That glorified pothead has NOTHING to strut about. If he hadn't come into the arena already stoned, I'd've killed him. -- Xavier Yang SPY REPORT Hail and well met warriors of FRATSFA! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. KENTUCKY OWL caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as it skillfully bested XENO YOLE and was awarded 25 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, KENTUCKY OWL put down XENO YOLE, causing him to lose 21 points of recognition in the process. Not for nothing has XAVIER YANG in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet again. Would you believe that over half of the old women in FRATSFA seem to feel that they could fight better than you gladiators? Many and various are the arts of battle. In FRATSFA "art" is a word that has long since passed from the language! What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his foe's mortality? Some say a warrior is judged by the way he bears arms. One thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt! The girls are as pretty in FRATSFA as ever I remembered them....and the fighters as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far off city calling to me. I must away! Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME XAVIER YANG 4568 19 35 0 97 MIDDLE WAY 8 (351) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -BA'AL 4532 13 6 0 110 INCARNATIONS (281) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME AMAUNET 4574 6 3 0 66 INCARNATIONS (281) WEAPON DELTA III 4636 6 3 0 66 PHOENIX FORCE III (453) KENTUCKY OWL 4656 6 3 0 61 2150 BOURBON ST (455) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME VIBRANIUM VICAR 4662 6 3 1 53 IRON CATHEDRAL (159) ZINC PREBSTER 4642 14 3 0 49 IRON CATHEDRAL (159) SOKAR 4590 7 2 1 45 INCARNATIONS (281) XENO YOLE 4641 10 10 0 40 MIDDLE WAY 8 (351) UMBERTO VINE 4640 7 13 0 34 MIDDLE WAY 8 (351) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -JACK DANIELS 4657 1 0 0 21 2150 BOURBON ST (455) NERUS 4679 2 0 0 15 INCARNATIONS (281) FATHER ADAMANTINE 4676 2 0 0 15 IRON CATHEDRAL (159) BEANPOLE 4697 1 1 0 13 MIDDLE WAY 8 (351) OCTAVIAN 4681 1 1 1 12 BLOOD TRAPPERS (457) ISHKUR 4678 2 0 0 11 INCARNATIONS (281) LINDA 4680 1 1 0 4 BLOOD TRAPPERS (457) KELLY 4682 1 1 0 4 BLOOD TRAPPERS (457) CASSIUS 4683 0 2 0 2 BLOOD TRAPPERS (457) JOHN 4684 0 2 0 2 BLOOD TRAPPERS (457) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.

Of course, I won't need arena skills anyway. -- Tennessee Smith That cult member picked the wrong cult. His god or demon can't protect him, or doesn't care enough to do so. -- Umberto Vine Nerus -- A minor sea god. Well, I'm too tall to drown in a minor sea, so there! -- Beanpole The incursion of chaos creatures into northern Alastari has been stopped. However, the gate they came through is open, and there are people from Alastari trapped on the other side. They need to be rescued, and the gate needs to be closed. If you have a Lord Protector whom you would like to send on this mission, please send a message to the Gladiatorial Commmission (email csr@reality.com or via diplo). We will need to know their physical description, personality, and method of fighting. We will select no more than a dozen volunteers. Thank you!
