No one knows the true name of the creature that calls himself the ‘Black Prince’, not even the creature itself. What is known is that he has little regard for anyone or anything beyond himself.

He is brutal to his thralls, whom he refers to as his “flock”. They are utterly bound to him. Their devotion is bordering on religious zeal.

The self-styled ‘Damned Queen’, Gothya is as concerned with her vampiric social standing as she is with her play on the blood bowl pitch. Never one to pass up an interview or an autograph seeker, Gothya is the most popular member of the team.

She has been bound by the blood of the Black Prince, her sire. She is currently seeking a way to break the bond in order to venture out on her own and leave the life (or unlife) of a blood bowl player behind her.

For twelve centuries, Mal has been the mortal enemy of the Black Prince. It was a dark curse that has bound the Marquis into service with the Prince. The pact that holds the Marquis will last for one-thousand and one days.

The monster known only as ‘Grotesque’ is something of an enigma.

On one hand, it is a brutal killer of all living things that cross its path. It is an indiscriminate beast that feeds on his own thralls as much as or even more than anything else.

On the other, it is surprisingly gentle and thoughtful when it comes to Gothya. It is unknown whether she has bound it to her through blood or if it is genuinely infatuated with the dark beauty
