Anita Hedd was born into the French bourgeoisie during a time of great political unrest. Her wealth and status could not protect her when the French Revolution broke out and she was accused of being a counter-revolutionary. She was publicly beheaded and her body was left unburied for days as a warning to others. However, her spirit was not at peace and she returned as a lumberjack skeleton, condemned to work for the very industry that destroyed her beloved forests. Despite her tragic past, Anita found solace in the camaraderie of her fellow undead loggers and even joined their Blood Bowl team as a way to channel her anger into something positive.
