Skarburn Zapdakka
Skarburn Zapdakka is a notorious and trigger-happy ork of the Flash Gitz who offers his services on Precipice to explorers venturing into the nearby Blackstone Fortress.[1]
Overview
The life of a freebooter suited Zapdakka, and for several years he fought under the renowned mercenary Kaptain Deffdreg. After each battle, Zapdakka spent whatever loot he had on upgrades for his prized snazzgun. However his desire to test his precious weapon got him into trouble on the world of Ghorovow, where he inadvertently killed a renegade human commander who had sought to employ the greenskin mercenaries in the first place. He was subsequently ejected from Deffdreg's warband, but took it as a sign from Gork or Mork that it was time to go off on his own. While promoting himself as a gun for hire on Farvast, Zapdakka heard tales of a new Blackstone Fortress with undoubtedly great loot laying within. The ambutious Ork soon believed it was his destiny to loot this fortress, and he was able to hitch a ride with the Rogue Trader vessel Aurea. Using bribery and intimidation, Zapdakka was able to enhance his reputation among the fearful ships crew. Upon arriving at Precipice, the Flash Git took the first opportunuity to join a group of mercenaries heading for the Blackstone Fortress. Within hours, each of the others had been cut down, either by the fortress's denizens or by errant snazzgun fire. Zapdakka himself roamed the corridors seeking priceless items that would seal his reputation.[2]
