DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Whew, that was close! I thought I might take the title on a loss to a standby,
and I didn't want to do that. It would have been easy, sure, but think how it'd
look. This arena doesn't have all that much to be proud of at the moment, so...I
won. I don't think Gilbo Shortaxe (the Khalhums Dwarf) threw the fight, either. I
really lit into him.
Kerman Jones
SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of ZORPUNT! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. My praise to MEDAL OF HONOR A3 for
their 4-1-0 week this time out. Indeed, it was a skillfully fought round deserving
of notice! BABY KARLIE caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as she
skillfully bested MORLIN POOLE and was awarded 20 points in recognition. In one of
the week's more notable duels, ASH LEELA put down MITCHELL PAIGE, causing him to lose
9 points of recognition in the process. Although VETERAN MERCENARY made a valiant
effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of victorious KERMAN JONES. No
confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their position using
magical aids. Charmed weapons perhaps?
Many and various are the arts of battle. In ZORPUNT "art" is a word that has
long since passed from the language! Mighty fighters cannot but expect competition
from those below. MORLIN POOLE take warning! You have more than a few enemies in
ZORPUNT.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! 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 ZORPUNT. 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 - the pen
is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
It was, well, not a PLEASURE, but I didn't MIND losing to A Monk PI to see him GONE
from here forever. -- Travis T Flete
I wish to thank Bendiso of Osksi, Master of Kung-Fu and Other Esoteric Arts, for his
patient and fruitful instruction. -- Teri Lark
What I want to know is, does the Mayor or whoever pay the arena for training his
guards? -- Miressea Poole
DA2 -- I was going to say, Wow, a real opponent! But with a name like that...I'm not
so sure. -- Morlin Poole
P.S. If you're half an elf, what's the other half, Shewish?
I, Barkhotai, Guard and Captain of Guards, do here publicly state that I am not a
member of the Unknown Cult, have never been a member of the Unknown Cult, and have no
desire to be such. Yes, I worked with the Cult to determine a proper fate for
hostile so-called fan who was injuring gladiators (both managed and standby) by
pitching red-hot coins onto the sands during the fight, but that does NOT constitute
any commitment to or sympathy for the cult as such. Simply, they also provide
standbys and thus were among the injured parties, and they were the first to propose
a suitable fate for the troublemaker. No one else had any good suggestions to offer,
either. Embezzle his funds? Loan him money at injurious rates of interest? Please!
Reward offered! For the name or clues to the identity of the person who let Dahlak
Krag, the Captured Orc, out of the arena dungeon. Contact Arenamaster Kai.
P.S. Do you know how hard it is to capture and hold an orc these days? We can't
afford to lose ours.
The Unknown Cult is proud to announce that a public ceremony will be held in the
arena today after the fight. No membership in the cult will be assumed or implied by
attendance at this ceremony. Come one, come all, see a contractor forced to eat ten
tons of abyssal mud!
