                             Notes from the arena champ.

It finally happened!  I was able to get a challenge through to the Duelmaster, and it 
paid off BIG!  Thanks to Kaile for not avoiding me or challenging anyone else.  I 
should probably thank Den for those things.  I'm not going to be here long since I got 
the invite, which is alright with me.  I prefer immortality to giving some upstart the 
chance to end it all for me on the sands.

I'm built a little different from the other girls.  I am 16-18-10-21-9-3-7 and nothing 
has changed since I started in the arena.  The Commission says that I like the SC, 
HI/VL, and enjoy learning INI routines.  Nothing too shocking in those revelations.  I 
am off to Home Guard where I will be training for the foreseeable future.  The boss is 
planning for me to have a long stay in Freshmen.

I am not challenging or avoiding anyone this turn, so may the throne go to the 
strongest.

                                          -- Duelmistress Magna Carta

                                      SPY REPORT

We're back in the arena and at it again!  What is "IT," you ask?  It is fighting, 
challenging, winning, losing, dying, and everything else. Okay, so "it" is lots of 
things, but "its" sounds strange.  Enough of this prattle!  Let's look at all the cool 
stuff that happened on the sands today.

A chill is still in the air as winter is upon us, but I kinda like it. The steam 
rising from spilled blood is a cool effect!  We entered the turn with Magna Carta as 
our Duelmaster; however, she was leaving us for the Isle.  We need a new arena 
champion!  Sai was unable to overcome Magna, so we moved to recognition points.  This 
is where the turn gets interesting!

Magna had taken the throne from Kaile the Little previously, but as Den has expressed, 
this was not an ideal match-up for Kaile.  Instead, Kaile challenged Mutombo, one of 
our plenteous TPs in The Spire. Kaile had 3 kills to his credit before today's fights.  
Was it a surprise to anyone that he scored another?  Not really!  This kill allowed 
Kaile to leap high into the rankings and snag the Duelmaster's title.  Congrats to 
Kaile, who is managed by Den.

Big Lake Solution is this turn's most avoided team.  Dragonbane Guild ran away anytime 
BLS showed up in the arena.  Anton Chekhov is once again our most challenged warrior.  
Sailsa wanted to take advantage of a 50+ fight warrior above him in the rankings.  It 
did not go as planned!  Anton devastated Sailsa, and he remains comfortably in the 
Challenger Champions' class.  Mutombo, unfortunately for him, was our only non-Dark 
Arena death.

Welcome to the new teams that have joined us!  It is always great to see fresh faces 
on the sands of The Spire.  Join me in welcoming Toilet Paper and The Church to our 
fine arena. Pull up a chair and introduce yourselves to the arena.  Your first drink 
is on me at Otto's Diner, but you are responsible for your meal and subsequent medical 
charges.  Goodbye to Magna Carta and Tristan, who left after fighting this turn.  Next 
turn, we will bid Kaile the Little a fond farewell too.

I think that about wraps up this report.  See you bums in about 2 weeks!  We will get 
a new Duelmaster.  I doubt the transition will be as dramatic as this turn, but it is 
always nice to show up and see how it all unfolds.  NBA Legends has a solitary warrior 
in the Challenger Champions, so a bloodfeud is possible!  Will it happen?  No one 
knows until we come back.  So, come back to get the answer as well as enjoy the other 
fights that will entertain and amaze you!

Lucrezia -- Dear, in case you didn't notice, our friend Snake Eyes is the strong, 
SILENT type. I emphasize the silent portion because its especially relevant. I don't 
know what you asked, but he wasn't being rude by remaining silent... At least, I think 
that's what he was trying to say happened. -- Wonder Woman on Snake Eye's behalf.

Jacob Grimm -- Well that result was Grimm... Gracious. You'd think an invisible jet 
and magic lariot would grant me SOME advantage!! -- Wonder Woman

Wilhelm Grimm -- I know what that was. I have little brothers too. All of them manage 
to find ways to torment their Big Brother. Don't worry, I can take it. Jacob won't 
learn the truth from me. -- Big Brother

Aleksandr -- So, are you going to answer my question about where the men's locker 
rooms are located? I still need to know... -- SGT. YORK

Rodger Neffer -- Pleased to meet you. Next time you want to offer advice on my 
tackling, can you try to avoid jabbing your weapon into my body?! Telling me "use the 
left shoulder" works just as well! I may not be the brightest, but I don't think I'm 
THAT dumb! -- Refrigerator Perry

Did the boss really tell you to "say that"? Okay folks, what you just DIDN'T HEAR was 
our leading member of the team announcing our return to Shadowspire and our master's 
return to the land in general. I'm sure there was wit and wisdom imparted in the words 
that weren't said, but instead you have to put up with me. We're back. We remain 
committed to the Non-Tournament way and Master Beru has infused our coffers with 
enough funds that we should be around for quite a while. Until the first Childhood 
Hero graduates to the Isle, whoever stands highest will be our... *chuckle* 
spokesperson. A word of advice, hope that isn't Snake Eyes or there could be a lot of 
long silences around here. Anyway, see you on the sands! -- Wonder Woman
P.S. None of you could let any of us get a victory to send some good news to the 
boss?!

Reclan -- Thanks for the challenge.  It is good to be back in Shadowspire, even if my 
personal time here is brief thanks to you!  I'm off to the isle to put my favorite 
weapon and favored tactic to good use!  Who doesn't think the epee works well for 
bashing?  Everybody, actually, thinks it is stupid.  Maybe I'll just retire and enjoy 
the long life on the isle instead. -- Tristan

It is good to have the Dragonbane Guild back in the Shadowspire and thanks for the 
welcome back.  If we can keep the mail on time perhaps we won't keep missing turns.  

Chekov -- I'm not so pleased with the win, of course, but you must be the best teacher 
in the history of the sands! I am impressed and trying to process the many things you 
taught me.  So much of it came with a smack upside the head that it is hard to keep it 
straight. -- Dragon and Chekov Scarred

Sailasa -- Damn facing you is a workout and the training is pretty good to. -- Gayne 
the Weary

Orlando -- You are one tough Convincian. -- Bavil the Lucky

Shaq -- Hmmm, One shot and you quit. Kinda wimpy for a big guy. -- Meade the Brash

Nikolai Gogol -- I thought I had you. Arghhh! -- Curias the Hapless

Wastel -- Marginal? Hmmm. -- Ahrog the Minimal

Childhood Heroes and Master Beru -- Welcome back. -- Visionist and Clan Longbeard

Congrats Magna Carta and Tristan on your invite to the Isle. -- Clan Longbeard

Magna Carta -- Really loser?  The only challenge I did not want and somehow
it floated through, almost like you are giving favors to the Arenamaster or
something.  Whatever you need to do I guess.  I hope that Otto's Busboy
bashes your big dumb forehead in. -- Kaile the Little

Hana -- If I were you, I would travel further away.  I'll get you again, but
first I need to clean this table. -- Otto's Busboy

Ottobot -- You didn't even chip my axe, how pathetic. -- Galpoh Chipaxe

SO many TP's, so little time. -- Lucrezia

Privid -- You take good pounding! -- Urmar
