Which character in fiction is the most hardcore/metal character you've ever seen, and why?


My Submission
My submission is Khun Maschenny Zahard (Data). I'm talking about this little girl:



To help understand why she's so hardcore, some explanation would be needed. So she's something called a Princess of Zahard. She received power from the King (Zahard), through a special procedure, and becomes one of his adopted children.

This is a copy of Maschenny that she left behind in a virtual world after clearing the Hell Train.


In that same virtual world, Maschenny runs into a copy of the younger version of her Father (the copy was also made by Zahard after he cleared the Hell Train, so they were at similar stages in their journey), and literally loses her mind:


Her first comment upon waking up is on just how terrifyingly powerful the King is:


Her reaction? To come up with a plan of engagement to challenge the young King and somehow sneak their comrades past him:

This is wild, because she's the only person that felt that terrifying power, and she's still thinking of proceeding. Imagine someone so powerful that their mere presence literally scares you out of your mind.


The battle commences, and they mount their initial offensives. They all fail miserably with Zahard negging all their attacks without moving.

Maschenny attacks again (solo this time) and Zahard once again negs her attack:



Zahard notices that she attacked under the assumption that she would fail, concluding that she was fully aware of her loss. He asks her why one of his Princesses is choosing to fight him.

Maschenny replies. In that moment when the King bestowed her power on the outside, she marveled at his endless power. Ever since then, she has longed to cross her spear with his, even if just once. However, the circumstances on the outside means that she's destined to never fight him. Which is why even if it's just as data, she'd like to fight the version of him here:

He calls her a fool and then asks her what she thinks after this first exchange they've had.

Maschenny isn't calm β€” on the contrary, she's terrified out of her mind β€” but even more than her terror, she's filled with boundless pleasure:


This is fucking metal.


She feels like even buying time against Zahard would be impossible, so she puts her life on the line and literally goes Super Saiyan:

She attacks him, and Zahard casually handles all that she can dish out:



The best she can accomplish is to crack his mask. Still, he pays her a compliment and decides to finish her off with a special skill:



He left her barely alive and concludes that the fight is over. He wants to move on to deal with the rats that escaped:


She stops him. Their battle is not yet over. She's still not yet done enjoying herself:



Zahard tells her that he tried to spare her life because he liked her courage. Why is she still fighting? She already told him, it's for the sake of her pleasure. She's insulted that he tried to spare her life when she had already resolved herself to die in order to face him.

He acknowledges her resolve and bids her to come, he'll properly kill her this time:


He wrecks the shit out of her again:

And Maschenny still gets back up, she prepares another attack:

But Zahard stops her, her body literally cannot keep up with her anymore:

He comments that the Zahard Princesses have bodies that are tens of thousands of times stronger than normal people, but Maschenny fought to a level where even her vastly superhuman body could not take it anymore.

As he walks away, he hopes that she's satisfied since she was able to fulfill the dream she could not fulfill in the outside world. As Maschenny passes away, she dies with a smile:



Whew, this was insanely long. But yeah, I think this sums up perfectly why Data Maschenny is such a metal character.



I'll add a poll when we have more options later.

The Nameless King from Dark Souls is the most heavy metal character I have ever seen. This character looks like a Heavy Metal album cover:




An explanation you say? Sure. I'll explain why this motherfucker is the heaviest of them all.

The world of Dark Souls is a brutal and merciless one, where even the strongest do not live for very long, and no one is safe from being driven mad by the futility of their existence and actions. It is a world with a millions-year long history, where millions of beings have come in and out of existence over time.

That said, the Nameless King is one of the strongest beings to ever live in this world. He is a character who was born during the first recorded days of history, and does not meet his eventual demise until the literal end of the world millions of years later.

Yes, he was millions of years old when he died. The explanation for this is that the Nameless King was a God, born during the time when the oldest and most powerful Gods were rising to power.

He is the first born son of Lord Gwyn, the greatest, most-worshipped, and most prevalent God to ever exist in the Dark Souls timeline. If the Gods of Dark Souls are like Gods of Greek mythology, Gwyn was like the Zeus of this pantheon. The Nameless King was his firstborn son, born in an era where Gwyn, his fellow gods, and heavenly knights were waging a brutal and costly war against the Ancient Dragons. The Dragons (especially the ancient ones) are the mightiest beings to ever exist in the world of Dark Souls, and the Nameless King was born amidst a brutal war with them, where slaying a single Dragon cost Gwyn hundreds of his own mighty knights.

The Nameless King was born so mighty, so strong, and so impressive, that he distinguished himself against the Dragons as the greatest Dragon Slayer in the history of the world of Dark Souls (where many incredible dragon slayers have lived) and was eventually proclaimed the God of War by Gwyn himself. He became a deific symbol of strength and might, and was worshipped by mortal knights and warriors who dedicated their lives to the pursuit of strength. The greatest warriors of the Dragon War, who would become famed around the world for their incredible strength, worshipped the Nameless King for his strength and power. An entire religion formed by Gwyn's warriors with the Nameless King as the central God worshipped among them, even moreso than Gwyn himself. Perhaps most incredible of all, Gwyn himself, who had declared himself the God of Sunlight, Light and Lightning, was so impressed by the power of his firstborn son, that in addition to being the God of War, Gwyn proclaimed his firstborn son the "heir to Lightning", literally forsaking an aspect of his own godliness to give over to the King.

The Gods go on to win the war against the Dragons and claim the world for themselves, but eventually things start going to shit and...long story, but eventually what happens is the Nameless King decides to give up his own status as a God to go and live among the Dragons. This was considered a heinous betrayal by Gwyn, who was so angry with his son that he removed all references to his son from the history books and wiped his name from history (hence why he is referred to as "Nameless").

The Nameless King would go on to attempt to rebuild Dragon-kind from near extinction as a result of the GodVsDragon War, though most dragons would not accept the King as a figure to rally behind since he had slain so many of them. Over time, an entire religion devoted to Dragon worship would form, its devotees were strong warriors who worshipped Dragons for their strength and power, and the Nameless King would come to be the head of this religion as well.

By the time the world of Dark Souls finally ends, the Nameless King is slain by the Ashen One (the player-character in Dark Souls 3), who finds him protecting Archdragon Peak, the last official home of the Dragons.

The Nameless King rides a Stormdragon into battle, a steed he tamed long ago, and fought in battles beside for a millenia. When his steed his slain, the King tames his soul as was custom in the age of the Gods.
