SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in MORDANT this turn, and let's start
with a look at some of the teams. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for there
are sorrows to drown for FANTASIA, whose 2-3-0 this turn dropped them by 7 into 16th.
BLACK MONASTARY stable has parlayed this turn's 4-1-1 into a 8 space move up the
rankings. This brings them up to 10th place. Good work, guys! The BLACK JUNTA
guild has had a 5-0-1 turn and deserves to be watched in the future. You never know
where this kind of thing can lead. And let's see, TEMPERANCE fought BANGIN' MONK and
gained 21 points and contributed to CHAOS KIDS' 2-1-0. BULKHEAD has lost to THE CAT
BOX, falling 13 points, while helping make BLACK ARMADA a 3-2-0 turn. SPYWARE BEAR
TV challenged for the Duelmastership this turn, attempting to dethrone 1792's
warrior. The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and FULL PROOF remains
MORDANT's top warrior for another turn. Can someone confirm a rumor for me? I hear
the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at Conan's Place until they win.
Maybe?
I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher
friend of mine assures me this is true. FREAK BROTHERS has cause to stand tall, as
they were MORDANT's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to beat.
And avoiding FREAK BROTHERS more than any other team we find CARE LESS BEARS.
MORDANT, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing? Well, sports fans,
take notice that GEORGE from CHAOS KIDS was MORDANT's most challenged warrior this
turn. HOLD-MY-BEER BEAR of CARE LESS BEARS had better have a good reason for
challenging down 12 points in a challenge which he won. I thought HOLD-MY-BEER BEAR
showed great skill and promise when he bested MARCUS MARTULUS. All right, so I slept
through it! Big deal!
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their enemies.
You know who you are; and it's considered rude.
Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the
sweetest. Always good to rest in MORDANT, but never good to wear out my welcome.
Look for me in future turns. Until you see my quill in MORDANT again, farewell--
Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
An inside look at how my tourney guys from Mordant fared. -- Neon Necromancer
Freshmen: Sent 3 Care Less Bears. Unabomb Bear improved to a 6-3 performance.
The other two flamed out without a win.
Challengers: Black Athena and Purple Helmet continued to disappoint; after TVing a
couple tourneys ago, neither got past round five this time. Stygian Warden is
still in his embryonic state (at least for Challengers), so didn't win a fight.
Adepts: Boomer Bear did just okay, going a mediocre 3-3. We'll see if he can improve
on that in Champions.
Apprentices: Dik-Dik also did a mediocre 4-3. Not sure if he has any more tourneys
in his future.
Rookies: The Lookout did the best with a 5-3 performance. Layin' Trax and Celestial
Void didn't make it out of round five, so some improvement could be had there.
All in all, a really underwhelming performance by my Mordant squad. Maybe next time.
