DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
And the cycle has passed, the last one was great for the Inconsistent Fury at 5-0,
always a fun turn. Big huge smiles it was also the first turn in many that the arena
champ actually defended the title! Yeah me! Alrighty then enough of all that
honoring of self--and on to the contests. Best of luck to all unless of course it's
against the Inconsistent Fury!
Fonzeth Hilgra
SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly ROCANIS games. ABELINDA CHASE caught the eye of many
in the gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested AMBITIOUS GUARD and was
awarded 7 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, KUNG-FU
MASTER put down BALZEC, causing him to lose 17 points of recognition in the process.
Our last turn's Duelmaster has lost, folks, lost to KUNG-FU MASTER, and FONZETH
HILGRA has made the way for a new Duelmaster! With FONZETH HILGRA clearing the
throne, INCONSISTENT FURY of AIRSLICER DAN takes a proud seat as ROCANIS' new
Duelmaster, by virtue of recognition points. No confirmation, but my sources claim
that the top team has gained their position using magical aids. Charmed weapons
perhaps?
Many and various are the arts of battle. In ROCANIS "art" is a word that has
long since passed from the language! I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when
this week's challenge seeking began. THEM is feared. This much I can say.
Apparently the stalwarts of INCONSISTENT FURY are catching the bulk of jests down at
the challenging board for their large share of the avoids. For some warriors honor
is not important--only empty victory. See, gladiators, how AIRSLICER DAN of
INCONSISTENT FURY challenged down 32 points to EBRIA GANNET. Few would not have
guessed the outcome of the bout as EBRIA GANNET was overcame by AIRSLICER DAN. Is
this what passes for courage in ROCANIS?
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with fortune
but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
The girls are as pretty in ROCANIS 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: a fool flies into
a rage quickly and often. The wise are angered by the same thing only once. Zontani

PERSONAL ADS
Airslicer Dan -- Really slicing that air thinly these days, aren't you? Well, I
don't grudge you that, just see to it that you don't slice ME. -- Ebria Gannet
Purple Kitten -- Somehow I'm not surprised, either at the encounter or the outcome.
Darned Small Arena Syndrome. -- Frem Harid
Ria Rosedancer -- You and me, babe, all the time. Let's go out tonight and knock all
the guys out of their socks. -- Abelinda Chase
What's the deal with this Mage's Apprentice? I'd say he was the most useless thing
in pants I'd ever seen, but he doesn't even wear pants, just a kind of long dress.
Weird dude. -- Debra Farin
Yes, but he comes cheap, and the arena budget isn't huge.
So why should we have it in for the Trocaran Deserter? This isn't Trocar, we should
be rewarding him or something. -- Erbin Goetz
P.S. Cool! The Commission says I'm MASSIVELY charismatic. I like that.
Fonzeth Hilgra -- It would serve you right if I DID haunt you. I bet I could do a
good job of it. -- Ghost of Dililah Frann
Rirorni Assassin -- You didn't look as sharp as ya did a week or so ago, ya must have
been keeping some late hours or sumthing. -- Fonzethand Balzec
Ebria Gannet -- Sorry bout the DC, but well there ain't any up challenges to be had,
I understand we be at it again. Buy me a drink. -- Airslicer Dan
Frem Harid -- You're pretty quick, I don't like hospitals either, too much sitting
and waiting and billing. *shudder* -- Purple Kitten
Abelinda Chase -- I had a great time at the dance, but the Boss says us gals dancing
together has to stop. I don't want to though. *smiles* -- Ria Rosedancer
