Stout Ironfist

History
Stout Ironfist is best known as the first Troll Slayer to play Blood Bowl professionally for the Dwarf Giants from 2465 until his death in 2471.

Professional Career
Previous to becoming a Troll Slayer, Stout Ironfist was a star blitzer for the Dwarf Giants. Given the charge of protecting the King's son during a match against the Lowdown Rats, the son was killed by the Lowdown Rats' Troll, after Ironfist had been distracted and blinded by a custard pie. With frenzy upon him, Ironfist grabbed the horned helmet of the slain son and decapitated the troll. Due to his failure and shame, Ironfist shaved his head into a mohawk as a sign of humility, and dyed his hair orange as a mark of respect to the famous red beard of the King's son.

For the rest of his career, Stout Ironfist challenged the largest and/or toughest opponents the Dwarf Giants faced so that death could release him from his shame. In 2471, in a game versus the Chaos All-Stars, Ironfist was triple-team blocked by the All-Stars' Ogre, Morg 'N Thorg, the Troll, Bork, and the Minotaur, Zy-Nox. This led to Ironfist's death and release from his humiliation.

Because of his legend, all Dwarfs who incur massive shame during Blood Bowl matches follow Stout Ironfist's path in their efforts toward redemption through on-pitch violence.
