King Casimir only lived to be 60. Did he ever go bald? The wikipedia article doesn't say. If so though that would be in line with the 4th theme in Guilds: bald people. And one of those bald people is Butcher.

Butcher also fits the 5th theme of Guilds, which is, wordy cards. Take two coin tokens, you may trash a card, something something, gain a card, something something, man I'll just buy one, I'll figure out what it does when I play it.
