DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
So, here I am again, after defeating the Not-From-Khalhums Dwarf. He wasn't
easy.
Red Coulter
SPY REPORT
Much has changed in LIN TIRIAN since last I was here. Never fear, Olaf Modeen
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters. What's with SHANA
TWO-KNIVES? She actually beat LIN TIRIAN's KHALHUMS DWARF, and walked away with 16
more points from the fight. Major screwup at KIWI CONNECTION. WIGRAM lost 10 points
to AMBITIOUS GUARD. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe WIGRAM will provide more
easy wins... LIN TIRIAN, set your sights on CONVICTED ASSASSIN. He'll be happy to
entertain all requests after defeating RED COULTER. MESSALIDA looked pretty
Duelmasterlike as she took LIN TIRIAN's top spot with 93 points. Now, what will RED
COULTER do? I suppose you want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your
fellow fighters? Tough!
If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills,
fight dirty.
Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here? All
work and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter. Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.
Olaffighterwork and no play. Time for my medication, so I'll leave now. Practice,
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
The Venomous Concubine is jealous, probably because I'm a woman and he isn't. My
opinion of him is unprintable, but there are a lot of people like that in the world.
-- Shana Two-Knives
The Veteran Mercenary, a mere half-elf, knew better than to try to "put one over" ME.
Ha. -- Messalida
M. Chardinee kept making these weird gestures, which I *think* are secret signs for
some CULT. Gods, what a low person he must be! -- Halgar Snagtooth
Kung-Fu. It is to laugh. -- Chelbagheera, not going out without a blade, thank you
very much
