DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
After having various columns disappear or show up in alternate arenas, last turn was
simply a whiff on my part. A Duelmaster should do better. And so I shall.
Now, it seems, I am not just a Duelmaster, but another Lord Protector from the
Sentinels squad, joining my pals Blade Arcana and Ozymandius on the Isle of
Immortality. A goal long sought. For those interested in all of my non-scummy glory:
17-12-6-15-9-14-11, OTP. Because, who doesn't want their TP to be the fastest guy on
the squad? Whatever, it seems to have worked. +3 in Riposte and +4 in Attack also
helped a bit, I suspect. I'd let you in on the secret of my favorites, but I haven't
yet seen the results, so I can't. No doubt they are grand.
And now I leave you, fair Bonsur. if thinks work out I shall be leaving the task of
writing this column for Caroom. Lets see if he can stop bouncing around long enough
to claim a vacant throne.
-- Lord Protector Dawnbringer, Duelmaster of Bonsur
SPY REPORT
Oh, hi. Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte. Thought I'd check out BONSUR to see
what's new. I don't wanna hurt anybody's feelings or anything, but BEACH BABES
really goofed with their 0-2-0. The guys at CHAOS KIDS like really pulled together
to get a 4-1-0 this turn, moving up by 4. MVP award for BUZZSAW? DEMONIC FURY's
proud of him after beating TOMMY and getting 25 points. Talk about yer major upsets!
TOMMY's match with BUZZSAW cost him a loss of 17 points! Oh, wow, like the
Duelmaster must be the most popular beast in all BONSUR. It got the most challenges.
(But what about proposals?) This Duelmaster is like something else! DAWNBRINGER
stopped LEND A HAND dead in his tracks! I hear the top team insists all their
warriors get nine hours sleep. They want photogenic fighters for PR photos.
I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies. Really, I just
wing this stuff. SENTINELS was the most avoided team. Is a 856-612-40 record really
that scary? Is there some deep dark secret why ESPANA's been avoiding SENTINELS so
much? Or is it just that they're too scared? People were asking me did AMANDA
REALLY challenge BETTY BABE? (all right, maybe they didn't, but it sounded good!) It
wasn't a spectacular fight, or anything, but BETTY BABE wants me to write about it
since she was subdued by AMANDA. Satisfied?
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? AVALANCHE really fought hard against NICOLE. That'll teach CRAZY
CO-WORKERS not to go and kill any of CHAOS KIDS' guys again, huh! Hey you guys,
don't you think your families would like to hear from you? Write! (Or have someone
write for you.)
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it
quits. Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby Tonte

Chase and the Reavers -- Challenge away. So far, the Squire has few complaints. --
Nomad and the Sentinels
Scalpi . . Taurus . . . Opterus . . .Terran . . .uhm, something. -- What does that
name mean? It isn't target, is it? Just a guess because names aren't my strong suit.
Drinks at the Red Sands Tavern afterwards, however, are. -- Dawn Squire, still pouring
one out for the Sayer
How exactly does a Gigolo end up in the arena? -- Shan Sunguard
6 strikers, ok, normal. Zero Aimers? What, is everybody getting as tired of them as
I am? But it is allowing those TPs to run a bit wild.
Avalance -- Endurance, eh? -- Star
Caroom -- OUCH! -- Shine
Sand Warben -- Might have gone better if I actually held on to my weapons. -- The Lady
Dawn Squire -- 2-0 vs the Bloodfued. I'd say thanks for all the learns, but... --
Scalpiterai
Grumble Tumble -- Staying on your feet might be a plus. -- Quietus
Dawn Squire -- Yes! 2 more to go for vengeance. -- Reavers
RUG #789 -- Thank You! -- Chase (Manager of Reavers)
