SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of ERINIKA! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Warriors--remember that glory waits
always around the corner! Witness how this week VINCERE AUT MORI went 0-0-0 to move
up 6 in the rankings. BIMBO caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as
she skillfully bested CONVICTED ASSASSIN and was awarded 16 points in recognition.
In one of the week's more notable duels, KUNG-FU MASTER put down LUG, causing him to
lose 9 points of recognition in the process. Not for nothing has ENDU ENDU 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?
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. FOUND IN THE SAND is feared. This
much I can say. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to
find any of DUDS last week. Busy avoiding FOUND IN THE SAND?
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins.
In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in ERINIKA. 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
Erinikans, fighting NPC' is so lovely. I am really such a fine, fine manager, -- Amy
A. Airhead, Duds Princess
25 September 2006
It is obvious that the Dark Knights wish to be shown the light. Allow me to step
forward and blind them with truth. YOU ARE WORTHLESS!!! The Dark Knights are so
afraid of the light that they hide behind their black armor and empty threats. It is
too bad they are unwilling to actually FIGHT us! I guess our natural light is too
bright for you all to face! Fear us, for we are here! -- Gemini Goldphoenix,
Overlord of the Avengers of Light!

for.

PRIZES:
Turf Wars are a "Winner Takes All" type contest. All prizes and 100% of the RU
Certs will be given to the Captain of the winning alliance and it is his/her
responsibility to give these to the alliance membership.
I have requested from RSI the following:
a. renaming of the orth Fork (DM 47) arena;
b. renaming of Dark Arena Monsters;
c. known favourite rhythms for one warrior on each team of the winning
alliance. This warrior would be in the Initiates or above brackets on the
last turn of the Turf War (they must have at least one arena fight to
receive this award).
Baphomet, Host of TW5
Special Note: A downchallenge is considered from a higher bracket to a lower
bracket. Same bracket, more recognition points? Not a downchallenge!
