Two hundred yards long and a hundred yards wide, and they stood at the midpoint of one side and looked across to the battered, dark-stoned hulk of the Old Valamantis arena on the other. At the end to their left was a vast building--or the remains of it--that had the layered foundation of an edifice built on the remains of many previous ones. Basalt, marble, sandstone, granite, porphyry. "The growth rings of the old city," Tensekai, the Silver Mage muttered. "Which is the Folstrom layer?" Ka D'Argo of Kolact asked. "The oldest. The bottom one--black basalt," the mage answered. "The old city was founded by the Folstrom. They laid out the ground plan and built the walls. That," a twitch of his head to the left, "was their main...temple, although we don't think they worshipped in the same sense we do now. There at the other end--" a forest of columns of many different stones, skillfully carved to look like different species of trees, closed off the right end of the Forum, "that was their Grove of Sacrifice." The gladiators looked one way, to the temple, the other way to the stone grove, and then across at the arena. The lower arcade was of black basalt. "So the arena was theirs, too." Sputter of Dwes Eg hunched his shoulders uneasily. "Were the Bloodgames their idea?" Tensekai glanced at him, startled. "I don't know, I never questioned that it was Sheila of the Grey Wand who came up with that." After a moment, he grimaced. "She lived then, or near to then, and might have borrowed the idea from them." "So she's using blood magic, too, eh?" Goblin licked his lips and took a step forward. "So much for her high-and-mighty attitude, then! Not that I'm complaining, mind you." "I have heard it said that Sheila of the Grey Wand would use ANY means to protect Alastari," Tensekai muttered. "But it never occurred to me that the Bloodgames might be part of her magical defense...." The thought appeared to make him uneasy. "We won't get anything done standing around here," Goblin called back over his shoulder. I thought you were all eager to establish a magical perimeter inside the arena. Let's do it!" "Right," Sputter said. He stepped forward to follow Goblin. "You know, I really don't want to go over there." "Me neither!" Lavender Lance took Tensekai's arm. "But we have it to do, right?" The gladiators straggled out onto the Forum's cracked pavement. Goblin was in the lead; Ka D'Argo brought up the rear, facing backwards with his sword drawn. None of them felt comfortable with the fact that they'd gotten this far without being stopped. After a few minutes, Sputter glanced around and then at Tensekai. "Why aren't we hearing anything? No birds or mice, okay, I wouldn't want to hang out here either, if I was a bird or a mouse. But not even any wind!" The mage's eyes were blank with concentration, and he didn't answer. "It's a trap," Ka D'Argo said quietly. "The whole city, but especially the arena, is a trap for anyone who ventures in without the permission of..." he gestured at the ruins around the Forum, "whoever's there. But we have to do it anyway. Some traps can only be destroyed from the inside." Lavender Lance burst into tears. "I don't want to be trapped by...by liches or whatever they are!" But she kept walking toward the arena. No one tried to stop them. This unexpected fact brought all of them to agreement with the Kolactan's assessment that the arena was a trap. And a very unpleasant one. Once they were inside the walls, and especially as they descended the dark corridor toward the sunken fighting floor, the smell of the place grew stronger. It stank of blood and death and decay, with a sulfurous undertone that none of them could identify. Until they stepped out onto the sands, under a dome of crimson light, and saw the demonic creature waiting for them. And heard the iron bars clash into position behind them to prevent an exit. * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * ---===DELARQUAN REGIONAL NEWS===--- Duelmasters ----------- DM 1 MORDANT (turn 501): JEJUNE of MANNEQUIN'S BEST (Mannequin, mgr.)

A little shin dig in Memphis got in the way. Well, it has been a while since the last footballer held the throne here. Last time, it was a sandbagger, but I on the other hand, am a real warrior, after all, who in their right mind would try and would try to sandbag a lunger who doesn't actually have the wit to use a longsword. I suspect, barring any surprises, that the team here will only be active for a few more turns, then life gets busy for our manager again, and he has to stop playing fast arenas for the fall/winter months. Meanwhile, I am going to do my darndest to try and defend this throne for as long as I am here. I'm sad to report that the only Footballer to try and sing in Graceland struck a sour note and returned home winless to start his dueling career here. Peschisolido Imported Footballers This turn's column: Oh, hey! I'm the Dueltooess! Neat! Nick didn't notice and was going to just go with the personals, but Sam spotted it, so I get to write you a column. So what shall I say? I guess I'm supposed to tell you how good I am? I'm great! You won't find a better towel anywhere, although you MIGHT find some almost as good. One hundred percent cotton, of course, thick and fluffy. And colorful-- that's important. I'm not just some plain old solid color towel! Stripes in lots of colors, mostly yellow, and splashy red flowers, that's me. Terri Towel The real thing in beach towels SPY REPORT If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of BONSUR brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. Later days, FLOWER CHILDREN, since BEACH BABES took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for FLOWER CHILDREN, whose 1-1-0 this turn dropped them by 5 into 6th. Ha! BLADES OF ICE turned their 4-0-0 turn into a 2nd place rank in the listings this turn. Any better than this, and you get put on hit lists. Gee, I'm impressed, a 3-1-0 is nice, but don't get cocky, WASTELAND II, the Fates teach humility, and the Fates are proud. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see GOKU win a fight and gain 15 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, CONVICTED ASSASSIN beat TASTY HANGNAIL and TASTY HANGNAIL lost 23 points. You're breakin' my heart. Looks like BONSUR has some guts at least, TERRI TOWEL the Duelmaster was this turn's most-challenged warrior. GINGER challenged BONSUR's Duelmaster for a shot at the throne. And it's out with the old, in with the new, as GINGER takes the Title and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster. Heh, heh. Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how else do you think some of these guys win their fights? Skill? Ha! Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys. BATHTUB ARMADA, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were this turn's most avoided team. Care to know who is the most afraid of you? And who led the way in this mass act of cowardice? Let's see, well, whatcha know? It was WASTELAND II. Ha ha ha ha! Now look at this. GO ASAI challenged down 18 against FLOWER CHILDREN's KERFUFFLE. What a weasel! Ha ha aha ha aha ha!!! GO ASAI was was beat by by FLOWER CHILDREN's warrior! Thank the gods for big favors! ha! Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for BONSUR's morgue. More variety. And sending FLIBBERGIBBET to the Dark Arena was supposed to be one of your better ideas, FLOWER CHILDREN? It's about time HUGGER got beat for picking on warriors like ANZAI MURO. Bravo, NINJAS. See you at The Warty Toad. Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use. Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one. What does the BONSUR arena have in common with the inns? It's just as comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Phlllt! Just had to do that before I leave the fine city of BONSUR. I feel much better now. I see the crowds are getting restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME GINGER 5518 18 7 0 114 SUGAR AND SPICE (501) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -KEARSARGE 5444 8 0 2 116 BATHTUB ARMADA (515) ZOOM ZOOM 5259 12 11 0 110 ERRATA (511) -PROHIBITION 5246 10 8 0 110 INDIFFERENCE (468) -GARAI 4608 19 11 0 98 BLADES OF ICE (188) TERRI TOWEL 5306 21 23 1 93 BEACH BABES (309) TALLAHASSE TINA 4889 14 50 0 92 BEACH BABES (309) ARSENAL 4861 12 10 2 92 BLADES OF ICE (188) -PESCHISOLIDO 3999 13 12 0 91 IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS (396) -DEAD POET 5562 11 2 0 91 FLOWER CHILDREN (26) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME OHMIE 2607 21 15 1 89 THE CUTTHROATS (191) -GROOVE THANG 5474 10 9 0 75 FLOWER CHILDREN (26) TASTY HANGNAIL 5463 18 12 0 72 WASTELAND II (267) -DILL WEED 5241 8 2 0 72 SUGAR AND SPICE (501) -MICRO MIRACLE 5236 11 8 0 71 WASTELAND II (267) -BARTEZ 4732 9 8 0 68 IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS (396) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -KILLING JOKE 5125 11 9 1 66 INDIFFERENCE (468) -HOT STUFF 5568 5 7 1 60 THE BEARS II (510) ANZAI MURO 5594 9 5 0 59 NINJAS (35) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MY BIG TOE 5601 6 6 0 55 WASTELAND II (267) -LORE 5196 5 9 0 55 ETERNAL REST (505) BENDER 5516 8 2 1 53 BLADES OF ICE (188) -HENRI 5062 5 3 0 49 IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS (396) GOKU 5628 5 2 0 47 WASTELAND II (267) -BROUHAHA 5657 3 0 0 47 FLOWER CHILDREN (26) THYME 5563 10 8 2 46 SUGAR AND SPICE (501) -LAST CALL 5360 8 6 0 41 INDIFFERENCE (468) NUMBER 3 5552 4 5 0 40 BLADES OF ICE (188) HUGGER 5573 5 4 1 37 THE BEARS II (510) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SPEARMINT 5618 5 7 1 31 SUGAR AND SPICE (501) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME UMBRELLA MAN 5600 6 10 0 28 BEACH BABES (309) -ROGUE 5263 4 7 0 26 ERRATA (511) -WALLET 5260 4 4 0 25 ERRATA (511) -SOLSKJAER 5477 4 2 1 24 IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS (396) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME DANCING COWBOYS 5425 2 5 0 23 HATE (519) MAJOR ANGER 5676 2 0 0 23 WASTELAND II (267) CHURCH TONGUE 5578 5 0 0 22 BLADES OF ICE (188) PALM BEACH PET 5641 4 3 0 22 BEACH BABES (309) KERFUFFLE 5659 2 2 0 21 FLOWER CHILDREN (26) GO ASAI 5627 5 5 0 20 NINJAS (35) -BUCK TOOTH 5651 2 1 0 18 EAGER BEAVERS (532) -WOOD CHUCK 5649 2 2 0 17 EAGER BEAVERS (532) PALE RIDER 5637 2 3 0 13 THE BEARS II (510) SERENDIPITY 5634 0 6 0 10 BATHTUB ARMADA (515) -PIRES 5665 1 0 0 7 IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS (396) PAPRIKA 5672 1 1 0 6 SUGAR AND SPICE (501) -TWO HEADED WOMEN 5437 1 2 0 5 HATE (519) LAGUNA LIL 5681 0 1 0 1 BEACH BABES (309) SIEW PENG 5677 0 1 0 1 NINJAS (35) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.

The occurrence of the Face to Face, though I don't go to it, always disrupts my schedule. We'll try to make it up to you, though. -- Nick, Beach Babes As if HE cares! Was it NICK who nursed the vins and fed the Babes? Was it NICK who held the parties at the cabana and consoled the Babes when the sun didn't shine? Was it NICK who sorted things out when the Man Next Door complained about the noise? Was it-- Oh, all right. It WAS Nick who paid the bills, but still! -- Surfer Sam P.S. I don't know that I care for this commuting. I mean, it's all well and good to see new places, and the Babes in Riztab are fine girls, but to spend days on the Shuttle (shudder) going back and forth...I could do without that. Peschisolido -- What does that mean? Solid fish? Ick. And besides that, you're a little golem. Little golems give me the creeps. I mean, they might be up to anything! You can't tell. Well, *I* can't tell. -- Terri Towel P.S. Sorry about snapping my towel in your face there at the end, it was just one of those irresistible impulses. You know. Or maybe you don't? Do golems have irresistible impulses? Dill Weed -- That's what happens to weeds. You sneak into a garden and put down roots, and someone comes along with a hoe, and...pow, or words to that effect. -- Tallhasse Tina P.S. Why not go make pickles instead? Solskjaer -- What a weird name, so foreign! It's, you know, not Bonsurian, and that makes me feel funny about you. I mean, I don't hate you, even if you DID beat me up which is not a thing a gentleman would do, but it's just, you know, weird. -- Palm Beach Pet Kerfuffle -- What kind of tough, he-man gladiator has a name like that? It's... wimpy. Wussy. Appropriate. -- Umbrella Man, used to standing around in the sun 17 July 2004 I am currently trying to put together a favorites chart for AD warriors. I desperately need help with this. What I need are style, favorite rhythm (ex.: hi/low), favorite weapons, and tactics. What would be great is if you could send me a copy of the invite with the warrior's name, id#, and arena blacked out. This way, I can verify that this is an actual warrior. Minis will work, too! For those interested, I have both a challenge style vs. style and a match-up style vs. style chart. There's about 250 fights calculated in these charts, and I'll be happy to send a copy to anyone who asks. You can contact me (if you're a free world player) at: Rick Stringer, Merit/East, SCI, P.O. Box 500, Georgetown, DE 19947-0500. If you're in prison, just send a diplo to: Baphomet, Mgr. Knights Templar (568), DM #47--North Fork. (I also have a lot of other charts and info for anyone who wants it.) Thanks! 30 July 2004 The total number of fights calculated was reported as 250 fights. This is a misprint. It should have read "over 2,500 fights." -- Baphomet LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS FLIBBERGIBBET was barely slain by MOUNTAIN TROLL in a 1 minute Dark Arena fight.
