Name: Loki

Rank: Warrior Godhead of Black Metal

Location: Brooklyn, New York

Bio: Former bassist for Hands of Arioch and the man who set a new Guinness world record for the taking of eight-inch-banged emo scalps in a single day, Loki just vanquished the enemy hordes and pissed in their hollowed-out eye sockets while you were reading that. Quite obviously both the physical and philosophical character basis for Nathan Explosion, his lawsuit against the creators of Metalocalypse is pending. But we expect the outcome to involve severed heads on pikes and steaming hors d'oeuvres of entrails, which Loki will then compose an epic poem about in iambic pentameter.
