                                 THE GUARDIAN'S FORUM
                           Reflections by the Lord-Marshall

Hello!

     Here I am again.  Probably not for long, since there are some very competent
warriors ranked just below me.  The one I dread most is... well... our top Aimed
Blow, Dread.  "We have nothing to dread but Dread himself."  Hey!  That's got a ring
to it.
     My fight with Smug Bug wasn't that spectacular.  A Parry-Lunger (me) versus a
straight Lunger (I can say that because he's the top Lunger anyway).  Wait -- he's
down in the Grand Champions this turn and he's the top Lunger?  There are no Lungers
in the Grand Challenger Champs?  Wheee!

Words of wisdom... hmm...
     Never...  nah, that's silly.
     Always... well, no, not that either.
     Sometimes, stop and smell the roses.  Sometimes, don't.
     Some days, do a good deed.  Other days, not.
Do I follow that advice?  No.  But then I'm a stick-in-the-mud Adantri, eh?  Oh,
here's one:
     There is no item of clothing that cannot be improved by some embroidery.  Or a
sequin or three.

     And what am I wearing today, you may ask?  My knee-high boots are of fawn-
colored leather, highly polished, with an engraved band of green-tinted vines around
the top.  My hotora (pants, to you Alastarians) is of linen, fawn-colored with red
pinstripes.  My na-kichai (undershirt) is of course silk, and it is pale green with a
dusting of black beads shading down from the high neck.  My kichai is nubby wool of a
forest green hue, with bronzy embroidery at the cuffs.  My belt is black as well,
with bright red engravings of horses running.  And my hat is fawn, its wide brim
loaded with a stylishly asymmetrical abundance of feathers in shades of red, green,
and bronze.  Damn!  I look GOOD.  Of course this is not everyday wear.  It's my
hunting outfit.  I'll blend right in with the fall colors when I go out to shoot a
turkey for dinner this afternoon.
     If you find yourself in the South End neighborhood tonight, drop in for some
turkey.

Nightcap

                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

     Okay, okay, I'll do the darned spy report.  Cheese, I was just a LITTLE late
getting started, and the clerks act like it was some kind of major disaster!  I was
distracted, okay?  I heard these ducks flying over, or maybe they were geese, I never
did figure out the difference, not being, you know, one of these nature-study types.
A goose is just a honking big duck, right?  Anyway, they were flying over, heading
south to, like, find the best beaches for the winter.  I can relate to that!  I want
a good beach, too.
     But the clerks want me to do a spy report, so here it is.  Otherwise you'd have
the Snide Clemens golem, and who wants that?
     Biggest point gain, Stump, nineteen points.
     Biggest point loss, Wild Thang!, nine points.  This is not a lot of movement,
but that's okay.  Once you find a place where you're comfortable, why move?
     Street Walkers were most avoided, by Do It Again.
     Smug Bug got the most challenges.
     We had sixteen fights, which is about enough to make me cry.  Is this Free
Blades?  I mean, are we competing with... Home Guard?  This is just pathetic.  Only
three standbys, so I guess it could be worse.
     And there were three challenges that went through.

     STUMP (15-4882) (24-42-0,81) of GREENWARDENS fought ROSELLA (103-39) (26-25-
0,100) of the College of Mimes.  STUMP viciously subdued ROSELLA in an exciting 9
minute bloody fray.  I'm kinda surprised Stump won, he doesn't do that much.
     REDTHORN (15-4943) (21-15-0,85) of GREENWARDENS fought LUCIFREYJA (103-40) (19-
21-1,90) of the College of Mimes.  REDTHORN savagely defeated LUCIFREYJA in a popular
3 minute bloody duel.  Okay, not bad.  Not real good, but not bad, either.
     ABRA CADAVER (65-5322) (13-7-3,49) of REIGNING DOOM fought MOSSROCK (15-4871)
(29-28-2,81) of GREENWARDENS.  ABRA CADAVER was viciously subdued by MOSSROCK in a
crowd pleasing 4 minute bout.  And Mossrock is now so happy that he's just, um,
handing out "starts" of moss to everyone.  I didn't know you could do that, like with
geraniums or something.  Weird.
     WHITEBRAID (15-2110) (29-46-1,117) of GREENWARDENS fought SAVORY (32-4143) (25-
15-1,100) of DEAD WE SUCK.  WHITEBRAID devastated SAVORY in a 1 minute one-sided
battle.  Did you know that people who cook put savory in beans?  What I don't
understand is why they eat beans at all.

     DIRTY SANCHEZ (29-4802) (28-17-0,175) of STREET WALKERS fought WOODEN ARROW (15-
4619) (27-15-0,146) of GREENWARDENS.  DIRTY SANCHEZ demolished WOODEN ARROW in a
crowd pleasing 1 minute mismatched match.  Okay.
     BILBO BAGGINNI (9-5508) (23-7-0,176) of MIDDLE ITALY fought JEO THE SONGSMITH
(1-3260) (51-114-0,109) of BLUE EYRIE.  BILBO BAGGINNI overpowered JEO THE SONGSMITH
in a popular 1 minute one-sided melee.  This is totally not a surprise, when you
think about Italians, I mean, the Italians INVENTED singing, right?  So of course
they do it best.
     SEKHAT (7-2251) (39-68-2,152) of CASTAWAYS fought TREEFROG (15-4177) (22-17-
0,129) of GREENWARDENS.  SEKHAT vanquished TREEFROG in a 1 minute one-sided fight.
Do cats eat frogs?
     GAZELLE (56-3701) (81-97-0,186) of REDHORSE fought GOLDIE (29-4805) (28-16-
5,170) of STREET WALKERS.  GAZELLE vanquished GOLDIE in a popular 2 minute gruesome
uneven duel.  I was going to make a comment, and then a clerk said it would be too
risky, and I thought about it, and I'm going to say it anyway.  Gazelle CHASED Goldie
all around the arena during the first minute and then PINNED her with his horns.  And
if that's a risky comment, sue me.  This kind of stuff happens.

     SISSY CHRISSY (29-1347) (43-38-3,209) of STREET WALKERS fought MACHINE (56-3795)
(27-21-0,186) of DIRTIE.  SISSY CHRISSY defeated MACHINE in an action packed 1 minute
melee.  Well, of course.  What woman couldn't defeat a machine?  It's our birthright.
     CORT NIGHTJEWEL (78-196) (136-153-0,213) of THE DRAGON FIST fought DREAD (32-
4666) (43-23-0,234) of ANGELS OF PAIN.  CORT NIGHTJEWEL was overpowered by DREAD in a
1 minute mismatched brawl.  Well, it happens.  Sometimes you wake up in the morning
and the dread is SOOO strong, you just... don't get up.
     BIONIC BUFFALO (11-6570) (55-55-0,219) of DO IT AGAIN fought HIMEY THE PIMP (29-
730) (57-42-1,196) of STREET WALKERS.  BIONIC BUFFALO viciously subdued HIMEY THE
PIMP in a popular 2 minute bloody duel.  Buffaloes have really rigid standards that
way.
     KOOKABURRA (33-4151) (118-163-4,211) of GIRL SCOUT COOKIES fought WILD THANG!
(29-2393) (32-25-0,195) of STREET WALKERS.  KOOKABURRA overpowered WILD THANG! in a 1
minute mismatched match.  And not only did Wild lose, she got crumbs in her shirt.
     SUPERIOR FORCES (33-4543) (141-185-3,236) of DUPLICATE REDUNDANCY fought HATHU
(103-32) (5-1-0,250) of the College of Mimes.  SUPERIOR FORCES vanquished HATHU in a
popular 2 minute mismatched brawl.  And the third standby also loses.  And the third
standby also loses.

The challenges:
     FLY SWATTER (20-2660) (39-18-1,198) of PHILANTHROPISTS challenged SMUG BUG (55-
2900) (99-179-0,205) of RHYME TYME.  Up 7.  FLY SWATTER was savagely defeated by SMUG
BUG in an exciting 2 minute Challenge melee.  There's a kind of poetic justice in
that, but I don't like it.  I'd rather see that old bug smashed FLAT.  Oh, well,
maybe next time.
     GIMME SOME SUGAR (19-4936) (38-30-0,190) of ARMY OF DARKNESS challenged THE
QUICKLING (70-1669) (98-231-3,181) of SCARLET KNIGHTS.  Down 9 (and lots of fights,
but that's a different story, at least, it's a different story according to some
managers, which I don't ask about it because of just making trouble).  GIMME SOME
SUGAR bested THE QUICKLING in a 2 minute Challenge duel.  Nothing like a manager who
pays attention.

And for the title:
     DEFIANCE (32-4619) (59-22-1,216) of ANGELS OF PAIN challenged NIGHTCAP (74-2745)
(183-127-0,290) of DARKLINGS.  Up 74.  DEFIANCE was bested by NIGHTCAP in a 2 minute
Challenge Title fight.  So there it is, Nightcap, you'll have to do another column.
Talk to me some about this later, maybe?

                               PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE

Cort Nightjewel -- No, really, you did say something rude.  But I wasn't humbled at
all, just a bit ticked-off. -- Gazelle

Treefrog -- If you found me in your bathtub, I would be quite formidable.  My
magnificent wings would dominate the room, filling you with feelings of inferiority.
The beauty of my voice would make you weep.  And I would beat you with your own soap.
-- Jeo the Songsmith
P.S.  Why do you keep bribing the commission to get yourself matched against me?
Stop it.  I assure you:  you will never, ever find me in your bathtub.

Whitebraid -- Congratulations on the master rating. -- Sekhat

Jeo the Songsmith -- You're probably one of those frog-eating birds, at least, if
you're a bird.  With six limbs, you might be a yucky bug. -- Treefrog

Ah, well, a win from a standby is still a win, and I'm not going to complain. --
Wooden Arrow

Sekhat -- Damned Fratsfans, always wandering around LOOMING over people and attacking
them.  Too bad the Shews didn't take you guys all the way down. -- Whitebraid

Savory -- Uh... does that mean you want me to help you make Stone Soup? -- Mossrock
the Uneasy

What is it with Rosella lately?  She's been so mean! -- Redthorn

For three skills and two ratings, I'll take "mean." -- Stump

27 September 10
Note -- We are still looking for additional teams in Arvat, DM 32.  I still have a
number of good team rollups available FREE for whoever wants one.
     Contact the Devil Advocates ASAP to join the fun!  You can either reach me by
diplo or on the RSI site.
     Also, whoever sent me the diplo with no name on it requesting a rollup /
information on how to get into Arvat, I'm embarassed to admit that the diplo slipped
out of my folder and was lost.  Please just send me another one with your mailing
address and I'll get a rollup to you ASAP.  Sorry about that!
