DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Thirteen Titles!? Am I lucky or unlucky? Why am I not out of here? Am I not
worthy of being a Lord Protector? Is The Commission discriminating against
Catholics?
Since I now have 36FE, I guess you all will only have to put up with me 14 more
months. Can you take it? Who will break through and make it to the top of
Telorinthe?
I do want to give Morwel credit. Nice challenge! You gave it a great shot!
Where are the other heroes wanting to be the very best in Telorinthe? Where have all
the flowers gone?
I am here. Come and visit me. Get things off your chest.
Confession, DMXIII
SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! The boys at OLDIES left the arena dejected, after being kicked out of
the top spot by BAD SIGNS. Good show! Nothing works for a team like victory (How's
that for a perceptive observation?) as BAD SIGNS can attest... OLLIS HEROES had
cause to celebrate, after YODA got 16 points by beating REVENANT. A certain someone
should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 8 points to
CUSTODIAN. (Discrete enough, QUITA REMMING?) The arena was more crowded than usual
this time, as WASNIS faced TELORINTHE's Duelmaster. CONFESSION successfully staved
off a grab for the roses by WASNIS of OLLIS HEROES. Does TELORINTHE have no one
talented enough to dethrone it? Word has it one team in TELORINTHE is using psychics
to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
And how sociable are TELORINTHE's warriors? Come, let us see. Perhaps the
warriors of OLLIS HEROES should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided
team... Like a pup with its tail between its legs, BAD SIGNS scurried away from
OLLIS HEROES. Oh, the shame! Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and WASNIS is
it right now. Most challenged warrior. Isn't OLLIS HEROES proud! Word has it
ISHTAR suffered a romantic setback. Note how she challenged PEP RALLY, 29 points
hers senior. Soopreyes, soopreyes! ISHTAR emerges from the fray 3 points the
richer. Good show, ISHTAR! OUT FOR A DUCK found itself challenged by a warrior 19
below: MELANCHOLIA. MELANCHOLIA of ZEITGEIST kept his wits as he lost to OUT FOR A
DUCK.
Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after
life! Ask not a spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have
fallen into an unconscious stupor.
All good things must come to an end. More important duties call me. Can
anything compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for TELORINTHE? On that giddy
note I take my leave-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Congrats to Lord Protector Paraldoxia who was drafted to The Big Time in the first
round. -- Coach, Oldies
Rizzyn -- Thank the gods I won that quickly. I was really afraid you might muss my
sweater. -- Letter Sweater
Morwel -- Nice try. Please feel free to come to the confessional often. You
probably need it. (wink) -- Confession
Helga Hoarfrost -- You frosted me and I want to call you that first part of your
name, but Coach won't allow it. I don't want to have to run laps and up and down the
stadium steps! -- Custodian
Revenant -- Thanks for the challenge. Luckily I was ready for you. Defense!
Defense! -- Pep Rally
Karin Lo -- I hope you had fun cuz I did. -- Draggin' Main
Paraldoxia -- It WAS you! Congrats, Buddy. -- Confession
Michael -- Those were some nice bonuses and faves on Gushan. Wow! -- Coach (the
jealous)
Nonsuch House -- You made it! Welcome. May your stay be long and prosperous. --
Coach
Kellumbo's Inits -- Not only did I win, but did you hear that crowd?! Most popular!
Yeah, now that is what I'm talkin' about! You don't think they were just happy to
see such an ugly sign go down, do you? -- Rook
Sam Tall -- Bad idea. But who else was I going to challenge? But how many weapons
can I lose in one fight? -- Steel Muse
Construction Zone -- Somehow, that fight just seemed like I couldn't get moving. I
was stuck in slow motion, unable to really step on the gas. I just wanted to gun it
and fly over everything, but just couldn't do it. Bummer. -- Whitey D'Eagle
Ileosa -- Yeah, that just wasn't a good matchup. Style, experience, whatever. It
all worked for you. Nice win. -- Silverback
Indiana Jones -- I've heard about you. Perhaps you need to see if the commission
will let you use a whip? -- Cornelius
Yoda -- Sounds like the beginning of a knock-knock joke, doesn't it? -- Moris Nahr
Steel Muse -- An interesting concept. How about if we have dinner together and talk
about it? -- Sam Tall
Paraldoxia -- Hmm... a plant genus of the family Adoxaceae? -- Quita Remming
Draggin' Main -- I hear they're planning on nailing down Main so you can't drag it
off again. Seems like there was a certain ammount of trouble last time you did that,
something about messing up the sidewalks and gutters. -- Karin Lo
Draggin' Main -- Too bad you can't challenge the Venomous Concubine. After all, he's
in drag, so it'd be appropriate. -- Orrie Pollas
P.S. Maybe now I've killed him, we can get a woman in that role.
Our congratulations to Paraldoxia. -- Jorja and the Middle Way
9 February 10
All -- I know you all thought the old Wiz that is Fiz went off to die somewhere.
Well, I didn't. Now I'm back to befuddle and frustrate you with my senseless
ramblings. I look forward to reconnecting with all my old friends and enemies alike.
-- Fizban the Famous
