WARRIOR SPOTLIGHT
6 Months Ago -- The Eastern Deserts
The battlefield was shrouded in darkness, save for the torches carried by a
number of the soldiers and several magical orbs of light, which circled above lazily
at the command of the wizards. The engagement had been a short one, as three huge,
lumbering Phase Dragons burst from the nearby caverns and ran straight into the fully
prepared army. The archers took a savage toll on the beasts before the elite
gladiators charged in to finish the fray. As the soldiers cleared the massive bodies
from the cavern mouth a small group of hooded men gathered a short distance away.
"There is no question about it. These are creatures from the Kaikwok Gate."
said Rillion, thoughtfully stroking his short beard. "I just don't understand how
they are accessing our world again despite the gate being completely sealed."
Alongside the mage, the manager known as The Greek Guy sharpened a gleaming
battle axe. "The Dark One said something about a rift or tear. I'm not really up on
Gate Metaphysics, Rill. All I know is they're here and they shouldn't be."
"Managerr said they wouldn't be gone long." Added Rascally Rabbit, looking far
more sinister than his manager name implied, "and that we needed to hold this area
until they got back. So that's what we need to do."
One of the scouts shouted a brief warning and the soldiers assumed battle
formation once more. The three arena managers stepped back behind a shield thrown up
by Rillion and prepared for a second engagement. Within a moment, a snarling wave of
Jaguar warriors erupted from the cavern, pouring out toward the soldiers.
The Greek Guy took the point and motioned to the troops. "Move to engage! Form
up! Initiate Shield Wall! Archers, volley fire!"
A cloud of enchanted arrows hissed into the night, and then descended to shower
death upon the charging Jaguar warriors. Scores of the beast men went down under the
fire but it was just a small fraction of their overall numbers. Within a moment the
first ranks of the jaguars leapt upon the prepared troops, tearing and rending with
their razor sharp talons and fangs. Despite the massive numbers, the shield wall
held, and the gate beasts seemed to be taking the worst of the exchange. After a
moment, however, the Jaguar Warriors found some holes in the ranks and burst through,
creating havoc amongst the defenders.
"Second line-- advance! First line-- fall back!"
The first defensive line fell back in an organized retreat, while a second wave
of defenders moved up. Within a moment, they formed up to from a second defensive
line, while those formerly in the front line moved back to regroup. At the same
time, another wave of arrows showered from the sky and cut down the confused Jaguar
Warriors.
"We learned a lot from the first Gate incursion." Rillion commented to RR. "The
Jaguar Warriors can be a terror one on one, but they don't fight well in organized
battles. Those enchanted arrows help a lot, too. One shot, one kill."
Despite the confident words, the Jaguars were inflicting a savage toll on the
soldiers. It was true, that the majority of the troops were gladiators and former
gladiators who were now protected by immortality magic, but still if they were
consumed by the Gate monsters, there would be no return. As the battle raged, it
became clear that there were too many Jaguar warriors for the small army to defeat.
Rillion flicked his staff and sent a fireball into the Jaguar's flank. It erupted
into a flaming explosion of heat and pressure, sending scores of the beast men
flying. As he did so, the Rabbit gathered a nearby troop and rushed to cut off a
Jaguar offensive.
The Greek Guy motioned for the trumpeters to sound the retreat. "Back up the
hill! Form defensive units. Skirmishers forward to slow the advance."
"This is not going well." Rillion commented as he blasted away a row of Jaguars
with a bolt of lightning.
As he prepared a second bolt, he noticed a large vortex opening nearby. A
travelling Gate was being opened. Which meant either more Jaguars, or...?
A second small army of heavily armored gladiator-soldiers appeared. At their
head rode Managerr, on a white stallion, and the Dark One, on his black gelding.
They motioned and their warriors charged into the Jaguar Warriors flank. The numbers
now more even, the first army charged down the hill. Within minutes the Jaguar
forces were destroyed. Only a handful survived to flee back into the cavern.
"Good timing." Rascally Rabbit chuckled, his eyebrow arched, "You couldn't have
arrived just a touch sooner?"
"It took us a while to scout out the ruins of our old training grounds on the
other side of the Kaikwok Gate." Managerr responded, "We stopped by to gather the
second division, as we thought we might need the manpower. Apparently we were right.
The other side of the old Gate is completely empty. They are all gone."
"Gone? There were millions of beings on that world. You're telling me that
they're all gone?"
The Dark One waved his staff and a vision of the Kaikwok Gate world appeared.
It was decimated. Forests burned and blasted, temples shattered, riverbeds and lakes
dried up and shriveled. "As he said. All gone. We detected residual magic. Gate
magic. I am not certain if it was left from an invader that came, exterminated that
world and enslaved what was left of the population or possibly the denizens of that
world developed Gate travel on its own and departed a dying world. We have no way of
knowing which is the case."
The Greek Guy received a message from one of the army runners, read it quickly
and motioned to his fellows. "The engineers are ready."
He motioned to a figure high up on the cliffside above the cave. In a moment, a
thunderous explosion shook the ground. Instantly a shower of boulders, shards of
stone and dirt rained down, burying the cavern opening under half the mountainside.
Rillion nodded. "That will do for this Gate access, but I expect there will be
more."
Three Months Ago -- The Dark Citadel -- Isle of of the Eye
The Brotherhood of the Blade sat around the titanic obsidian table where they
often planned and plotted together. This occasion was more serious, however, than
their usual debates over gladiatorial tactics and battle plans. They were instead
embroiled in a lengthy discourse regarding the ongoing Gate incursions that had been
detected.
"Sheila and her mage council can't figure out how to stop it." Managerr noted.
"Sheila?" The Greek Guy chuckled, "First name basis now, are we?"
Managerr smirked at him. "They can close the Gate opening when they find it,
but then another one opens somewhere else within a few days. At some point they are
going to get access in a remote area and we won't find it in time. If they can move
in a large force, it will be next to impossible to beat them back and close the
access. It will be a mess."
"And we still have no idea who is behind this and what's going on." Rillion
added.
"What we do know is that we don't have enough days in the week to keep running
around closing gates and fighting battles. We're shorthanded. Zalgor's missing in
action and Caesar is off-world fighting wars of his own. Without their forces it's
even worse." Rascally Rabbit shuffled through his roster. "I've lost 15% of my
personal troops and I know you all have suffered losses as well."
Managerr agreed. "We're definitely short on members. Mad Max and Tig Toad are
retired. With Zalgor inactive and Caesar battling Picts or whatnot, we are at five
members. Just barely enough in normal times and way short in these times."
"We need to recruit some new members." The Greek Guy stated. "We have a
tournament coming up and can talk to some managers there. We need to find those who
are like-minded and who would get along with the rest of us, which is not always
easy."
"Agreed." said the Dark One from beneath his cowl, "We can then announce our new
members. We need more men and more troops. I think we all have some candidates in
mind. First, they must have no other allegiances. Second, they must have the
martial knowledge we expect from our members. And, the Greek Guy mentioned, they
have to be able to deal with us."
Present Day -- the Isle of the Eye
One of the arena scribes rushed into the GC headquarters. "We need 100 runners
to travel to every city in the land. We're being paid 1,000 gold sovereigns to get
the news out!"
"What news?"
"The Brotherhood of the Blade is expanding!! Here is the announcement!"
***** ***** *****
Hear Ye! Hear Ye! The Brotherhood of the Blade has chosen to add the following
new members to our ranks. Effective immediately, the following managers have been
offered and have accepted membership to the Brotherhood:
Bubbaganoosh
Grimm
Khisanth
May their successes be great and their victories many under our banner!
Officially -- Managerr -- Grand High Moose of the Brotrotherhood of the Blade

REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER
Well, well!
Well. Deep subject. Here we are again. Is it just me, or has fight day been
coming more often recently?
Tolais Deepheart had a chance to take the title (and write a column) but he
failed to unseat the illiterate smelly person. SMELL CAREFULLY (18-8889) (80-115-
2,240) of STREET PIZZA fought TOLAIS DEEPHEART (42-1620) (124-133-0,198) of
HIGHLANDERS. SMELL CAREFULLY devastated TOLAIS DEEPHEART in a 1 minute mismatched
Title fight. Mr. Carefully remains our top Lunger.
??Radar?? has lost his title of Overall Popularity Leader. That important
leadership position now belongs to Crysoprase. ??RADAR?? (82-20310) (97-101-1,222)
of DYSLEXICS UNTIE! II fought MARK (5-4088) (57-136-3,191) of JOHNS. ??RADAR??
handily defeated MARK in an action packed 1 minute bloody one-sided match. But
??Radar?? is still our top Wall of Steel.
HAIR LIP! (82-3261) (29-23-1,218) of PUNCHLINES fought CRYSOPRASE (1-3266)
(115-136-3,203) of ILLFANG PACT. HAIR LIP! viciously subdued CRYSOPRASE in a popular
2 minute bloody duel. It's "harelip," you know, a reference to a rabbit's, or
hare's, upper lip. A hair lip would be some form of moustache, perhaps the type that
curls down over the upper lip and continually gets food in it. Which, I suppose,
would make a good punchline in some cases. "If you can't remember what happened
yesterday, how do you know you had spaghetti for dinner?" "Hair Lip!" Hair Lip! Is
our top Slasher, and Crysoprase is our top Parry-Striker.
Egads, we had a death. HIKARAN DAAL (1-2070) (76-91-0,190) of STORM RIDERS
fought GEN. JACKSON (6-6285) (23-12-2,155) of THE VOLS. HIKARAN DAAL executed GEN.
JACKSON in a 1 minute mismatched brawl. I don't do deathday gifts, but I do buy
deathday drinks, if Gen. Jackson would care to join me at the tavern. Hikaran Daal
is our top Total Parry, a strange style to be dealing death, eh?
Elayron is climbing the ranks. ZAKAU (5-4623) (45-49-0,183) of JOHNS fought
ELAYRON (51-1492) (84-61-0,207) of BLOOD + ORANGES. ZAKAU was overpowered by ELAYRON
in a 1 minute uneven melee. The orange guy is our top Parry-Lunger.
Our top Basher is Men Working. MEN WORKING (38-4189) (66-224-1,171) of JUST
BECAUSE fought TASHI'SINDAR (1-3249) (75-56-3,180) of STORM RIDERS II. MEN WORKING
was vanquished by TASHI'SINDAR in an exciting 1 minute one-sided fight. Exciting,
maybe, but finished too quickly. Ladies say the same of me from time to time.
FLASHER (6-6556) (19-10-1,135) of TACKLE BOX fought MIKEL (6-6190) (30-30-2,149)
of THE LADY'S LIST. FLASHER demolished MIKEL in a crowd pleasing 1 minute brutal
mismatched competition. Flasher is our top Aimed Blow, and therefore someone to
watch, eh?
Those Middle Way chaps are getting rather dangerous! JUSTIN (6-6179) (24-39-
3,126) of THE LADY'S LIST fought JAMMY LARKE (5-4926) (45-34-0,128) of THE MIDDLE WAY
5. JUSTIN was demolished by JAMMY LARKE in a 1 minute one-sided brawl. Mr. Larke is
our top Parry-Riposter.
Speaking of Parry-Riposters, Zane Grey seems to have no idea what to do with
them. ZANE GREY (21-4810) (33-68-2,142) of AUTHORS fought M. CHARDINEE (104-8) (0-0
0,110) of THE MIDDLE WAY. ZANE GREY was handily defeated by M. CHARDINEE in a 2
minute brutal one-sided bout. Mr. Grey is our top Striker.
Stunning news! The Hoffas went 1-2 this turn!
HOFFA (5-4622) (37-57-0,94) of JOHNS fought MASUMII (42-4117) (15-11-0,56) of
FLAGG'S FIVE. HOFFA was viciously subdued by MASUMII in a crowd pleasing 9 minute
gruesome bout. As expected, but longer.
HOFFA (5-4299) (17-66-0,25) of JOHNS fought HAWK (6-5764) (19-8-0,87) of WINGED
LEGION. HOFFA was handily defeated by HAWK in a crowd pleasing 1 minute mismatched
bout. As expected.
HOFFA (5-4348) (13-135-0,45) of JOHNS fought PHILTHRY (42-2079) (22-24-0,90) of
HIGHLANDERS. HOFFA devastated PHILTHRY in a 2 minute one-sided fight. Amazing!
Well done, Hoffa!
I can feel my welcome wearing out, so I think it's time to say the G word.
Goodbye, and see you in a fortnight.

PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE
Smell Carefully -- And having smelled, I decided to dine elsewhere. -- Hikaran Daal
Malic -- Lennon wanted to make love, not war. I am not that kind of man, even though
I dress carefully and have good manners. -- Elayron
Elayron -- There IS brotherly love, you know. All platonic and so on. You can
give a man a hug, just don't let his hands stray too far down. -- Malic
Malic -- Rugen the Jellyfish offered me his hand. Would YOU shake hands with a
jellyfish? -- Tashi'Sindar
P.S. Elayron and I addressed you rather than our opponents because of the slightly
higher odds that you would respond.
Tashi'Sindar -- I wouldn't shake hands with an actual jellyfish, no... unless he
was wearing armored gauntlets, which many gladiators do. But you know, that
probably isn't a jellyfish crammed inside that costume. One thing I've noticed
about gladiators is that despite their names, they tend to be humanoid. -- Malic
Mark -- That was an exciting fight, I think, and a really close one. Sorry about the
axe to the face though. -- Crysoprase
P.S. Wasn't I supposed to have some teammates here?
