Everything about Lackey Gunterman has always been large. From his legendary appitite for food and drink, to his voice and even his snoring. Seven feet tall and as wide as a outhouse, Lackey is a imposing figure indeed. Lasckey origins are a mystery but some do remember a few years backwhen the giant arrived from norsca off the boat.He was immediataly offerd work by the dockmaster Marius Goffery, who would soon regret it. Lackey would show up to work late, drunk and several dockhand who owed him gambling debts dissapeared over the few months of his employ on the piers. Marius was so happy to see him go that he did not even investigate the missing cargo under Lackey's care.
Lackey's large size also got him noticed by the Imperial Gunnery School of Nuln, the empire premier crafter of cannons. Kasper Wilhelm of Wilhelm Arms Co. Owner of one of the best and oldest cannon foundries, Noticed Lackey in the crowd while test firing a batch of newly cast cannons. Lackey was fasinated with cannons that he stood still and watched for hours. When one of the great guns would go off, the crowd would jump, cower and cover their ears. Lackey would not even flinch. Kasper gave Lackey a job in the forge and was impressed with his strength, Lackey could heft a cannon by himself, that normally took 4-5 strong me to carry. Sure Lackey was loud and brutish but not the brightest fuse in the tinderbox, but he showed promise. Lackey's employment ended one day when several powder loaders , who had gone drinking with Lackey the previous night with Lackey failed to show up for work. There was a new lot of cannons needing test firing , so he pulled Lackey out of the forge to help. Usally a sticker for safety, Kasper Wilhelm was desperate to see his order of six new cannons proof-fired and shipped. So he quickly gave Lackey instruction on measuring and loading the large guns, Which were then wheeld out and fired into the harbor away from passing ships of course. The frist three guns fired perfectly. Kasper was relived, the fourth was noticably louderand the report was enopugh to knock the cannoneer off of his feet. The fith gunwas louder still, the entire city ground to a haltupon hearing the fith gun discharge. Kasper ran out to the groundsjust in time to see the sixth gun explodein a huge fire ball. Those in the crowd brave enough to stick about after the fifth cannon were moved down by bronze shrapnel and debris. A large smoldering crater is all the remained of the 6 cannons. In shock Kasper ran to the loading roomand threw open the door. one dozen kegs of powder were strewn haphazardly about, Powder and fuses littered the ground. The last thing Kasper saw was the candle stub- really who's dumb enough to light a candle in the powder room? - Buring down to a small pile of spilled powder. Lackey Gunterman was running back from the pub after hearing the fifth cannon go off, and the sixth explode. He was cursing himself for not being there to see his handiwork , He was very proud of his work! As Lackey rounded the cornerto Wilhelm Arms Co., He was rocked off of his feet. As Lackey watched in childlike wonder, the very foundations of the armoryseemed to take flight. It was as if a angry god had scooped up the building and dropped it from the sky. lackey was amazed at the sheer beauty of the spectacle as sparks of all color rained downall around him, plumes of flame erupted hundreds of feet into the air and broken stonesmashed into houses up to 2 miles away. Figures on the exact death toll were belived to be approx 50-70, depending on who you ask. That day became know to the people on Nuln as the "Day of Glass" because every window, wine goblet, and reading glass was shattered in a 5 mile radius.
Shortly as a fail career as a cannoneer Lackey was involved in a bar brawl. Lackey more often than not, ended the night of drinking by cracking a few skulls. This particular evening one of his victims was a snotball star named Barik Jax. Jax was the team captain of The Punishers. A troupe of players that wandered up and down the empire, playing local teams for coin. Golan Revik, the manager of the Punishers would often make a killing on side bets. Revik used his coin- and sometimes the muscle of his players- to recruit the largest, meanest men from accross the empire. Golan Revik, had spared more than one man from the gallows only to have them killed on the snotball field. Team members were rewarded for when they won and punished when they lost. The Punishers had a winning team this year, thanks to the impressive Barik Jax, So Revik was furious to learn that Jax had suffered several broken bones at the hands of a local brute. Revik sent a few of his bench warmers to find this thug and terach him a lesson. When they did not return, He sought him out himself- with a few body guards of course. Upon seeing Lackey, Revik offered him a job on the spot. Lackey soon became team captain and eventually became so hated by opposing teams Revik encouraged Lackey to change his name for fear of retribution. Lackey was reluctant but agreed, as long as he could choose his own name. Lackey thought long and hard and decided to take the names of the things he loved the most. The Punishers blazed a trail of broken bones, ripped flesh, and torn ligament all the way to the Imperial Snotball Campionships, Thanks to the leadership and brutality of their Captain," GROG MUTTONWENCH". was the M.V.P. The second year of Grog Muttonwenches career was even better, up until the championship title game. Having grown bored and restless Lackey decided not to show up to the game that day. He instead slipped out of town. The Punishers took the worst beating of their career that day and Golan Revikwas unable to cover his bets, and was never heard from again.
Lackey Gunterman eventually heaed twords Wolfenburg to vistit old friends and look for work.
