SPY REPORT
You elder fighters surely remember me. The younger ones may call me Olaf
Modeen. I return to ZENSU once again! Bein' on top is great while it lasts, LETHAL
LEGION. But how many friends do you have now? Up 'n down. Up 'n down. Rankings
always change. Up 'n down. I think I'm gonna be... Well, FRENETIC CREED's 1st
moved them up to 4-0-1 place. What's with CHUCK ELVIS? He actually beat ZENSU's
KHALHUMS DWARF, and walked away with 16 more points from the fight. Major screwup at
BEYOND THE PALE. SELVUN lost 2 points to PARTICLE MAN. Some new strategies,
perhaps? Maybe SELVUN will provide more easy wins... Try as she might, BELLA DEANE
wasn't good enough at persuading TRIANGLE MAN to step down from the Duelmaster's
throne... I suppose you want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow
fighters? Tough!
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...
A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters
don't accept this. The best do. Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover
stupor. You young rapscallions, take note!
Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt.
ZENSU is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. I don't want
to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
All -- Two dead standbys. Your turn to kill a standby. -- Tzanagi Khamsin
Embezzling Scribe, embezzles no more. Ha. -- Huitzilopochtli
Fear -- There is nothing fearfull about you. You rely on luck and only luck. --
Bendis Oeming
Grilled Grizzly -- I kept asking and ASKING you were you were on the night in
question, and you just didn't answer. Probably a secret, huh? But, that means... da
dah! No alibi! And there WERE some very suspicious grizzled hairs at the scene.
You'd better get a lawyer. -- Selvun
Whipped Weasel -- It's amazing to me the way you can soak up the skills, even on a
significant down-challenge. That takes real talent. -- Bella Deane
P.S. Hmm, I wonder if I'd come out with a whip-like weapon such as a warflail, could
I have taken you?
Marinated Mussel -- And that's putting it mildly! You were totally soused. -- Elda
Mainz
Braised Buffalo -- Huh, think I'm scared of you? You're just a cow, okay, a bull,
with an afro, right? Ah, yes, I'm scared of you, okay? You may be dumb, but you're
dangerous. -- Chuck Elvis
Particle Man -- Besides being not an Exotic Taste, not a challenge, you have cool
eyes. I really liked the way they sizzled and flashed. -- Daceana Linz
