                             Notes from the arena champ.

WHOO!  WHOO!  ALL ABOARD!  The Black Express is now leaving on track one, headed for 
the Isle of the Eye!  Sit back, and enjoy the scenery, kids.
Inheriting the throne by defeating a stand-in may be a little anticlimactic, but I'll 
take it, for sure. Put me over the top to get Lady Greywand's attention. Not too many 
true challengers for the throne right now. I'll probably face off against Port Finish 
or Seius Glabrio next turn. (That Port Finish may not have the most sparkling record, 
but he certainly has been tough on Neon's guys here in Mordant.) We'll see if either 
can withstand me using my newly minted favorites (which, to be honest, are pretty 
crappy.)
I would also like to congratulate my teammate (if not actual stablemate), Pinprick, 
for earning his invite to the Isle as well.  Pinprick has faced stiff competition his 
entire career, but he truly rose to the occasion. He had a reputation for going the 
distance, for penetrating even the toughest defenses. He worked harder than any 
gladiator on record, thrusting himself into training with a relentless, driving 
passion. Opponents found themselves unable to handle his rapid, insistent jabs. When 
the Isle of the Eye was scouting for worthy immortals, they watched Pinprick go all 
night, never once losing his rhythm, never once going soft under pressure, until his 
exhausted opponent finally collapsed beneath him. Some men earn glory through size and 
brute force; Pinprick earned his through sheer, unyielding stamina and the surprising, 
unrelenting power of a name everyone underestimatedb"until they felt it.
Until we meet on the Isle, Mordant!  May the gods guide your blows straight and true!

                                       -- Freight Train, Duelmaster and Lord Protector

                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, in MORDANT a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor.  
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news.  It seems the training can make the 
difference, as BLACK ARMADA is pushed out of top team by BLACK JUNTA, who came from 
2nd with a 3-1-0 this turn.  Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for there are 
sorrows to drown for THE BLACK EXPRESS, whose 0-2-0 this turn dropped them by 5 into 
9th.  FANTASIA stable has parlayed this turn's 3-1-0 into a 6 space move up the 
rankings.  This brings them up to 8th place.  Good work, guys!  The CARE LESS BEARS 
guild has had a 3-0-0 turn and deserves to be watched in the future.  You never know 
where this kind of thing can lead.  And let's see, BANGIN' MONK fought CHARK 
FORKBEARD and gained 19 points and contributed to BLACK MONASTARY's 4-1-0.  
EDGEDANCER has lost to RAFFI THE GARROTE, falling 25 points, while helping make BLACK 
JUNTA a 3-1-0 turn.  And not without some honor, FREDDIE'S CAT now claims the title 
and throne of Duelmaster of MORDANT.  Tell me, is nothing sacred?  I have heard from 
unimpeachable sources that Conan's Place uses trolls in their stew.  Talk about 
gristle!   
     The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more 
could a warrior ask of life?  Well, besides that.  EMU'S SPAWN has cause to stand 
tall, as they were MORDANT's most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this is a team 
to beat.  And guess who avoided EMU'S SPAWN stable the most?  Believe it or not, it 
was ENTERPRISE.  Anyone surprised?  The most challenged warrior this turn was CARE 
LESS BEARS' warrior SPYWARE BEAR.  More fighters challenged him than challenged the 
Duelmaster!  SPYWARE BEAR from CARE LESS BEARS took a risk this turn by bravely 
challenging up 26 points in a TV challenge against PORT FINISH.  And crowds were on 
their feet when SPYWARE BEAR claimed a victory from PORT FINISH, and now has 108 
points for his efforts.   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  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.   
     Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe.  Dare 
to fight bravely.  It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your 
swords sharp and your hammers heavy.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to 
paper-- Alarond the Scribe

                         BLOODGAMES 2026 -- corrected (dates)

Back by popular demand, we will be hosting a new slow Bloodgames mailed arena 
beginning in September. We also plan our usual Bloodgames arenas at the winter and 
summer Face-to-Face tournaments.  

For those of you who always wanted the chance to manage the last warrior standing 
alive upon the arena sands, your day has come.  The Bloodgames are coming! 

At the end of the ten turns, even though several warriors, bruised and scarred, MAY 
yet live, only one will be crowned Champion of the Bloodgames.  And in this game mere 
survival counts for little.  A great general once said, "The object of battle is not 
to die for your cause, but to make your enemy die for his."  This general would have 
greatly enjoyed the Duelmasters Bloodgames.  Here are the particulars: 

  Face-to-Face style Bloodgames  Turn 1 is due by Fri at 9pm at the hotel
  (Winter: DM 96, Summer: DM 98) Turns process with the tournament 
                                 Strategy changes allowed, bloodfeud challenges only 

  Mail-in style Bloodgames       Turn 1 is by Sat at 9pm at the hotel
  (Winter: DM 97, Summer: DM 99) All turns process overnight, mail-in style.
                                 No strategy changes; all ten rounds process one
                                 after the other and results will be out Sun morning.
 
  Slow Bloodgames (DM 95):       Turn 1 is due Weds September 23 
                                 Turns process every 28 days
	                         Strategy changes allowed, bloodfeud challenges only 
          
Gameplay proceeds according to standard DM rules, except for a few notable exceptions: 

BLOODGAMES ROLLUP --  Your Bloodgames team is ten warriors, one of each fighting 
style, each warrior designed from scratch!  (All are DYOs (design your owns) with 84 
points, 3-21, as usual.) To submit your rollup, just write/type them up and send them 
in.  We'll mail or email your overviews and you can write up your strategies. Your 
warriors must be created and have strategies entered by the first due date. 

DEATH -- As the name implies, the Bloodgames will leave the arena sands somewhat 
darker before they're over.  It's a dangerous sport intended only for the tough and 
spirited.  The Arenamaster will be less likely to intercede on behalf of a dying 
warrior.  Even at a 1 kill desire, kill attempts will occur.

REPLACEMENTS AND ROLLUPS -- There will be no replacement characters.  

CHALLENGES AND STRATEGIES -- In the turn-based bloodgames, there are no regular 
challenges, only bloodfeuds.  There will be no DA challenges in any of the bloodgames 
arenas.

MISSED TURNS -- All warriors fight each round.  Only the dead may rest.

ERRORS -- If we make an input error, that warrior will be awarded a win and kill.  
Errors must be reported before the next turn processes.  

NEWSLETTER -- Warriors are ranked according to their number of kills.  Champions of 
Bloodgames may write a column for the newsletter at the end of the games. 

FEES -- A Bloodgames rollup costs a $10 set-up fee.  Managers may roll up more than 
one team but may run only one team in each arena.  The fee for all ten rounds is $49. 

AWARDS -- The Bloodgames last ten rounds.  Only warriors who survive to the end of 
Turn 10 will be eligible for an award.  However, a consolation award of a Bloodgames 
T-shirt will be awarded to the dead warrior with the most kills.

The living warrior with the greatest number of kills will be the Bloodgames Champion.  
Bloodgames Victor titles, 2nd and 3rd place will be awarded to those living warriors 
with the greatest number of kills at the end of Turn 10, with one other important 
consideration:  Each of these three warriors must be of a different fighting style.  
Win/loss records and, if necessary, recognition points will only be used to determine 
awards if there is a tie.  

The Bloodgames Champion fights for free in Advanced Duelmasters, and all Champions and 
Victors earn Tournament Victor status, which allows them to challenge once per turn 
with increased priority.  These awards last for six months.  The manager of the 
Bloodgames Champion and Victors will receive Bloodgames T-shirts.

A Bloodgames T-shirt will be awarded to the manager of the team with the most kills.  
T-shirts will only happen if someone gives us a nice design. One shirt per person.

AFTERMATH -- Warriors from the Bloodgames may not transfer to any other arena.  Once 
the games are over, the arena and teams will be disbanded.  The fighters have won 
their freedom and will never more be seen in the gladiatorial games.  A special bonus 
will, however, be awarded to the 1st through 3rd place warriors.  Lady Sheila 
Greywand, of the Isle of the Eye, has consented to allow the top three gladiators in 
each Bloodgames admission to the Advanced Duelmasters games.  Any special training 
required to qualify those three warriors for Advanced Duelmasters combat will be 
conducted before transfer into ADM.  Astute managers will note that this means that 
three warriors that are designed from scratch will survive the Bloodgames, win one of 
the top three places, and go on to immortal glory!  One of those warriors could be 
yours!

         The challenge is yours to take.  The final plans are yours to make.  
           When the dust settles, remember:  To the victor goes the spoils!
