When the Dead Doornails were being formed, the coach was furious to find he had been short-ordered on the fresh player corpses needed for creating the shambling Zombies that form the core of any Undead team. Brushing off the coach's spluttering complaints the team necromancer pulled an old, dusty set of bones that had been rotting in one of the lockers, dressed it up in some bits and pieces of blood bowl equipment, and infused it with his dark magics.

Tiny Tibby, as this newly raised skeleton would be dubbed, had no real role within the team, being not as hardy as the Zombies, nor as speedy as the Wights and Ghouls. He generally kept his skull down, and avoided trouble.

The Dead Doornails third match against Khemri team les Maginots changed that. Fed up with Tibby's cowardice, the coach forced Tibby to charge wildly at Tomb Guardians three times his size. Tiny Tibby discovered a lust for destruction that could only be satisfied by the sound of snapping bones and shattering skulls, as he threw back Tomb Guardians and Khemri Skeletons. A traitor to his fellow skeleton-kind, Tibby knows the only place he belongs (until his own remains are pulverized on the blood bowl pitch) is with the Dead Doornails.
