                                 DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
                             Notes from the arena champ.

Here I sit, covered in blood, fresh from the kill, looking down upon all your
miserable souls from atop the throne of the Arena of Death, Sunset...

It's a good feeling, I must admit.  Only thing might top it is another kill.  As long
as I'm around, any of you out there that think snuffing one of my teammates might be
something you'd like to do, better think hard about it, cause number 7's on deck.
The Old Man's taken me off the leash, if you hadn't figured that out by now.  Not
even sure what the record is for non-DA kills, but I'm guessing I'm either setting it
now or awful damn close!

I'm unfortunately... (pause while a spear tip is forcefully removed from the last
victim's forehead)... out of bloodfeud opportunities, so I guess I'll go after the TP
next.  Never liked scum.  Got one on my team, don't like him much either.  But, Boss
won't let me kill him, says leave the win-machine alone, so I'll go after the next
best thing!  Roliston, we'll see what you're made of.  If I'm worthy I'll be back
next turn.  If not, just as well, don't want to leave so soon when there's more
bloodletting to be had! I'll leave you with a quote.

'It's a helluva thing, killin' a man.  You take away all he's got, and all he's ever
gonna have...'
                                                    --Clint Eastwood, Unforgiven

Blades UP...

Molotov
Duelmaster of Sunset

                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.  
I doubt SUNSET will ever be the same.  Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for 
there are sorrows to drown for THE RED BLADES, whose 1-4-0 this turn dropped them by 
5 into 8th.  GREDAN stable has parlayed this turn's 4-1-2 into a 7 space move up the 
rankings.  This brings them up to 4th place.  Good work, guys!  The SEA DOGS guild 
has had a 3-1-0 turn and deserves to be watched in the future.  You never know where 
this kind of thing can lead.  And let's see, FATHOM JUMPER fought SARALEE JO and 
gained 23 points and contributed to SEA DOGS' 3-1-0.  MILLHAUSER has lost to KING 
TOOTNPOOTN, falling 10 points, while helping make LITERATE LOONS a 4-1-0 turn.  And 
not without some honor, SALTY now claims the title and throne of Duelmaster of 
SUNSET.  Can someone confirm a rumor for me?  I hear the top team makes their losing 
fighters do dishes at Wildlife Unlimited until they win.  Maybe?   
     The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more 
could a warrior ask of life?  Well, besides that.  GRIM FANDANGO has cause to stand 
tall, as they were SUNSET's most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this is a team 
to beat.  And avoiding GRIM FANDANGO more than any other team we find NOMADIC TRIBE.  
SUNSET, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing?  Well, sports fans, 
take notice that GRAVEN WARD from NOMADIC TRIBE was SUNSET's most challenged warrior 
this turn.  REZUREKT of GRIM FANDANGO had better have a good reason for challenging 
down 14 points in a challenge which he won.  I thought REZUREKT showed great skill 
and promise when he overcame SILVER SMURFER.  All right, so I slept through it!  Big 
deal!   
     The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.  
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed.  A brave warrior does not carry a 
red shield, he has nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over.  Consider well.   
     Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the 
sweetest.  Well, I'm burning daylight here in SUNSET and I've a long road ahead of 
me.  Happy Trails.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper-- Alarond the 
Scribe

A big bloody welcome to teams Gredan, Ominous Reign and Team Slime!  Looks like your
first turn results spanned the spectrum, not surpisingly.  Do feel free to speak up
in the personals and let us know who we're dueling and dealing (death) with!  This is

NOT a quiet, tourney timing arena!  Your first round's on us tonight post-fights down
at our long-time hangout, the storied Broken Bone tavern.  Cheers! -- Stik and Grim
Fandango

King Tootn -- A well-planned challenge on your part, but the death intent statement
at the end tells me your manager still hasn't come to grips with some realities of
the situation in the arena.  Better hope you don't get in range of the DM.... --
Wallace

Crazy Legs -- They have medication for that now, you know.  Not that it would have
helped you out any last turn. -- Rezurekt

Traumatic Paws -- Woof.  I can do better. -- Mersilus

Mussafie -- That was an entertaining one for the masses, anyway! -- Blaksunn

Stick Ninja -- I believe the term you're searching for so eloquently is "En Garde!"
However, if you wish to "unguard" when you bloodfeud, that's cool.  Easier win for
me. -- Mersilus, checking the tip of his spear...yes, it IS sharp...

Ullrich Bladesong -- Cheese louise!  If you guys wanted us to shut down our team, you
could've just ASKED. -- Ghost of Merry Leona
P.S.  Strange, I'm not listed as "dead" in the rankings, but the fight surely says I
am.  "Dead within moments," it says.  This is pretty darned weird, and also
insulting.
P.P.S.  Oh, right, I don't rate getting listed as dead even ONCE because my killer is
on his way out the door and I can't be revenged.  This comforts the heck out of me.

Millhauser -- Yeah, I know, I didn't read the book.  Sue me. -- Saralee Jo

Blaksunn -- I'm only surprised that I'm still alive. -- Mussafie

Destiny -- All I can say is, at this rate it won't take long for the team to
evaporate. -- Jonisson

We salute those who participated in the tourney, especially the Parrot Keeper and
Dave Nelso, tourney victors. -- Jorja and what's left of the Sword Opera

Molotov -- Congrats on the throne and Kill #6. -- Ben's Bazaar

Mersilus -- That was a close one I thought you were going to turn it around there for
a while. -- Traumatic Paws

Joe Mama -- I hate you. -- Stick Ninja

Wallace -- And the wall comes down. -- King Tootnpootn

Bul Goblinhewer -- Smurfy enough for ya? -- Grandaddy Smurf

Adrian -- Come on back if you want to try again. -- Silver Smurfer

Welcome to the new teams. -- Gentleben and Ben's Bazaar

Ullrich Bladesong -- Give lands to a self-admitted nomad?  Are they crazy?  Do they
think I'm crazy?  I'll get someone to pack you a lunch to take with you. -- Alamar,
Gladiatorial Lands Commissioner
