                             Notes from the arena champ.

Hail gladiators of Rocanis!

     It is I, Bosh of the Skull Squadron stable and it's time for my first and last 
Duelmaster Column, before I head to the Isle of the Eye.  I'm surprised and yet not 
surprised to received my invite.  I must have miscounted my political points, as I 
thought I wouldn't receive my invite until next turn and fight in the champion's 
tournament immortal.  Unfortunately, I will have just missed it.
     I also wanted to take a moment and welcome back Grizzled Veterans with their 
impressive 72.7% winning record percentage to Rocanis--I think.  
For my last fight, I'm going with torch in hand and try out my new rhythm and new 
favorite battle axe in the Dark Arena.  I was hoping to see the Three Headed Knight 
also take up the torch, but I also understand why.  It's commonly known that the only 
thing that likes TP scums more than the Dark Arena monsters, are droves of aimed blows 
in ADM.  For anyone who might want to cross swords, or axes, again and read newly 
crafted arena spotlights, I'm traveling to Talahya #100. 
     In closing, it's time for the Duelmaster's feast at Mylar's and everyone is 
welcome.  The guest of honor, other than me of course, is Chicken of Bristol of the 
Knight of Ni stable for a worthy match for the title of Duelmaster.  I loved it when I 
first heard you returned to the sands, but as we all know love hurts and I found 
myself defeated in our first match.  Our second match tied the score.  The third and 
final match was the deciding factor.  I was extremely nervous seeing how short the 
fight was and how it started off, but in the end it was an honor that I fought you for 
the throne.  Your meal and drinks are on me.  
     To my other fellow gladiators, I will leave you all with some words of 
encouragement.  Remember, each defeat in the arena is only a delay on the long road to 
becoming the Duelmaster of Rocanis and a Lord Protector of Alastari!

Humbly,

Bosh of Skull Squadron
Duelmaster of Rocanis and Lord Protector
Grimwood, manager

                                      SPY REPORT

     Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills?  Well 
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for ROCANIS.  MVP award for CHICKEN OF 
BRISTOL?  KNIGHTS OF NI's proud of him after beating NAKOR and getting 24 points.  
Talk about yer big time losers!  KROM got smashed by CTHOFUR, and lost 8 points!  The 
Duelmaster isn't going to stop just cause he's Number One!  LADRO KHAN knows this.  
He was Dark Arena Challenged by the Duelmaster.  This Duelmaster is like something 
else!  BOSH stopped LADRO KHAN dead in his tracks!  Who was the wiseguy that said 
ROCANIS' Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Grub & Rub Bar and Bistro?  Don't 
look at me!   
     AAARRGH!!!  I HATE SPYREPORTING!!!  Sorry.  I just had to say it.  MEN OF STEEL 
was ROCANIS' most avoided team.  Is there some award for that?  I don't know what 
SKULL SQUADRON's been doing.  They certainly haven't been accepting many fights from 
MEN OF STEEL, that's fer sher.  Like, is CTHOFUR popular, or what?  He was challenged 
the most in all of ROCANIS!  He's got a 8-2-0, is that good?   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All ROCANIS ever talks about is fighting!  
Me, I'm more laid back.  Pinch me, I must be dreaming!!!  BOSH returns from the Dark 
Arena, maybe a "little upset" at his SKULL SQUADRON teammates...  CHICKEN OF BRISTOL 
of KNIGHTS OF NI wasn't planning on killing NAKOR, I bet.  Now he has to worry about 
being Bloodfeuded, and getting put on lists...  Fight, fight, fight.  Is that all you 
guys can do?   
     I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be 
a famous Spyreporter?  I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really 
should stop.  Its been really albendranius!  Later, guys-- Debby Tonte
