The Worlds Most Famous Zombie Killer:
The world’s most famous Zombie Hunter is no doubt 'Sandbagger' (The Ghost). Although his identity is strictly guarded, his name, image and reputation have reached cult status. Rumors abound as to the identity of this self-styled 'Ghost' like assassin who has reputedly killed more than 6000 re animates. He is the only Zombie Hunter ZWN has spotlighted so far that actually has an action figure made in his image.
During the 2007 infestations in the Apulia region of Bari, Sandbagger was contracted to clean up the high-rise sections of the city that had become breading grounds for the undead. This is the area notorious for the massacre of famed USA Zombie Hunter Michael “Big Dog” Goodson and his crew of 5 hunters. 'The Ghost', as legend has written it, single handedly 're killed' 587 roaming undead from his secluded street level hideaway of rubble and debris.
Method of operation: Sandbagger always works alone. He has been known to stake out particular 'Zombie hot zones' for days without moving one inch from his seclusion. He will pick off entire contingents of undead who tend to 'herd' together through overrun areas. The bodies will often fall several deep by the time he calls in for clean up assistance.
Payment: It is believed that Sandbagger charges per kill' compensation. Amount unknown. He is known to do charity work for those who need it and for his homeland.
The legend: Apart from the rare publicity photos released. Sandbagger keeps his identity guarded. It is strongly rumored that he is in fact XXXX XXXXXX (38) an ex Captain from the US Special Forces. Despite many attempts by the global paparazzi, any photograph of Sandbagger linking him with anything has so far proved to be elusive. There has been only one grainy black and white photograph to surface. Unfortunately this photo only adds to the mythology and rumors regarding Sandbagger as there a two people in the photo and it has been unable to verify which person in the photo he is.
Amongst the more outlandish rumors are that Sandbagger is himself actually an Undead soldier. Trained by the army he resorts to old instinct and sensory memory to eliminate those within his sites. Sandbagger has laughed at these rumors, assuring those that have met or done business with him that these rumors are 100% untrue and laughable. Perhaps the most outlandish is one that has started as a result of the grainy photograph. This rumor is that Sandbagger is actually two people. The two in the photograph.
Sandbagger's furthest confirmed distance kill was 2,970 meters (3248 yards). His longed rumored is a distance of 4700 meters (5139 yards), just short of 3 miles. To put into context, in the Afghanistan War, snipers from the Canadian Army set a record with a shot of 2,430 meters (2,660 yd).
Types of missions: Contract details unknown. Worldwide Zombie Elimination.
Hardware: The WA 2000 - Probably the best Sniper Rifle ever made. The WA 2000 was originally designed as an Olympic target rifle but became popular as a Sniper Rifle. Only a total of 72 of these rifles were made and in only three different calibers, .300 Winchester Magnum, .308 (7.62 Nato), and 7.5x51mm Swiss. The 'Ghost' prefers the .300 Winchester Magnum, which the rifle was original design to use. We know this because finding and selling Sandbagger's spent rounds has become quite a cottage industry in Italy. A confirmed shell from Sandbagger can fetch the dollar equivalent of $1000 - $5000 on ebay.
We think the .300 was chosen as the primary caliber because of its long-range accuracy and its consistency at all ranges.
Confirmed undead body count: Over 6000
