Skulltaker

[TOASTY!!! ]

Of all of Khorne's Bloodletters in both 40K and Fantasy, none is as angry as U'Zuhl, known more widely as Skulltaker.

The moment Khorne created him was also the day he scored his first kill by slaying the creature he first met via chopping off its head. That creature was another Bloodletter.

After scoring his 888th skull for the Skull Throne, Khorne promote U'Zuhl to the rank of Sacred Executioner and thus earned his moniker of Skulltaker.

Skulltaker is extremely competent and dead serious even among Bloodletters when it comes to fighting (and that's saying something about him, as Bloodletters treat war and slaughter as serious business). When the fighting is extreme, and the slaughter is immense, he will walk the battlefield looking for exceptionally powerful warriors and challenge them to manly combat one on one. Unfortunately for his enemies, Skulltaker is a master duellist beyond and above the capabilities any other Bloodletter could possibly achieve. The daemon simply cuts off his adversary's limbs (but never slays them), grabs their heads and utters the eight Words of Sacrifice that weathers his victim's heads in magical flames that burn away their flesh and leaving only a bare skull he throws into a sack he carries along with the other skulls he collected while fighting. He'll often lift say skulls up in the air for everyone to see them before putting them on his cape.

After a battle he returns to Khorne's Brass Citadel to give the skulls he collected as offering to the Blood God. Most of them Khorne collects, but the skulls of the most exceptional of opponents he makes Skulltaker keep as personal trophies that he sews into his cloak.

The Bloodletter's achievements are as follows:

• Slaying a quarter of Grey Knight Brother Captains during the First War for Armageddon (thus sealing his status as total badass).
• Slaying the Ork Warboss Grimsnag Urk and his Mega Armoured Nobz on Agripina-6.
• Slaying 17 Eldar Exarchs on Haranshemash (seems they gravely underestimated him).
