A veteran of over 30 Bloodbowl games without ever being injured or carded, and without ever scoring a single point or playing without a hangover. Nobody actually knows his real name or where he comes from, scientists reckon he could be over 200 years old, but he's always remained coy about his age.

He first made his debut at the Semi Finals of the Spike Cup 4 years ago, apparantly he was looking for a pub and wandered into the stadium by mistake. Drunken and angry he mistakenly thought that one of the referees had called him a nancyboy, and so he killed him, several spectators and half of the winning team.

Fortunately the magistrate at his trial was a Bloodbowl fan and was impressed with the violence of it all and the case was thrown out. When asked why this monster had been freed the judge replied "Look at that face, how can you say no to that face", and so the legend of Captain Slaughter was born.

To date, Slaughter has been utterly useless on the pitch but his recent return from rehab and a new mentor in player-manager Razor could see him curb his famous drunken aggression and violence to pub landlords and autograph hunters to the game instead.
