SPY REPORT
Much has changed in VEASTIAN since last I was here. Never fear, Olaf Modeen
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters. Biff! Pow! VEASTIAN
watched with glee as THE FAMILY got knocked off top spot by MELODY MAYHEM! What's
with EXIT? It actually beat THE FAMILY's HASHIN, and walked away with 12 more points
from the fight. Laughs were big at VEASTIAN while they watched CAPTURED ORC clobber
LITTLE SISTER. She lost 10 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the
stands. Try as he might, KHALHUMS DWARF wasn't good enough at persuading PLASTIC MAN
to step down from the Duelmaster's throne... Wouldn't it be nice to have live
subjects to practice on? I hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted
prisoners.
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...
Warriors of VEASTIAN unite. You have only your games to lose! Many a warrior
has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You young rapscallions, take note!
Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here? Are
you as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm writing it
before you read it. Oh, well. Time for my medication, so I'll leave now. Practice,
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Plastic Man -- Some days it's tough and the arena just keeps shrinking. Do you
suppose if we put it out in the rain and sun, it would sprout? -- Jorja
Six fights total, but none in the Dark Arena. I suppose that's an ADVANCE for the
arena? Three standbys out there, and we drew two of them, going a total of 3-2-1.
It works. Maybe there will be more fighters this time, if only timing for the autumn
tourney. -- Ruwana
