DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Like it or not Shadowspire, here I am, your Duel Mistress. Let's get right down
to business. A lot of talk has been made of me avenging my fallen teammate with a
kill. Don't kill my teammates and you won't have to face me in the sands. '77, rest
in peace my friend.
It's an honor to be here. I make the third warrior in a row from American
Muscle to be on the throne. Sorry, but I'm not really in the DM column mood. The
codex entry and memento are tributes to my manager, Elephant. My entry into the
codex is bon voyage. The memento is set of Fendi luggage.

Your most lethal Duel Mistress
SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! OTTO'S DINER? Who? ALE HOUSE MERCS is the top team these days,
buddies! Like a chunk of francium heaved into a wet pond, THE MOTHERSHIP 011 blew up
the rankings to 11! Rumor has it an incurable disease has swept the stable of
LITERATE LOONS. Note their drop in the rankings from 2nd to 16th. Watch out!!! Say
what you will about blind luck and dirty fighting, but CLAN LONGBEARD will tell you
307-290-14 is nothing to laugh at... THE MOTHERSHIP 011 had cause to celebrate,
after QUINN got 30 points by beating TURIN. Win some, lose some. Speaking of which,
CHARLES MARTEL was winsome, after beating TOM WOLFE and seeing him lose 15 points.
'66 CORVETTE successfully staved off a grab for the roses by ZOG CORNERSTONE of LA
PENTARCHIE. Does SHADOWSPIRE have no one talented enough to dethrone him? Word has
it one team in SHADOWSPIRE is taking speech lessons to try to bore their opponent to
death. I'll bet it works.
And how sociable are SHADOWSPIRE's warriors? Come, let us see. Like the noble
eagle soaring amongst the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of BATTLE GRUNTS, alone
and unchallenged. Like a pup with its tail between its legs, ALE HOUSE MERCS
scurried away from BATTLE GRUNTS. Oh, the shame! Everyone is famous for fifteen
minutes, and GAMBLE is it right now. Most challenged warrior. Isn't THE MOTHERSHIP
011 proud! Them's the breaks, BENEDICT. Expecting fair challenges from OTTO'S DINER
is evidently too much to ask. HOLY SHIITAKE overcame BENEDICT. The whole thing
leaves a bitter memory. Place your bets! PATROCLUS is the long shot of the week:
they challenged MARCO POLO, up by 35. It's not whether you win or lose, but how many
points you get (1). Right, PATROCLUS? Word has it PIT FIEND suffered a romantic
setback. Note how he challenged FIDGET, 30 points his senior. The gods smiled upon
PIT FIEND, in his upset fight against FIDGET. PIT FIEND gets a win, 27 points, and a
free drink on me. (Next week, OK?)
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Those who owe
VACA of SUMMERBORN money and had written him off, take note: he'S BACK FROM THE DARK
ARENA!!! AND he'S MAD!!! The audience gave a nice round of rasberries to SAXO
GRAMMATICUS of DARQUE AGES, for expiring in such an ungraceful fashion. 5-4-1,
indeed! QUINN of THE MOTHERSHIP 011 sends TURIN of DRAGONBANE GUILD goes to the
Weary Warrior's Retirement Home. SHADOWSPIRE has no place for weaklings! He who
lives by the sword (or maul)... Witness TURIN of DRAGONBANE GUILD, felled by QUINN
of THE MOTHERSHIP 011. Never one to advocate diplomacy and restraint, I was pleased
to see MY TOP RATED retaliate against DRAGONBANE GUILD in bloodfeud! Charity is
unknown in SHADOWSPIRE, and rightly so. ARCHAIC CHAOS exacted their revenge against
GFE. Questions are being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the
arena. A certain tavern in SHADOWSPIRE would I avoid!
Do not think spyreporting in SHADOWSPIRE is the highlight of my life. My
fingers tire and I fear my incessant prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my
impeccable character. SHADOWSPIRE, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to
foot my bill at The Warty Toad. 'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir

*********************************************************************************
Victor -- Huge up-challenge there and I think I lucked out a bit getting the jump on
you. -- Magic Rat
Porcupain -- Made the same mistake as my team mate Magic Rat, thinking you would be
an easy target. Would've loved the skills you got. Don't know what to do with mine.
-- Big Bones Billie
Harp -- I'm sure glad I decided to put on that leather armor before stepping onto to
the sands. And thanks for all those skills. Didn't realize I knew so little before.
-- Jersey Devil
Fidget -- What is with the slashers of this arena? I thought slashers were supposed
to topple over with exhaustion after a couple of strikes and have a hard time getting
their slashing attack past a solid parry. Thanks for the rating, though. It came
quite prematurely! -- Madam Marie
Juliette -- Fights like that I don't mind losing. I'm sorry about that pretty little
face of yours, though. -- Mean John Brown
Bill the Bard -- I am sorry about missing turn 118, thus not allowing you to blood
feud Jersey Devil. We thought we had our strategies in on time but it turned out
they didn't make it. Feel free to challenge (up or down) Jersey Devil at any time
with any warrior. -- Bartender
Elephant -- Guess you're not here to make friends, huh? :) I'm impressed with the
tactical fingerspitzgefuhl moving yet another muscle car into the top spot and it
will be interesting to see what Otto's response to the kill will be. -- Bartender
Riella -- Keep telling yourself that-- but next time I'll jump you again just like
last time. -- Night Lies
P.S. Valak-- that was like a bad nightmare-- it seemed like I was in slow motion
against your dodging ability
Shadowspire -- I'm sending Big Bad John to the DA this turn. I was mistakenly
assuming that since this was a no-tourney arena, the competition would be a little
below par-- but I was obviously not thinking clearly... I need to upgrade the ole
team a bit if I'm going to compete-- so I will! -- D. Noble (mgr of My Top Rated)
Lots of arenas boast about being the toughest. This one IS.
Knut Sunderhelm and your guild -- I'm guessing you guys are not on the welcoming
committee, right (since I received 3 challenges last turn I'm thinking there is no
welcoming committee)? That challenge was weak, and it was rather obvious you were
trying to kill Praise, which of course you did. You've served notice that you're not
playing around-- I got the hint. -- D. Noble
Snackpack -- Yech! You're way past your expiration! Time to be thrown out! --
Pandera Pax
Holy Shiitake -- That was a good fight, right up until the part when I was too tired
to bother blocking your attacks. Next time I'll be the challenger; I think we'll get
a different result then. -- Patroclus
Big Bad John -- I guess you're still tired from digging yourself out of that coal
mine?? -- Ronin Zen
Old Thumper -- You're pretty spry for an old guy! -- Riella
Kid Arcane -- Laverne? Well, it's a long disturbing story. You'd have to read some
old TOGS spotlights to discover her origin. I plan on turning in a spotlight for
next turn and she will definitely be in it. -- Pauly
Riella -- Consider yourself thumped. -- Old Thumper
Elephant -- Gruesome. Just gruesome. I finally figured out why that guy was called
Hot Brown. I bet if he had known he was gonna be killed he wouldn't have eaten
meatloaf the night before. -- Pauly
Hombre -- What year was your Ford Tempo? I think that could be the name of
Elephant's next warrior. -- Pauly
Pabst -- We will try that again sometime soon. I am not pleased with that result.
Five losses in a row? How'd that happen? -- Turin
My Top Rated -- I'm not even sure who your manager is, so there was nothing intended
in the challenge. You were simply a good match-up 3 points above me in the rankings.
And now, I guess, you re not. The loss of a good warrior is always a disappointment.
(Or even the loss of a bad warrior is a disappointment to that warrior!) I await the
bloodfeud. -- Knut Sunderhelm
Quinn -- Impressive endurance. I am not happy with that fight. Perhaps I will try
that again sometime. -- Cazador
Meerkat -- I started to get upset when the spymaster indicated that you had down-
challenged me by 22 points. Then I realized that such a challenge was actually
impossible and it was just a random match-up. Either way, the victory was nice. --
Jager
I goofed? Sorry. -- Larkin
To my friends of Shadowspire -- The time has come for me to leave Shadowspire once
again. Thanks to all of you that supported me. I refuse to be told how to run my
team. I came back to play here because it was fun. For me, the fun has been sucked
out of the arena by fools and trolls who want to push their religion on me. Good
luck to all of you. -- Elephant
Consortium -- I'm calling you out for the fraud that you are. You hide behind plate
and challenge sub par warriors. You make excuses why you miss turns here off and on
which is your way of avoiding, I guess. It's shameful because those antics are
against the spirit of the arena. So go point your moral compass elsewhere and trying
looking in the mirror sometime. You always say "we" when there is only one of you.
Are you going senile perhaps? -- Elephant
P.S. I could careless if you quit or stay.
Trip -- Funny where we were back in the old days and where we are now. You turned
out to be a worthy adversary and even a better friend. Keep the kills and DCs alive.
-- Elephant
Kid -- Keep up the good work on the spotlights. Just be careful of the moral police
and old hens. -- Elephant
Pauly -- Sorry Hombre and I talked you into returning to Hello Kitty's Island
Adventure. I hate to bail on you like this. Get a hold of Indimar and see if he
can't talk Cyber Punk out of retirement. -- Elephant
Bill the Bard -- Thanks. -- '68
Junebug -- Since you took your two losses to me like a man, my manager decided to
take it easy on you for the last turn of the bloodfeud and won't be sending me at you
again. He did decide to send one of the newbie warriors after you for the last turn
though. At least that should give you more of a fighting chance. -- Cicero
Magic Rat -- Do you have a large red and yellow "S" on your shirt under your armor?
It's the only explanation I can come up with! Well fought, sir! -- Victor
Harrison -- I received half rations for the week for my loss to you. My manager
wasn't pleased. He definitely thinks you're beatable, but he's a bit unsure how at
the moment. We maybe seeing each other again soon. -- Maxentius
Gordio -- This is your last chance to prove something to me, buddy. Disappoint me
again and you get a torch for your third fight. -- Vanek, Manager of Warmasters
American Muscle -- It pains me to say it, but congrats on holding the throne for 4
consecutive turns. Your last title defense however, was far from impressive. --
Vanek
Darque Ages -- Are you trying to make a run on my kill record here in the arena or
something? Three kills in 3 turns is pretty impressive. -- Vanek
Kid Arcane -- Nice articles. I enjoyed reading them. -- Vanek
Archaic Chaos -- You crack me up! :) -- Vanek
Mountain Goat -- Huh, you're really a deer. I can tell. But that's okay, I can cook
pasta with venison just as well as with goat. With, as Larkin noted, plenty of
tomatoes and garlic. That's why I was so savage and gruesome, obviously: to cook up
some tough old venison, I need it chopped into stew meat, or maybe even GROUND. --
Mallie Pennelis
P.S. And, no, I am NOT going to go on and on about cooking, like certain colleagues
over in Caleam or Riztab. I was just irresistibly tempted today.
Subprime Rib -- I think I should've just gone with Mallie's goat stew. Or goat
spaghetti, or whatever. Steak doesn't seem to agree with me. If that's what you
are. -- Poli Sarchis
Ziggy Pike -- Listen, I need your help. That... ##$@$ LARKIN "checked" to "see if I
was a dragon." He should be bonked one on the noggin. He was RUDE. -- Kirlua Noris
P.S. Oh, the help--I think you'd be a great noggin-bonker.
Lizzie Dusk -- YES! It's the second in my winning streak! I love you! Let me take
you to dinner. Dancing, even! -- Lugg Opar
Sisi -- Why, thank you. Drop on by our guildhouse for some mountain goat spaghetti.
-- Mallie
Our congratulations to Vaca. -- Jorja and the Middle Way
And we salute the tourney participants. -- Jorja and the Middle Way
