THE GUARDIAN'S FORUM
Reflections by the Lord-Marshall
Arvat, the Ducal Manor:
As Agony waited in the shadows of a storage closet in the kitchen of the Ducal
Manor of Arvat, garbed in servant's clothing and tense with the anticipation of
assassinating the Duke himself, he became aware that the sword had dropped its focus
on him and was silently communicating with someone else. With the focus off of him,
Agony regained some of his own will and began to eavesdrop on the sword.
Apparently it was telepathically communicating with an ally or other servant,
and he was unable to hear the other part of the conversation, only what the sword was
sending.
'Unleash the undead now.' The sword demanded of its unknown partner. 'We will
need a diversion and the nearness of the Underworld at this time of year makes it
that much easier. Your minions must rampage through the city of Arvat and keep any
assistance from coming to the Duke's aid. It is not necessary that they take the
town, just that they keep anyone else from storming the manor. As it is there will
be a number of the arena managers here as well as armed servitors of the Duke
himself.'
The sword paused while it obviously received a telepathic response, then
continued. 'Yes. I have made arrangements for the Dark One to be absent from the
Duke's Ball, so there will be none here with magical aptitude, yet many others will
be here including Caesar and his retinue, all skilled warriors, and Zalgor should be
here as well. They will be enough for me to handle. Also it is apparent that the
fool of a Duke is romantically engaged with the Arenamistress. I must be prepared to
counter her interference as well. Very well. When next we meet, your realm of death
shall have gained a foothold here in the material world.'
Agony was shocked. The sword was speaking with either Ahringol, the God of
Death, or one of his close minions. He had not been told anything about this from
the sword before. Everything was about killing the Duke. But then why would the
sword worry about filling him in on its plans? He was but a pawn to it. Expendable.
Obviously it had greater designs. Then all thoughts of the sword and its plans were
wiped away as the sword reasserted its control over the former Duelmaster.
Isle of the Eye, Free Blades Arena Headquarters:
Defiance paced back and forth. He had assembled a small group of fellow
guildmates and was waiting for word from Tortured Trout, the guild wizard, about his
progress in contacting the Dark One. In addition to the fishy one, he had two
skilled fighters and arena veterans with him - D. Moe Gorgon and Levi A. Thon. Both
were deadly warriors, if not all that bright.
In the past day much had been revealed to Defiance. The sword which was the
symbol of the Lord Marshall of Free Blades, El Cid, had warned him that an equally
powerful blade, called the Sword of the Underworld, had been unearthed and was
currently active in the city of Arvat. Why or how, Defiance did not know. He was
only sure that the sword needed to be stopped, and he was best equipped to stop it,
with El Cid in hand.
The double doors to the conference room flew open and Tortured Trout stalked in.
'I have been unable to reach the Dark One for instructions. He is on another plane
of existence at this time and I don't have the power to break through the veil to
contact him. We are on our own.'
Defiance expected as much. 'Very well, it's up to the four of us. Can you
teleport us to Arvat? As close as possible to the Sword of the Underword without it
being able to detect us? We can then try to determine what it's up to and stop it as
quickly as we can.'
Tortured Trout nodded. 'Gather around me.'
With a flash of light and the smell of brimstone, they were gone.
Arvat, Devil Advocates Guildhouse:
Lou C. Firr and Abbie Donn were arm wrestling in the dining hall of the Devil
Advocates guildhouse. The two had tied for the top spot in the arena based on
recognition points and neither of them was granted the title of Duelmaster. And
neither of them was willing to cede their claim.
Lou had been in the arena for a long, long time. His 21-21 record was built
over nearly two years fighting in Arvat. He wanted more than anything else to hold
the title before he either died or graduated. Anyone who got in his way would be
rolled over.
Abbie was a physical specimen, extremely tall for a woman, towering at 6'8" in
her stocking feet; she had always been called a freak or insulted endlessly in her
youth. Before she had been recruited by the guild she had expected to have a career
lighting streetlamps or some other equally ignoble destiny. She was passionate about
her dueling and was never willing to give an inch.
As the two strained and struggled to gain the advantage in the arm wrestling,
junior guild member Lil Ethe rushed in, wearing her plate armor and brandishing a war
flail. They homely young girl had a look of panic on her face.
'The streets are full of zombies! They just smashed down the front gate and
seized Forim, the butler. They ripped him into pieces and are eating him!' Lil
looked like she was going to pass out.
Lou and Abbie glanced at each other for a moment and leaped up.
'To arms! To arms!' Lou bellowed, running for his equipment locker while Abbie
snatched up her scimitar and shouted, 'Guildmates! To me! Intruders in the Guild!'
From all corners of the ancient tower answering shouts rang out as the guild
prepared to do battle.
Arvat, Grisly Lion Inn:
Hobar the Miller was a good man. He worked every day at his mill in the sleepy
town of Arvat. Milling was hard work. He bought the wheat, set the milling wheel
and ground the meal. He then sold the meal and transported it to seven different
bakers throughout the city. He maintained his own equipment, tended his wagon and
mules and essentially completed every other task in the mill.
All he asked was that he be allowed to stop at the Grisly Lion on his way home
and have the chance to enjoy one tankard of ale. It was all he asked.
But his wife, Hilgar, didn't understand. She never approved of drinking and to
her all ale was the work of Ahringol. Every night she frowned and scowled and
stomped around once he returned home, showing her disapproval.
That didn't stop Hobar, though. He still stopped at the Grisly Lion every
night.
As Hobar tipped his mug and swallowed the last of the cool, spicy ale, he heard
a disturbance outside. Probably one of the Roman coolies had blocked the road and a
cart driver was shouting at him.
Hobar rose, tipped the bartender and headed out. As he opened to door, a scene
of horror stood before him. Lumbering walking corpses in various stages of decay
were everywhere. Covered with maggots and oozing, rotting flesh, the zombies slowly,
inexorably were chasing down citizens and killing them. Worse, they were then
devouring the bodies in gory fashion!
An eerie groan drew Hobar's attention. He looked quickly to his left and saw a
zombie lunging for him. In an instant he was lifted off his feet, too shocked even
to scream. The zombie twisted and he heard his neck snap like a rotten branch.
As darkness fell, Hobar's last thoughts were, 'All I asked was one pint of
ale...'
Arvat, the Ducal Manor:
The guests had arrived. Four huge, rectangular tables filled the ball room, one
forming each side of the giant square dance floor. Servants scurried back and forth,
fetching hors d'oeuvres and glasses of sparkling wines for the rich and famous of the
city of Arvat. The Ducal Ball was the highlight of Arvat social life. Once a year
everyone who was anyone was invited to attend for a night of feasting, drinking and
dancing.
Aristocrats, the richest merchants, owners of the best gladiatorial stables in
the city and famed actors and actresses all mingled in a mass of ego and self
worship. It was always quite the spectacle.
From his closet Agony surveyed the guests and watched for the arrival of the
Duke. He always came fashionably late to his own party. Fortuitously, the Duke's
path would take him right past Agony's hiding spot, allowing him to leap forth and
strike before anyone could react.
The sword would charge him with extra strength and skill prior to the attack,
making him an almost superhuman assassin. That coupled with his already
considerable skills from the arena... Agony was certain that no one could stop him
At that moment the fanfare of trumpets announced the arrival of the Duke.
Smiling, the fellow emerged from an upstairs room and began to descend the wide,
marble stairs to the applause of his guests.
The Arenamistress Sugar was on his right, holding the Duke's arm. She was a
concern, but not overmuch. In her blue silk gown she might have several weapons
stashed away, yet surprise and the magical advantage given by the sword would allow
Agony to kill the Duke before worrying about any counterstrike.
Slowly he watched as the Duke grew near. Agony slowly eased the closet door
open and stepped from the shadows...
REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER
I am just THIS MINUTE back from a "mysterious location" where the tourney was
held. It was pretty good. I saw people I knew, and sat in the sun, and had drinks
with umbrellas in them, and generally it was good.
But now there's here, and this is good, too.
The Unknown Spymaster made some notes, but they're, well, kind of unknown notes,
you know? I think he's saying that Raork Rokios got the biggest point gain, or maybe
just that he got A point gain, who can tell?
Inconsistent Fury was avoided by Fields of Elysium. Okay, why not?
Wee Man got the most challenges.
There were twenty-three fights, and only two standbys, which is good. Even more
fights but not more standbys would be better, but this is good.
Fourteen challenges, none of them tv. Maybe somebody will bring tv challenges
home from the tourney. I mean, sure, I was there, I even did some of the spy
reporting, but I don't REMEMBER stuff like that.
The longest fight was ten minutes, which is good, I mean, two digits, you know?
But they did longer ones at the tourney.
So, the fights:
NAKHA ADIASO (56-2615) (26-34-0,136) of INCONSISTENT FURY fought QUINTUS (17-
6913) (19-12-3,96) of FIELDS OF ELYSIUM. NAKHA ADIASO luckily beat QUINTUS in a
popular 2 minute gory match. I don't think I remember these guys, so maybe they're
new here? And the avoiding didn't work on them. But sometimes life is like that. I
was trying to avoid a rent collector yesterday, and that didn't work, either.
DAGA TERS (56-2627) (30-20-1,124) of INCONSISTENT FURY fought MAREI (103-37)
(38-32-2,150) of the College of Mimes. DAGA TERS vanquished MAREI in a 1 minute
mismatched fray. Right, well, this is probably what the standbys are for, isn't it?
WONDER BUBBLE (56-3522) (23-21-2,110) of INCONSISTENT FURY fought ANTONIUS (19-
5063) (27-13-0,147) of IDES OF MARCH. WONDER BUBBLE was vanquished by ANTONIUS in an
action packed 1 minute one-sided match. Why was this one-sided? Why not a two-sided
fight?
SUPERIOR FORCES (33-4543) (122-179-3,183) of DUPLICATE REDUNDANCY fought THE
QUICKLING (70-1669) (91-213-3,165) of SCARLET KNIGHTS. SUPERIOR FORCES devastated
THE QUICKLING in a 1 minute one-sided bout. Good.
POINT (56-633) (42-53-1,201) of INCONSISTENT FURY fought GIMME SOME SUGAR (19-
4936) (26-17-0,181) of ARMY OF DARKNESS. POINT savagely defeated GIMME SOME SUGAR in
a crowd pleasing 2 minute bloody fight. I guess maybe Point is a dentist for his day
job? Dentists get savage about sugar, sometimes.
NIGHTCAP (74-2745) (160-125-0,212) of DARKLINGS fought ROBIN OF SHEW-WOOD (103-
33) (1-0-1,220) of the College of Mimes. NIGHTCAP overpowered ROBIN OF SHEW-WOOD in
an exciting 1 minute brutal one-sided bout. This was practically a shew-in. I mean,
how could Nightcap LOSE to a standby?
RAORK ROKIOS (70-1526) (39-21-0,233) of ORKOGRE CASTLE fought ARTEMIDORUS (17-
6864) (53-12-1,182) of FIELDS OF ELYSIUM. RAORK ROKIOS devastated ARTEMIDORUS in a 1
minute mismatched brawl. And, maybe, Raork got the most point gain. Or maybe not,
but he got a lot for it.
SMUG BUG (55-2900) (91-162-0,216) of RHYME TYME fought DREAM WEAVER (56-1959)
(39-26-1,232) of INCONSISTENT FURY. SMUG BUG was devastated by DREAM WEAVER in an
exciting 1 minute uneven duel. Good.
KOOKABURRA (33-4151) (107-149-4,221) of GIRL SCOUT COOKIES fought AIN GOBLINBANE
(70-678) (58-27-1,241) of ECCENTRIC DWARVES. KOOKABURRA lost to AIN GOBLINBANE in a
2 minute bout. Goblin cookies? Well, you know, it's, like, that time of year.
Already the challenges!
TYI VELWIC (56-2609) (20-35-0,71) of INCONSISTENT FURY challenged FALLING ROCK
(29-4286) (36-57-0,95) of CARDOW HUNTERS. Up 24. TYI VELWIC was overpowered by
FALLING ROCK in a 1 minute Challenge conflict. And crushed. It should say,
"Overpowered and CRUSHED by Falling Rock." That's why roads have signs warning you
about Falling Rock.
MARCELLUS (32-5133) (18-3-0,57) of ROMAN HEROES challenged WEE MAN (19-5071)
(18-18-0,63) of CUNNING RUNTS. Up 6. MARCELLUS demolished WEE MAN in a 1 minute
mismatched Challenge match. This is Most Challenged Wee Man, right? Why is everyone
out to get him?
GERMANICUS (17-6999) (22-9-1,100) of GLADIATORS challenged AIRSLICER DAN (56-
4093) (17-12-2,92) of INCONSISTENT FURY. Down 8. GERMANICUS devastated AIRSLICER
DAN in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge conflict. Well, you know, ouch.
MOSSIE ROCKTROLL (56-3549) (20-19-1,100) of INCONSISTENT FURY challenged TALL
TREE (29-4380) (27-80-0,134) of CARDOW HUNTERS. Up 34. MOSSIE ROCKTROLL handily
defeated TALL TREE in a 2 minute one-sided Challenge bout. I guess this one went
right for Mossie. Good work. Did you learn a lot?
TWIG LITE ZONE (56-3537) (22-18-2,122) of INCONSISTENT FURY challenged JEO THE
SONGSMITH (1-3260) (46-94-0,133) of BLUE EYRIE. Up 11. TWIG LITE ZONE slimly won
victory over JEO THE SONGSMITH in a 10 minute fight. The longest fight. I think it
might have gone even longer, except that Jeo broke a nail on his harpstrings and had
to stop singing, and that gave Twig his chance.
LUCRETIUS (32-4687) (33-14-3,153) of ROMAN HEROES challenged SEKHAT (7-2251)
(33-49-2,130) of CASTAWAYS. Down 23. LUCRETIUS vanquished SEKHAT in a 1 minute
uneven Challenge fight. Yep. Olaf once told me there would be days like this, and
he was right, Sekhat. There will be LOTS of days like this.
CORNELIUS (31-3485) (38-9-1,170) of CAESAR'S POOL HALL challenged STONETOOTH
(29-4560) (34-67-0,135) of CARDOW HUNTERS. Down 35. CORNELIUS vanquished STONETOOTH
in a 1 minute uneven Challenge duel. Not really much to say about this one.
DREAD (32-4666) (26-15-0,166) of ANGELS OF PAIN challenged CEDAR (29-4319) (33-
44-2,172) of CARDOW HUNTERS. Up 6. DREAD handily defeated CEDAR in a 1 minute
uneven Challenge fight. Is Dread up and coming, or what?
DEFIANCE (32-4619) (42-14-1,196) of ANGELS OF PAIN challenged FLAMING FLEA (70-
499) (33-33-2,189) of MIDNIGHT HOUR. Down 7. DEFIANCE vanquished FLAMING FLEA in an
exciting 1 minute mismatched Challenge fight. Well, good. The very idea of a
flaming flea makes me nervous.
JUDGE (56-119) (67-47-2,184) of INCONSISTENT FURY challenged CORT NIGHTJEWEL
(78-196) (121-143-0,269) of THE DRAGON FIST. Up lots. Maybe... 85? JUDGE bested
CORT NIGHTJEWEL in a 2 minute Challenge brawl. Good.
ALDALDON (56-3913) (32-21-1,209) of PHILANTHROPISTS challenged BLACK WOLF (29-
4194) (52-50-2,210) of CARDOW HUNTERS. Up 1. ALDALDON was defeated by BLACK WOLF in
a 1 minute Challenge match. Is this Wolf tough, or what?
NATAS (11-6531) (42-27-0,203) of DO IT AGAIN challenged DESERT GYPSY (56-2105)
(37-21-3,216) of INCONSISTENT FURY. Up 13. NATAS overpowered DESERT GYPSY in a
crowd pleasing 2 minute mismatched Challenge duel. Some people are really determined
not to drop in the ranks, you know?
JEANNE D'ARC (70-68) (33-27-0,202) of GORGEOUS GOBLINS challenged BARBARIAN
KNIGHT (70-565) (30-25-0,244) of DISPOSABLE HEROES. Up 42. JEANNE D'ARC subdued
BARBARIAN KNIGHT in an exciting 1 minute Challenge melee. The goblins are coming!
For the title:
CLAUDIUS (13-2860) (80-55-2,220) of I, CLAUDIUS challenged GAZELLE (56-3701)
(70-83-0,238) of REDHORSE. Up 18. CLAUDIUS was devastated by GAZELLE in a 1 minute
mismatched Challenge Title fight. Congratulations to Gazelle again, and write a
column.

THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN
PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE
Sekhat -- Ouch yes, Twig's too. Eyes hurt bad, even worse in the dark at full speed
while wearing fuzzy slippers, dark sunglasses, and a super one of a kind b-day suit!
Might make one spill their drink. Haha. -- Twig lite Zone
Veloxi -- Fun fast weapon you got there. Rematch? -- Twig Lite Zone
Falling Rock -- Crush! I feel like I need some butter. -- Tyr Velwic
Tall Tree -- Dang, welp, that's two in a row, shall we try a third? You do teach me
so well, and if the dang weaponsmith would use steel instead of tin I might actually
win. -- Maggie RockTroll
Shen -- Oh hey ya! I accidentally sent a personal to you in the wrong arena several
turns back--it was basically that Dragon Army Rules! *grin* Loved that book, I've
got it in hardback. -- Banthius
Alex Griffin -- Wow! I don't know what to say about that except to comment that I
should have bought a lottery ticket! Two brand spankin' new ADM rookies match on a
first fight, long odds on that especially these days, and then for a kill, amazing!
That has to be the rarest of rare with only a Primus first round being more unlikely.
Amazed! -- Air Slucer Dan
P.S. Anyone ever heard of that before? Perhaps a record for me? BTW, Air slucer
Dan was 0 tourney fighs, also. -- Banthius
Natas -- You be wicked dangerous, I knew that before our match, and now I am much
more aware of just how 'D'angerous 'D'eadly and 'D'elightful you are. -- Raork Rokius
Jeanee D'arc -- Ahh, a goblin, did everyone see that? I got to fight a goblin, my
first one! Thank you, thank you. I made it last for a while so you all could enjoy
the show. -- Arn Goblinbane
John Tyler -- Nice record. If I'd known I'd be random vs your style and setup I'd
have lasted a lot longer. You don't mind if I give ya a few losses? *laugh* Of
course you don't. *big smiles* -- Flaming Flea
Jadra -- Roar! -- Barbarian
(Drizzt AB top AB you're my secondary challenge, sorry about the OH if/when.)
Kookaburra -- Aha! ICU have been issued a new equipment load, it works well for you.
I'm sure you'll advance soon, I do so luv the flavor of 'healing potions'--may I have
another? -- Judge
Alix -- Euk. Bad Bad Bad matchup for me, but not for much longer. *grin* -- Point
Artemidorus -- Gotcha! And we shall getcha some more too! -- Banthius
P.S. Member that 60+ point downchallenge? I still do...
Himey the Pimp -- I've nuthin to say to you, except that your proclaimed profession
is less than worthy, a sewer pipe repair man has a more respectable job. -- Desert
Gypsy
(Just keepin it lively... I'm sure you, the manager, are a fine person... --
Banthius)
Jeremy Camp -- Hum, interesting first minute, especially your last last attack in
that, and later rounds. Also, I will certainly be changing my strat in minute two.
Good fight, good karma to you. Till we match again. -- Daga Tes
Darkness Above -- Ack, I sure wasn't my normal self there, try again? -- Wonder
Bubble
Wild Thing -- I don't know what I was thinking with that challenge. I be leaking!
All over! *grin* Try again in a few turns, or sooner depending on tourney. -- Nakha
Adiaso
Dread -- A good try, but I'm doing a good try, too--I want to hang onto my winning
record. -- Black Wolf
P.S. Okay, maybe killing you was a little over the top, but I just got carried away.
And it isn't like it was permanent.
Mossie Rocktroll -- I heard about you rocktrolls using trees as toothpicks. I can't
say I care for the notion, because most of you have bad breath. -- Tall Tree
Tyi Velwic -- Weird, but this seems to be our day to win fights. I like it. --
Falling Rock
Sissy Chrissy -- I wouldn't walk the streets, they're way too dirty. Get yourself a
nice little buggy instead. -- Cedar
