DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Poor Ed., feeling lonely. Here, I'll write this here column for you. Hey, I used
the word 'here' more than once in that sentence! At least I can write a complete
sentence. My manager says I'm not too smart...or is it I'm a moron. Oh, I can never
remember what he says. I just go out there in the middle of the arena and stand
there for a while and then some guy tells me I won and I didn't do nothing but stand
there but my manager seems happy enough and then he still calls me a dumb-dumb.
Oooh...here, kitty kitty!
<Red Fusion leaves the room in hot pursuit of a cat>
Okay, so we've heard enough from Red Fusion for a while. Whew. This is his manager,
The Muffin Man. As some of you may have guessed, Red Fusion is a scum, and while he
isn't the best I've ever managed, he's pretty decent. I'll reveal his numbers when
(and if) he graduates. He should have enough wins, arena fights, and political
points by the time this is printed, but he's still lacking in the skill department.
It could be a while, so bear with us.
The Muffin Man
SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly TRANSEL games. A new guild, SUPER HEROES, entered
TRANSEL with a clash this turn, showing off a 4-0-0 record. Indeed, a worthy
addition to the city guilds. PEGASUS caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial
commission as he skillfully bested EZRI DAX and was awarded 21 points in recognition.
In one of the week's more notable duels, PANDORA put down PEACH, causing her to lose
16 points of recognition in the process. Unwilling to wait upon the will of others,
Duelmaster RED FUSION challenged ENDYMION last week in a match to decide the fate of
the throne. Although ENDYMION made a valiant effort, it did not suffice to topple
the reign of victorious RED FUSION. Would you believe that over half of the old
women in TRANSEL seem to feel that they could fight better than you gladiators?
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 TRANSEL these days is SCIENCE FICTION. At least, most blades in town
are looking to avoid them. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard
pressed to find any of BATTLE BEASTS last week. Busy avoiding SCIENCE FICTION?
Loose talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that
many fighters are after BOEUF GRAS. Watch your back! I can not but mention with
disdain the name of BLOB who this week posted a challenge to a warrior a full 10
points below in the rankings. I thought BLOB showed great skill and promise when he
was bested by HAN SOLO. 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 must report the passing of EZRI DAX, veteran of many duels.
13-11-0 final record Hers was not illustrious--but death plays no favorites. Fate is
a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against
the victorious. Remember this!
The girls are as pretty in TRANSEL as ever I remembered them....and the fighters
as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed
a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me!
Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a
different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
