“Third league match, DOTP

Men of Stakes' coach enters the team's encampement with a trio of grizzled men, and a squabbling mass of townsfolk. One of men them wears a facemask, the other is a bright mage, according to his fiery robes, and the third is a huge and grinning man, flicking smiles and winking at the townsfolk behind him, clearly being the object of their adoration.

"These three are going to help us win the game tomorrow. Do as they say."

After this short statement the team's coach retreats to his private quarters, leaving the team to get stand bazzled as they quickly surround these imposing individuals.

The grinning man opens his mouth first. He speaks in short and staccato sentences, and it's clear he won't bear any contradictions.

"Here's the plan. I'm going to be the star tomorrow, and you chumps are here to catch punches and keep the biggest orcs out of my way. Hold your line, I'll do the rest."

The Men clamor in disbelief. Who is this man to bark orders at them? Team captain Luther looks dazed and for once does not know what to say.

Matchday. The masked man shows up at the encampment carrying a huge rattling chainsaw, much to the delight of the team. Griff looks even more imposing wearing his suit of armor. After telling the wizard to 'wait for my signal' the game is off.
The Orcs are very prepared. They drive back the Men who try to form a defence on their own half whilst Griff and team's catcher Theo run towards the orc holding the ball. Griff puts his fist in the air and out of nowhere a massive fireblast slams the ground, throwing 3 orcs and the ball to the ground. Griff rams the last one out of the way and Theo is free to grab the ball and run for the endzone, scoring a quick touchdown, 1-0 for the Men. After the score the masked lunatic isn't seen anymore after he had a stern talking to from the referee.

With plenty of time still on the clock, the Men, invigorated by this early succes, manage to hold their own versus the massive orcs.

Second half, the Men receive. Jürgen is unable to pickup the ball, and the orcs quickly capitalize and score, only to BLITZ the Men on their next setup. A daring move by both Griff and catcher Theo pressures the ball, and after taking a few more cracking punches and daring dodges the Men walk away with a 1-1 draw.

There won't be complaints next time one of the big stars is attracted to play for the team.
