                           Reflections by the Lord-Marshall

Free Blades,

     Title defense number one was successful.  Wyatt Earp, you're awfully good.  You
had me worried there for a bit.  If it weren't for the fact that I have Tremendous
Endurance, you'd have probably beaten me.  This turn, my challenges will go to
Cyladia and Nightfall again.  They are the top two contenders, after all.
     I'd also like to take a moment and thank Turk for the personalized Spy Reports.
Free Blades has had to endure a generic Spy Report for too long.  Please, make
yourself at home and stay.  We in the Free Blades deserve our own Spy Reporter, don't
you think?

Paranoia

                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

Hey there Free Blades!

     Yep, I'm back again.  Paranoia, thanks for the column and for the welcome.  But,
uh...Free Blades has been getting personalized spyreports for a long, long time.
First came Kristina (whose handmaidens still work on the stand-in team), then
Araminth, then Debby (if I left some folks out, sorry).  Yeah, I know there are
spyreports all over the place that are signed "Debby Tonte," but the one that wrote
for Free Blades is the real one.  Flesh and blood.  And I'm sorry you lost, by the
way, because you seem cool and you write columns.  I hope Cyladia does too.  PARANOIA
(9-4557) (66-15-2,286) of DSM4 challenged CYLADIA (51-1122) (124-128-1,295) of
SKAITHVARN.  PARANOIA was devastated by CYLADIA in a 4 minute mismatched Challenge
Title fight.  The outcome was surprising to me considering both warriors' win-loss
ratios but I guess it's just hard to overcome that much experience.  So Cyladia
remains our top Striker and Overall Popularity Leader.  Congratulations!
     Nobody was killed in this turn's fights, which is always a relief.
     Slytherin House avoided DSM4.  I hope they don't do that again, because Draco
Malfoy is top Lunger now, and he's got one of those fancy records like Paranoia, and
I'd like to see the two of them duel.  Here's Draco's fight:  NIGHTFALL (74-2421)
(130-106-4,274) of DARKLINGS fought DRACO MALFOY (74-3500) (59-24-1,190) of SLYTHERIN
HOUSE.  NIGHTFALL was overpowered by DRACO MALFOY in a 1 minute one-sided match.  A
random match, and Nightfall is hard to beat!  Well done, Draco.
     Julius held onto the title of top Slasher.  KING LOVE (40-3748) (48-38-2,293) of
GARDEN OF HORRORS challenged JULIUS (64-3641) (98-115-2,249) of UNDER DURESS.  KING
LOVE slimly lost to JULIUS in a crowd pleasing 2 minute gory Challenge brawl.  Wow.
King Love being an Aimed Blow (I can reveal that since he was top Aimer last turn),
this is a very impressive win!
     Let's take a look at our top Parry-Lunger's fight.  RETRIBUTION (74-2982) (32-
22-1,211) of BROTHERHOOD challenged NIGHTCAP (74-2745) (96-103-0,227) of DARKLINGS.
RETRIBUTION was overcome by NIGHTCAP in a popular 1 minute Challenge match.  Looks to
me like Retribution was mainly after skills.  Hope he got 'em.
     And do they call him that because his nose is very flat?  That must be it!
JELIAH BIGABO (35-3676) (37-18-2,187) of PHILANTHROPISTS 3 fought FLATTUS MAXIMUS
(77-2125) (44-42-2,156) of GWAR.  JELIAH BIGABO devastated FLATTUS MAXIMUS in an
action packed 1 minute one-sided bout.  So Flattus, our Top Basher, lost his fight.
Better start challenging, F.M., or that winning record's going to slip away.
     Top Total Parry Golem won his fight.  GOLEM (35-1485) (64-47-1,213) of THE
PHILANTHROPISTS fought TRYURLUCK (61-1029) (94-70-1,200) of BLOOD KNIGHTS.  GOLEM won
victory over TRYURLUCK in a popular 1 minute duel.  You've got to wonder what's so
philanthropical about a golem.  Well, I guess maybe he's a very generous golem.  He
took his title away from the Big Meow.  Good going there, Golem.
     Beating out Wyatt Earp for the top PR title, PROPANE TORCH (61-2524) (31-27-
1,187) of FEAR FACTORY challenged SMUG BUG (55-2900) (58-109-0,186) of RHYME TYME.
PROPANE TORCH bested SMUG BUG in a popular 1 minute Challenge duel.  And probably got
a ton of skills, too.  Nice one.  Smug Bug was our most challenged warrior this turn
and you can see why.
     We have a new Aimed Blow leader!  WRATH OF ONE (82-11628) (27-20-2,202) of
LUROCIANS XII fought DREHVIN (103-34) (75-45-7,200) of KRISTINA'S THUGS (the stand-in
team but Drehvin isn't exactly a handmaiden).  WRATH OF ONE demolished DREHVIN in a 1
minute one-sided bout.  So watch out for Wrath of One, you guys.  Those Aimers are
dangerous.
     Whoops, Mortification is still our top Parry-Striker even though he didn't do so
hot this turn.  T-BONE (13-3139) (31-19-0,189) of LEGION OF DUMB fought MORTIFICATION
(61-2333) (43-35-4,203) of FEAR FACTORY.  T-BONE savagely defeated MORTIFICATION in a
popular 4 minute bloody duel.  Nice going there T-Bone, and you are this turn's
favorite warrior, as well.
     And Loping Wolf is still our premier Wall of Steel.  LOPING WOLF (56-1796) (85-
133-0,214) of REDHORSE fought PUNGENT STENCH (61-2458) (37-25-1,190) of FEAR FACTORY.
LOPING WOLF was overcome by PUNGENT STENCH in an exciting 4 minute contest.  Look at
that pathetic record!  You guys--get your Wastes over to Free Blades and take the
stylemaster title.  This is disgraceful.  Don't you know, Wall of Steel used to be
one of the "hot" styles to manage?  (sigh)
     Do you guys want to have a tournament or something?  Some kind of stylemaster
thing?  I think that would be fun.  If you're interested, post some ideas in the
personal ads, okay?

                                          Later!   Turk

                               PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE

Tom Riddle -- I have always felt that puzzles should be solved in the simplest way,
and that this simple way is often a sharp blade. -- Tairikia

Nightcap -- Damned fossilized upstart! -- Darlina

Mila -- I suppose you're not a bad guy, for someone who has a son that Debby Tonte
says can't be trusted. -- Redfox

Victim of Society -- Calling myself the victim of the victim of society doesn't zing.
-- Damoreth Stenn

Kimo -- One of many, though I will admit you've lasted better than the others. --
Mouse Noyle
P.S.  Typical primate.

Nightcap -- I don't know if I SHOULD go out on the town with a man so much older than
I am. -- Darlina

King Love -- I don't like your style.  But that was a brave challenge and a good win.
Well done. -- Royland

Retrovirus -- Good fight.  I wasn't sure I was going to win until the Arenamaster
called it in the third round. -- Loping Wolf

Marilyn Manson -- Thought I was gonna beat you, but you made a great comeback. --
Javelino

Dartman -- You almost never win when you fall down.  Try to stay on your feet. --
Nightfall

Pungent Stench -- I think you were having a bad day. -- Cyladia

Paranoia -- Both Nightfall and I had random matches last turn, so I don't know why
your challenges didn't get through.  Maybe they didn't reach the Commission in time.
-- Cyladia

Darlina -- That was a really exciting fight!  Wouldn't mind doing it again. --
Nightcap

Elvis -- That was a pretty unlucky matchup for you.  Better luck next time. --
Jammies
P.S.  What was that catchy tune you were singing before the fight?  Something about a
hound dog?

Redfox -- How did you like that potion of healing?  I find them hard to keep down. --
Mila

Soultaker -- Read your e-mail! -- Guardian

10 July 2006
The Dark Knights sat at the Dark Table with grim faces.  All present knew that there
could be no quarter.  The Forces of Desolation would be unleashed.  There would be no
turning back, no mercy and no hesitation to do what was necessary.  Teeth gritted and
knuckles whitened with fury as the IMPERIAL PROCLAMATION was signed by each Dark
Knight.
     AS OF JULY 1, 2006 -- WAR IS DECLARED ON THE ALLIANCE KNOWN AS THE VENDETTA
CARTEL.
     The Desolate Empire -- Dark Knights:  Ancient Creep, Blackstorm, Dok Sik, Goat,
Heathen, Hatebred, Kon, Osiris, Toker, Wasby the Great

14 July 2006
In response to the Desolate Empire's declaration of war, the Vendetta Cartel offers
the following response:

The members of the Vendetta Cartel can be found in 1, 8, 9, 10,  11, 14, 22, 25, 28,
31, 39, 45, 47, 50, 52, 54, 59, 60, 100, and 106.  Stop yapping in the all-arena ads,
pick an arena, issue a challenge, actually win something, and then maybe (and we
stress maybe) you may speak.  You may come to our home arenas (8, 31, and 47) and
confront us, but we suggest you learn to win in your own "home" arena (52) first.
