The best part is the fact that one of the three impaled animals is a Koala

I actually own this. It provides hours of fun (and note the swappable horns -- the back describes what each is for) and I would definitely recommend this action figure to anyone who loves narwhals or hates penguins.

You'd look like that too if you were about to be impaled by The Avenging Unicorn!!
(especially if you had to stand there and wait while it chose just which cornhorn it preferred to skewer ya with!)

I believe there is a Unicorn Versus Narwhal set, too. Have yet to find it in stores, though. Maybe I'm not shopping in the right places...

Well, I'm certain that you're not the least bit afraid of me but, since it sort of relates to my previous avatar (whether directly or indirectly), I'll just state for the record that that was a pic of one of my favourite life and metal moments of all time. I had a current pic up but chose to replace it with that one when I found myself really enjoying myself here. I put the date on it specifically so that I wouldn't be seen as trying to misrepresent my current appearance by using an old photo. That is all.

Hello All! Sorry I'm late to the party, but better late than never!

City/country:
Clearwater/Tampa, Florida

Age:
27 when we sail

What first got you into metal?
When I was little my dad was always listening to classic rock, so I started off with Zep, the Doors, Pink Floyd, etc. As I got older grunge came around, and then that eventually led to some of the mainstream metal. I have to credit my boy Monmisreal for gettin me into all the real good stuff over the last few years though

Play any instruments?
Not unless you count surgical instruments!

Top 5 bands?
Opeth
3 Inches of Blood
Sevendust
Amon Amarth
Ensiferum

What do you do?
I'm an Emergency Medicine Physician Assistant. I LOVE my job! In no other area of medicine can I get paid to spend my days stitching people up, reducing dislocated limbs, and removing Taser barbs from people who, in their own words, "got a little too stupid at the strip club tonight". The ER is medicine at its most metal!

What deck are you on?
M/3

What do you like to do in your spare time?
I'm actually a yoga enthusiast and instructor. I also spend a lot of time gardening, reading and playing video games

Total geek here!

What's a creepy thing I can say when I see you that no stranger should know and will weird you out that I do?
Well since I don't have a pic posted, that might be hard to do! But if you do find me, ask me to show you my best Downward Facing Dog!

City/Country:
Chicago, IL, recently relocated from Ann Arbor, MI

Age:
28 in under a month

What first got you into metal?
What a journey this was. First really started listening to alt/grunge (ala Nirvana, Pearl Jam, The Offspring). Eventually drifted into nu-metal (Coal Chamber, Static-X, many one hit wonder radio friendly groups). After I started college I joined the radio station, and my eyes (ears?) were opened. I began listening to a wide variety of REAL metal bands, primarily based on input from veteran metalheads, with some just based on the look of their album covers (lol). The radio station was a great source for discovering bands, as they had quite an extensive collection and were getting new bands/albums daily. Now I just keep up with various news sources and labels, and just kinda hunt around sometimes.

Play any instruments?
No, tried my hand at bass, but I just couldn't keep up the physical motivation, especially without any sort of instruction. Someday...

Top 5 Bands:
Type O Negative (miss ya Pete)
Agalloch
Amon Amarth
Enslaved
Graveworm

What do you do?
Well you know sometimes I go sit down, sometimes I sit... I lay down, sometimes I close my eyes, sometimes I get a book, you know, sometimes I look at a tv...

Hah, not really. I recently started a job with a wind energy company, remotely monitoring and troubleshooting many, many turbines. Pretty awesome. Other than that I vomit, slur and stumble around just like everyone else.

What do you like to do in your spare time?
Listen to metal, go to concerts (haven't done so in too long now), play games (video, ccg, board, etc.), eat good food and drink

What deck are you on?
Deck 6, near the stern

What's a creepy thing I can say when I see you that no stranger should know and will weird you out that I do?
Uhm... my first concert was Everclear, with opening act Nickelback... ? Can't believe I liked that crap back then.

Lookin forward to an awesome week!
