Slayers gonna slay image - Call of Warhammer: Beginning of The End Times mod for Medieval II: Total War: Kingdoms

Slayers are members of a strange sub-cult of Dwarf society. They seek death in combat in order to atone for some wrongdoing. Although they seek death, Dwarfs are incapable of deliberately fighting to lose, and so always enter the fray to win. Therefore Slayers spend as much time as possible improving their warrior skills.

Slayers deliberately seek uneven combat, for example by entering a Goblin stronghold alone. Trolls are considered the ideal opponents, as the Dwarf's death is almost assured. Their way of life weeds out all but the toughest and most determined warriors, so that those Slayers who survive for any period time are invariably exceptionally tough, violent, and extremely dangerous.

As a mark of their Oath, all Slayers dye their hair bright orange, and stiffen it with pig grease so that it sticks out at alarming angles. Tattoos also cover their bodies.
