Believe it or not, Andrew "Griffon" Baker was once apart of the Royal Altdorf university Griffins before joining our campus. He was a huge part of the team as the water boy, delivering water to the famous side. Regardless of his lack of actually playing for the godly side, being apart of the big team is a huge deal to some of the halflings at Eicheschatten university, where most of the pupils are Griffons supporters (after Mootland Fighting Cockerels obviously). When asked to trial for the team, he first rejected the offer as he thought that his work was being a water boy. However, after the realization that he may face the Griffons in a game he immediately signed up for the team. He wasn't outstanding in the trials but his effort was good enough to get him into the MFC.

Being from Altdorf, it was hard being a halfling there; constantly getting bullied for being weak and short by the snobs at the university. Although being apart of the griffons at one point, he never got the chance to meet the emperor. But maybe if the Cockerels win he could! Andrew studied cooking at Altdorf and it wasn't anything special, mainly consisting of potatoes and finely grilled horsesteaks. Andrew tried to spice things up with traditional Mootland cooking skills but the culinary teacher there found our food revolting and that cabbage-wrapped potatoes are way better. Personally I completely disagree, dishes from Mootland are far greater than the food in Altdorf.

Work was hard to find in Altdorf for Andrew when he studied there. He mainly worked at his uncles bakery, but business wasn't very successful there only selling a half dozen hash browns every day. On a side note, seriously! Why do they indulge in potatoes in Altdorf? It disgusts me.

Regardless of being a potato loving country, it is an honor to have a halfling from the city play on our side. I am looking forward to one day playing the Griffons and seeing the look on their faces to see their 78th (out of the 89 they have) water boy on our side. But that is if he does not graduate or retire from Blood bowl before then.
