Overlord Challenge Results!

[DUEL Roman]

On Thursday, April 12 in the year marked 2007 by our calender, I officiated a challenge for the Overlordship. The 71st Overlady of the Duel of Swords, Anjolie Cynthia Quinn....did accept the challenge of the Warlord Harris D'Artanian, a man renowned for his accomplishments in the Outback and his being shaped like a potato. The challenger had in tow two former Barons, Nova Grey Shadow and Var Medici-Giovanni, the latter serving as his Second. His Lady of Honor was Sheyleigh. He dueled with a falcata and under the sponsorship of Snickers and Nike. The Overlady dueled with two silver sais. Her husband, former Overlord Johnathan Ecorian Havoick, stood as her Second but not her Lord of Honor.

The Overlady chose a Best of Three series, and over the course of the night, the entire series was played out before a large, boisterous crowd. The challenger took the first duel despite an initial misstep, reading the Overlady's movements well. The first duel's score was 5-3 in 9 rounds.

The Overlady had ground to make up...and she ended up doing so when she took the second duel, overcoming the challenger's early lead to win 5-4 in 9 rounds. Fatigued and wishing for closure, the duo traded furiously in the first two rounds. From there, Harris took control, scoring in the next three rounds without answer to become the 72nd Overlord of the Duel of Swords.

Karen Wilder, Baroness of Seaside, declared herself Renegade, while Baroness Rena Cronin declared Loyalty.

All hail Harris D'Artanian, the first tuber-shaped Overlord in the history of the Arena!!!

((round by round results to be up at some point before the 2008 Presidental election))
