SPY REPORT
HELLLOOOOO, Telorinthe! It's your gladiator-loving elf gal, Ori Starbloom, here to
bring you all the news that is worth knowing from our lovely arena. I have got all the
action-packed updates from the arena sands. Grab your snacks, my friends, because this
turn was a BLAST!
Big cheers for Mom's Mad of the Bad Signs stable! This warrior fought their way to the
very top with style and strength. Is there anything stronger than an angry mother?
With an 18-14-0 record, she has earned that shiny Duelmaster's title. Mom might be
mad, but the crowd was thrilled to see her on the sands! Keep it up, mama!
Sorcerer Kings is the team everyone wanted to dodge this turn. Who was the culprit
leading that charge? It was none other than Bad Signs! Looking over the rankings, both
teams are practically tripping over one another. It is not surprising that they would
be avoiding the other team. After all the challenges were issued, Tyr from Sorcerer
Kings is the most challenged warrior. Tyr did rise to the occasion this day by taking
down Charming Kitten in an epic clash.
This turn appears to have been focused on skill and honor--there were no deaths and no
active bloodfeuds to report. Can you truly believe it? A clean slate going into the
next turn. Our gladiators showed that you can battle fiercely on the sands while
keeping grudges to a minimum. It may all change in 28 days, but let's enjoy the peace
while we have it.
That is all I have for you now, my wonderful gladiator fans. Keep cheering for your
favorite warriors and savoring every moment you get to watch them in our beautiful
arena. I hope to see all of you back in twenty-eight days for more dueling action.
Stay safe and enjoy the rest of your afternoon in Telorinthe!
-- Ori Starbloom

PERSONAL ADS
All -- For those interested in such things, Sacha 13-9-6-17-17-9-13 LU. Good Endurance
and Normal Damage. The Commission says that he likes LS, MO/VH, the Riposte tactic,
and learning Riposte skills. He was very frustrating to manage because his learning
rate didn't match his WT. He also did not start picking up relevant skills like ATT
and DEF until the end of his career.
He is the fourth graduate from this team and the second Lunger: three styles down (LU,
TP, ST) and seven to go. I am trying to get the first full no-tourney round-robin. I
already have all ten styles in DM 81 and eight styles in DM 20 (missing PR and SL). --
Darque
Mr. Elbidercni -- Why couldn't I have done that a few turns back? I would have
graduated then! -- Sacha
Charming Kitten -- Sorry! I know that was a bad match up for you. I was actually
challenging for the throne. Now, I have to wait for your teammate to get out of my
chair because I will not be challenging for it this turn. -- Viva Lexa
Physicality -- Rude! -- Tyr
Namtab -- I don't see me overcoming the FE difference between us. I need you to rise
out of range so we do not get matched up with one another. -- Gulg
Abalach-Re -- Not surprised by the outcome, but pleased with the training! -- Rednow
Woman
Sacha -- Fairly fought and well met. Should I expect to see you on the Isle at any
point? -- Mr. Elbidercni
Gulg -- My apologies about the face shot. You really seemed ready to collapse! --
Namtab
Nothingburger -- In case you wondered, if you are a key to the left, your name is
mpyjomhnithrt. Otherwise, good fight. I'm not sure how you learned some of what you
did, but good for you! -- Namrepus
Fratsfa Slave -- Well fought... I think... -- ECAPS GHOST
All -- Now that Mr. Elbidercni has headed to the Isle, I find myself senior in the
rankings. Not sure how that happened, but here we go. Replacement training in process.
Three old codgers need to figure out how to win a few more fights to advance. And I
need to get my act together as well. Guess that's about it. -- Rednow Woman for
Cixelsid Heroes
