Time in Ravenloft
Balthazaar was one of many assassins hired by Lord Loren Soth to kill Strahd Von Zarovich. Still angered by Strahd's duplicity and harboring his treacherous seneschal, Caradoc, he wanted to hurt the vampire Lord. Not only were the warriors tasked with killing Strahd, but also were told to search for a young girl who was said to be Strahd's reincarnated lover.
History
Out of all the warriors of chaos, none is more infamous for his cruelty than Balthazaar the Headsman. While still a youth, he was apprenticed to the Headsman’s Guild. There he showed terrific strength and technique, but his teachers grew worried about his uncommon zeal for his tasks. Despite their concerns, Balthazaar was allowed to take oath as a member of the guild. The young headsman quickly displayed his trademark cruelty when he severed all of the limbs of a condemned man before finally putting the poor man out of his misery.
Balthazaar was soon cast out of the guild for breaking their code of honor, whose tenets called for a swift, clean, merciful death. Balthazaar was infuriated by his dismissal, and soon he had the heads of the guild for his very own. Balthazaar now roams the mists, plying his trade where possible, inflicting punishment on both the just and the wicked with equal pleasure. Balthazaar is the tallest of the assassins, standing a full head taller than most others. His size and bulk compares favorably to the Hulk. He wears a black leather headsman's hood. Although he wears no armor, he is still not terribly fast or agile. He does, however, do tremendous damage with his Axe of Dancing. [1][2]
