History Characters / BloodBowl

The Dwarfs were one of the first races to play Blood Bowl and in many make the perfect Blood Bowl players: tough as rock, fearless and with a healthy love of inflicting violence on their opponents. Unfortunately they are also among the slowest teams in the game with even their fastest members falling [[JustForPun short]] of the average human player. The Dwarfs themselves don't see this as much of a problem given they can win a war of attrition against almost anyone else.

* FriendtoAllChildren: Despite his brutal demeanour and obscene capacity for violence on the field, Morg has a reputation as being very gentle around children and has a large following of fans of all ages.

* JumpedattheCall: Villanous example. Grashnak was supposedly contacted by a bloody faced manifestation of the god Nuffle while he stood guard over the great Herdstone, urging him to leave the forest and play Blood Bowl in the most violent way possible.

* Arch-Enemy: Ripper Bolgrot engaged with another famous player, Ugroth "Ripper" Bolgrot, a chainsaw wielding Orc celebrity. After there was confusion where both players were booked in under the same name (Ripper Bolgrot), Ripper the troll brought Ripper the Orc to court and forced him to remove the Ripper part of his name.

* Healing Factor: Like all trolls, Ripper can regenerate. Represented in the game where he can recover from an injury on a 4+ and in the background where he is murdered but heals himself thanks to trolls inherent regeneration.
* Only a Flesh Wound: Was brutally decapitated by Ugroth Bolgrot after winning a court case but regenerated his head and carried on as normal.
* Good Thing You Can Heal

* BruiserwithaSoftCenter: Lord Borak, infamous Chaos Lord, bodycount in the hundreds. He also attends charity events and is rumoured to be married to ex-star player Zara the Slayer.

* VillainwithGoodPublicity: While not exactly a villain, Borak is a Chaos Lord who adores nothing more than violence and carnage. However he also has become quite popular among Chaos fans and the general public alike for his surprisingly sound or cheeky advice which he writes for in SPIKE! Magazine.

* LoveableCoward: The Peasant Linemen are human players with the armor value of elves and the agility of dwarves - that is to say, very bad. They start with only one skill - Fend - which makes it so that they can more easily run away when someone tries to hit them. They're still one of the favorite pieces on a Bretonnian roster, because their disposable nature make them great marking and fouling players.

However he also has become quite popular among Chaos fans and the general public alike for his surprisingly sound or cheeky advice which he writes for in SPIKE! Magazine.
* Witty Banter: What much of his advice column "Ask Lord Borak" consists of mixed with advice.

* The Ace: There is nothing Griff is not capable of doing. As fast as an elf, as strong as an Orc and capable of feats both in the background and game which other players can only dream of.

* One-Man Army: More like One-Man team but Griff can single handedly win a match by himself.

* It's All About Me: Is sometimes depicted as having a massive ego with an arrogant streak, even comparing himself to Sigmar in older media.

* Our Minotaurs Are Different: A giant Minotaur which stands more than 9 foot tall with immense strength but also fully capable of speech.
* The Dreaded: Several teams have outright refused to enter the field knowing Grashnak was present while others have attempted to hide in their dug-outs (which failed to save them!)
* Horn Attack: Has an ability called Horns which makes a Blitz action by him add additional power and has an ability specifically called "Gored by the Bull"
* Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Grashnak done this to an entire Goblin team after accidentally slipping on some of their slop on the pitch. Has also done this to an Ogre who attempted to compete with him in fatalities through a season, disemboweling him when they finally faced off on the field.
* Body-Count Competition: He is attempting to gain more fatalities than Morg N Thorg, the only other player in the entirity of the sport with a higher body count.

* BloodKnight: Canonically Chaos teams love fighting. Their players tend to be short on skills but strong and capable of hitting hard. Even a humble starting Beastman, which otherwise is mechanically identical to a generic Human Lineman begins with horns giving it a Strength boost while blitzing.
