Delarquan Edition
Old Valamantis:
The group of gladiators moved toward the edge of the risen city as slowly and
carefully as they would have approached a sleeping dragon... that maybe wasn't
sleeping after all. There was a partial wall separating the buildings from the
countryside around them, but it must be outside the area of effect, because it was
not in good condition. There were gaps and fallen stones, even trees growing between
them where the ages had trapped dirt.
Smeds of Mordant patted one of the stones thoughtfully. "Honest stonework
here," he murmured.
"And more recent than the ruins," Shamu of Cliffhome agreed. "Six hundred
years, I'd say." He glanced at Smeds, and the other Dwarf nodded agreement.
"Built just before the most recent Chaos War," the Silver Mage said, "to keep
things in the ruins from getting out. Brought down by that war, at least in part.
But..." he touched several stones lightly and smiled a little, "not completely
useless even now and against this enemy. Honest stonework, as you say, but there is
a barrier spell bound within the stones, and it remains."
"If the spell is still working, why are we worrying about the ruins?" Smeds of
Mordant demanded.
"Because the spell will not keep working much longer." Tensekai frowned across
the wall into the city. "It was a good wall and a good spell, but it won't hold
Folstrom forever. Nothing--" He stopped and looked uncomfortable.
"You were going to say that nothing will hold the Folstrom forever?" Sputter of
Dwes Eg asked.
Tensekai shrugged. "No absolute statement like that should be trusted, but I
can honestly say that nothing we've found so far, except raw Chaos, will stop them.
We have new spells, of course, but what was there to test them on? We don't know."
"Yes, okay, but what are we supposed to be DOING here, then?" Lavender Lance of
Illis asked.
"You must observe," the Silver Mage answered promptly. "And I must go with you,
because there are some things ONLY a mage can observe. If we can find the keystone
of the spell that holds the towers up, we could destroy it, yes, and it might be a
good thing to do so, but the towers are just a symptom. There are more dangerous
things in Old Valamantis than just the towers."
"Those things being?" Smeds cut in.
"The wizards, obviously," Lavender Lance snapped.
"Again, just a symptom," Tensekai said. "Dangerous, yes, very dangerous,
but...."
Ka D'Argo, who had never been described as stupid, even by his enemies, nodded
slightly. "The wizards in Old Valamantis were resurrected along with the city," he
said slowly. "You think there might be some way for them to reach other wizards,
other Folstrom, of THIS time, don't you? That's what we have to prevent."
Tensekai nodded.
"How?" Smeds demanded.
"I'm not sure," the Silver Mage admitted. "Killing the resurrected wizards
might do it."
"But you don't think that's enough, do you?" Goblin said.
"No. I think we'll have to destroy the old city again," Tensekai answered.
"And that won't be easy with all the blood that's been spilled there. Not when blood
magic is at its strongest, as now."
"But it can be done?" Smeds asked.
"To get rid of bloodstains, soak in cold water and hand-wash," Lavender Lance
muttered.
Tensekai turned toward her slowly, eyes wide. "WHAT did you say?"
The Illisni gladiator backed up a couple of steps in the face of his intensity.
"It's how you get bloodstains out of cloth. Soak it in cold water--"
"Yes!" The mage stared around almost feverishly. "We'll need a LOT of cold
water...."
"Ice," Smeds suggested. "From the mountains above Khalhums. Dwarves can do
that." He glanced at Shamu, who nodded. "We're on it." The two Dwarves stepped
aside, muttering together about sledges and sawdust.
"If the wizards now in Old Valamantis realize we're trying to... quench the
blood magic, they'll move to stop us," Ka D'Argo said. "So securing the arena and a
route of access will be our job."
"And if any wizards get killed in the process..." Goblin bared his fangs, "too
bad for them."

SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of OSKSI! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes,
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. My praise to AESIR for their 4-1-0 week
this time out. Indeed, it was a skillfully fought round deserving of notice! TWITCH
caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested SAND
CRABS and was awarded 40 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable
duels, SAND CRAWLER put down DIANE MACK, causing her to lose 10 points of recognition
in the process. Not for nothing has HARALDUR in the past laid claim to the
Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet again. No
confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their position using
magical aids. Charmed weapons perhaps?
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. My inside sources tell me that the
team to beat in OSKSI these days is AESIR. At least, most blades in town are looking
to avoid them. Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent
the better part of last week avoiding AESIR. Indeed it was SIMPLY DESSERTS. Loose
talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many
fighters are after SIMEARTH. Watch your back! For some warriors honor is not
important--only empty victory. See, gladiators, how M. MOORE of THE CONFUSED
challenged down 18 points to SQUASH. The Fates are not kind to the cowardly, as
evidenced by the fact that M. MOORE was subdued by SQUASH. And who can now doubt
that SQUASH is a hardy opponent? I can not but mention with disdain the name of WOLF
SPIDER who this week posted a challenge to a warrior a full 8 points below in the
rankings. I thought WOLF SPIDER showed great skill and promise when she killed JOHN
MAHER. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? I have seen warriors die in youth. I have seen men cut down in
their prime. This week SIMPLY DESSERTS must mourn the loss of 13-7-2 SAND CRABS to
THE NUKES. The warrior's path is harsh. For mediocrity there is but one
reward--death. This past week JOHN MAHER, at 12-21-2, departed OSKSI forever. Dark
alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena there is only the
brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far off
city calling to me. I must away! Till next we meet remember: a fool flies into a
rage quickly and often. The wise are angered by the same thing only once. Zontani

DEATH FEST
The ferocious ghosts of former glories whispered across the wind swept sands of
DM 59; agonizing incessantly due to the diminutive demise of the Delarq arena known
as Illis.
Tattered banners and forgotten memories wailed in the wind for a dynamic death
march to dawn once more upon the blood stained sands of the Delarq slow arena.
The distant call crying for a declaration of restoration amidst the ruin of the
all but forgotten Delarq arena carried to the far corners of Alastari; drawing the
Devious, the Diabolical, the Dangerous and the Down Challenging to cross blades and
wage warfare among an assemblage of new stables managed by the Known and Unknown;
willing to spill fresh blood, while carving their destiny during 15 Rounds of contest
driven combat to be known as the "Illis Incredibly Diabolical Delarq Death Fest".
A lone cloaked figure huddled by lamplight in a remote outpost near the
crossroads of ElseWhere and ElseWhen; feverishly formulating the foundational
framework for the dawning of the Delarq Death Fest in DM 59, complete with
Gladiatorial Commission sanctioned prizes to promote the growing thirst for a Delarq
Slow Arena Death Festival.
Delarq Death Fest Opening Round debuts the first turn immediately following the
Summer 2004 F2F Tourney and continues through the completion of 15 consecutive
rounds.
Death Fest points are Won or Lost ONLY in the DM 59 Delarq Slow Arena [Tourneys
DO NOT Add or Subtract from the Death Fest Point Scoring System]:
Death Fest Scoring Format:
Win =3D +2 pts
Loss =3D -1 pt
Kill =3D +5 pts [in addition to +2 pts for Win]
Death =3D -3 pts [in addition to 1 pt for Loss]
Dark Arena Kill =3D +10 pts [in addition to +2 pts for Win]
Dark Arena Death =3D -5 pts [in addition to 1 pt for Loss]
Revenged Blood Feud =3D +5 pts [successful Revenged Blood Feud provides Death Fest
contestants the opportunity to cancel out 3 pts for Death and 1 pt for Loss; while
gaining +1 pt overall for the Revenged Blood Feud in addition to the +2 pts for Win]
DEATH FEST PRIZES will be awarded to the Top Ten Death Fest Stables on the basis
of Total Points*** accumulated during the 15 rounds of competition as follows:
1. Favorite Weapon Knowledge for 1 (one) warrior ranked Initiate or higher on the
Final Round to be revealed by RSI to each of the Top Ten Death Fest Stables
2. Renaming of Dark Arena Monsters and NPCs [yet to be determined according to how
many DA Monsters and NPCs are available in DM 59 for Renaming]
3. The Top Five Death Fest Stables will receive New Team Rollup Certificates as
follows: 1st (10), 2nd (8), 3rd (6), 4th (4) and 5th (2)
4. Renaming Illis Arena for 6 months plus Receiving 6 months Free Play courtesy of
RSI will be awarded to the manager of the 1st Place Death Fest Stable
5. Discussions are underway regarding a possible Special Award granted to the Illis
Iron Stable qualifiers who compete in 67 of a possible 75 fights during the course of
the 15 consecutive rounds of the Death Fest [Key Factor is How Many (?) stables will
be competing in the Death Fest without drawing away participation by current managers
in the remaining slow arenas!] Therefore, it is important for all managers entering
stables in DM 59 for the upcoming Death Fest to contact RSI as soon as possible
regarding their participation in this contest so that a Final Ruling on the proposed
Illis Iron Stable Award can be issued by RSI.
***TieBreaker is determined on the Final Round by the DM 59 Newsletter Recognition
Rankings. The stable with the Highest Ranked Active Gladiator is granted the
decision. [Example: Warrior A and Warrior B are both listed in the Recognition
Rankings with 87 pts; however, because Warrior A is listed in the Recognition
Rankings ahead of Warrior B, then Warrior A is granted the TieBreaker Decision for
His/Her stable!]
Opening Round Team Spotlight Bonus [minimum 15 paragraphs!] Each Delarq Death
Fest competitor who writes a Team Spotlight featuring their Stable (Name) and
Managerial Alias [Gladiatorial Names Optional] in regards to competing in the Delarq
Death Fest will receive 25 pts added to His/Her opening round score.
Illis Iron Stable Bonus [in addition to the proposed award awaiting RSI
approval!] Any manager whose stable competes in at least 67 of the possible 75
fights during the 15 rounds of Death Fest receives 25 points added to His/Her final
overall score [this allows each stable the cushion of missing one round of
competition; plus up to 3 additional fights due to waiting for replacement rollups
from Deaths suffered either in Tourneys or during the Death Fest contest in DM 59
over the course of 15 rounds of competition!]
