SPY REPORT
Greetings, Warriors of VEASTIAN. Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to
give you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport. The boys at THE
FAMILY left the arena dejected, after being kicked out of the top spot by HELL'S
PAWNS. Good show! Practice pays for DAPHNE CAMISADO, who pummelled TIRO COCOCO, to
pocket 16 points. TIRO COCOCO certainly had a baffled expression on his face, after
losing to DAPHNE CAMISADO and losing 12 points in the process! CARLINE successfully
staved off a grab for the roses by VETERAN MERCENARY of VEASTIAN. Does VEASTIAN have
no one talented enough to dethrone her? Word has it one team in VEASTIAN is using
psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Is it charming personality? Conversational
abilities? Good oral hygiene? Whatever it is, STILTZ is the most challenged
warrior.
Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after
life! Questions are being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the
arena. A certain tavern in VEASTIAN would I avoid!
All good things must come to an end. As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond
my control, I must take my leave of this place. Can anything compare to the pleasure
of writing Spyreports for VEASTIAN? On that giddy note I take my leave-- Novgorodny
Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Daphne Camisado -- My, you are a FINE figure of a woman! Truly splendid! Are you
busy tonight? Care to join me for dinner, maybe a little dancing afterward? --
Stiltz, smitten
Despair -- And a hearty congratulations to you at the end of this, your last regular-
arena fight. I am glad to have survived the experience, and the skills are
wonderful. Travel in good heart and show 'em what's what on the Isle. -- Tiro Cococo
Well...I suppose there's a certain nostalgia in fighting the Veteran Mercenary, but
there isn't much EXCITEMENT. Oh, well. -- Carline
Bloodletter -- (wincing) You take your name seriously, don't you? Ouch. -- Vahnzur
Gutspiller -- Not mine, if *I* have anything to say about it. -- Tiro Cuckoo
Stiltz -- A little speed goes a long way. -- Daphne
Ribsplitter -- My weapon is bigger than yours! -- Ethon
Torment -- Whoa! You're scary! -- Lady Mantle
Rapture -- I'm doomed! One more loss and I'll be off to the Dark Arena! -- Red
Valerian
Jorja -- Yup, we're back for awhile. Trying to get Daphne and Ethon to graduate.
Hopefully I'll get some decent replacements for then. Lady Mantle and Red Valerian
are running out of time. I may have to DA them. -- Noachian, mgr. Termagant Votary
30 July 2004
The total number of fights calculated was reported as 250 fights. This is a
misprint. It should have read "over 2,500 fights." -- Baphomet
