SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, ZENSU? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Later days, FRENETIC CREED, since BEYOND
THE PALE took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Of course, we're
all terribly impressed to see MISS LILY win a fight and gain 20 points, terribly.
Tsk, tsk, SELVUN beat PARTICLE MAN and PARTICLE MAN lost 1 points. You're breakin'
my heart. And if variety is the spice of life, ZENSU may be getting bland, as
TRIANGLE MAN stays top dog in the city. The Victory Tavern, humph! I've tasted
better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From ZENSU's trash dumps?
Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.
Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and
gone, and get to see if their team cared. Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only
shines through use. Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.
What does the ZENSU arena have in common with the inns? It's just as
comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Phlllt! Just had to do that
before I leave the fine city of ZENSU. I feel much better now. Paste this one in
your scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide Clemens

PERSONAL ADS
Triangle Man -- Well, I don't actually suppose you have anyone else to fight except
standbys. -- Bella Deane
Particle Man -- Yeah, what she says. Once Frenetic Creed gets someone into the
higher ranks, if they stay, then we can have variety. But for now, it just you guys
and us up here. Bummer. -- Selvun
And the standbys, don't forget them! -- Daceana Linz
But someone should explain to the standbys, again, about LOSING. Which is what
they're supposed to do. -- Chuck Elvis
They're just annoyed. Since I defeated my standby, and the very competent Khalhums
Dwarf at that, I can afford to be more generous! -- Elda Mainz

Order of Lost Souls
Where there is a beginning, there is an end. Where there is a whole, there is a
part. Where there is light, there is dark. All these are found to be true and along
with the most important, when something is lost it can always be found.
Many a person has walked this land in one form or another. Some truly believe
that here is there and there is here but who really knows? Among the peoples of this
great land many have felt lost in time and in place. Some have gone as far as to be
lost of soul....
Although most are thought to have been born into this world in a mortal way, no
one can be sure. Life is something they have in a way but a torturous joke to them
in all others. They live in a sense as they are here and now and having mind and
knowledge. They are flesh and blood of one sort of another. They cast a shadow as
all things living do. Blood courses through their veins.
These beings have become wraiths drifting here and there, knowing that they
truly belong nowhere. Searching for that one thing that they seem to be missing or
the one thing in them that puts them beyond others. These people have become masters
of many things as time seems to have no hold. For not even time can find those that
are truly lost. Many of these beings have drifted toward the gladiatorial games. In
the blood and chaos of the arenas something holds them like no other. It's the loss
of something they have never had or something they had so long ago it seems to have
never been. LIFE.
A few of the more shall we say "human" of these beings have settled into many
arenas around the land. The loss of life and the crazed emotions of the arenas
giving them glimpses of things they longed for but seemed incapable of attaining.
A number of these lost ones saw in each other something that might be able to
help the other. They spent many a day traveling to and fro, for what is time to one
who it doesn't touch. The more time they spent together the more they seemed to
change. No one noticed the change in the others but each recognized it in himself.
Years passed and the changes stopped. Each had been changed in different ways but
all felt more whole. A discussion ensued between them. They came to a realization
that in each other they had found parts of themselves that had been missing. Then
came the next thought. If they could find more of like minded lost ones they might
eventually find what they always wanted, their true selves.
The group settled down to think things through. They finally came up with an
idea they all could accept. They would form an organization that through their
arenas through out the land they would seek out other lost ones. If they were of
like mind they would be invited to join the group and seek that special something
they all desired.
This was how it began and how it still is. The Order of Lost Souls was formed
and the search began. The original members numbered six. They were Baphomet,
Blackstorm, Hammer, JGW, Reaper and Wretch. These members of the Order spread their
gladiator stables through out the realm seeking others like them. Through blood and
death they lived through others. One day hoping to live for themselves. For as they
all know what is lost must eventually be found....

CALLING ALL THUGS, BRUTES, OGRES, QUARTER HALF WITS, SHALLOW HALBERD ENTHUSIASTS AND
MAUL RATS: Since the Bashing style has often been maligned in the forums, it is time
to give the style a little tough love with the following concept: An ALL-BASHER
arena. The rules are simple--enter the arena as a rookie basher. That's it. RSI
said I need to get 20 managers on board and I'm about half way there. If you are
interested in taking part, PM me in the forums or email me: chase at accesspr.com
and put D2 in the subject header.
