DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Ouch, the Khalhums Dwarf is good. But he still doesn't get the title.
Torans Ulrik
SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of DRAGONHEAD! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. HOGG caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested EMBEZZLING SCRIBE and was awarded 20
points in recognition. Not for nothing has TORANS ULRIK in the past laid claim to
the Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet again. No
confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their position using
magical aids. Charmed weapons perhaps?
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city DRAGONHEAD.
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. The warrior's path is harsh. For
mediocrity there is but one reward--death. This past week CMS, at 3-11-0, departed
DRAGONHEAD forever. 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!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in DRAGONHEAD. Nice atmosphere you have here! Sadly warriors, now longer
can I keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon!
Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a
different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
All -- I am getting together as many Duelmaster players as possible to play in a game
of Hyborian War as a change of pace. We already have 17 players that are interested
and we are trying to get as many as possible involved before I submit the list to
RSI. I am collecting the names and top 3 kingdoms that the players are interested in
and submitting it myself so we can all play in the same game. If you are interested
PM me in the DuelII Forums at Tripwire or email me at azaer123@comcast.net. --

Dr Manhattan -- If I'd brought a bunch of beads, would you have sold me the fight? --
Louie Murh
Cms -- Good thing the fight didn't last much longer, I was getting tired of it all.
-- Naefan Ordh
Atlas -- There are times when it's good to be as big as a mountain, and there are
times when it's better to be small and fast. This was a time for small and fast. --
