DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Strictly speaking, I'm not the duelmistress here today. But I defeated the
duelmaster of last turn, and I see no reason why my formal retirement should prevent
me writing this. You know what they say: It's a dirty job, but someone's got to do
it.
So, it was a good fight, L.T. Jeebus, the kind I like: I won. We don't keep
back fights or such extensive notes as to tell me whether that is your normal armor
and weapons, but ye gods, man, are you suicidal? I don't even see this as tourney
timing, since you did actually fight. Listen, I think you're a weird person, but I'd
say this to any gladiator: Armor is your friend!
Pensacolita
P.S. I'll tell you what else is a surprise, I've been running darned near my
favorites all along! Shortspear, moderate/high. What the heck, it works.
P.P.S. I note (Jorja's to blase' to notice) that with my graduation this is now
another team with all ten styles on the Isle. Not that I plan on going to the Isle;
I've got some serious research to do here on the variations of smash.
SPY REPORT
Welcome BONSUR. I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights have
I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Bein' on top is great while
it lasts, SENTINELS. But how many friends do you have now? What's with HIDA YAKAMO?
He actually beat SENTINELS' TOM THE LION, and walked away with 25 more points from
the fight. Major screwup at SENTINELS. EPEE MYSTIQUE lost 12 points to WHOLLY
MOLLY. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe EPEE MYSTIQUE will provide more easy
wins... I'm sure BONSUR is excited about HIDA YAKAMO, the new Duelmaster from CALL
TO THUNDER. (remember?) But when you've seen as many as I have... Wouldn't it be
nice to have live subjects to practice on? I hear some team is looking into the uses
of convicted prisoners.
If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports. The
most avoided team was SENTINELS. Management must be dealin', as the boys at AMEN!
ain't reelin'! SENTINELS' mad! What do people see in NEANDERTHAL? His 21-23-0?
SENTINELS ain't talkin', but he's got 96 points.
Warriors of BONSUR unite. You have only your games to lose! Many a warrior has
met his fate in a hungover stupor. You young rapscallions, take note!
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. BONSUR is
a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. Remember--a good
fighter needs both good skills and good luck. Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Jeebey -- It looks like the title is up for grabs. I'll fight yah for it! --
Neanderthal
Wholly Molly -- Hmmm...the parry does seem to be improving! And I kinda like the
armor. Dents in the armor don't hurt anywhere near as badly as dents in the ol'
hide. -- Epee
Pensacolita -- There are curious minds.... -- Neanderthal
Rose -- I do appreciate the win, but what am I doing way up here already! -- Tom Cat
Patty -- I think Tom already had this "you have too much experience for me"
conversation. But the truly sad part is that you don't seem to teach well enough to
make the whole getting-my-butt-kicked thing worthwhile. Perhaps you could offer to
teach me something else at the Cabana? -- Hieronymus, eager to be a good student
Sister Sinister -- Ah, a lefty, are you? Figures. Tricky people, lefties. I've
often noticed it. -- Saltilla
Tom the Lion -- And indeed you're a lion of a man. After the workout you gave me,
that "several days bedrest" was welcome. -- Rose o' the Reef
Hieronymus Zigg -- Gosh, have you been a golem all along, or did it come as a
surprise to you? I've heard that lots of gladiators didn't realize they were golems
until the Commission did their pre-induction physicals and told 'em so, and not in a
sensitive, compassionate manner, either. -- Palmetta Patty
P.S. Your golemness isn't obvious. You seem like quite an ordinary guy, at first.
Speaking of golems, I don't think there's every been a time when anyone doubted that
the Andorian Noble, aka Robo Hero Mark V, was a golem. Oh, sure, they try to put a
good face on it, give it a gender and a, well, a face that isn't bad, if you like
generic. But cheese louise, the bolts show. -- Little Venus
Double Ordealers -- Good to see you back. Who's managing? Still, Applejack,
Jondeaux, someone else? -- Jorja
Baldassare -- Well, of course! I'm a dangerous woman. It's my thing, you know? And
something really special in the way of body oils. -- Little Venus
Rondo the Black -- Well, of COURSE you can come to the party, and I will personally
see to it that you get totally smashed. -- Pensacolita
Epee -- Wow, you're not just a tin can after all! Don't let it go to your head. --
Molly
Neanderthal -- You and me now, mate. Don't be gettin' nervous and takin' the wrong
armor again, okay? -- Jeebus
Jax'n Curr -- "Overpower" you? You do realize I am a nun, don't you? The only thing
I'm allowed to 'overpower' you with is love for your lord and savior. That, and the
business end of a shortsword. -- Sister Sinister
