SPY REPORT
Good day, in BONSUR a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor.
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news. Now keep the taverns open late
tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for NINJAS, whose 0-0-0 this turn dropped
them by 5 into 7th. RISE OF CHAOS stable has parlayed this turn's 3-2-0 into a 3
space move up the rankings. This brings them up to 2nd place. Good work, guys! The
PHILANTHROPISTS2 guild has had a 4-1-0 turn and deserves to be watched in the future.
You never know where this kind of thing can lead. And let's see, BLACK HAMMER fought
SPIKE WARFORGED and gained 27 points and contributed to HOWLIN SNIPES' 2-2-1.
KOOLAID has lost to JAZMO, falling 13 points, while helping make RISE OF CHAOS a
3-2-0 turn. Due to his absence and inability to defend the throne, NIGHTSHADE has
lost the title of Duelmaster. And not without some honor, LEND A HAND now claims the
title and throne of Duelmaster of BONSUR. Tell me, is nothing sacred? I have heard
from unimpeachable sources that The Warty Toad uses trolls in their stew. Talk about
gristle!
I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher
friend of mine assures me this is true. NINJAS has cause to stand tall, as they were
BONSUR's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to beat. And guess
who avoided NINJAS stable the most? Believe it or not, it was SENTINELS. Anyone
surprised? The most challenged warrior this turn was ODD SQUAD's warrior DISCO
BISCUIT. More fighters challenged him than challenged the Duelmaster!
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. Whatever bright future SPIKE WARFORGED may have had, it's all history now.
The manager of SENTINELS has lost a promising 6-1-0 warrior. A brave warrior does
not carry a red shield, he has nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over.
Consider well.
Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare
to fight bravely. It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your
swords sharp and your hammers heavy. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to
paper-- Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
We missed ads for a turn or two, but for those interested in the recently departed to
immortality:
Shan Sunguard: 13-4-17-21-9-9-11 Striker. Hosed a bit in riposte, but tremendous
damage was a nice bonus. Apparently the long spear would have been a thing, but it
was never used. Shan is now the 7th Striker to have graduated from the Sentinels,
joining in no particular order: Blueburn, Bariloche, Etugen Khan, Gannuck, Caroom,
and Yankee Rose. He is the 35th Sentinel to earn lord protector honors.
Tyler -- The nice thing about that fight is that one of us had to win. -- Cataclysm
Teutonic Terror -- I keep reading that as Techtonic, but that would be much
differently. And no, the earth didn't move for me, I just sort of fell onto it. --
Equinox
Bone Dancer -- Why would you dance with Bones? That seems odd. So I decided to nail
them down. It seemed to work. -- Spike
Lungers had 3x as many fights as any other style? That seems unbalanced.
