Andreas Bichel, who mutilated young female victims during 1806-1809 may have been a model for the later crimes attributed to the unknown killer, Jack the Ripper. Bichel, known as the Bavarian Ripper enticed young women to his home with the promise of having their fortunes told. The killer would bring the women he had met in the Bavarian marketplaces to his home where, he promised he would tell them of their futures.

Unfortunately for the killer’s victims, their futures ended when they entered his home. The victims would be knocked unconscious and stripped. When they awoke they would be bound and gagged. The young female victims were then raped and tortured before being murdered by Bichel. Like Jack the Ripper’s victims eighty years later, the girls were cut open from their pubic bone to their sternum.

However Bichel’s victims were still very much alive when the mutilations began. Bichel would spend time scooping out his victims’ internal organs as they writhed in pain. The killer was only caught after attempting to sell the clothes of his victims. He was executed in 1809 for his crimes.

When asked what he thought about signing up on a Bloodbowl team to try and win his hand at redemption, he said "Blood what???"
