TEAM SPOTLIGHT
Walking Bones
Part Two -- Mistral of Madness
It was late in the year, and I found myself in a dark and cold land south of
North Fork. It was not a place I had once thought to be. I had studied deeply in
the dark arts and learned many wonders, and many questions as well. Some answers
seemed always just out of my reach no matter where I sought them.
Then on a summer night a stranger came to my study in Lapur, presenting me with
a challenge. Let me tell you that I was then most sure of my skill ability in the
arts, and in my foolish pride I took up the challenge. That was a mistake, for the
stranger proved beyond my skill and strength, a mighty vampire deeply learned in arts
darker than I had imagined. She wanted knowledge that I had found the year before on
a visit to Vithicar in the far north, and she was determined to have it--
I can't say that I hate being a "child of the night," though my family might
have said otherwise. Poor things, they didn't have a chance when the hunger took me.
Well, at least they are with me in their own way. I still miss them when I have to
go out with the master in her hunts for all things magical and all things dark. She
never rested, never rests now, from that search. She has enemies, rival vampires, I
suppose, and dark magicians as well, in the cities of Lapur and North Fork. Once she
said to me that one is the master of a City of Darkness, though where that may be I
don't know. And she is ruthless in her pursuit of knowledge and advantage in that
rivalry. What do I care about that, so long as I get to feed on those she no longer
has a use for?
No, I do care, still. Something remains in me of the human even yet, though it
fades as the years go by. Slowly, but it does fade. She is using me and my family,
and that bothers me; I would stop her if I could. People die all around her, and she
laughs, and that bothers me, too. But what can I do? She is powerful and always
suspicious.
I spend my time now studying the stars in the sky for the sign she says will
come. When the skies are overcast, I study the Flow-Stones that she found in the far
west, in doomed and drowned Melantea, in the tomb of a sorcerer. Inside them are
spells like none I have ever seen before, complex and mysterious, cast into them when
the world was young. Stories cling to the stones, half-glimpsed, veiled by the
magic. Only magical study will make them speak to me, and I don't know if I want to
hear. If these stones are real, and the stories I have guessed at are true... the
world will burn. For my master holds them in her power, and she is quite mad.
So I set in the cold and wet cave, at the foot of her tomb, and wait for her
wake as the night falls. I read the inscription on the tomb: Here lies The Nameless
One, Mistral of Folstrom. And I ask, "What have I done, what have I let out to feed
on the world?"

TURF WAR RESULTS AFTER ROUND 5
SUMMARY COMMENTS
1. Amazing!!! Jethro gets ten big points for a DA kill. The other big point
swings were--Sister Bernice of OLD HABITS (+5) killed her challenger; The Creepster
of I HATE THEM (-5) lost on his own Blood Feud; Gadreel of THE FALLEN lost on his own
Blood Feud.
2. New teams joined the fray for Round 5! The long awaited Shadow Dragon of SHADOW
MAGIC joined SLAUGHTERHOUSE SYNDICATE. And Toker of SMOKED OUT! became a
DREADNAUGHT.
3. Oz of LAND OF OZ has the best fight round this turn with a 5-0-0-0 giving him
12.
4. YOURBAGD took home the most Stylemaster and Spy Mention points (12 and 16
respectively) with Kat of BEAR'S PAW and Jekyll of INDIFFERENCE scoring four each to
lead in Stylemasters and Grimm of KAOS and Tripwire from OF WOLF AND MAN scoring four
each to lead in Spy Mentions.
5. The point total spread between 1st and 2nd stayed the same as both top teams
scored 40. YOURBAGD's 19-10-0-2 W/L record was better than the 20-13-2-0 that

SPY REPORT
It's me, The Unknown Spymaster, back to give you this week's Spy Report. Sit
back in your seats and we'll have more fun than a barrel of Zontanis. Take a look at
OF WOLF AND MAN's act, as they have a 3-1-0 week and gain 12 places in the team
ranking. Rising in the ranks like a loaf of armored bread (okay, I admit it's corny)
is JGW PERISHABLE, who swept up 13 places in the ranks. Take a look at SHADOW
MAGIC's act, as they have a 3-2-0 week and gain 11 places in the team ranking. It
looks like the guys(?) at SPOONERTIKS had a good week as they went 4-1-0 to put them
in 8th place. I guess steroids help! Hey everybody, watch out for NIGHTSHADE, who
flew up 23 points in the rankings after mashing ROIS ANIN like a melon. Keep your
eye on this guy. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. XXL
was bested by CHEECH and drops 15 points. Well here's a duelmaster that doesn't sit
back and say 'Challenge me'! KODIAK made a challenge against NILES this week. In
front of all the crowds, NILES took the Duelmaster's crown for his own. I give the
bum two weeks. Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this stuff?
Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the SCOMSS SWAMP arena. And
hey, kiddies, those of you who didn't avoid KAOS, please raise you hand. Wow. Does
SCOMSS SWAMP really have that many liars? Okay, so I may not be funny, but catch THE
BEAR'S PAW's act in the arena. Those acrobats seem to be fairly deft at running from
KAOS. And who is this GET THE POINT? you ask, with 37 points and a 6-12-1 record.
Ooh, the tales I could tell! Getting lots of flowers from sympathetic fans was
SOULTAKER, who was successfully challenged by BLACKENED who had a mere 20 points more
than SOULTAKER. Definition of petty: BLACKENED defeated SOULTAKER, a mismatch of 20
points. In a touching display by a 'touched' warrior, THE CREEPSTER went after
RONDOL QUIGLO, who was higher by 18 points. Well, when the dust settled, THE
CREEPSTER was bested by RONDOL QUIGLO. PENEMUE of THE FALLEN had better have a good
reason for challenging down 10 points in a challenge which he won. I thought PENEMUE
showed great skill and promise when he beat CLOUDIA BELL. All right, so I slept
through it! Big deal!
Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day
drinking to their memory. Better tanked than dead! This week 22-15-2 KILLING JOKE
was sent to the Dark Arena. I know a lot of fighters with similar records who might
take notice of this. Proving again that SCOMSS SWAMP is not rated G, NORM of the
CHEERS slew the warrior CINDY BEAR in a rather bloody bout. Let's look for a
bloodfeud. And who needs the Dark Arena if you've got NORM around? This week it
decorated its armor with CINDY BEAR. Who's next? Well, the dead guy IN THE GRIP OF
ERYX just took ABYSMAL RITES off his Christmas card list. The poor guy's bloodfeud
just expired with zippo results. Ask not the elves for counsel, for they will say
both yes and no. Silly buggers, eh?
Well, there's the manager of the SCOMSS SWAMP giving me the 'cut' sign (or is
that 'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). Okay, so I may not be the
world's best comedian, but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors. Its been
fun, and I'm sure you enjoyed it (boos). Now that I've got you worked up for Snide
Clemens, I'll be leaving-- The Unknown Spymaster

Congratulations to Duelmaster Kodiak. You defeated Niles and showed you deserved the
title. Kudos. -- Oz The All Disappointed
Puck -- I believe I liked your interesting weapon selection. Perhaps I can also sell
you some snake oil? -- Professor Marvel
Very few snakes actually need oil. They're naturally greasy, which is odd when
you think that they're also naturally slim. -- Arenamaster Okel
Glorfindal -- What a battle! I am not sure I want to try again, as I was very, very
lucky this time. A salute to you. -- Golden Cap
Welcome to the two "new" teams last time--for The Dreadnaughts, Toker managing Smoked
out!--and for The Slaughterhouse Syndicate, Shadow Dragon managing Shadow Magic. --
Oz The All Welcoming
P.S. Glad to have you, Toker and Shadow Dragon.
Soultaker(TW) -- I like 'em short and sweet--just like the real Soultaker(TM). --
China Milkmaid (giggling and blushing)
FGC -- How nice of you to consider me! Oz said a win over The Grim is valued double.
And you challenged me? Wow! Did Managerr put you up to that? Tsk. Tsk. Anyway,
THANKS! -- Nikko
Blackened -- I was worried about that challenge, you having such a formidable manager
and all, but it worked out fine cuz I won and earned another advanced-master.
Interesting limitations you have. -- Winkie
Sister Bernice -- You are quite the killer aren't you? Are you an avenging angel?
Or has Father O'Malley been taking lessons from Mannequin? -- Oz The All Excited
Street Legal -- Are the Red Wings a Roller Derby Team? I like contact sports. -- Oz
The All Athletic
Buddy Lee -- Thanks for your congrats on our SCOMSSS Shire grads. We bottom-feeders
need to stick together. -- Oz The All Cheerful
Vynmorgath -- Are you enjoying your rest? Drink plenty of cheap wine. If I were
you, I wouldn't want to fight either. Why, a fellow could die out there! You are
one of the smartest chickens I know. -- Oz The All Taunting
SCOMSSSers -- Well done again! Make that five in a row, even if we allowed those
BAGGers to tie us. No matter what everyone says, they are pretty decent folk. -- Oz
The All Praising
Killing Joke -- Good luck in The Big Time, Champ. -- Oz The All Covetous
Rillion -- You DOG! Nice point gain at 51! Well done. -- Oz The All Covetous
Sgt. Standanko -- Sometimes we don't know much about the enemy, but like a good
soldier, we'll still venture forth and fight an honourable battle. -- Jack Knife
Sparrow -- A little bird told me that little birds weren't supposed to be very
aggressive. I guess little birds lie. -- African Queen
Red Dragon -- Congrats on the invite. With both the offensive and defensive
gladitorial prowess you demonstrate, you certainly don't belong around here any
longer. -- The Lion King
Seb Wite -- Sorry, we were just browsing the arena standings, and something crashed.
-- Ten Lords Aleapin'
Storm -- Gah! I bloody HATE match-ups like that! -- Earvling Klash
Cloudia Bell -- Look, lass, my record IMPLIES that I'm a chump, but I'm doing some
tactical alterations and I hit REALLY hard. If you're not careful you could end up
dead in a really messy way. -- Gauntlyn
Or messy in a really dead way?
Agoseris -- Ya know, I only just met you, and I already hate you. Course, I hate
most people, so don't take it personal. -- Pariah, the miffed
All That Matters -- That was not a fight I should have picked, but at least I cont a
consolation prize. -- Chronaliss
Slugbait -- That one, like, totally blindsided me! I thought, "Creepster's gonna get
me," but noooo. I got something for your axx! -- Kortalia
Dreadnaughts -- There is still time to do SOMETHING about our abysmal score, but not
if we're not all fighting! Buddy, Liam, you're our vets here, and we need you
active.... I understand the difficulties our living arrangements lead to if that was
the problem, but come on guys. Owlin, chin up partner. My comps on the fritz at
work, so I ain't been able to access my charts. Jorja, I don't care what your record
is, you're still a cool teammate. Azaziel, AWESOME turn (except for the dying thing
*wg*). Let's roll, folks! -- Michael Eldritch
Toker -- Long time, no see. I still remember when Nythia (our of DM 8) fought T.H.C.
in tourney a couple years agao. I'm still active in 28, 47, 83, and occasionally 8.
See ya around, and I'll shoot a diplo when I get a free minute. -- Michael Eldritch
Jack Knife -- Very nice DC TV challenge! Well done. -- Orco
Rerun -- Damn, I must say I thought that one was in the bag. -- Attery
Storm -- That was just a straight up ass-whooping. -- Justice for All
Winkie -- You fast! Me slow! -- Blackened
African Queen -- Want some cheese with that Whine? -- JFA
Ithyic Thing -- Closer than I thought! -- Medee
Gauntlyn -- It was worth a try on your part. -- Jenufa
Baby Pooh -- If only you were a SCOMSSS warrior. -- Dafne
Good luck to everyone in the tourney except for SCOMSSS! -- Manager
We never got our turn and are doing the personals from the e-newsletter. Just so you
know. -- Jorja, the Middle Way
P.S. In theory, we may have had strategy changes, but who knows?
Liam -- About par. I've met these managers before, and they don't change much. Why
should they? It works for them. -- Jorja
Buddy Lee -- Regarding the down-challenges, they're legal, and everyone has a right
to play as they wish within the rules. I can live with it for now. -- Jorja
All -- I had some p-ads and a few diplos going out this turn. However, I ended up
faxing in my strats. -- Toker
Buddy -- I had a diplo for you, but I didn't get it sent out so next turn. -- Toker
Liam & Buddy -- I'm going cuckoo! Still don't have any rhythms down. Can't seem to
get a challenge through. Had a bad turn last month. It must be global warming....
Don't worry I'm cleaning out the nest and preparing for a couple of new hatchlings.
-- Owlin the Wise
Force of Will -- Thanks. I got it. Not in time to help Skydancer but you'll know
more later. Keep an eye on Razor. -- Owlin the Wise
?! Where's Winkie?! (Where in the World of Oz...)
Lady Agoseris -- Yeah, I parry with my head...any you shined up my helmet pretty like
you. You know someday you'll make some lucky warrior real dead... and I'll be--Your
Huckleberrooo-ooh! (Wax on, wax off -- Mr. Mynoggin, trailguide of an Ephraim)
Uhm... that was the "tail of *pan* mooning." (horns, clove-hoof, pipes, etc)
Jorja -- On my mind are all our swamp's armored tanks, too. I've noticed, though,
that all plate and no perk made 3 out of 5 Swamp Hammerz last turn's least popppular.
-- Changeling (winning isn't everything)
The Scribe -- Changelin's and Ephraim's "manager" (spirit child really)
It must be global warming (thanks, Owlin, you're correct about that!), but I'm
not totally getting what you're saying here. What team, what manager? -- the
Scribe
*Top Career Honors* go to Hellenic Hearoes for the Deadliest Team!
New managers learn from Of Wolf and Man's experience: downchallenges cause blindness
(and multiple defeats at the hands of Crip, the bloodfeud-happy crone), which leads
to blind challenges...? -- Lord Greystoke
P.S. Long names are more popular--hey, just tryin' to help!
Crone? I'm not seeing this. I mean, I've MET Crip, and he doesn't look very
crone-like. -- Okel
(Winkie? He's out back scrapin' the bottom of the name barrel...)
Cloudia Bell -- Guess desperation suits you well. *wince* -- Chronaliss
Jenufa -- Bit off more than I could chew with you, but I'm used to it by now. --
Gauntlyn
Master Darque (TW) -- Now you know WHY I'm the local... -- Pariah
Sscomss (TW) -- Guess I shouldn've been working the DA that night, eh? -- Earvling
Klash
The Creepster -- YOU!! I expected you last round, so that's what you get for trying
to confuse me. -- Kortalia
All -- Last cycle I got skipped by HAL, but I'm gearing for the Mail-In. So good
luck to all! -- Michael Eldritch
