List of Metalocalypse characters

The following is a list of characters in the American animated television series Metalocalypse. Survival from near fatal injuries in the show is a common running gag; a character may be burned, maimed or hurt in some manner and still be able to return in later episodes.

Contents

Dethklok

Dethklok is depicted as an extremely popular and successful death metal band, described by their adversaries, the Tribunal, as the "world's greatest cultural force." The band has five members: frontman and lead vocalist Nathan Explosion, lead guitarist Skwisgaar Skwigelf, rhythm guitarist Toki Wartooth, drummer "Pickles the drummer", and bassist William Murderface.

The band's fan base includes billions of metal fanatics, who frequently endanger themselves to watch the band perform live.[1][2] With their widespread commercial success and lucrative sponsorship contracts, Dethklok is ranked as the world's seventh largest economy (by the end of the second season).[3]

The members of Dethklok are often portrayed as incompetent at almost everything not directly related to their profession. The band struggles to perform everyday tasks, including shopping for groceries, preparing food, and maintaining proper social relationships.

The Tribunal

The Tribunal is an Illuminati-style group which monitors Dethklok. They appear in almost every episode to discuss Dethklok's latest activities and the dangers they pose. They seem to fear that Dethklok are part of an ancient Sumerian prophecy. In an early version of the Metalocolypse theme song posted on Brandon Small's personal website, the voice snippets suggest that a "death clock" would be discovered and used by the members of the band. The episode "The Metalocalypse Has Begun" suggests that the ultimate event in the prophecy is an "apocalypse of metal."

The group's briefings are led by Senator Stampingston, who usually has experts (who often bear ridiculously complicated names) speak based on whatever Dethklok is doing in the episode. The group has both military (General Crozier) and religious (Cardinal Ravenwood, replaced by Vater Orlaag in season 2) leaders in its ranks, among others. At its head is Mr. Selatcia, a gray-haired man who sits in a throne in the center. There are four other members, but none of them have been named and only one of them has spoken so far (requesting to go to the United States Pornography Awards, along with Stampingston, Crozier, and Ravenwood). Behind the sitting members of the Tribunal are monitors showing the faces of eight more men appearing via video conferencing.

Senator Stampingston

Senator Stampingston is the main speaker who reports on Dethklok's current activities. It's never made clear if he currently represents a state or if he simply was a past senator. He stands to the side of the large television screen in the briefing room, explaining Dethklok's latest activities while the screen highlights his points. When his back is seen, there is a long scar on the back of his head. He has a diplomatic standpoint for the issues against Dethklok, often recommending espionage and other forms of information gathering. He keeps a professional and calm attitude towards Dethklok; he knows they are a threat, but he never overreacts and he is rarely the one who comes up with ideas.

General Crozier

General Crozier is a four-star General in the United States Army; as of the end of Season 2, he has become Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. His job in the Tribunal, as stated by Mr. Selatcia, is information gathering, which Crozier is not happy about. He brings a military viewpoint to the Tribunal's dealings with Dethklok, and usually recommends military action, often in the form of assassination. Despite his view that Dethklok should be dealt with in the most efficient manner, he usually has the most realistic predictions, sometimes questioning if certain things the band does are really dangerous. However, his season 1 finale attempt to kill Dethklok is halted when Selatcia uses his mysterious mental powers to take over Crozier's mind.[4] Under Selatcia's control, Crozier gathers his forces to set up the Falconback Project.

Cardinal Ravenwood

Cardinal Ravenwood was an elderly priest who had a religious perspective on the issues regarding Dethklok. He was the secondary villain of the first Season. He claimed to have prophetic visions on a regular basis, most of which related to Dethklok; however, they did not appear to be very reliable, or at the very least not as literal as he explained them. Though his visions did not usually end up accurate, he accurately foretold his own death.[4] In the season 1 finale, Selatcia discovers Ravenwood and Crozier's attack on Dethklok, and uses his telekinetic powers to kill Ravenwood by making him vomit his intestines.

Vater Orlaag

Vater Orlaag is introduced in the second episode of the second season, presumably having been taken on to replace Ravenwood. Orlaag is described by Stampingston as "a political and spiritual specialist." Orlaag appears to play a strong role in the Tribunal, often giving his input during meetings and being present in Selatcia's chamber during a conference with Crozier. He seems to either hold a high military rank or maintain a private army.[5] He has also shown himself to be fiercely loyal to Selatcia, more so than any other Tribunal member, and is later revealed to have been working under him.

Mr. Selatcia

Mr. Selatcia is the oldest and most powerful member of the Tribunal, sitting in a throne in the center. When the Tribunal debates the best course of action, Mr. Selatcia is usually the last to speak, and always has the final word on what course of action the group will take. Oddly enough, he usually recommends inaction, ordering the Tribunal to allow what is occurring to take place undisturbed. General Crozier describes Selatcia's background as "murky." It is heavily implied throughout the series that Selatcia is connected to Dethklok and the Metalocalypse, although it remains uncertain as to exactly how. Selatcia also seems to have telekinetic and mind control powers, aspects of his true demonic nature known to only a few like Orlaag.

Selatcia frequently makes it a point to not kill Dethklok, something that angers both General Crozier and Cardinal Ravenwood in the first season. In the season 1 finale, when the pair violate his order, Selatcia kills Ravenwood while sparing Crozier, wiping the general's memory of the ordeal.[4] By Season 3, Selatcia becomes concerned by Offdensen, suspecting him to be aware of his true nature. This is confirmed in the season finale when Selatcia addresses the issue with the tribunal and he pronounces Offdensen a "dead man".

Dethklok employees

Charles Foster Offdensen

Charles Foster Offdensen[6][7] (inconsistently spelled with one or two 'f's) is Dethklok's manager, legal counsel, and Chief Financial Officer, the latter also incidentally being his initials. He acts as manager, lawyer, and advisor to Dethklok, protecting the band against everything from slowing record sales to themselves. Offdensen is one of the few individuals seen to interact with Dethklok for a significant length of time and evade subsequent mutilation or death (until the end of season 2). Offdensen is an excellent fencer; his office displays a plaque he earned in college for his achievements. He also seems at various points in the series to be highly proficient in other martial arts, in one episode defeating an assassin who had come to kill Dethklok. Offdensen uses high-tech radar and surveillance to monitor the band's safety, and activates cutting edge defenses when Dethklok is attacked.

Offdensen is focused on business; his primary concern is getting the band to record and perform, but he must also protect the band from fans, enemies, and the legal and financial ramifications of their own actions. To this end, he has shown himself capable of brutality. However, his violent acts are always quite calculated, with the clear objective to protect the band, as opposed to the accidental carnage the band members themselves seem to attract by simply existing.

Over the course of the series, Offdensen is portrayed as a sort of caretaker to Dethklok, having a clear knowledge of the various band members' personalities and quirks. He receives a great deal of verbal abuse from the band, which he bears with visible—but controlled—annoyance while continuing to indulge them. At times he attempts to reason with the band about their disregard of law and logic. At other times, he enables their behavior. When he sees a situation that is immaterial to Dethklok's making music or other money-making enterprises (e.g. Dethmerch, the merchandise line of Dethklok), he half-heartedly offers a listening ear for advice.

In season 2, Offdensen became the target of the Metal-Masked Assassin after stopping him from killing Dethklok, fighting him until the event of the Revengencers attacking Mordhaus itself during the CD release party for the band's new album. During the ensuing battle, after Offdensen is shot down by the Death Mask teenager, the Assassin brutally beats him and promises him torture. At the last possible moment, Nathan Explosion clubs the Assassin, ending the episode and season with Offdensen presumed dead.

Offdensen's fate was revealed in small amounts throughout season 3, starting with the first episode where he suddenly reappears just in time to save the band from signing a contract that would ultimately end their careers. He tells the band that he had presumed himself dead but has returned to help them get back on their feet. He also says that when the time is right, he will explain everything. As the season progresses, he seemingly returns to his job and tasks of seeing over the band as if nothing had happened, save for being slightly more vigilant in his business handling. In the season finale Doublebookedklok, he goes to great lengths to promote a concert in Israel while the band casually books a concert in Syria on the same day. After receiving a telephone call from the United Nations, Offdensen becomes furious and, for the first time, angrily scolds the band. He goes to great lengths to defuse the double-booking becoming the leading factor in a potential World War (seeing as Syria and Israel are bitter enemies), but is ultimately overwhelmed by the band's shortcomings and coldly dismisses them from his sight. Thinking that their manager finally hates them, they take to the road ill-prepared and on the eve of the concerts. Taking responsibility for neglecting the band, Offdensen locates, apologizes, and convinces them that they have lives to save and to proceed with the concerts. Meanwhile, the Tribunal discusses concerns over the manager faking his death and possibly knowing of the top-secret Falconback Project. Selatcia also reveals to Orlaag that Charles witnessed him possess Crozier and possibly knows of his true nature. In the season 3 finale, Selatcia tells the tribunal that Offdensen is a major threat and condemns him as a "dead man". In the final moments of the finale, we see Offdensen has Edgar Jomfru locked away in the basement of Mordhaus for unknown reasons (but with images of the Falconback Project on computer monitors) and that he has an obvious connection to Selatcia.

Klokateers

Klokateers are the slavishly devoted servants of Dethklok, providing for their every need, such as maintaining the band's various properties, serving as soldiers and bodyguards, and performing as roadies for their concerts and their own personal military and police force. They wear black hoods and black, sleeveless uniforms, and in general resemble medieval executioners. In order to prove their loyalty to Dethklok, Klokateers have a Dethklok gear emblem branded onto the backs of their necks. They always refer to the members of Dethklok as "my lord(s)" or "my master(s)" and are in turn referred to by their numeric designation. They are killed as frequently as any other people who come into contact with Dethklok, if not more so. Klokateers are generally all male, though there are a division of female Klokateers, as revealed in the third season.

The Klokateers obey Dethklok without question, no matter how outrageous the demand, and are willing to give up their lives for the band. They are quick to beat or kill people, with or without orders,[5] and can also function as an army.[4] Even before they are officially hired, they are quite likely to die.[8] The entrance exam alone has a mortality rate of fifty percent, as the participants are required to pair up and fight each other to the death with their bare fists. Ofdensen mentions that, by the time they are made official Klokateers, most will likely have been maimed or killed. Their living conditions are said to be so horrible that their corpses are stuffing the Mordhaus sewer system, which the band notes as being "metal".[8]

Most Klokateers are generic-looking and unnamed. However, one Klokateer in particular is given an identity which makes him easily recognizable in future episodes: Number 216, who is a dwarf.[5][9][10] His appearance could be considered an "easter egg" in the series.

The first use of the term to represent Dethklok's massive gang of henchmen is in The Dethalbum. In the liner notes, Dethklok states their appreciation of their labor, saying "DETHKLOK would like to thank the tireless work of the Klokateers (see we really are good bosses)." "Dethsources" features the first use of the name "Klokateers" within the animated series.[8]

Jean-Pierre

Jean-Pierre is Dethklok's stereotypical French chef, the most recent in a long line to cater to the band. He is passionately loyal to his employers, having stated he "would rather have [his] brains scooped out with a melon baller than miss the opportunity to serve the various cheese snacks to [his] beloved Dethklok", despite the job's inherent risks. All chefs previously employed by Dethklok died in various incidents including one who shot himself (a photo of which is used on an unspecified Dethklok album cover) and another whose face was "smashed in by a hovercraft".

In the pilot episode,[1] Jean-Pierre was mangled when a stray firework missile ejected him from the Dethcopter and into its rotor blades. The blades sliced him into several pieces, making it necessary to connect them together via a complex and strange-looking machine in order to keep him alive. The band incompetently sewed him back together, giving Jean-Pierre a hideous and mutilated appearance (some parts don't quite fit and/or were sewn on backward). Despite the dubious quality of his reconstruction Jean-Pierre returned to work enthusiastically, and his current condition does not appear to have adversely affected his skills as a chef. He can be seen in the background of various episodes, shuffling along. He has avoided additional accidents since.

Dick "Magic Ears" Knubbler

Dick Knubbler is Dethklok's music producer. He has a criminal history; among his laundry list of felonies are tax evasion, disfiguring a co-worker's face with acid, soliciting prostitution and drugs. Initially working for the Tribunal to clear his record, he instead fell in love with Dethklok's music. His eyes exploded from a rapid decompression accident, and were replaced with new "dark metal" robotic eyes.[11] The character has continued as Dethklok's patient producer, avoiding accidents since then.[10][12][13][14][15]

It has been stated that Dick "Magic Ears" Knubbler is a parody of Phil Spector, although his appearance is similar to recording engineer Chuck Ainlay. The Dethalbum and Dethalbum II credit Knubbler with producing, engineering, and mixing.

Dr. Johnathan Twinkletits

Dr. Johnathan Twinkletits (pronounced twink-LET-its, deliberately avoiding the obvious pronunciation) is an insane band therapist, and parody of performance coach Phil Towle and producer Bob Rock. He was formerly a member of an '80s pop band known as the Amazelingtons, whom he killed. He is later hired by Dethklok to help them get along with each other until he tries to nudge his way into Dethklok, fired before his attempt to murder them results with him falling through a window into a pit of wolves who rip his arms off.[16][16][17] He has since returned as a therapist for Mordhaus with new robotic arms.

Dethklok's doctor

Dethklok meets a certain unnamed doctor at various points in the series.[18][19][20][21] The doctor usually does whatever Dethklok asks, despite the fact that they ask him to do things any ordinary doctor would never consider including the assumably forced castration of "Fat Kid", the band's adopted son. He usually responds to their requests with a dejected "whatever."

Facebones

Facebones is an animated version of the Dethklok logo, with a twisted jaw and visible brain (most likely a nod to metal mascots such as Megadeth's Vic Rattlehead, or Iron Maiden's Eddie the Head). Facebones speaks in a high-pitch voice that occasionally modulates into something deeper and more demonic. He is used in videos related to Dethklok, like during fan day, when he told the fans the rules. He also appears in "Murdering Outside the Box," to open the quarterly review.

Outside of fiction, Facebones is used to host video segments in interludes at Dethklok's live concerts. The videos are projected onto a large screen and provide mock 'behind-the-scenes' information. He also appears in the video for Bloodrocuted as an artifact from which the video's protagonist gains power.

Facebones is known to malfunction time to time, where the screen becomes scrambled, usually right as he is about to dispense some important information that has deadly consequences to the Kloketeers and fans.

#216

216 is a Klokateer that is best known for his dwarfism. Introduced in "Murdering outside the Box", he got into a scuffle with a disguised Agent 216 (an assassin sent by General Crozier to kill Dethklok) over who had won the company's raffle draw. The resulting fight between the two lead to #216 being incapacitated; yet, #216 managed to deliver the final blow, tripping Agent 216 before he could kill the band, leading to the assassin's death via cranial impalement on Murderface's diamond-encrusted rhinoceros horn codpiece. He is later seen at the end of the episode in a wheel chair, with an oxygen mask and the codpiece that he won in the raffle.

By the events of "The metalocalypse has begun", #216 had fully recovered from his injuries, and took part in the massive battle between General Crozier's armed forces and the Klokateer Army. His weapon of choice during the battle appeared to be his diamond encrusted codpiece. The battle was close, and while #216 and the Klokateers fought valiantly, they were narrowly defeated. While many Klokateers died during the battle, #216 survived. He is later seen in seasons 2 and 3.

Mordhaus Scientists

Two intelligent and silly scientists who work for Dethklok and create technology for them. They frequently display an inability to present information in an organized manner, often interrupting each other and talking at the same time when explaining new technologies that they have developed.

Recurring characters

Dr. Rockzo

Dr. Rockzo is a self-described "rock and roll clown." He is known for his frequent use of cocaine, excessive lifestyle, and his trademark introduction and catchphrase: "I'm Dr. Rockso, the rock and roll clown ! I do cocaine!". He admits in "Cleanzo" that not only does he use cocaine, but also huffs paint, uses crystal meth, heroin, pain pills, and OxyContin before stating, "I do it all." He once attempted to rob a Columbian drug cartel and was maimed in the process, described by Nathan as "Now he pees out of the side of his dick." Dr. Rockzo's past was originally a mystery, and even the Tribunal could not find out anything about him other than he was the rock and roll clown, and that he does cocaine. Dr. Rockzo's real name is Leonard Rockstein; the hyperactive son of a physical therapist. Rockzo began his music career as the lead singer of Zazz Blammymatazz, a partying glam-rock band named after the guitarist, Bink Bonk Blammymatazz. The logo of Zazz Blammymatazz is a stylized parody of Van Halen's logo. The band quickly became successful; however, Rockzo insisted on being paid in cocaine, and was fired for his violent and erratic behavior. After a short-lived solo career, he began his present life working as a clown for parties.

Rockzo talks in a high-pitched voice, with an occasional, oddly exaggerated stutter, which every member of Dethklok except Toki finds irritating. He wears a very tight neon unitard with cutouts that expose almost his entire torso and, in the back, the top of his buttcrack and outline of his testicles. The rest of his outfit includes a combination cap, long, thick, brightly-colored hair, KISS-like face paint, spiky wristbands, furry boots, and a spiky red nose. The colors of his clothing and hair change between episodes, but are always gaudy and fluorescent.[17][22] It is suggested that he is a ephebophile; he was once arrested for having sexual relations with a minor.

Rockzo seems to be a parody of various events and persons. According to Brendon Small, Dr. Rockzo was supposed to be an amalgam of every kind of front man from the hard-rock era, including Paul Stanley, Axl Rose, and Bret Michaels. Eventually the animators made him resemble David Lee Roth.[23]

Dethklok Minute Host

The Dethklok Minute focuses on Dethklok's usual celebrity stunts such as TV appearances, movies, romances, rumors, and so on. The right side of the host's face is disfigured when a meteor fragment strikes his studio at the end of "P.R. Klok," but it hasn't dampened his enthusiasm about reporting on Dethklok's activities. Prior to being maimed by the meteor fragment, the character bore a strong resemblance to Mark McGrath although the original character design was based on the show's producer Keith Fay.

Pickles' Family

Pickles' family resides in Tomahawk, Wisconsin. His parents are Calvert and Molly, who very obviously favor Pickles' brother Seth. Seth is an ex-con, has no known job, and lives in his parents' garage, and later in a "house room" in their attic. Seth constantly tries to make money from Pickles' fame, even threatening Pickles with identity theft. Eventually Seth was made head of Dethklok Australia, mostly out of Pickles' hatred: The previous managers had been gruesomely murdered at some point, being a highly dangerous position. Seth, however, used the power of his position to reallocate Australia's resources--mainly to protect himself, leaving most of Australia in chaos. Pickles later realizes that the main reason he drinks is to deal with the fact that at age 6, Seth burned down the garage of their house, and blamed it on Pickles. In order to complete his 12-step rehab to rejoin the band, Pickles needs Seth to accept his forgiveness, which he does only when Pickles gives him $5 million.[24][25][26][27]

Toki's Family

Toki's parents are Anja Wartooth and the now deceased Reverend Aslaug Wartooth, two extremely religious people who never speak, smile, or show any emotion whatsoever. They live in an abandoned village near Lillehammer, Norway. They were very harsh and even cruel to Toki during his childhood, forcing him to perform incredibly strenuous tasks for a child such as moving rocks, symmetrically stacking huge amounts of firewood and "sweepings the snow". They would reprimand Toki for the slightest mistakes with beatings and solitary confinement in a "punishment hole".[12][24][28]

In "Dethdad", Toki's triumphant trek up the mountain, the rest of the band's refusal to accompany him, and the small house at the summit[28] closely resemble events in the documentary film True Norwegian Black Metal. In the documentary, black metal vocalist Gaahl takes the American documentarians on a long walk up a snow-covered Norwegian mountain to show them a house he says was built by his grandfather. The filmmakers, not accustomed to Norway's weather and terrain, barely make it to the top, while the much older Gaahl outpaces them all the way to the summit.

Snakes N' Barrels

Snakes N' Barrels (SnB) is Pickles' first band, all of whom (aside from Pickles) fell on hard times after Pickles went to Dethklok.[29] The name of the band is a reference to the band Guns N' Roses, though the band members themselves are a comment on numerous bands, from their drastic physical changes to their poverty in later life (with the exception of Pickles). In season 3 the former members of the Dethklok tribute band Thunderhorse have made a Snakes N' Barrels cover band called Serpents N' Containers. Despite being Dethkloks's drummer, Pickles was the SnB's lead singer and occasional rhythm guitarist.

Antonio "Tony" DiMarco Thunderbottom

Antonio "Tony" DiMarco Thunderbottom is the bassist. He is a former alcoholic and drug addict turned sober. His signature top hat is reminiscent of Slash from Guns N' Roses, though his long hair and accent is a subtle representation of Mötley Crüe guitarist Mick Mars.

Sammy "Candynose" Twinskins

Sammy "Candynose" Twinskins is the drummer. He was formerly addicted to crack cocaine, but has since become sober. A young Candynose looks very much like Poison drummer Rikki Rockett.

Snizzy "Snazz" Bullets

Snizzy "Snazz" Bullets is the rhythm guitar player. He suffers from partial facial paralysis due to hallucinogens and heroin abuse. He later invented a strapless guitar that functions as a girdle, known as a "g-girdle-uitar". The younger Bullets bears a strong resemblance to Joe Perry of Aerosmith. The older Bullets is bald, and bears the scars from a botched hair transplant on his head.

Rikki Kixx

Rikki Kixx (most likely a parody of Mötley Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx, Poison drummer Rikki Rockett and glam metal band Kix) is Pickles' replacement in the band. He hates the "living hell" that is sobriety.[22] His appearance appears to be a parody of Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder.

President of the United States

The President of the United States is a middle-aged bald man. He needs Dethklok to continue to perform in order to stabilize his own approval rating. He is so earnest about this that he is willing to harm himself. In one episode he blows his jaw off with a sawn-off shotgun to placate Dethklok fans during a long period between record releases.[10][30][31]

In the season three episode, "Dethhealth," he seems to have been replaced by a man resembling Barack Obama.

Roy Cornickelson

President of Crystal Mountain Records, the record company that publishes Dethklok, and one of the few people on Earth still powerful enough to have control over Dethklok. At the beginning of Season 3, he seemed deathly ill, and his son Damien was running Crystal Mountain, using the label and Ofdensen's absence to get revenge on Dethklok for humiliating years ago. As of "dethsiduals", however, it seems Roy has recovered, again taking his position as head of the company.

The Revengencers

The Revengencers is an anti-Dethklok terrorist group formed by Edgar Jomfru and the Metal Masked Assassin in an attempt to exact revenge against Dethklok for the pain they have caused them (both their younger brothers were killed by Dethklok's minions). The third member is an unnamed teen who had been imprisoned by Dethklok forces for illegally downloading their music. The teen wears a mask made from the remnants of Eric Jomfru's face.[10][19][25]

Metal Masked Assassin

The Metal Masked Assassin is the brother of Agent 216, who Crozier had sent to kill Dethklok in "Murdering Outside The Box." He is a mysterious psychopath who wears a metal mask and regularly dismembers people while they are still alive. General Crozier recruits him for the assault on the Dethwater concert, allowing the Assassin an opportunity to avenge his brother's death to suit his purpose. During the band's escape from the concert attack, the Assassin is able to separate Skwisgaar and Toki from the rest of the group. As he prepares to kill the guitarists, he is intercepted by Offdensen. After a short bout of hand and knife combat, he is quickly overcome by Offdensen, whose strength he had underestimated. His knife-wielding arm is broken and twisted to stab him in the kidney with his own weapon, and he is kicked into the freezing water nearby.

The Metal-Masked Assassin returns as the principal villain of the 2nd Season, now wearing a metal brace on his elbow and with a consuming hatred towards Offdensen, whom he wants to suffer before killing him. He becomes a founding member of the Revengencers. In "The Revengencers", he poses as a Klokateer guard during Dethklok's concert at St. Necrophagist to take Offdensen by surprise, only for Offdensen to miraculously survive a drop from an upper-story window. In "Black Fire Upon Us", having built up an army of Revengencers, the Assassin leads the assault on Mordhaus itself during the CD release party for the band's new album, personally firing the sonic cannon that brings Mordhaus' shields down and sets the house ablaze. During the ensuing battle, after Offdensen is shot off down by the Death Mask teenager, the Assassin proceeds to brutally beat the manager and promising him torture. However, Nathan Explosion clubs the Assassin from behind with a flaming wooden beam, knocking him down with one blow. His fate remains uncertain.

Edgar Jomfru

Wheelchair ridden Edgar Jomfru ("Jomfru" meaning virgin in Norwegian and Danish) and his brother Eric (voiced by Tommy Blacha) are introduced as the proprietors of diefordethklok.com, the largest Dethklok fan site. In their greed, they attempt to blackmail Dethklok into paying for good reviews on their site by secretly recording an exclusive one-time only song, "Fansong", played by Dethklok during their annual fan day. Their scheme fails miserably when the two brothers are lured into a sniper-filled hallway by Offdensen. Eric is killed instantly, his head blown off and the remnants of his face scattered on his brother, while Edgar, remembering Offdensen's cryptic advice regarding how to cross the narrow corridor beforehand, survives, only to be promptly imprisoned inside the band's dungeon.

Edgar returns in the 2nd Season as the secondary villain of the Season (the Metal-Masked Assassin acting as the main villain). The shock of his brother's death, as well as the brutal torture inflicted upon him by the band's minions, drives Edgar insane: having recovered the remains of his brother's face from the incident, he makes them into a mask for a fellow imprisoned fan who is put into his cell, even referring to the teen as his brother upon doing so. He digs his way out of the prison in the episode "Dethvengeance," the fan tied to his back despite the latter not being handicapped. He is rescued by the Metal Masked Assassin after escaping through the sewage system. He and the assassin start the Revengencers and begin orchestrating terrorist attacks on different Dethklok-related places. The Tribunal describes Edgar as the brains behind the terrorist attacks. He has his nose bitten off by a Dethklok fan while attempting to assassinate Nathan, in the episode "The Revengencers" aka "Sicklok".

In "Black Fire Upon Us", Edgar (having either regained or replaced his nose) masterminds the attack on Mordhaus and even infiltrates Mordhaus himself to personally kill Dethklok. He corners Skwisgaar and Pickles outside the house and prepares to shoot them with a shotgun. As he prepares to shoot them, he flashes back to all the years he and his brother spent as avid Dethklok fans. He lowers his gun as he is unable to kill what were once his idols. Immediately thereafter, a Klokateer kicks his wheelchair over and starts beating him with a night stick. He was eventually revealed to be alive and held within Mordhaus by Offdensen for his own plans.

The Teenager

In "Dethvengance", a teenager is imprisoned and tortured by Klokateers after illegally downloading Dethklok music. There he meets Edgar, who makes him wear a mask made of Eric Jomfru's face and refers to him as his brother. Edgar ties him to his back and escapes from Mordhaus. He joins the Revengencers with Edgar, never speaking and obeying Edgar without question. He participates in the attack on Mordhaus by shooting Offdensen with a crossbow as he is chased by Metal Masked Assassin. Shortly thereafter he is hit in the head by the butt of a rifle by General Crozier. It is unknown if this knocked him unconscious or snapped his neck.

Lavona Succuboso

Lavona Succuboso leads the group "Succuboso Explosion", an extremist faction of women devoted to capturing Nathan Explosion and bearing his children, creating a race of warriors that will conquer the world. Their mantra is "We are the vessels that hold the future." They use a device called the "loin extractor" which is a harpoon-like projectile that attaches to the target's crotch and electrocutes them. It is unknown how the device actually "extracts" the loins, but when Lavona fired the weapon at Nathan during a concert, Murderface jumped in the way and was hit instead. Although the weapon did not actually hit Murderface's crotch, just his bass, he was mildly shocked and a charge was shot back through the weapon which sent Lavona flying completely out of the concert arena.

In "Black Fire Upon Us", Lavona and her followers have allied themselves with the Revengencers to help them attack Mordhaus during their CD release party. She made an agreement with Edgar Jomfru that she would get to have her way with Nathan before he is killed. She makes her way to the roof as Mordhaus burns and meets Nathan and a passed out Toki. She first attacks him, all the while making cryptic comments about having previously met Nathan, but is easily overpowered, causing her to kiss Nathan to get his guard down. She then knees him in the crotch and pulls out the "loin extractor" to finally complete her task. Before she can fire, Toki smashes his liquor bottle over her head, knocking her out. It is unclear whether or not she escaped the inferno of Mordhaus alive.
