Usually, when Lizardmen spawn – always according to the ancient and inscrutable timetable of the Old Ones – they emerge fully-formed, crawling from the spawning pools in their hundreds. Yet when Drull and Dribl arrived in the world, it was as a pair of otherwise unaccompanied twins, in an event considered most auspicious indeed by the Slann auguries.
Auspicious is certainly the word for this tricksy twosome… Unless they’re playing for your opponent, because these are two of the dirtiest players ever to participate in the ignoble sport of Blood Bowl.
Drull smuggles a ceremonial obsidian dagger onto the pitch in order to Stab the opposition, while his brother Dribl is a Dirty Player (+1) whose skill as a Sneaky Git helps him get away with kicking you when you’re down.
Played together – as they inevitably are – the trouble is doubled. as they each get +1 on their Stab and Foul rolls against players marked by the other Skink. What else can you expect from such A Sneaky Pair?
Both brothers can also Sidestep, and combined with their native Skink speed and agility – and the usual Dodge and Stunty skills – they’ll be picking players off left, right, and centre.
In all, Drull and Dribl cost 190,000GP to hire and can play for teams from the Lustrian Superleague – that’s Amazons as well as Lizardmen. They’ll be released in resin in the not-too-distant future by Forge World.
