DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Greeting Riztab!
My Riztab finale is here and Sleepy is giving me a shot at the night fight. With a
little luck I'll be buying a round of drinks at the local tavern after the fight.
Without a little luck, I'll be able to explain how it feels to receive a resurrection
potion! The hat trick of holding the throne is nice, but Heraclitus had to go and
point out that Sweet Betsey has been most popular for 15 straight. I suspect she'll
be getting a title fight shot again real soon.
Apologies to Cults-R-Us as their opportunity to bloodfeud is ending a couple turns
early.
Congrats to all those who represented Riztab well in the tourney!
Sleep well,
Parmenides
SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! Nothing is certain in RIZTAB, with changing loyalties, changing
Duelmasters. Write this down: new top team--SWEET MAGIC. Practice pays for
TIDDLES, who pummelled CORIANELLE, to pocket 14 points. A certain someone should cut
down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 7 points to SWEET BETSEY.
(Discrete enough, DEMOCRITUS?) Well, Duelmaster PARMENIDES Dark Arena Challenged DARK
ARENA's SHISHZAR THE SNAKE. Is a 16-10-1 good enough? The crowds were amazed this
turn, as SHISHZAR THE SNAKE killed the Duelmaster, PARMENIDES, leaving DREAMERS in
mourning. The audience got their money's worth, as they witnessed HERACLITUS attain
the throne at the cost of PARMENIDES' life! So who was the warrior seen charging
into immovable walls and challenging dead trees? Someone's got a basic problem...
So much to report, so little time! Perhaps the warriors of DREAMERS should take
up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided team... As a woman of good breeding
scorns the "warriors" of THE SQUARE TABLE, so did that sorry team shy from DREAMERS
Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and CARLOTTA is it right now. Most
challenged warrior. Isn't SWEET MAGIC proud!
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... How true is
CULTS-R-US' mettle? Just one week remains for the avenging of MADAM Y's death.
Questions are being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena. A
certain tavern in RIZTAB would I avoid!
Leave me now, you base fools! Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards fat!
RIZTAB, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Welcome
Wench. 'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Corianelle -- I love those back-n-forth contests. Like em a lot more when I
win...but that was entertaining. -- Tiddles
Tiannary -- It is an exacting business. <grin> -- Repulsive Rogan
Parmenides -- Whittled me down pretty good. Maybe I'll be back, maybe not. -- Marlow
Pythagorus -- They've refreshed the sand since out last encounter. It tastes...the
sea? -- Billy
Heraclitus -- Note to self: do NOT take up philosophy. Of any kind. -- Tariliss,
more of a here-and-now person
Democritus -- This is a bad time of year for you, is it not? When the pluto-
oligarchs compete for high position. Maybe I should say, a bad time in the four-year
cycle. -- Sweet Betsey, glad to have the win regardless
Repulsive Rogan -- (recoiling) I keep forgetting just HOW repulsive you are in
person. Assuring myself, so to speak, that I have magnified your annoying aspects in
my memory. But it isn't so. -- Tiannary
Tiddles -- I cannot help but feel that your whole attitude is too light-hearted.
This is, after all, a life-and-death sport we engage in. -- Corianelle
P.S. Not that the fans seem to care.
Sir Getalot -- Perhaps, but not EVERY day, you know. Some days, the Lotta gets you.
-- Carlotta
Molly! Was it something we said? -- Tariliss and the rest of Sweet Magic
Repulsive Rogan -- That is a fake finger, a snare for the nasty-minded attacker to
keep him busy while I remove his innards. -- Corianelle
Tiddles -- No, that's true. Why would I want to say it? -- Tiannary
Our congratulations to Parmenides. -- Jorja and Sweet Magic
