DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
All Hail Rocanis! Truly the greatest arena in all the land! This turn I am off to
the Isle. In case anyone is interested, Mossie Rocktroll started in Florida FTF of
'01 as a Rookie or Apprentice, was a long time ago...
Best of luck on the sands--less vs mine, of course.
-- Banthius, mgr. Inconsistent Fury
SPY REPORT
Much has changed in ROCANIS since last I was here. Never fear, Olaf Modeen
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters. What's with RIA
ROSEDANCER? She actually beat MIDDLE WAY 20's ABELINDA CHASE, and walked away with
22 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at MIDDLE WAY 20 while they watched
EBRIA GANNET clobber FONZETH HILGRA. He lost 13 points and got bruised from objects
thrown from the stands. See how the Duelmaster Dark Arena Challenged DARK ARENA's
ROKORI KLEE? That sort of initiative is how he got where he is now. The crowds were
amazed this turn, as ROKORI KLEE killed the Duelmaster, MOSSIE ROCKTROLL, leaving
INCONSISTENT FURY in mourning. So now AIRSLICER DAN gets to be ROCANIS' Duelmaster.
But what comes around goes around. Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects to
practice on? I hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted prisoners.
If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports.
ROCANIS thinks THEM and their 16-22-3 is too much! If at first you don't succeed,
give up... In my day, no team with a 15-20-3 would scare me off! What's the
problem, INCONSISTENT FURY? What do people see in CHARLIE EKSA? His 9-9-0? MIDDLE
WAY 20 ain't talkin', but he's got 73 points.
A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters
don't accept this. The best do. Methinks MIDDLE WAY 20's desire for revenge against
INCONSISTENT FURY passes with each passing moment... One week left guys! Let's get
on with the show! Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You young
rapscallions, take note!
Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt.
ROCANIS is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places.
Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and good luck. Until next time,--
Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Charlie Eska -- That was close. Who said something about not winning... Way too
close. Glad I got invited. -- Rossie Mosstroll
Dililan Frann -- Meow! Growl! Bleeding all over and as a werecat, least I was at
the summer FTF when I was Rookie Replacement. The color purple is considered ahh
strongly, hence the reason I was outcast to this desert town called Rocanis... meow
smiles -- Purple Kitten
Mossie Rocktroll -- I never signed up to do trolls, dammit. Somebody should've
handed me a hammer and chisel! -- Charlie Eksa
Purple Kitten -- The acid green bow is a mistake. The color clashes so badly, it
makes my head ache to just look at it. -- Dililah Frann
P.S. And then, of course, you hit me. Ouch. Injury to visual insult.
Splat -- I thought that's what you were supposed to do. -- Abelinda Chase
Ria Rosedancer -- I especially liked the part where you danced clad in roses and not
much else. Wow! -- Frem Harid
Crash -- It's going to cost me a LOT to get that carriage fixed, isn't it? -- Ebria
Gannet
Banthius and Company -- Saying anything at all is a boon. Thanks for talking now and
then. -- Jorja
P.S. Sometimes the echo gets to me.
Our congratulations to Mossie Rocktroll. -- Jorja and the Middle Way
