Fangdir of the famed Cavournut is a fearsome warrior and hunter, famed for his ability with a harpoon and for killing the great whale, Mohamdir.

Fangdir's great love, however, was to gamble and this was to prove his downfall. On a drunken night after a successful whale hunt, Fangdir ended up accepting a bet with a mysterious stranger.

The stranger bet him a golden suit of diamond encrusted armour and the most beautiful sword Fangdir had ever seen that Fangdir could not throw a blood bowl ball as far as he could. In exchange, if Fangdir lost, he would have to join the local blood bowl team and play until he was 'retired' by fate.

Fangdir was so bedazzled by the craftmanship of the armour and sword that all it took was a quick demonstration of the swords deadliness for him to agree to the bet.

Little did Fangdir know that it was Loki the God of Mischief that he had just agreed to compete against and he was hapless in the face of Loki's magical throw. Fangdir, a man of his word, found himself signing up to the Ride of the Valkyrians the next day... Much to the delight of Loki whose cunning plan was gradually coming together.

In his first match, Fangdir was to prove Loki right and scored against a fierce Norse team in a local derby match to equalize and ultimately secure a draw.
