DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
You see how it goes, Pat? I had the style advantage, and I end up with the
title. Not because I'm a golem--and believe me when I say that the Commission's
determination that I'm a golem came as a shock. I have heard people say that golems,
um, "us" golems, are supposed to be superior for some one task. Maybe so, but nobody
tells you ahead of time what that task IS. I knew one golem-guy, he went round and
round with various people, and it finally turned out he was designed to be a can
opener! Fat lot of good that does, when cans haven't been invented yet!
Well, enough rambling, this'll do for a column.
Good fight, Pat Riside.
Timor Unred
SPY REPORT
Good day, in XOCHITHLAN a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets
poor. So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news. It seems the training can
make the difference, as THE MIDDLE WAY is pushed out of top team by PROPHETIC OMENS,
who came from 2nd with a 4-1-0 this turn. And let's see, RIPPLE CAUSER fought UDARN
VOYL and gained 25 points and contributed to PROPHETIC OMENS' 4-1-0. UDARN VOYL has
lost to RIPPLE CAUSER, falling 22 points, while helping make THE MIDDLE WAY a 2-2-0
turn. Defending his title for another turn, TIMOR UNRED kept XOCHITHLAN's warrior,
ELITE ASSASSIN, from claiming the throne. Can someone confirm a rumor for me? I
hear the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Swinging Aardvark
until they win. Maybe?
I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher
friend of mine assures me this is true. The most challenged warrior this turn was
DINO SORES!'s warrior STEG-O-SORE. More fighters challenged her than challenged the
Duelmaster!
We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and
shave it close? We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their
enemies. You know who you are; and it's considered rude.
Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare
to fight bravely. Always good to rest in XOCHITHLAN, but never good to wear out my
welcome. Look for me in future turns. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to
paper-- Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
Zingalo Aak -- I saw your mouth open and you saying Aak and naturally assumed you
wanted me to perform some dental work. How was I to know that you were trying to
introduce yourself? -- Crator's Cause
T-Wrecks -- In the area I grew up in, if you had a cyst or infestation of some kind
(prehistoric or otherwise), you lanced it. Especially any type of T-virus. We all
know what that will turn you into. -- Ripple Causer
Bob -- Did you really think you could get a handle on me? I'm full of dashes and
dots. You know, like you probably saw right at the end of your age. -- Swirls and
Arcs
Terror-Dactyl -- If only the tide had held just a little longer, but alas, I faded.
-- Misty Form
Tank-Losarus -- I just didn't have it in me that time. Just one more step toward
catastrophe! You must be hoping for a polar shift. -- World Brink
Aren't we having one?
They tell me I fought Ellanseis the Wonderful, Elite Assassin. I didn't care for the
experience. -- Quita Rosala
The Captured Nomad is a golem? This whole "it must be a golem" business is getting
out of hand. -- Fallon Grimm
It didn't do the Rirorni Horseman the least bit of good to try to bring his horse
into the arena, and when the horse is barred, well, all that's left is the man. He
was insufficient. -- Udarn Voyl
Crator's Cause -- Aak! -- Ghost of Zingalo Aak
P.S. I think I should be insulted, because I didn't appear on the Dead Warriors
listing for this team, and I *am* a dead warrior.
World Brink -- Well, if you weren't needed for prophecy, you, too, could settle down
to good beer. Is this bad? -- Udarn Voyl
