DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Pottery Worlders on the throne! Again and again and again. Golden Snitch had it, now
it is MINE! I am Fleur Delacour and I look like this:
Competed in the Tri-Wizard Tournament at Hogwarts
11-12-13-17-10-10-11 BA
+3 Init, +2 Defense, +3 Decise
poor endurance, GREAT damage
15-9-1 arena record
And now I graduate and go relax at The Isle
-- Fleur, DM
SPY REPORT
It's me, The Unknown Spymaster, back to give you this week's Spy Report. Sit
back in your seats and we'll have more fun than a barrel of Zontanis. It was a tough
week for DOGS OF WAR, to drop 5 places in the rankings. Coming up with a solid 2-1-0
outing, THE REPLACEMENTS has advanced 4 places in the rankings. Hey everybody, watch
out for SLAYBLADE, who flew up 14 points in the rankings after mashing RED CLOUD like
a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten was
EDGAR, who dropped 13 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with
DANGEROUS CRIMINAL. Well, everybody's pal FLEUR DELACOUR moved hers record to 16-9-1
by defeating TANCIK VZ 33 in the Duelmaster's Title Bout and gaining 12 recognition
points. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a day keeps T.P.s at bay.
But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!
And hey, kiddies, those of you who didn't avoid THE REPLACEMENTS, please raise you
hand. Wow. Does JHELUM really have that many liars? Okay, so I may not be funny,
but catch TANKS FOR NOTHIN''s act in the arena. Those acrobats seem to be fairly
deft at running from THE REPLACEMENTS. Well dang howdy, but if challenges were
votes, AGENT ORANGE would be president. Although it may be a contest he doesn't want
to win.
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). Ask not the elves for counsel, for they
will say both yes and no. Silly buggers, eh?
Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in JHELUM have no
sense of humor. Or maybe that they were senseless. Well, there goes another Spy
Report. Good luck in next week's fights. Hasta la bye-bye. (Loud choruses of 'Beat
it, ya bum!')-- The Unknown Spymaster
