Delarquan Edition
Old Valamantis:
The Old Forum of the ruins was empty of people, though strewn with bits of
rubble and random bushes. 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.

SPY REPORT
Much has changed in KOLACT since last I was here. Never fear, Olaf Modeen
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters. Bein' on top is great
while it lasts, BLOODSHED. But how many friends do you have now? Up 'n down. Up 'n
down. Rankings always change. Up 'n down. I think I'm gonna be... Well, DEVIL'S
ADVOCATE's 10th moved them up to 3-1-0 place. SIR AGLIO showed KOLACT what they were
made of as they fought with a vengeance to walk off with 4-1-0. What's with BAILEY
O'BEAD? He actually beat SIR AGLIO's SIR OCCO, and walked away with 24 more points
from the fight. Major screwup at DEVIL'S ADVOCATE. DANTAVIUS lost 13 points to SIR
PRISE. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe DANTAVIUS will provide more easy wins...
PAPPY WHAPPY was reminded on the sands why SIR PENT is Duelmaster. Advice to
fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... KOLACT thinks DEVIL'S
ADVOCATE and their 46-27-2 is too much! If at first you don't succeed, give up...
In my day, no team with a 43-26-2 would scare me off! What's the problem, SIR AGLIO?
How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior, DROC! Don't make
idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you. OCTAVIAN expects the easy win by going
29 points down. QAEDA, AL will find this a hard lesson! OCTAVIAN overcame QAEDA,
AL. PRAETORIAN GUARD calls this fighting? In my day... Taunt your opponent SUGAR
MAGNOLIA! That was my lucky charm when I was unfairly challenged. (and by 16
points!) KAIZAR should have an easy win. KAIZAR's gonna be practicin' hard this
week, after SUGAR MAGNOLIA, lower ranked by far, mashed him!
A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters
don't accept this. The best do. CHOBOJA SAMURAI, with his forgettable 7-8-2, was
dealt death by WOLFRAVEN in a forgettable match. THUNDERSTRIKERS didn't seem to mind
very much. WOLFRAVEN of CLAN BATTLEAXE has spared CHOBOJA SAMURAI from the boredom
of a warrior's retirement... But I doubt THUNDERSTRIKERS is grateful. MAL ADY was
plum wore out after RUN ABOUT RON pounded 'im silly in a Bloodfeud. BLOODSHED'll
have to get a little better before going after RUN ABOUT RON again! How long have I
been here? I got people to see, places to go...
Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt.
All work and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter. Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.
Olaffighterwork and no play. Time for my medication, so I'll leave now. Practice,
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Octavian -- You still need to downchallange to get a victory? How sad.
Kosika -- Special is as special does. The whole of the guildhouse feels...a real
relief infusion. <*ahem* watch the lace> Everyone co-mingling and partying around
like yesterday's business, you would have thought they had never seen a bloodfeud
avenged before. Well, it was my first, your honor. "Never to be forgot" as Gracie
so quaintly and eloquently put it. -- Lady Divan
Assur... -- Well called, fun waiting period, and you "made good." -- Still
Sultan -- How's the journey? (which makes you the Journeyer) We had a "snake-in-the-
grass" themed party for your duelmaster Sir Pent. You wouldn't've believed the hors
d'oeuvres. -- Still
P.S. Where's those postcards?
St Stephen -- Did that really happen? It did! ...well...then...okay, Whoooo's
Next!?! Ya, that's me Talkin. Little Ron'z found his little Weapon (I hope) and
started Terrorizing the arena. Bring em on, Briiiing em on...I'll fight em
Blindfolded. I'll fight em with one foot ina Bucket and one foot ina grave. (hey,
that's kinda catchy) Fearless, Freewheeling and Frrrrightening. -- Run About Ron
Sir Ingomyelic -- I think Ron's campaign a terror needs to look into the style mirror
...Frrrrightening?!? They's lots a descriptions a Ron an his kind..."Freewheeling"
I'll buy, wouldn't be in the biz they is if they weren't. And "Fearless" sure n'
okay, also goes with the turf...atom-quantumizers they ain't known as. But, then...
that last one. (too much) S'not polite to laugh at one's stable-mates, how-some-
ever, his proclamations is bringin down the guildhouse. Make's my job a snap. --
Gracie
Springborn -- Sorry about Petunia being deflowered. She kinda tripped on my weapon.
-- Mal Ady
Cup O'Pizza -- I find the very concept appalling, especially when considered in
conjunction with a bathtub. Surely you don't drink your, er, 'cup' in the tub? That
would, however, tend to engender truly formidable monsters. Why, the monsters I've
seen after a mere slice of anchovy-and-olive pizza have been horrendous! I shall be
sure to avoid the bathhouse when you are taking your perverse refreshment there. --
Tycho
Wolfraven -- Yeah, well, what *I* think is perverse is the whole idea of combining a
wolf and a raven. Talk about a scary monster! I want no part of you! -- Trojan Roc
Sir Prise -- Not terribly, alas. -- Bailey O'Bead
Latvius -- You didn't stick around long. With a one-shotter like that, the
arenamaster is likely to get disgusted with the turn the battle has taken, not to
mention the fans being bored. We've got to have more drama out there. -- Lunelle
Palavius -- Good drama, hmm? -- Mickey Mite
Run About Ron -- Or mine either. How'm I going to make friends if every time I meet
someone it ends up in a fight, eh? -- Trojan Roc
Assur -- (bowing) -- Lunelle and Tycho
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!
