SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! Practice pays for KURBALD, who pummelled EMBEZZLING SCRIBE, to pocket
20 points. Win some, lose some. Speaking of which, SAMURAI was winsome, after
beating GALBEI and seeing him lose 5 points. Our Duelmaster has lost, folks, lost to
KHALUHUMS DWARF, BUT ANKH is still the Duelmaster because he has the most recognition
points! So who was the warrior seen charging into immovable walls and challenging
dead trees? Someone's got a basic problem...
So much to report, so little time!
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Questions are
being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena. A certain
tavern in TRICORUS 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. Like a mixed metaphor, and an
overtaxed simile, I now bid TRICORUS farewell-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Black Lotus -- Ah, beauty and danger, the temptation! But my momma didn't raise me
to take foolish risks with dangerous women. At least, not if I could avoid it. Take
the skills and run, girl. -- Galbei
Samurai -- I bet you'd be taller if you weren't bowlegged. Have you considered
stretching exercises? Knee replacements? -- Margalh
Shogun -- How can you be a ronin? Isn't that close to a contradiction in terms? I
mean, I suppose you MIGHT be if you cut loose from your emperor, but you wouldn't do
THAT, would you? -- Aillendei
Grape and Basher -- Don't mess with us. -- the Dark Arena of Tricorus

All -- I am looking for able bodied warriors, magic-wielding wizards, faith-healing
clerics, and quick-handed thieves to begin a quest requested by the Emperor of the
Southern Kingdom of Crailmia. All interested parties can diplo me in arena 93 --

Soultaker -- Read your e-mail! -- Guardian
10 July 2006
The Dark Knights sat at the Dark Table with grim faces. All present knew that there
could be no quarter. The Forces of Desolation would be unleashed. There would be no
turning back, no mercy and no hesitation to do what was necessary. Teeth gritted and
knuckles whitened with fury as the IMPERIAL PROCLAMATION was signed by each Dark
Knight.
AS OF JULY 1, 2006 -- WAR IS DECLARED ON THE ALLIANCE KNOWN AS THE VENDETTA
CARTEL.
The Desolate Empire -- Dark Knights: Ancient Creep, Blackstorm, Dok Sik, Goat,
Heathen, Hatebred, Kon, Osiris, Toker, Wasby the Great
14 July 2006
In response to the Desolate Empire's declaration of war, the Vendetta Cartel offers
the following response:
The members of the Vendetta Cartel can be found in 1, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 22, 25, 28,
31, 39, 45, 47, 50, 52, 54, 59, 60, 100, and 106. Stop yapping in the all-arena ads,
pick an arena, issue a challenge, actually win something, and then maybe (and we
stress maybe) you may speak. You may come to our home arenas (8, 31, and 47) and
confront us, but we suggest you learn to win in your own "home" arena (52) first.
