DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Hello, it's me, your hot-n-spicy duelmaster, Sir Racha! It's great to be here at
the top of Shadowspire. But then everyone know Sir Racha goes great on top of
everything! Hey hey! Last week I fought Three Sheets, but he really should have
considered using some shields instead. Those sheets don't stop many attacks, if you
know what I mean. Seriously dude, you're gonna need a much higher thread count to
stop this bad boy.
I haven't decided whether to avenge Napkin Holder personally, or let my
compatriots take the first shot. In any case, Phobia has something to fear for a few
turns. So, we'll see what happens. Until next week,
-- Sir Racha, Esq.
SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of SHADOWSPIRE! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team OTTO'S DINER was
unseated this week as MONSTER MANUAL moved up from 4th ranking to take the top spot
with a 5-0-0 record for the round. There were bitter words at KILL EM ALL's
guildhouse after a 1-4-0 showing this week which dropped the stable into 6th. Dark
Arena anyone? Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner! Witness
how this week CULT OF BACCHUS went 5-0-0 to move up 4 in the rankings. My praise to
MONSTER MANUAL for their 5-0-0 week this time out. Indeed, it was a skillfully
fought round deserving of notice! Who here was not present for the title fight this
week as SLAYCIA boldly challenged SIR RACHA in order to strive for the Duelmasters
honors? This time victory fell to the grasp of the usurper. All hail SLAYCIA,
Duelmaster of SHADOWSPIRE! Informants "close" to the city champion have told me that
he never fights without pantyhose on beneath his armor. Watch out!
Many and various are the arts of battle. In SHADOWSPIRE "art" is a word that
has long since passed from the language! I saw one fighter that warriors avoided
when this week's challenge seeking began. KILL EM ALL 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
DARQUE AGES last week. Busy avoiding KILL EM ALL? Loose talk at the arena has
reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many fighters are after
DESTINY. Watch your back! At the gambling halls I have started to bet money on SAFE
SPACE. He has got the courage it takes. Witness his challenge this turn against
NIGHT HAG! 1 points of newly earned recognition and a dose of my admiration is what
SAFE SPACE must now weigh against the defeat which resulted. A match that raised a
few eyebrows at the games this week, it seems that MIGHTY MIXON posted a challenge
against the more highly recognized QUICK. The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand
MIGHTY MIXON subdued QUICK. Remember warriors, this is the discipline of steel.
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. 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!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a
stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me!
Till we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms
no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
