Jesiah "Master of Falcons" has died!
https://www.fumbbl.com/p/player?player_id=8796523
Superstar thrower of the Averheim Plebeians
https://www.fumbbl.com/p/team?op=view&team_id=703347
Jesiah was a fast, agile, blodge, tackling superstar thrower and backup blitzer/sweeper.
Jesiah transitioned well to Blood Bowl. Quite early in his career the team was known for being Elflike as Jesiah worked together with an agile catcher and a blitzer. When the others were gone he played on at a high level. The Plebeians were beaten down a number of times and he brought the team through for victories even when we were lacking blitzers and running loners. In fact not long ago the team won 6 in a row, and were unbeaten in 10, despite lacking a full side.
With over 120 spps dreams were moving towards legendhood. Alas not easy in the Box and he was cruelly cut down. Now the team lacks any sort of thrower, nevermind a carrier as effective as him.
The team has been through 51 matches. He has never even missed one! Which makes the sudden death more shocking. If he had permed he would probably been healed with a scroll. But alas no chance with his death.
The 51 matches were spread over 7 years! His good luck depleted.
Jesiah's final match ended early for him when the legend, claw tackle Chaos Warrior dodged out and struck him while out of protection. The claw just made it through his armour and gave a killing blow. The apo had been used minutes earlier to fix up a badly hurt Blitzer! To add insult to injury the player who had been fixed by the apo was niggled and retired from another claw hit that match.
RIP Jesiah. Averheim will not see your like again.
Game examples-

Rated 6. Jesiah played bloodbowl longer than I have, a true slugger for humanity in the box! |
