DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Well, a good Duelmaster owes a column to the rabble below, even here is the backwater
of Dwes Eg. So, here are a few words of wisdom.
First of all, happy holidays to one and all. May the spirits of the season infect you
all with good cheer, and bring you lots of goodies!
We in Clan Neon are glad to see Stormtouched move on. He's had his way with several of
our colleagues, so it's good he'll only be fighting our immortals from now on.
Not sure how much longer I will reign here in Dwes Eg. Neon wants me to prep for
tourney fighting, so I may have to trundle off to his special camp for that. Maybe
Sunsteel, the Parry Strike, can claim the throne once I abandon it. That would make
Neon happy.
May the gods guide your blows straight and true!
-- Maroon Monk, Duelmaster
SPY REPORT
Thankyouthankyou. It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in DWES
EG. Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid! Take a
look at DAMAGE INC.'s act, as they have a 1-0-0 week and gain 11 places in the team
ranking. BLOODSWORDS is no joke as it posted a 3-1-1 week advancing from 3rd place
to 2nd place. Hey everybody, watch out for JACK MCCALL, who flew up 15 points in the
rankings after mashing HEATED FRIAR like a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. Ya
know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. THE NOMAD lost to NIGHTMARE
and drops 8 points. Well here's a duelmaster that doesn't sit back and say
'Challenge me'! MAROON MONK made a TV challenge against ARCANE this week. It's a
proud day for the MONSTER MASH-A stable, as their warrior, ARCANE, ascended the
Duelmaster's throne. Advice to bashers--never force anything, just get a bigger
halberd!
But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!
And hey, kiddies, those of you who didn't avoid DREAM RIPPERS, please raise you hand.
Wow. Does DWES EG really have that many liars? Okay, so I may not be funny, but
catch YEOMAN JOHNSON's act in the arena. Those acrobats seem to be fairly deft at
running from DREAM RIPPERS. Well dang howdy, but if challenges were votes, HEATED
FRIAR would be president. Although it may be a contest he doesn't want to win.
Getting lots of flowers from sympathetic fans was GORMU, who was successfully
challenged by STORMTOUCHED who had a mere 19 points more than GORMU. I just want to
congratulate GORMU on beating STORMTOUCHED. He overcame his superior-ranked opponent
and gained 18 points. Congrats! BRIDGE OF HONOR of UTOPIA RELIGIOSO had better have
a good reason for challenging down 14 points in a TV challenge which he won. I
thought BRIDGE OF HONOR showed great skill and promise when he beat HELLSPECTRE. All
right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). Proving again that DWES EG is not rated G,
JACK MCCALL of the DEADWOOD slew the warrior HEATED FRIAR in a rather bloody bout.
Let's look for a bloodfeud. The audience likes blood and there was plenty of it
covering BLACK DAWN as he was driven to an early grave by BLACK FEATHER of the TRIBAL
COUNCIL 9. Big man! BLACK FEATHER kills BLACK DAWN. Who ya gonna fight next, BLACK
FEATHER--Minnie Mouse? I hope FALLEN HEROES has a good enough fighter to beat the
snot out of BLACK FEATHER. Congrats to CHUCKLEBONES for revenging the death of his
teammate (but more importantly, feeding SKELETON a bit of dirt). Remember:
alliances are great, but try and take your ally in the arena with you and see what
happens.
Well, there's the manager of the DWES EG giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some
tracks. Its been fun, and I'm sure you enjoyed it (boos). Now that I've got you
worked up for Snide Clemens, I'll be leaving-- The Unknown Spymaster

STORMTOUCHED (82--7376) BIG STRONG MEN
NAME CHANGE-O-RAMA
The gladiator known as Pretty in Pink Johnson came into the guildhouse in a
state of excitement that sat oddly on his large battered face. "There are goats on
the lawn outside the Commission office!"
His teammate Slinky Silver raised a languid eyebrow. "So?"
"That means a name-change coming! I can finally change my name to Pinkerton and
get some respect!"
"As badly as you fight, who will respect you?" his teammate asked.
"With a new name, I will fight better, just wait, you'll see. Because I will
respect myself!"
Slinky shook his head. "Circular reasoning won't help. You need more
managerial attention."
"If my name isn't embarrassing, I'll GET more attention.
Slinky shook his head again. "You're expecting a lot of a couple of goats that
may have been hired to manage the landscaping."
