DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
You slipped up, Through the Window! I won, but I also got a skill off you. Of
course, you were supposed to get a skill, too. Next time, pay attention.
Blue Streak
SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of ZUKAL! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes,
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. DEBARROWS caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested BICYCLE RACE and was awarded 25
points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, DEBARROWS put down
BICYCLE RACE, causing him to lose 21 points of recognition in the process. Who here
was not present for the title fight this week as GLINDORA boldly challenged BLUE
STREAK in order to strive for the Duelmasters honors? The city has turned out in
honor of GLINDORA, for with hers arena victory she may now lay claim to the highest
position in the city! Would you believe that over half of the old women in ZUKAL
seem to feel that they could fight better than you gladiators?
Many and various are the arts of battle. In ZUKAL "art" is a word that has long
since passed from the language! ZUKAL, city of gladiators! Mighty among the names
of thy guilds is CRIMSON DEATH, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly
duels. Apparently the stalwarts of PAPERBOYS are catching the bulk of jests down at
the challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Mighty fighters cannot
but expect competition from those below. MIDNIGHT take warning! You have more than
a few enemies in ZUKAL. A match that raised a few eyebrows at the games this week,
it seems that ATHOS posted a challenge against the more highly recognized BLUE FUNK.
The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand ATHOS subdued BLUE FUNK. Remember
warriors, this is the discipline of steel.
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? 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 ZUKAL 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: a fool flies into a rage quickly and often. The wise
are angered by the same thing only once. Zontani Sharp Eyes
