DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
No one but the Venomous Concubine to fight for the title? How unpleasantly that
reflects on the honor and prowess of the warriors of Jhelum. Well, of the gladiators
of Jhelum, at least. And yet, I can assure you that *I* have not eaten of the
infamous Dark Root. It is true, I have a death on my record, but that was the purest
of accidents. I do not seek kills, that is inefficient. The goal of the intelligent
gladiator is survival and victory. Killing one's opponent invites bloodfeud, stirs
bloodlust, and generally makes survival, not to say victory, more problematic. So
you need not fear my "desperate savagery." Challenge me and make the title of
Duelmaster meaningful again.
Sherman
SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in JHELUM this turn, and let's start
with a look at some of the teams. And let's see, MASTIFF fought GLORY and gained 20
points and contributed to DOGS OF WAR's 4-1-0. GLORY has lost to MASTIFF, falling 16
points, while helping make LEGION OF VIRTUE a 1-2-0 turn. Defending his title for
another turn, SHERMAN kept JHELUM's warrior, CONVICTED ASSASSIN, from claiming the
throne. By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night, cramped under the
table at The Welcome Wench?
I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher
friend of mine assures me this is true.
The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. Is it really true that JHELUM has
more dishwashers per capita that fighters? Just thought I'd ask...
I like this place, JHELUM, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.
Who could ask for more? Well, I'm burning daylight here in JHELUM and I've a long
road ahead of me. Happy Trails. Until you see my quill in JHELUM again, farewell--

Patience -- Well, I guess I'm honored at getting to fight a real warrior. At least

An Announcement Concerning the Brotherhood of the Blade Alliance:
I have chosen to withdraw my membership from the Brotherhood of the Blade
alliance. The years I have spent in the alliance have been the best of my DM career.
I leave the alliance with many great friends and will always remain close to my
former brethren.
The Brotherhood of the Blade will not skip a beat without my membership. It
remains in very capable hands and its roster is among the strongest in the game.
With the return on some of its founding members to DM, I know the BOB will continue
to grow in strength and prestige in the years to come. -- The Sandman
