SPY REPORT
Thankyouthankyou. It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in ZUKAL.
Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid! Hey everybody,
watch out for NOSFERATU, who flew up 17 points in the rankings after mashing VETERAN
MERCENARY like a melon. Keep your eye on this gal. And falling like a basher in the
top ten was MORAVIA MAUVE, who dropped 5 points after a disappointing (to say the
least) bout with PERSISTENT BEGGAR. Going for the gusto and coming up with aught but
bloody knuckles was BLUE MOON's BLU JON, who was turned away from the Duelmastership
by INCISOR. 4 out of 5 gladiators surveyed protect the body, so try and avoid aiming
at that location.
Here is other news that is of note. Did you hear that FANGS was most avoided
team this week? Well, knowing the personal hygiene of FANGS' warriors, I'm not
surprised! And you guys like to boo me? Well, unsling your rasberries, cause DARK
WARDS beats feet every time FANGS smiles at them. Try farming, eh? Well dang howdy,
but if challenges were votes, BLUETTE would be president. Although it may be a
contest she doesn't want to win.
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). For those of you who missed it, Death
showed up, grabbed NEWLIN by the ear and took her away to a place where she won't
need a coat. Knowing when to use the right tactics at the proper time is a very
important step on the road to Duelmaster.
I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of
you whom I have not offended yet. C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some tracks. Its been
fun, and I'm sure you enjoyed it (boos). Now that I've got you worked up for Snide
Clemens, I'll be leaving-- The Unknown Spymaster

PERSONAL ADS
Hmmm. So the Dark Wards were missing last round. So??? Did you miss us? -- The
Dark Wards
Incisor -- Take the title, see if I care. -- Ultorino, through with all this
gladiating stuff
Somehow I always figured a Roving Demon would be tougher. Oh, well. -- Blu Jon
Dentine -- Well, I always knew you were meant to be chewed on. So I did. -- Bluette
Wow! I defeated the Dangerous Criminal! -- Bleu Bonet
P.S. Guess that means I should avoid alleys for a while, hmm?
This Thief is pathetic. -- Moravia Mauve
Only five fights? THAT is pathetic. -- Jorja
Lord Protector Incisor -- I can't think of anything to offer a dental appliance,
which, as a golem, must surely be the proper description? Do you actually care
whether you get a departure gift? I could offer, perhaps, a wrist chronograph,
guaranteed reliable on sunny days if you stand very still facing south. --
