DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
As much as this warrior loves the Pixies, I'll skip reciting any "No 13 Baby" lyrics
to my fellow warriors.
After sending the latest version of "P1x3lbent" to the DA, I think CROM may have found
favor with my Band of the Hand and sent us a promising sparkplug of a duelist. Please
welcome "Command X" to the sands. She should provide at least some entertainment.
Nice to see the new faces these last few turns -- What I Said seems to like to play
rough. Noted. Always up for a good BF, need to try and catch up some -- only 10 kills
in 687 scraps. At their pace, What I Said will surpass 10 kills after 3 more turns.
Yipes, better get my head on a swivel. Or a Lazy Susan. Whatever.
Until next time,
-- Bokeh (She, her, hers)
SPY REPORT
Welcome back, my darlings! I count it a joy when I get to come to the arena and see
all of you wonderful people! The gods were gracious to us today and gave us beautiful
weather for our event. I do hope you enjoyed the sights, the sounds, and even the
smells of fight day. I prefer to stay near the west side of the arena before the
games begin. You can enjoy the aroma of fresh-baked bread. It certainly beats the
smell of the gladiator pens as our warriors prepare for the day's festivities. Okay,
time to see what happened in Seam today!
What an impressive run Bokeh has had the last 13 turns. If my records are correct, he
has not lost a fight since February! Yes, that is quite an extraordinary streak, and
it has paid off with multiple turns on the throne, and now an invitation to
immortality! Congrats to our Duelmaster and newest Lord Protector Bokeh! The more
experienced Chip challenged for the title, but it did not appear to be a close fight
with Bokeh keeping the throne in a 2-minute mismatched bout. Congrats to Bokeh once
again on the throne and graduation.
Way of All Flesh gets to celebrate being the most avoided team. Darque Knights
scurried away at the mere mention of Manray's crew. It doesn't look like the avoiding
helped as Darque Knights post an 0-5 turn. On the flipside of their failure, Hero's
Inc had a nice 5-0 effort that awarded them the Team on the Move award and placed them
in the top 5 over the last three turns. I am still not sure if this is a distinction
to be lauded or laughed at, but Captain Obvious is this turn's most challenged
gladiator. It really didn't matter much because the captain blood feuded Hollow and
won in 6-minutes.
Shockingly, there are no deaths to report. A few blood feuds were issued, and both
avengers were successful in their attempts. It looks as if What I Said's opportunity
to avenge their fallen warrior, Whatever, expires next turn. Will they even make an
effort against Yuto? We will wait and see! More than a few teams have gone inactive,
so maybe we need to send out a search party. Or, we can recruit some new teams to the
arena to fill the void. What say you?
It is time to draw it all to a close now, my sweets! How will next turn's drama play
out? Will we have carry-over drama from this turn into the next with bad blood and
blood feuds? We can certainly hope! It makes for some interesting gladiatorial
games. Personal ads! Personal ads! Personal ads! Just a little reminder for some of
you quieter managers. Take care until next time!

Riva -- Well, that was an unfortunate match up. -- Suicide Mission
Landlord -- They're kind of whiny in this arena, eh? -- Weirdo
Poor showing last turn and somehow my lunger ended up going to the arena with a war
hammer..sigh. Anyway, I was looking at a bunch of roll up I did at the face and I have
this PR I made with a decent luck factor but sub par stats. 11-13-7-13-13-11-16 I'm
not sure how you read the wit statements but it looks like this one got a decent bump
in attack from baseline and also got rip and Def statements as well as good
endurance which according to the Terrablood chart was only a 10% chance.. the rest of
the team is trash but im thinking about running this guy for shits and giggles. Any
advice on how painful a process I'm looking at here? -- Eli
