Hopefully one of my teammates takes the throne after I leave. As with all my manager's graduates I shall be pitting my skills against the vile Dark Arena monsters. To honor and glory on the sands!!! Wizards! (Duel master of Kolact) SPY REPORT Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly KOLACT games. Did only my eyes note the 4-1-0 record which THE MOONDOGS managed to post this round? I don't doubt that such a record will draw challengers! FERRIN MONDOR caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested TREMORS and was awarded 22 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, TERRINE ORBIN put down CENSORSHIP, causing her to lose 16 points of recognition in the process. Most watched of the fights this week, the spotlight was on STONE GOLEM as he bore arms against the Dark Arena Challenge of reigning Duelmaster WIZARDS!. The crowds were amazed this turn, as STONE GOLEM killed the Duelmaster, WIZARDS!, leaving ABOMINATION in mourning. With bloody hand CRESDENE ARCT has ascended to the throne of champions. Is she that one which is spoken of in the ancient texts? Would you believe that over half of the old women in KOLACT seem to feel that they could fight better than you gladiators? But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades that is city KOLACT. KOLACT, city of gladiators! Mighty among the names of thy guilds is AVENGERS, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly duels. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to find any of THE CLUB last week. Busy avoiding AVENGERS? Mighty fighters cannot but expect competition from those below. HULK take warning! You have more than a few enemies in KOLACT. What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his foe's mortality? My hearty congratulations TROG, for thy revenge upon HULK, slayer of thy fallen comrade. Next time he will know better, eh? Some say a warrior is judged by the way he bears arms. One thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt! If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times already in KOLACT. Nice atmosphere you have here! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far off city calling to me. I must away! Till next we meet remember: a fool flies into a rage quickly and often. The wise are angered by the same thing only once.

Har har har Hulk SMASH!! -- Hulk Chase -- Thanks for the tidings, but I fear we're not here by choice. -- Cap. Sorry, everyone, but Black Knight and I are headed back to Earth, at least if the Beyonder's deal is as it was 25 years ago. I miss Hank! -- Wasp Ashur -- Do I really LOOK like I've much to teach!?! Oh. Uh, my condolences to the other A-Bombs. That tends to make Bruce... err... the Hulk angry. You wouldn't like him when he's angry. -- Wasp Cresdene Arct -- Thanks for the throne before I go into retirement. -- Wizards! Captain America -- I guess the Graet Axe was overkill. -- (Fat Girl) Thong...err Trog Hulk -- What the hell, man? I was just getting started. -- Ghost of Ashur Avengers and Hulk -- Vengeance shall be had. Who do you think you are? You will learn the price for killing my warriors. PREPARE FOR BLOOD!!! -- Chase (mgr of Abomination) Wow, eight teams here, and seven of them active! Things are looking up. -- Jorja Wizards! -- I'd say dump it. Spears have their uses, but they're seriously inconvenient in social situations, whereas no one looks twice at a sword. Until you whack 'em, of course. -- Lia Hobern Caprica -- It's a trick I'm working on. Not easy, and I'm not sure I can repeat it on demand, but I am working on it. -- Ferrin Mondor Looking at the mini-overviews, it seems to me that all of us but Terrine should graduate. It must be political points that's holding us back. -- the so-popular Cresdene and Lia, speaking for the Moondogs Wizards! -- We congratulate you whole-heartedly. -- the Moondogs Wizards! -- Go for it! Better you to write the column than me. -- Cresdene Arct P.S. But I made you fight for it. Flatliners -- Definitely too greasy. I'm glad you're leaving. -- Lunelle Merrin P.S. When were you last in the bathtub? Did you let the "formidable foes" keep you away from it? Footloose -- Loose in too many ways. Keep your hands on your sword next time. -- Lia Hobern Tremors -- I find it unnerving to face someone whose hands are shaking that badly. It makes me fear for your accuracy... and my physical integrity. -- Ferrin Mondor Wild Things -- Being a Friend of Wildlife, I was at a handicap against you. Not to mention the difference in experience. The handicapper must really be mad at me. -- Terrine Orbin LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS WIZARDS! was viciously butchered by STONE GOLEM in a 3 minute Dark Arena fight.
