[edit] Radiskull and Devil Doll
Radiskull is an enormous floating skull with a purple mohawk that often shifts its position on his cranium, depending on the angle in which Radiskull faces the camera. Radiskull is a die-hard rock n' roll fan. He is famous for his impromptu heavy metal performances, which are usually preceded by his declaration, "Now it's time to kick it!". Although he is an enthusiastic rocker, Radiskull often becomes tired, and spends most of his non-rocking time asleep.
Devil Doll is Radiskull's adorable little demon friend. Despite his squeaky voice, he is a skilled rapper, also possessing a number of useful demonic powers. He is also said to be "a hit with the ladies". He has boundless energy, especially when it comes to rocking, and he is often disheartened by Radiskull's narcolepsy. Often, he provides his friend with coffee, which seems to (temporarily) do the trick.
Devil Doll is romantically involved with an angel named Candy. Seemingly star-crossed, their affair is constantly threatened.
Both Radiskull and Devil Doll reside in Hell.
