They say that life is short. Is it therefore true that unlife is too long…? Either way, you are a long time dead. Both the living and the dead of Mousillion find little joy in their existence. Scraping out a living in the swamps and bogs is a miserable, short existance . Bloodbowl is a rare source of inspiration and relief to the population of this most damned of cities. Hugo Hellichec, the Head Coach of the Mousillon Patriots, is now a cult hero to the masses-the success and glory of the team a rare light in a dark existence.
The team was originally founded by Remi Le Beau. An entrepreneur, of sorts, he founded the Patriots to unite the peoples of Mousillon, Bretonnia’s lost child, filling his pockets in the process. At least that was the idea. The Patriots were mauled in the first game Carcassone Province Paladins, losing many of their players to the better equipped, better prepared haughty and arrogant Southerners.
Enter Hellichec, another entrepreneur, of sorts. He saw plenty of potential in the team, at least now that they were dead… Summoning the better players back to unlife, Hellichec adopted the teams name, and adopted a new strip: Orange on Black, eerily similar to the famed Black Grail Knights of Mousillon. Bolstered by stronger reanimations, including some of the aforementioned Black Grail knights, the team has moved up through the divisions, and is ready to test itself on the grandest stage of them all, especially with the retirement of so many of the divisions dominant players.
Defying the odds and enjoying the most spectacular of debut seasons, The Patriots are back. A far cry from last pre-season, they are no-longer the whipping boys of Southern Bretonnia, having enjoyed a successful pre-season tour. “Hellichec” is now a by-word for success on the streets of Mousillon, and the names of the high-scoring “Varg”, Inspirational (well, for a Zombie) “Grey Worm” and the teams resident enforcers, “Tombstone” and “Lupin” are now household names throughout the Duchy.
Not everything has been plain sailing for The Patriots, however. They were still without a sponsor until late in the offseason: Negotiations with Loriel Hair Supplies fell through (apparently, Elves are ‘Just Worth it’…); Gator-Aid opted to back an up-and-coming Lizardman team (“Krox and Gators make for a more marketable image…”) and even the City’s famed Cheese Merchants found a better team to back (“There’s just more demand in Skavenblight”). However, as luck would have it, rumours began to circulate that the famed Grail had been found within the city… Quick to recognise the merchandising opportunity, a young apothecary by the name of Jean Pemberton approached the teams owners with a plan. The teams new sponsor, a highly addictive concoction rebranded as an “energising sports drink”. Now available in mini-barrels everywhere, The Patriots are proud to present their new partnership with ‘Necro-Cola – Unlife tastes good!’
Expectations in the city are sky high. A tilt at Super Bowl XII is expected, but Hellichec is no fool…He knows his side are better, more experienced and actually using a playbook (There are rumours that the team MIGHT even consider sing a quarterback this year!)- But he also knows they got lucky… With new franchises and more-experienced coaches on all sounds, Hellichec knows the black-on-orange grail is now a target for every team in the League. The Champs are back, but how well they will do is anyone’s guess
