try to avoid robbing the same guy twice.  With so few
gladiators and spectators in this city, I'm having trouble avoiding temptation.

Cutpurse

                                      SPY REPORT

     I was going on vacation, see?  Surf, sun...  But what do those bums say?  "Hit 
the road, Debby Tonte.  NIANIA needs a spyreport."  Oh, well.  MVP award for 
PIKESTAVE?  THE GOLDEN FISH's proud of him after beating CONVICTED ASSASSIN and 
getting 17 points.  This Duelmaster is like something else!  CUTPURSE stopped PETER 
NETLEY dead in his tracks!  Is the Duelmaster really being a real snob to his 
teammates?  Don't ask me!   
     AAARRGH!!!  I HATE SPYREPORTING!!!  Sorry.  I just had to say it.   
     What does a fighter fight for?  I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone 
gets killed.  Not after four more fights.  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 gotta leave.  NIANIA is like such a dump, and you guys smell too much!  Its 
been really albendranius!  Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

Sorry about the death, Golden Fish.  I don't like to kill wantonly; only when hired
to do so. -- Bravo

Bark the Bigger -- You are big, but we could probably still find a deep dark cell for
you. -- Oubliette

Shortest day in the year, and we are SOOO glad that's over.  We're being Seasonally
Affected.

Cutpurse -- Cut away!  There's nothing in it. -- Peter Netley

Bravo -- You're such a hotshot, bless your heart. -- Pikestave

Not a good day for us with the Dangerous Criminal.  Um... our fingers were too cold
to hold our weapons properly? -- Minnow and Aurelisces

Oubliette -- I thought at first you were an elf, and then I saw you were not (no
points on your ears), and I was confused.  I don't need confusion.  It gets in the
way of smashing things. -- Bark the Bigger
