Skulltaker, whose true daemon-name is U'zuhl, is the mightiest of Khorne's Heralds and the chosen headsman of the Blood God, a duellist without equal among the daemon hosts of the Blades of Khorne. Clad in a cloak stitched from the flayed hides of slain champions and bearing a black-iron blade that has drunk the lives of thousands, he strides the battlefield seeking not slaughter for its own sake but worthy foes — heroes, warlords and champions whose skulls will honour Khorne's throne. Skulltaker has sworn a terrible oath to claim the skull of a mighty warrior from every race in creation, and across untold battles he has hunted down the finest fighters of a hundred peoples and taken their heads one by one. To be challenged by him is to face near-certain death, for his skill with the blade is honed by aeons of single combat and blessed by his god. The greatest warriors of the Mortal Realms both dread and secretly crave his notice, for to die beneath Skulltaker's blade is to be remembered as a foe worthy of Khorne himself.
