Challenge for Overlord

[Kimone Kidd]

There's no reason to waste time thinking about it. It's been my goal since day one.

Melanie, I know we were teammates and all, but I want the Overlord title. I hope you understand that it's not a personal issue, but a professional one.

I hereby challenge you for the title of Overlord.

Good luck!

K.K.

Sorry I fell asleep and didn't get to see you win the challenge grant, Kimone, but good job!

This challenge is valid and may proceed! Good luck to both of you ladies. I'm bringing in a popcorn machine during this match so everybody eats popcorn instead of biting their nails!

[Fourth]

It's all politics isn't it, killer? I'm not hypocritical enough to assume that it's anything personal and I doubt you're arrogant enough to make it that way.

Accepted.

[Kimone Kidd]

[DUEL Dris]

Denizens of the Dueling Community,

Not only am I delighted to have been chosen to officiate this challenge, but it is my honor and privilege to announce that this is a day to note down in the history books!

Overlady Melanie Rostol fought under her own independent and nonexistent standard with Terry King listed as both her Second and her Lady of Honor this evening.

Warlady Kimone Kidd chose a standard bearing the colors of silver and black with Michael "Mick" Maloney similarly listed as both her Second and Lord of Honor.

Melanie chose a Best of Three format for tonight's proceedings.

As with all challenges, I have bribed the Isle's goblins to magically transcribe the results of this match onto the attached scrolls for your review.

In brief, I will tell you that Melanie and Kimone fought only two of a possible three duels. The 99th Overlady gave it a good old college try, but in the end she met her match at the hands of Warlady Kidd.

Kimone Kidd is the 100th Overlord of the Duel of Swords!

Congratulations on your victory, Kimone! Well tried on the defense, Melanie!

Thank you for choosing me, Sheridan "Dris" Driscol, to be your duel official!

DUEL Dris: One for the Money, Round 6: "Kimone charges in, guns -- or tonfas -- blazing, but Melanie's ready and willing to turn that assalut aside with carefully calculated ease. All tied up here too." (FCP / TH) 2 - 2

DUEL Dris: One for the Money, Round 12: "This is where I'm obligated to remind our contestants that this is a battle of weapons and not a dance off, but I'm not going to stop either of ye from doin' what ye do." (SS / SS) 4.5 - 3.0 Kimone

DUEL Dris: One for the Money, Round 13: "Mel plays aggressive, but it's Kimone's simple defense that turns the strike aside for a half point in her favor to take the win of the first match of this contest for the Overlord mantle." (TH / CP) 5 - 3 Kimone

DUEL Dris: Two for the Show, Round 4: "Behold! The superb and spectacular dance stylings of Melanie and Kimone! All that time they spent in AZN together doing those terribly distracting, and I daresay delightful, routines have really paid off, don't you think?" (FSS / FSS) 3 - 0 Kimone

DUEL Dris: Two for the Show, Round 5: "We can continue playing the defensive game as long as you ladies like. I'm fully engaged tonight. Nowhere else I'd rather be." (SH / FCP) 3 - 0 Kimone

DUEL Dris: Two for the Show, Round 9: "Melanie simply does not like Kimone being at match point, and she's not ready to-- Right. What Kimone said. This one's not over yet." (FLP / FSS) 4 - 3 Kimone

DUEL Dris: Two for the Show, Round 10: "Caution is the name of the game when the score's this close one way or another.

DUEL Dris:  Two for the Show, Round 11: "Now we see some action. Both the Overlady and the Warlady go on the offensive! One's quicker than the other, however, and it's Kimone taking the point and the win." (TH / HC) 5 - 3 Kimone

To make it alllll official-like. I don't know the girl and haven't been offered any bribes or anything, so as per the usual, my stance as far as alignment goes is going to be Renegade! But with nothing to fear from me. I got no interest in the OL position and don't anticipate there being a reason for me to mess with challenges.

So, Renegade it is!
