                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

Hi there.

Storm Rock Arena had ten fights today.  There were two stand-ins, and they both won!  
The Champion of the Horn did not write a column -- shame!  Big Lake Solution was 
avoided by Mirkwood Orcs.  And there was just one challenge.

     BURM WOLFSNARL (81-113) (102-75-0,223) of BIG LAKE OUTCASTS challenged MOOSE (56-
3459) (76-101-0,338) of REDHORSE.  BURM WOLFSNARL was viciously subdued by MOOSE in a 
4 minute Challenge Title fight.  Moose is still the Champion of the Horn, and the 
highest ranked Striker.  Mr. Wolfsnarl is the top Total Parry.  Moose is this turn's 
favorite fighter.
     HUMMINGBIRD (56-3475) (103-120-0,216) of REDHORSE fought NARSIL (81-3401) (57-37-
1,181) of MIRKWOOD ORCS.  HUMMINGBIRD savagely defeated NARSIL in an exciting 3 minute 
gory melee.  Hummingbird is still top Slasher.
     ANDURIL (81-3435) (44-40-1,218) of MIRKWOOD ORCS fought IMPRISONED SPY (107-9) 
(0-0-0,181).  ANDURIL was vanquished by IMPRISONED SPY in a 2 minute mismatched brawl.  
Anduril lost 38 recognition points.
     THE LEPER'S HAND (81-2940) (75-42-1,228) of BIG LAKE SOLUTION fought MOD COD (55-
2638) (442-228-5,190) of RHYME TYME.  THE LEPER'S HAND was overpowered by MOD COD in a 
1 minute one-sided fight.  Mod Cod is the leading Lunger and the overall popularity 
leader, and gained 32 points this turn.
     RAT SOLDIER (62-5152) (55-27-0,242) of RODENTIAN NATION fought BUCK (1-2291) (76-
165-0,188) of MOSSRUNNERS.  RAT SOLDIER devastated BUCK in a 1 minute uneven brawl.  
Rat Soldier is our leading Aimed Blow.  Buck is the least favored fighter today.
     JAVELINO (56-3728) (65-76-1,193) of REDHORSE fought RENEGADE-RAT (41-388) (44-38-
3,198) of RAT PAK.  JAVELINO was overpowered by RENEGADE-RAT in a 2 minute one-sided 
struggle.
     BROKEN TOE (56-3683) (73-99-1,200) of REDHORSE fought THE OVEN BIRD (75-3934) 
(51-29-1,196) of DEFROSTED.  BROKEN TOE was overcome by THE OVEN BIRD in an action 
packed 2 minute fight.  The victorious Oven Bird is currently our best Wall of Steel.
     RINGIL (81-3633) (41-28-2,196) of MIRKWOOD ORCS fought THE BLACKSMITH (107-22) 
(0-0-0,181).  RINGIL was viciously subdued by THE BLACKSMITH in an action packed 3 
minute duel.
     LAUDINA (81-3658) (47-31-2,203) of MADNESS fought TEM OF SMALLCLIFF (35-4865) 
(61-74-5,197) of HOUSE JHEREG.  LAUDINA overpowered TEM OF SMALLCLIFF in a popular 2 
minute gory uneven duel.  Laudina is Storm Rock's best Parry-Lunge.
     RAYNER (20-182) (100-151-3,183) of DEADLINE fought TOUCH BASE (32-6828) (68-85-
1,184) of CON + INSULT.  RAYNER was savagely defeated by TOUCH BASE in a popular 2 
minute gory melee.  Despite losing, Rayner is still our best Parry-Riposte.

That ain't much, but it's all I got.  Later.

                               PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE

Moose -- No, it's not an orc name. When we all decided to fight in Shadowspire, we 
needed a team name. We decided to use Mirkwood Orcs to lay claim to Orc ancestral 
homelands and to mock the sissy elves to ran away westward when the going got tough. 
As a mocking insult we also adopted personal combat names of various artifacts 
scattered about Middle-Earth. Sadly our manager has not returned to Shadowspire to 
help guide more of our brethren to the Isle of the Eye. Lack of gold coin has hindered 
his efforts. Hope that answers your question. -- Ringil

The Oven Bird -- Wow! I would've gladly taken a loss to get all those skills I 
learned, but the win was super nice, as well. Thanks. -- Anduril

Hummingbird -- I'm humiliated losing in one minute. I should lose my membership in the 
Alastari TP Club. Grats to you, tho. -- Narsil

Laudina -- Another good fight between us. Good cause I won, but at least we both got 
good trains. -- Rat Soldier

Buck -- Another 6 minute grind for us. I guess it was my turn to eek out a win. Good 
fight. -- Ringil

The Leper's Hand -- Your hand isn't the only body part of yours that's leprous, but 
I'll leave it to you to try and figure out which part is falling off. You being an 
"IT" is telling, as well as funny. LOL -- Renegade-Rat
