Metalocalypse/Characters

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Before this page was used to make a Metalocalypse character page, it used to be the blackest present for the most brutal of all tropers. NOTHING!

Dethklok

The Band

Band Tropes

Skwisgaar Skwigelf (Taller than a Tree)


Toki Wartooth (Not a Bumblebee)

William Murderface (Murderface Murderface)

  • The Big Guy: Subverted in that despite his figure, he is actually a very uncertain and emotionally sensitive person.
  • Butt Monkey
  • Catch Phrase: "Piss!" and other variants. Also "I was thinking.. not very hard, mind you".
  • Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: He's mostly a moronic, mooching Ted Baxter, but the man can play bass with body parts that weren't meant to touch an instrument. He can also write music like the others, but he won't until his own money is in jeopardy.
  • Expy: Of Geezer Butler
  • Freud Was Right: Muderface is very apprehensive about eating hot dogs, bananas and sausages.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes
  • Gonk: To the point there is not a woman on earth that will sleep with him.
  • Identical Grandson: To his grandma, Stella.
  • Jerkass Woobie: Even the creators of the show agree, Murderface is a tortured soul who desperately needs acceptance and a cure for his extreme loneliness and sensitivity... but he is also a complete and total asshole who is repugnant in every way.
  • Names to Run Away From Really Fast
  • Nobody Loves the Bassist: Comes in around season two where its revealed that Nathan often time edits out his tracks on albums. The finale of season two also saw Murderface get mocked by two groupies just because he's the bassist.
  • Shower of Angst: After an "incident" at the doctor's office.
  • The Southpaw: Possibly. He signed a contract with his left hand.
    • Given that he plays right handed, and even refers to his right hand as his bass playing hand, its possible he's ambidextrous.
    • That hand was his left hand, he picks with his right.
    • Which is how right handed people play bass and guitar in general.
  • Ted Baxter
  • Tsundere
  • Ugly Cute
  • The Woobie

Pickles the Drummer (Doodily Doo, Ding Dong Doodily Doodily Doo)

  • American Accents: Being from WI, he speaks with a sort of a hybrid of Inland North and North Central accents.
  • Berserk Button: Being reminded that he's The Unfavorite. That and sobriety it seems.
  • By the Power of Greyskull: "By the power of all that is evil, I command you to awaken and MAKE ME A SANDWICH!"
  • Catch Phrase: "Douchebags!" or "Motherdouchebags!"
  • Expy: Of Devin Townsend from metal band, Strapping Young Lad (appearance), Axl Rose (being the former front man of Guns N' Roses parody band, Snakes N' Barrels) and Roger Taylor (drum playing style according to Brendon Small).
  • Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow
  • Immune to Drugs
  • Odd Name Out: Really, Pickles?
  • Old Shame: The former front man for hair metal band Snakes N' Barrels.
  • Only One Name: Unless you count his title on the band.
  • Self Fanservice: It seems many people who make fan art of him seem to completely ignore the fact that he is balding and has a dread-lock comb-over, giving him a flowing straight full head of hair.
    • Even fanworks with a less idealized art style often exaggerate the height difference between Pickles and the other band members for the purposes of humor or cuteness.
  • Sex, Drugs and Rock and Roll: Pickles was a part of this culture in The Eighties.
  • The Smart Guy: The smartest guy in Dethklok anyway. He's the most multi-talented of the group, because of his experience with Snakes N Barrels.
  • The Unfavorite: In his family, what's worse, his conman, leach of a brother is the favorite.
  • "Well Done, Son" Guy: When Murderface tried to act fatherly to Skwisgaar, Pickles acted this trope, in part due to his own father's neglect.
  • The Woobie


Nathan Explosion

Magnus Hammersmith (M.H., formerly known as The Unknown Member)

The Staff

Charles Foster Ofdensen

Dick Knubbler

  • Artificial Limbs
  • Expy/NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Of record producer Phil Spector.
  • Eye Scream: At the end of "Dethwater", while trying to escape a giant mutant seahorse, he resurfaces his sub too quickly. This makes his eyes literally explode. He receives his robot eyes afterward.
  • Heel Face Turn: Originally a mole for the Tribunal sent in to monitor Dethklok's album recordings. At the end of "Dethwater", he renounces the Tribunal, as the power of metal has converted him.
  • Hollywood Cyborg
  • Monochromatic Eyes: Green... (Red when angry).
  • No One Could Survive That
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: Unless he gets pissed off at the band.

Oscar and Rose Explosion

  • Abusive Parents: Subverted, they are actually very good parents to Nathan overall. Still, Rose can get drunk and embarrassing, while Oscar resents Nathan for making give up his drinking to raise him.

Serveta Skwigelf

Aslaug and Anja Wartooth

  • Abusive Parents: Aslaug, who is apparently a reverend, would regularly abuse and treat Toki cruelly. The level of physical and emotional abuse Toki endured form him was ridiculous, yet Toki loved his father enough to try to give him his dying wish.
  • Death Glare: Both... to Toki... constantly.
  • Humiliation Conga: Aslaug, minutes before he died, some would say he deserved it for how he treated Toki.
  • Killed Off for Real: Aslaug

  • Oh Crap: When the band's families are introduced in "Dethfam", Toki spends most of the episode mute in shock just by his parents being there.
