DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Hail Shadowspire!
It is I, your DM and new LP. Grand is it, to finally get out of this stinkhole, and
wipe my bottom of this chair. It's pretty stinky as of late, and with the IC lurking,
it's bound to get worse! The top spot is open, as I am visiting the night fights, for
my last hoorah, my stats look like this: 11(2)-9-13-21(1)-17-5-11. Norm/good. Master
ini, ae rip, master att, ae par, ae def, got the epee. Never tried it, but will in
dark arena.
Have good mosh pitting.
-- White Lightning
SPY REPORT
The old man is down with the stomach bug that keeps going through the offices
here at the Yellow Press. So, you are stuck with me this cycle. That's right, it is
me, the incomparable Huard DePriest. Phineas did yell at me quite a bit about good
journalism and tone, or some other such nonsense. Whatever! We have arena news to
report, so let's get to it!
Our reigning Duelmaster for the last few turns, White Lightning, got his invite
to the Isle. He made it known that the throne was going to be open because he was
going to try his luck in the Dark Arena. What good is immortality if you can't use
it? So White Lightning got to test his new magical gift of never staying dead after
losing to Stone Golem. On the sands of the regular arena, White Lightning's teammate
found himself in the title fight. Wyld Turkey challenged the other outgoing immortal,
Warwulf from Cult of Bacchus. He was victorious and we have another member of
Inebriation taking the Duelmaster's title. It will be a short reign, as Wyld Turkey
got his invite to the Isle. Congrats to Wyld Turkey, who is managed by Philthy Phil.
The most avoided team this turn was Big Lake Outcasts. They were avoided the
most by Dragonbane Guild, who returned to the sands after missing a few turns.
Welcome back to Nomad and his crew! The most challenged warrior belonged to Den.
Quick Fingers from Big Lake Outcasts had lots of gladiators looking for him out on the
sands. Tomorrowland was the lucky contestant and he defeated Quick Fingers in a 1
minute bout.
Six deaths this turn, with 4 of them coming via the Dark Arena. A few veteran
warriors took that final walk onto the sands this cycle. Luipada of Darque Ages
leaves us at 11-6-2. Shem from Pray the Gods landed the deathblow in their bout. The
other death belongs to Search the Sky. Malleos Prime randomly matched up with Powder
Monkey of Shanghaied. You have to watch those monkeys! They are unpredictable and
can be deadly, as Malleos Prime found out. He leaves us with a 6-6-0 record. There
were 3 bloodfeuds as well. The avengers went 2-1. Will we see some more revenge
fights next turn? One can certainly hope!
I want to take the time to recognize our Lord Protectors this turn. Two will be
leaving us after fighting this turn, White Lightning and Warwulf, while Wyld Turkey
will fight his farewell bout next cycle. Inebriation has been having a good run the
last few cycles with multiple Duelmaster titles and now 2 graduates. White Lightning
is Philthy Phil's first Lunger graduate in Shadowspire and Wyld Turkey his first
Basher in this arena. White Lightning is the 49th Lunger to graduate from our humble
arena, and Wyld Turkey is the 21st Basher. Our other graduate, Warwulf, belongs to
DeGotti. Warwulf is Degotti's 17th graduate and the 32nd overall Total Parry to
graduate from Shadowspire. DeGotti is now tied with Grimm for 3rd place on the All-
Time Graduation List for the arena. Ahead of them on the active list is Nomad (20)
and Master Darque (18). The arena record belongs to Le Pentarque who graduated 24
before going inactive.
Enough for now! It is no secret that Phineas is planning a big SYP update for
turn 275, so I don't want to spoil too much by sharing his records, which I found in
this locked drawer at his desk. Man, security is horrible in this office. It only
took me 10 minutes to get through the lock. He really needs to upgrade. Anyway, I'm
out of here! I hope to see you next turn on the sands of Shadowspire.
