SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly ROCANIS games. Did only my eyes note the 3-1-0 record
which THEM managed to post this round? I don't doubt that such a record will draw
challengers! LOBSTER POT caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he
skillfully bested MAGE'S APPRENTICE and was awarded 13 points in recognition. In one
of the week's more notable duels, RIA ROSEDANCER put down ABELINDA CHASE, causing her
to lose 4 points of recognition in the process. Not for nothing has SPLAT in the
past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week it's proven its combat
skill yet again. Informants "close" to the city champion have told me that he never
fights without pantyhose on beneath his armor. Watch out!
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. 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.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the
miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in ROCANIS. Nice atmosphere you have here! More than a sharp eye must I
keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari
await me! 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 Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Sea Dogs -- Welcome, welcome, and welcome again. Most exciting that a new crew of
fine warriors has arrived to test their collective mettles on the sands of Rocanis.
*smiles* Ah, just in case you and yours haven't noticed, Rocanis is a desert city,
and aside from a few wells around the area, there is no water--only an ocean of sand.
So I do hope you all are ready, and again, welcome! -- Banthius and the Inconsistent
Fury
Cartographer -- Not sure what I didn't do to impress the boss. Like you know, I won
and all that, but I've been issued a torch. -- Demonic Buffalo
Rocani Turncoat -- And you're slain. That happens to turncoats. It's standard
policy for most organizations to make traitors dead. -- Balzec
Frem Harid -- I'm sure someone said go, did you hear them? -- Ria Rosedancer
Abelinda Chase -- I must congratulate you on your tenacity. Most would have given up
after their head left the shoulders behind and went for a nice fly. But no--not
yourself! You fought back! Impressive and scary! Headless half-elf monster! *grin*
-- Fonzeth Hilgra
Rocanis -- 3-0 against stand-ins, 0-1 against buffaloes. We're not sure what to make
of this, yet. -- Sea Dogs
Lemonade?
Splat -- Wow, talk about "too much party the night before," I fell right into that.
Ouch. -- Ebria Gannet
Fonzeth Hilgra -- Listen, I don't *need* this! -- Abelinda Chase
P.S. I need WINS.
Ria Rosedancer -- I don't see why Ebria likes to dance with you. I got all prickled.
-- Frem Harid
Ambitious Guard, forsooth! -- Debra Farin
Forsooth, indeed. -- Erbin Goetz
Yeah, I know, not much in the way of personals. Blame it on overeating. -- the
Middle Way
