Howdy all,
Thanks for being so patient with the Stunty revamp. There is still a lot going on and hopefully it will all be done soon and we can enjoy playing more and discussing skills less. I promised a reveal today, and here it is.
When Chance and Christer did the FUMBBL Dice Kickstarter we had a pledge level to create your own Stunty star. I can now let you know our awesome supporter was Lorebass. Thanks.
...and this is his story.
Even amongst the ranks of great hideous beasts, wild contraptions and all manner of races, Lorebass is still a quite peculiar sight in the Stunty Leeg. When he steps out onto the pitch he receives equal parts applause and awe. For it is beyond belief to see a Dark Elf of such small stature.
As with all Dark Elves who don’t meet the rigid breeding standards of Naggaroth, he was tossed into the sea, likely on a raiding mission against Ulthuan. How the infant managed to survive the ordeal is of legend and only for the gods to know. But survive he did and the baby was brought to Araby originally. The engraved silver bracelet he bore noted his name as Lorebass and it marked him to be of noble lineage. He was raised by a wealthy merchant family whose caravan travelled the Southlands and occasionally into the Old World. The travels with his adopted family made him strong, wise and worldly.
The best part of travelling for Lorebass was by far was the football games. He watched any and all matches he could, from Pygmies playing in the grasslands of the far South to once sneaking into the main stadium in Brettonia to watch a cup final. More than anything he wanted to step onto the pitch and play and he spent every free moment practicing. As he came into adulthood he was still short, but began to play with anyone who would let him while on his travels. Despite his size, others soon learned he did not similarly lack strength or resilience. He quickly made a name for himself across the lands.
By maturity he had become something of legend in his own right amongst in amateur circles he played in. He was approached by head scouts from the Stunty Leeg who, not knowing where to put the talented Dark Elf, said he could choose any team to play for. Instead of choosing one team, Lorebass chose to play for them all. He never forgot his abandonment as an infant and swore he would never be so intolerant himself. His unique attitude and ability now see him playing for anyone who would have him in the greatest stadiums of the land. And just for fun, he still occasionally sneaks in, even when he is playing.

Many of the Stunty stars will get a price reductions as they are just too much right now. He is the cost of three linemen, so not too cheap. |

Yup, increments of 5 and no thousands (in my mind). Fixing CRP one step at a time. 
The old rule books are in gold pieces. Is crowns some WFB thing? |

Aim for the head! Or maybe tickle his nose and he'll scratch it and accidentally gouge his eye out.
He is nice, though. Not sure whether to hire him or foul him! |

Has anyone hired Lorebass yet? Did he help your team or fail miserably?
We need stories! |
