PIECES OF D8

 Some captains run a tough ship, and the Pirate Deck Boss is no exception! When asked by his crew, ''What's the most important rule on this ship?'' The great ape simply glared and snarled, ''See this deck? If you're not swabbing it, you're standing on it. If you're standing on it, you should be swabbing it.'' It turns out even damned dirty apes like a tidy ship. 

 This Mantis Shrimp is the pound-for-pound champion of the ocean floor. Don't let its small stature fool you, Shako Thumb Splitter is one of the hardest hitters in all of RUMBLESLAM and is known for being the waterweight champion of the world! 

 Dubby's most prized possession is his rubber duck, it's always on him. It was given to him by the hall of famer The Great Barrier Keef, his childhood hero who inspired him to get into the ring. 

 Reefback is a recognised conservation area. He has over 50 types of rare fighting coral encrusted onto his back.
Conservationists and RUMBLESLAM enthusiasts recognise that enrichment should be part of the conservation effort, and Reefback is encouraged to take to the ring whenever the tide is right. 

 Ikatere always contests Makara’s claim that he was one of the first sea creatures. Mainly because Ikatere claims that he’s the father of all sea creatures. RUMBLESLAM historians aren’t quite sure if this was meant literally or metaphorically, but have decided not to open that can of worms. 

 Bait and Switch have only recently started as a tag team! They used to be mortal enemies while working with other partners, but have since found common ground. 

 Once an actual figurehead, The Lady Luck was given life by a drunk mage on day two of aninety-day pub crawl.
Unsatisfied with her lot in life, she dreamed of joining the wrestlers that fought on her deck as a casino ship.  

 Diodon might be small (usually), but he’s actually a ravenous eater. He holds the top spot in all the local eateries challenge walls, but is currently barred from the Bilge Pump. He won’t elaborate on why, but the seafood decor going missing is a bit suspicious. 

 Captain Louis once managed to get into trouble with the entirety of the Rostani dwellers in the Diamond Oasis. They managed to smooth things over eventually, but I don’t think he’s getting that boat or that bear back any time soon. 

 Makara has had a long and successful career in RUMBLESLAM. As a Leviathan, Makara has existed since the seas were fresh. It’s said the tears of his opponents are the reason for all the salt in the sea. 

 Cap’n Thatch used to be the Captain of a large casino fleet. That was until one fateful day where his second in command staged a mutiny and shaved off his beard! After dealing with the shame (and growing his beard back) Thatch entered the ring, vowing to sink every single mutineering ship. 

 Officer Radians was honourably discharged from the navy after suffering an injury in the line of duty. Despite a series of back injuries, he walked the road to recovery and then some. Wanting to inspire others that are going the same he signed up to fight in the RUMBLESLAM ring.
