Cheiftain Ullric, or Ulli as he is called for short by his companions, is the Captain of the Northern Brawlers and is a towering figure amongst his fellow Norscans. Restless and filled with wonder lust, Ullric lead his tribe to the Old World in order to gain their fortune in the fields of Blood Bowl. After making a deal with a shady figure called Wuarzahg, the Norse were optimistic about their chance in entering their first league located in Middenhiem. Unfortunately they were betrayed and their position in the league forfeited. After a brutal encounter thanks to the timely return of the Goonz, the Northern Brawlers were forced to retreat from the city of Middenheim.

Despite this setback, Ullric lead the team off to find another way to satiate their battle lust. Fortunately their deities smiled upon them, and they found a place in the brutal and daring fields in the Open Tournaments. Since then it is common to see Ullric leading the team from the front in their matches and it is thanks to his leadership the future of the Northern Nasty Brawlers is looking very bright.

Hallbjorn is the type of person every Norse aspires too. Wrestling Polar bears from when he was just a teenager and emptying the beer houses stores over a night, Hallbjorn was truly a Norse player and was ideal for the position of team Berserker.

Unlike Agnar, Hallbjorn is far more controlled (Although still violently bloodthirsty) and is seen with great respect by his fellow Norscans for his fighting prowess. Indeed, it is rumoured Hallbjorn has managed to take down a Troll all by himself! Or at least...that is what he likes to boast during the more jolly nights of beer drinking.

However, Blood Bowl is a merciless sport and Hallbjorn is one of the finer examples of this harsh fact. Despite his skull being fractured and now his speed being hindered by a smashed ankle, Hallbjorn continues in his attempts to bring down the hardiest of foes for the team but due to these injuries, he is simply not the same ferocious warrior he once was.

***Career Blunders**

Recently suffered a groin strain after an akward slip during an attempt to intercept the enemy ball carrier.

Bulrik is a savage and unrelenting Norse, sporting great fangs,claws and strength which leaves many of his fellows green with envy. Being one of the few Northerners blessed with the ability to shape shift into an Ulfwerener, Bulrik is considered the muscle behind the Northern Brawlers, and is generally seen trying to tie up the hardest of the enemy opposition.

A fierce and competitive player (Not unlike the rest of the team), Bulrik is generally found where the most brutal of the fighting is on the pitch. While he does have significantly greater strength beyond that of the rest of his team, his animalistic savagery hinders his fighting skills and as such, while certainly an imposing individual, a sturdy and well trained opponent can generally bring him down.

His gusto however has, similar to his friend Hjalti, gotten the better of him as he has recently received a gouged eye during a particularly brutal mosh fest against a Slann team.

Shiverclan Chillroar is the second Yhetee to be recruited to the Northern Nasty Brawlers. This has less to do with the fact the Northern Nasties require extra muscle, which they are certainly not lacking, but more to do with the dramatic increase in casaulties being suffered by the team in recent matches. Ullric was once more reluctant to bring another Yhetee into the team, but from desperate pleas from many of his linemen and collegues, Shiverclan Chillroar now occupies a space on the roster. While Ullric has not forgotten the painfully short career and dreadful performance of Frostkin Terrorclaw, he too had to acknowledge the team was seeing hard times. And having an extra beefy body to soak up the hits couldn't hurt too much.

Shiverclan of course is like most yhetees. Ferociously violent, extremely loud and showing little to no sign of real intelligence beyond an oversized and violent animal. It has yet to be seen if he can outdo his predecessor, but this should not be too difficult to accomplish considering Frostkin survived for less than half a match.

Despite his performance both in his durability and maiming of the opposition, Shiverclan has now recently gained the nickname of "Fuzzy" or "Snowball" by the team, due to his notorious fragile nature. While yes the Snow Trolls of the North certainly come with a sharp pair of claws, it seems too that they are simply not cut out for the BB pitch, as Shiverclan has been depitched thus far in every one of his matches, either receiving a quick match ending injury or a quick shot to the head knocking the beast out.

One of the more notable warriors of the team, Egilbjorg was recruited soon after he followed Ullric and the rest of the tribe to Middenhiem. Having only awoken from a rather mead ridden night, it was only the next day did Egil actually realise the rest of the tribe had left without him! It wasnt long till he arrived in the Old World and intends to show the youngsters of the Brawlers what it really means to fight as a true Norscan!

The Pain a.k.a Einar, was actually not an original member of Ullric's tribe. Instead, he was a Norscan who had travelled many years ago to the Old World to find his way in life. Unsurprisingly, the young Norscan found a longing for the Wrestling Ring, and had grown a great passion for the sport and being granted the name "The Pain". Ullric and Iarl attending the BBF [Bluddy Bashinz Fedurashion] noticed his talent and offered him a place on the team. While the young Norseman had never been in contact with his people for many years, he always did long to be re united with his kin and took up the job. Following him too were a huge host of fans which has brought great support to the Northern Nasty Brawlers in the stands.

The Pain is now also the first berserker replacement to actually be of decent standard which is certainly a relief to the team as they were getting tired of loud mouth berserkers who would get themselves killed sooner rather than later.

While most Norse are known for their habits of getting into fights and their notoriously violent nature, Eric the Red is by far the most foul playing. Nothing satisfies this Norse more than giving a good boot to anyone unfortunate enough to be in his way. The fact that he fouls so much and is spotted by the ref so often has made him the longest lasting lineman and member of the team. Despite this frequent occurance, Eric has managed to leave many opposing players in a bloody mess after giving them a proper boot and has managed to contribute many victories to the team as a result.

Easily recognisable on the pitch thanks to his great red beard, and the loud crunching sounds he leaves in his wake has made him a fan favourite.

Replacement of Hjalti, Sculf is in every way as fierce and violent as his predecessor. Unofurtnately like all Ulfkin, Sculf has the poor habit of allowing his anger to overwhelm him, and as such, tends to be amongst the first to be karted off the pitch.
