Starblaydia's Rugby Union Team

Front Row
Dwalin Khuzdul (Loosehead Prop), Dagnir Tumunzahar (Hooker), Grisk Chugo (Tighthead Prop)
Surprisingly this is an entirely Dwarven front row and you can be sure they'll be hard and low in the tackles, as long as nobody has the sense to jump over them. Their stocky frames provide a perfect battering ram in the scrum, and once they've got the ball it's hard to get it off them. Tumunzahar is somewhat of a streak thrower, however, his lineouts come in patches of either very good or very bad throws.

Second Row
Rano Calamari (Lock), Antonius Lucretior (Lock)
These are some very, very big men, both former soldiers. Near-silent Lucretior gets on with the job in a slow, plodding manner, while Calamari is a whirlwind of power and strength.

Back Row
Melchior (Openside Flanker), Vincenzo Verdi (Blindside Flanker), Septimus Furion (No. 8)
Usually a Number Eight, Melchior is moved to Openside for his sheer presence on the pitch. Faster than he looks, expect him to get among the tries. Verdi, on the other hand, is much smaller and uses his comparative agility to make the breaks. Furion's sheer muscle mass and ferocity is sure to keep the forwards moving.

Halves
Binky O'Brady (Scrum Half), Magnus Khanasan (Fly-Half)
Strangely enough, O'Brady is half-Halfling, making him rather small and incredibly agile. Quite where 'flings live in Starblaydia is another matter entirely, but we have one represented in our dinky Scrum-Half. Khanasan, on the other hand, is a big, powerful, bearded man, equally at home as a playmaker and a place-kicker. His defensive abilities aren't too hot, though.

Backs
Rafael Jongbloed (Left Wing), Maximillian Raffiki (Inside Centre), Jools Sturmdrang (Outside Centre), Jaritharak Sinnikar (Right Wing), Cam de la Huerta (Full-Back)
Mostly this set of backs are gifted with innate speed and good hands. The only real power is provided by Sturmdrang, though de la Huerta and Jongbloed are not too shabby in the tackle.
