During their most recent
match, the
Sons of Brutus had an assassination attempt on their legendary catcher
Snatch Engo.
Snatch had only recently attained his legendary status and it was his seventh outing since reaching this milestone. As he released the kick to start the second half a missile was fired from the stands and Snatch was buried under a 90kg rock. Such was the force that his kicking boot (and the foot inside it) went flying, hiting rotter Fredrick Strongbone square in the face.
The Apothecary was able to revive Snatch Engo from was looked to be a terminal injury, even recovering and attaching the missing foot. Unfortunately the Apothecary was unable to repair all, and the spinal damage that Snatch suffered lingers on, threatening further serious injury should he play on.
Whether this was an attack on the team, or something more personal. On one hand there was a subsequent fireball attack shortly after the rock took down Snatch. On the other, the catcher did attract an investigation early in his career surrounding corruption within the sport. For those of you with extra arms, it is worth noting the third hand, how was the Engo family fortune made?
A reward of 100,000 gold for the head of the person or persons responsible for this attack has been offered, with the Skavenblight based law firm
Whiscur, Klaus & Tayels posting this bounty on behalf of an anonymous sponsor.
