Skralhk the howler was a young girl once, she played with her friends and talked to her parents, full of life, exept for one odd quirk, she always wanted to be a mummy, when she played tag, she would always move in a stiff manner, and howl, maybe she didn't know mummies howled, but in her mind they did, until one day she went to a small pyramid near her village, the elders always told kids to stay away, but the promise of seeing a real mummy, couldn't stop her, as she entered the pyramid, she came across a small bridge, where she would meet her fate, the door closed behind her and cast the room into darkness, she was startled and fell down, onto what was luckily the room of an ancient necromancer, that brought her back to life, after all his second mummy was in need of replacement after a bloody Treeman fell on top of him, ending his undeath.
Although she is not actually of royal nobility, the necromancer thought, who would care as long as the right papper work was filled out.

Afonso the Fish, as he is now known was once Afonso the Explorador, he searched the lands far and wide, discovering secret tombs, amazing landscapes, deadly mountains, and some say even the fountain of Undeathly death, whatever that means.
He met his grisly fate one afternoon, as he sailed with a fleet of 5 ships from his King, off to find where the fabled Fish city of gurglegurgleblubblub,
As his watchman yelled for a sighting, he walked off into the deck and slipped on a pile of fish, falling into the sea.

Years later however, someone found his body washed ashore, with what seemed to be scales all over him, and several dead fish next to him.
After being Resurrected by a secret Necromancer of the court he had told of how he had not indeed died when he fell into the water, but simply gone into a portal, into a misterious land, where iron clad warriors were fighting over balls, it was there where he had begun his bloodbowl carrer, which ended shortly after some local residents were sick of his fish smell and threw him off the harbour to his death.

Kalden was the greatest swordsman in all the lands of his kingdom, having beaten every challenger, and never loosing a battle.
But never mind that, once someone gets killed by slipping on a rock, after a reaching the end of a large chain of deadly mountains, long standing titles seem to be forgotten, in preference for the newest ones. I mean who can really remember all those battles and duels he fought, when he fell down into a riverer and died because he couldn't turn over.
The Necromancer who animated this player was incredably lucky, winning hi local sports league, granted they where all peasant formed teams, but Kalden came out as MVP of every single match.

Legless Larry, was once simply called Larry, his leglessness came about one sunny day on a hiking trail, having such a happy day, he saw what looked like a small ball, maybe dropped by an old hicker, little did he know it was a lion gnawing on a bloodbowl ball, it became quite aparent once it was ripping his leg appart.
It wasn't all bad, larry was soon found by some undead zombies, that were out looking for their practice ball, thus began his bloodbowl carer.
