RIFF — The Six-String Warlock of the Howling Void

Born from a supernova’s final scream, RIFF wields the Forbidden Flying V—an axe forged from collapsed starlight and the jawbone of a devoured god
When he strikes a chord, galaxies seize, nebulae rupture, and entire timelines forget their own continuity
His solos are cataclysmic incantations that shear open reality like wet parchment, unleashing astral beasts that feed on silence itself

“I want to bring chaotic, gleaming, earth-shattering metal to planets everywhere“

—Riff Thunderbeard

Born in a Martian crater under the blood-red moons of Mars, Riff Thunderbeard was the offspring of a rogue space miner and a mystical garden gnome. From the moment he could crawl, he banged on rocks and metallic debris, crafting his first “guitar” out of scrap and cosmic wires.

At age 50 (gnome years), he discovered an ancient Flying V guitar buried beneath the Martian dunes. Upon touching it, his beard ignited with sparks of raw power, and he gained the ability to shred riffs so fast they could bend space-time. He formed a band with fellow Martian gnome outlaws — Snax Hammerfist and Blastin’ Stumps — to conquer the universe, one arena at a time.

Riff’s Quest: to bring chaotic, gleaming, earth-shattering metal to planets everywhere — preferably while riding a flaming Martian motorcycle. He lives for the stage, the roar of the crowd, and, of course, caffeinated interstellar snacks.
