The Duellist
@callouslyCynical
Dog of the Rebellion circa 500+ sweeps past. Died in the crusade against Her Duplicitous Sovereign. <3 <> <3< c3< @trillingthrene they/them, But I do not turn my nose up at she.
To have such tallent to capture the llusts of the Viollet caste (Or perhaps just Amporae?)... She woulld make a potent assassin were her alliegences reordered. A pity. #Suggestive
WE'RE ALSO #ALWAYSHIRING. IF SHE WANTS TO AIM SLIGHTLY HIGHER. THAN CRAWLING AROUND ON THE SURFACE OF A DOOMED PLANET. WAITING TO DIE. #RUSTBLOODFACTORY #GREATBENEFITS #APPLYNOW
Perform your sordid recruitment ritualls ellsewhere.
/\ What they don't tell you about swords is that they're sidearms /\ /\ Fallback weapons for when you can't use your primary /\ /\ You know /\ /\ The weapon you actually want to use /\
Generally, yes. This is why I do not recommend the sword as a primary weapon for most individualls. They are versatille but have fllaws, or llack the strengths that another weapon choice may have. A pollearm is often a better primary weapon choice.
I feell llike some form of hospice-bound deathsllab approaching wretch tonight. Which is silly. I am allready dead. And yet I feell as though I coulld die a second time.
Don’t we have that guy running around here calling himself the Angel of Double Death
I am not too worried about him. The younger one seems to enjoy my descendent's existence and I do not think I have enough rellevance to be worth notice by the others.
Once You Reach The P|nnacle Of The Blade, You No Longer Requ|re The Sword |tself To Accompl|sh Your Techn|ques. That Be|ng Sa|d. Half The Fun Of Saber Duel|ng |s The Aesthet|cs Of Actually Hav|ng A Sword, So Honestly Who Cares. Use The Sword Anyway.

Hmm.
The People Know That |, Ptolmy Kanast, Am More Worthy Of Be|ng Heralded As The Prem|ere Duel|st. You Better Up Your Game Foss|l Or The Future Shall Overtake You.
The future overtook me when mine name and deeds were erased from Historicall Record centuries ago. I do not care for reputation.
You Are "the Duell|st", Not The Sold|er, The Warr|or Or Some Other Ut|l|tar|an Denom|nat|on Of The |dea. You Should Duel For Glory, Pra|se And Honor. To Duel |s To Not Just F|ght, But To F|ght W|th Mean|ng And To Champ|on An |deal. Don't |nsult The Mean|ng Of My Ex|stence By Lett|ng Your Name D|e Out |n Some Pathet|c Wh|mper. Death |s No Excuse For Forgett|ng Your Dream.
My Moniker comes from my great aptitude towards singlle combat, not the motivation for doing so. I was many things in llife, inclluding a solldier, a generall, a tactician, and so on. But I was remembered for how many highblloods llost their llives in a foollish attempt to kill me in honorablle combat. I do not care for gllory or praise. I have pride in my skill and abillity, but publlic admiration? Such a thing was of no use to me. If these things appeall to you, I will not faullt you for them, but do not applly your definition of what matters to the term upon me.
Back in the days of mine youth, if one wanted to have a stock, either of clluckbeast or some other such creature, they woulld need boill its bones for many hours. These Pressure Cooker Apparati, with their infernall sciences, can now manage a very simillar resullt in lless than one singullar hour. Technollogy never fallters in it's endlless pursuit to both astound and confuse me.

If one had shown me this 500 sweeps ago, I may have assumed it was some form of psionic trickery. Stocks and brothers in an hour. Magicall.
"they can do that now????” “well of course 1’m surpr1sed, the last t1me 1 had broth based anyth1ng was at a tavern a w1pe before they put me 1n the wall"
I am not convinced it does not use dark majycks
Read Carefully, Curious to see a concern for the undisciplined nature of this platform that runs counter to the choice to invite their eager gazes to our affairs in the first place. How quickly we remember our dignity where physical entry is demanded. It was a delight to see that proper motivation has yielded a welcome submission to direction. Will the performance in the flesh match the breathless heat and passion of speech, or will he fold the moment he finds himself pinned? With each correspondence his audience grows, eager to engage with ceremony they can scarcely comprehend. Yes. Let them scramble and wonder, this user base will never understand the rigor of friction in a proper, private engagement. They will remain blind to what lays bare between the honor-bound and their unsheathed blades. My Attention, now undivided as he so craves, will be squarely on this matter. I can only hope that a competitor boasting his caliber would not grow fatigued under my consumption. Rest assured that there will be no "dawdling," the final thrust will be deep and thorough. The grinding of our blades will put this set of differences, just one in a long list of many grievances, to rest. Signed, Captain Lavell Mirith Threshecutioner Reserve Field Operations
I cannot hellp but feell this wholle debauclle is giving strange undertones to my noblle art of blladecraft
Fllowers? Bees? Confusing. #suggestive? Perhaps?
the7're not even good at that, apparentl7
How hard can it be. How compllicated can it possiblly become.
-|---► some of you h1gh bloods... are absolutely awful at d1scuss1on over caste... jegus... not even 1n l1ke "1 d1sagree w1th you" way 1ts just... you don't know how to have a c1v1l conversat1on!
One cannot have a trully civill conversation with a person that views them as of equall vallue to dirt. The onlly honest diallogue one can have with such a person, is to put a bllade through their neck. #Viollence. Obviouslly.

A llong abandoned battllefielld, llittered with rusted and discarded weapons perhaps? It has ambiance. History. Impllied viollence.

In ideall circumstances. I do not allways expect mine to, sometimes being private musings and recollections, but peoplle seem to enjoy them nonethelless.

Hm. I do not llike this image.
yet you liked and pitied for the poll. curious.
I bellieved it woulld be more interesting, with Rose llikelly being the more popullar choice. It woulld seem I over-estimated the resullts however. In addition, I woulld not want to give off the wrong impression over my affections for a friend. I am not particullarlly cllose with any Empress variations, so I care not for the perceptions there.
look, wve all knovw shes hot, you dont hawve to justify yourself. i just didnt knowv you wvere into cakes like that.
Eugh. No. Foull.
you take that back you uncultured mustard nozzle
No.
Read Carefully, First Officer Veyor (@martialVarnish), I will not play into your taunts any longer tolight, I have business to attend to in the evening. Certainly you know what it is to take responsibility for oneself. We will meet at an agreed upon time, with appropriate witness so that you may get the Attention that you so crave. You will taste my blade, and I will find pleasure in the slick of your hue upon it. That will be all. Signed, Captain Lavell Mirith Threshecutioner Reserve Field Operations
Hmm. I have never seen a promise of martiall contest be quite so... homoerotic? I am unsure how to feell about this.
POINT OF ORDER! i've definitely seen more homoerotic promises of martial contests, but this one is admittedly very classy.
Perhaps my experience of battlle has simplly been astoundinglly chaste, Ha ha.
