Ol' Man Death

Ol' Man Death first enters the story where we find Maxim in need of a new hat, to Castle Heterodyne. Apparently, a Jager cannot simply buy a hat, but one must be taken as a trophy,. Unfortunately, Maxim has not run across a worthy enemy since he gave his hat to the late Lars in respect for bravery, and the only worthy enemy with a hat nearby happens to be Ol' Man Death, whom Maxim decides to challenge.

As of yet, we know very little about Ol' Man Death, but there are a few things worth noting:


 * He is apparently well known among and somehow linked to the Jagers
 * He is respected and perhaps even revered by the Jagers, according to the tone which Maxim uses to speak of him, and the way Oggie responds to Maxim's decision to challenge him.
 * He has a of the Jagermonster Insignia on his right arm.
 * He is a formidable warrior. Not only is he referred to as the "Greatest Warrior Ever" by Maxim, but he also seems to deal with Maxim's aggressiveness with ease, an impressive feat considering how well skilled the Jagers are as fighters.
 * He was/is in the service of the Heterodynes. He appears to be wearing the Heterodyne Sigil on his apron strap, and lives in Mechanicsburg, so it's not difficult to assume that he serves the Heterodynes.  However, one tends to think that he may be someone of considerable rank considering what the Jagers seem to think of him.
 * He's a skilled sandwich maker. His status as the "cook" at a sandwich shop/catering service in Mechanicsburg and the impressive array of knives he keeps strapped to his waist testify to his skill in the art of sandwich making.  One can only assume that his history of carving up enemies gave him skill in carving up delectable sandwich meats and breads.
