Burkesburg Footpad Club
Added to the team during the ‘Awful Autumn of ‘04’.
Son of the local pigsty keeper. Was reluctantly recruited for the team but Gorbag has a good eye for talent.

Hired for the team after the Winter season of year 2604. Inherited Rico Cannibalos blood-stained uniform.
Devlin Mutts
Origins: Unknown. Former ship's boy on a saratosan vessel.
Background: Another dodgy character with a murky pedigree. A quick and small framed player. Has a rep for being able to catch fast critters like rats and other vermin with his bare hands. Has even made up a decent collection of rather exotic ‘game’ recipes for these catches. Maybe this obscure diet is why both his appearance and physique resembles that of a rodent.
Had an immense debut scoring 2 touchdowns vs. the Estalian team Bilbali Blackhearts in the 1st game of Spring, year 2604.

Real name unknown
Origins: Unknown - but whispers of ties to Nippon or even Naggaroth die hard.
Background: Not much of his past is known and only Gorbag and Lietpold seems to be on speaking terms with him. Knife wielder extraordinaire and a talented blood bowler on top of that.

Added to the team after the end of spring season 2604
Birth name: Maximillian Bartholomæus III
Origin: Altdorf, The Empire
A blueblood gone rogue. This kid had it all. Wealth. Nobility. Heritage. And he messed it up. What went down precisely is a mystery but he found his way to Leitpolds prison where he quickly build up an infamous rep for being handy with a blade, a shard of glass, a sharpened spoon - you name it! Shiv was scouted by ‘Stitch’ - BFC’s apo - who shares Shivs experience with the Burkesburg penal system.

Sven Holmgang
Origins: Norsca
Background: Blood bowl freebooter who after years on the road finally settled in The Borderlands in the norse stronghold of Mortensholm when he got a steady gig with the Mortensholm Maniacs. After an impressive training match vs. the Footpad Club Gorbag approached Holmgang with an offer he couldn’t resist. Even orcs turn blue in their faces when ‘The Strangler’ demonstrates his special choking technique known as ‘The Snow Vice’.

Deros Tycho
Origins: Myrmidens
Background: A hard man from the Black Peninsula. Some personal grudges made him leave home. Full of anger he took up the noble art of Street Fighting. He quickly became a phenomenon in back alleys of tough towns like Aldium, Khypris and Burkesburg. Here Coach Gorbag snatched him up and reprogrammed him for some on-pitch melee instead.

Jürgen ‘The Nutter’ Oddmann
Origins: Rural Reikland
Background: Petty highwayman who operated around Bögenhafen and Altdorf prior to his capture. Became a raving lunatic after a lengthy incarceration in an Altdorfer prison. After some years he transfered his madness into sports to become a famed and feared wrestler and Lock-Up Bowl player (a gritty Dungeonbowl variation). Having won back some of his dignity he regained his sanity little by little and an uncontrollable urge to escape grew. At last after a successful prison break he fled Altdorf and eventually ended up in Burkesburg.

Drafted after the teams 5th game.
Knut 'Da Kid' Holmgang
Origins: Norsca
Younger sibling to 'Strangler' Holmgang. Following in the footsteps of 'The Strangler' and a spitting image of his brother. Opponents often complain about this obscure usage of saliva. 'Very provocative!' they say. Especially Bretonnian Knights are offended.

Z’Ortg’N Thraa’G
Origins: Unknown
Background: Hired cheap of a saratosan captain. Z’Ortg’N was injured at sea and lots several fingers in a freak accident involving a cannon, a pig on a stick and lots of gunpowder rendering him useless to the captain. His fearsome bulk and heavily scarred appearance makes him a scary adversary on the pitch. He’s pretty clever for an ogre being able to count to 10 - showing off by pointing out that he didn’t loose 3 fingers in his accident... he actually lost 7.
Had a terrific and very focused 1st game. Injured 2 beastmen seriously. Those 3 fingers are strong!
Confirmed kills:

Compot Cyst
Break Tackle/Grab
Original team member
Grigoz H’Ayat
Origins: Araby (rumoured)
Background: Infamous footpad who has been operating all over the Old World. Prefering short clubs and hit-and-run tactics. When the heat around him grew he disappered and popped up again in The Borderlands. Sometimes he sneaks a short club onto the field - hidden in his traditional arabyan headdress - to put the hurt on his opponents.
Dirty Player
Added to the team during the ‘Awful Autumn of ‘04’.
A young hopeful. Ready to soak up some punches on the LOS! ...1st punch took him out for a game. Life is hard.
Original team member
Siggi ‘Lips’ Zenmelmund
Origins: Marienburg, The Empire
Background: A notorious womanizer who’s wanted for adultery all over The Empire. He ruthlessly took advantage of the lonely woman who’s husbands were away at sea. Has an all-female fanclub with members from all over the region.
Block
Added to the team for the final game of the Lunar Embrace Tournament in 2604.
An rogue thrall looking to get a bit of on-pitch experience - and maybe even play alongside the famous Black Prince.
Already in his third game he played alongside his idol. Now he got the bite marks to prove it!
