                                  WARRIOR SPOTLIGHT

     Vengeance and Teetotaler took up position outside the rear gate to the Chaos 
Temple, silently awaiting the massive portal to swing open.  They had just returned 
from the massive incursion into enemy territory which had been planned as a 
diversionary attack and served to boost the morale of the troops in place of the 
regularly scheduled tournament.  It was a dank, fetid morning which covered the two of 
them in sweat, but they waited patiently, willing themselves to become one with the 
swamp.
     The false invasion had been the master stroke, but it took the combined forces of 
all the Lord Protectors present to pull off.  The beasts would sense a trap if they 
did not deploy every ounce of their strength.  Amazingly, the squabbling and bickering 
had been put aside long enough for the attack to work.  Then, just after they returned 
to the keep, they summoned the Roc and returned to the jungle.
     Crouching in a heap of razor-ferns they watched to see what activity was taking 
place inside the temple in the wake of the assault.  For over an hour there was no 
activity, as if the Chaos spawn had locked up tight.  That, according to Teetotaler, 
was a good sign, as if they were preparing to defend something, perhaps either the Key 
or something of even greater value to them. 
     As the noon sun tried, and failed to burn it's way through the dense canopy of 
vegetation, the stone gate gaped wide on creaking hinges.  A formidable group of the 
most hideous demons crept forth warily, sniffing at the air.  Turning, they rushed off 
into the swamp.
     Teetotaler tapped Vengeance and pointed.  The largest of the group bore a black 
sack gripped tightly within its horned claws.  They had to make a choice quickly -- 
should they go after the demons or slip into the Temple?  If the Key was within the 
bag, it would take both of them to get it, but if it wasn't, and rested within the 
Temple, they would be of no shape to get it if they fought the demons.
     Vengeance made his decision at once.  They couldn't take the chance.  They had to 
follow the demons.  Motioning to Teetotaler, he moved off as silent as a dream.

                        Reflections by the The Gate Commander

Greetings warriors of Gateway!

     Congratulations to those of you who achieved victory in the most recent 
tournament.  Captain Vengeance and I wholeheartedly approve of the new tournament 
format.  Kudos to the Commission on this positive and highly enjoyable change.  I'm 
sure that some hoser will complain or write something negative.  But the bottom line 
is that last turn's tourney was cool.  I eagerly look forward to the next one.
     As for myself, I managed to grab four speed raises and achieve yet another 
Archmaster.  My teammates were also successful in their training endeavors.  I noticed 
that the Carapace hordes were all maxing out in skills and trains.  Boy do we hate 
him. [grin]  Perhaps he will get bored and retire Falstaff...
     Best of luck to all of you (well, except for Neon, Scrag and their goofball 
allies, and also some other non-affiliated losers present here) in the upcoming 
months.

                                          Teetotaler, Champion of the Gate

                            RAMBLINGS FROM WITHIN THE KEEP

     I see the Being of Lights was encountered again this turn.  Poor Tagan.  Don Juan 
was, once again, unable to beat a Firecat.  Delbaeth, can you give us any more 
information on that "Feathered Serpent" you met?  And thanks for rescuing Ta'ra's body 
from its clutches.  That must have been one nasty Earth Dragon.  Falstaff didn't have 
too much trouble with the one he fought in the tourney.  And that was after it had 
already torn Opus apart (just like in the tourney).  Congrats to all the victors, and 
thanks for your participation.
     21 new warriors joined us after the split.  Only four more warriors fought this 
turn, though.  I hope the rest of you newbies get your feet soon and join in.  I have 
to admit, I was hoping for more to have answered Sheila's call to duty.  I predict 
that many of those who chose the path more travelled by will have reason to regret 
that choice.

     Oh, yeah.
     Skek came to me yesterday to talk about Kaikwok inhabitants.  It seems that he 
felt you warriors were getting more hurt than was appropriate to the wound during our 
little tourney this month.  Me, I never would have noticed.  I'm not much of a doctor.  
Anyway, he was telling me he decided to do a little research into this, and found out 
that many of the creatures here exude poisons, or use them on their weapons.  A wide 
variety of poisons.  "Neurological, anaphylactic, metabolic, and others more bizarre," 
he said.  Whatever that means.  He asked me to request samples of these creatures (or 
weapons, where appropriate) to use in studies to help try to create antidotes.  He 
promises to be more lenient on those he resurrects while he has this request out.

                                          -- Oscar

                               PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE

All -- The Tournament was... rather fun... in a way. -- Noriel, still not all there

Skybreaker -- Sorry. -- Noriel

Executioner -- Congrats on your tourney win!  So much for the Pretenders to the throne
like Vengeance, Teetotaler, Psycho and Donnie.  Long live the King. -- Papa Bear

Commission -- I love the tournament format -- great mix of opponents, increased
opportunity to learn and a new twist on the winning requirement.  One of my guys went
1-9 against the locals and still got a tv!  He's death on monsters.  Suggestion for
next time:  eliminate Sulphurous Lizard and Begin of Lights.  One's too easy and one's
too tough. -- Papa Bear

    Papa Bear -- Are you a magician, too?  Curiouser and curiouser.  It must be an 
    imposter.  Papa Bear never writes personal ads, or so I've heard.  Thanks for your 
    vote of approval.  Almost enough to make me blush.  As to the changes, I wanted 
    one fight that everyone *should* win, just as a gauge to see if I was doing things 
    right.  I really didn't know that Being of Lights was that tough!  He'd only been 
    fought once before and there wasn't really a good gauge of his abilities. -- Oscar

                                  FACE-TO-FACE XX

     Can you believe that this will be the 20th Face-to-Face???
     We have settled on a date for the next winter Face-to-Face:  January 30th-
February 1st, Friday through Sunday.  It'll be at the Ramada Valley Ho Hotel in 
downtown Scottsdale, Arizona (6850 Main Street).  Room rates are $90.00 per night for 
singles and doubles.  They are offering free suite upgrades while they are available--
you just need to ask when you make your reservations.  The rooms are blocked, so you 
can call ahead to reserve your room (tell them you're with the Reality Simulations 
tournament).  Their phone number is 800-321-4952.  You'll want to fly into the Phoenix 
Sky Harbor airport, and there's a free airport shuttle to the hotel. 
     The tournament information sheet and strategy sheet should be out soon.
     See you there!
