After a long night in his wild Hammerite days (self flagelation and scaldings until gone midnight! Oh heady days), he staggered out of bed at about 4 am for it was his turn to stoke the boiler ("The boiler" was a particularly fat novice known for dereliction of duty in the area of calisthenics, and "stoking" is best not discussed in polite company). However His Emminence the High Priest Markander was oft known to wander the halls of the college at this hour (or any for that matter, it was thought the man never slept) so poor Karrass endeavoured to make himself presentable. But in his dazed state he accidentally combed his flowing locks with bronzer instead of brylcreme!.
The other bretheren treated him somewhat distantly after this. And so the trajectory of history in The City was altered forever.
