Toki Wartooth

Toki Wartooth is the guitarist that my parents named one of my two twin kittens for as a birthday gift. He is the underrated and overlooked rhythm guitarist in Dethklok, an American/Scandinavian death metal band based in the United States. Although he spends most of his time in the shadow of Skwisgaar Skwigelf, Dethklok's "lead Swede" and fastest guitarist in the world, Toki is a beautiful musician and person all round.

He is the youngest member of the band and often behaves very childishly, which is emphasized by his poor English skills (Toki had no English experience prior to moving to America due to being raised in a small, abandoned village Lillehammer, Norway by strictly religious parents - one of his major language problems is that he tends to pluralise incorrectly).

Although most of the time he behaves in a very innocent and naive manner, Toki has a darker side which is considered the most shockingly violent of all the band members (despite apparently doing no illicit drugs and drinking far less than his bandmates). It has also been theorized that those who become close to Toki all suffer horrible deaths or at least frequent violence - a little sick girl and his father most notably.

Ha det bra.
