DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Well that's more like it. A Duelmaster is supposed to win to retain the throne, and that I did. Hope to be back next turn.

Bad Signs
Three-time Duelmaster of Telorinthe
SPY REPORT
I can't believe the violence in TELORINTHE! I still haven't told Mom I'm
writing Spyreports. She'd have a cow! Well, here we go... MVP award for KILLEEN?
CHAIN GANG's proud of her after beating NOCTURNAL RITES and getting 25 points. Talk
about yer big time losers! TSUNAMI ALERT got smashed by SIN EATER, and lost 7
points! Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair? I think LAKE EFFECT SNOW
should let KUNG-FU MASTER be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it. Who
was the wiseguy that said TELORINTHE's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The
Swinging Aardvark? Don't look at me!
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. The warriors
of CHAPEL OF THE GHOULS must be getting lonely. They were the most avoided team. Do
you guys know something that I don't? I don't know what BAD SIGNS' been doing. They
certainly haven't been accepting many fights from CHAPEL OF THE GHOULS, that's fer
sher. Can BAD SIGNS' DEAD BATTERY be more popular than me? It was challenged the
most, but is that really the same? People were asking me did JUBILEE REALLY
challenge DEAD BATTERY? (all right, maybe they didn't, but it sounded good!) It
wasn't a spectacular fight, or anything, but DEAD BATTERY wants me to write about it
since it defeated JUBILEE. Satisfied?
Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds. All TELORINTHE ever talks about is fighting!
Me, I'm more laid back. Hey! Quit laughing! Just because GOBLIN had 6-5-1 was no
reason for WETWORKS to send him to the Dark Arena! Stop it! MAINE bloodfeuded (is
that a word?) VENUS for revenge over some guy's bad fortune. Was it really worth it?
Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to hear from you? Write! (Or
have someone write for you.)
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I gotta leave. TELORINTHE is like such a dump, and you guys
smell too much! I had a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte

For your Yuletide bloodletting pleasure, sung to the tune of "Winter Wonderland."
Slay bells ring, are ya listenin'?
Beneath the moon, blood is glistenin'!
A grisly sight, we're happy tonight,
Watchin' all the Dark Arena fights!
In the daytime we can catch the action,
as the Duelmaster defends his crown!
All the criticals and bloody drama,
and if you're nasty you can challenge down!
Later on, by tavern fire,
managers, they'll conspire,
to face unafraid, the challenges made,
Duelin' in that Alastari land!
Wishing all good D2 managers a Happy Holidays!
