Sebastian Schvagenbagen, better known as Glam. He is the husband of Victoria and the father of Dee and Heavy. His nickname is based on the glam metal genre, a subgenre of hard rock and heavy metal.

Appearance: Glam is tall and thin, has fluffy blond hair, blue eyes, and is smiling nearly all of the time. As a teenager, he had bags under his eyes, which got worse after he started his secret double life during the night and had to cover them up with dark eyeliner and makeup. He also has double helix piercings in each of his ears and is usually seen wearing a suit like the rest of his aristocratic family. He keeps this look well into his adult years. His hair is usually worn loose, although is worn in a ponytail when he is working or cooking.

He usually wears long shirts, coats, and black boots, while also sometimes wearing a denim vest that was given to him by Ches. The vest currently has 3 band patches: Stratovarius, Helloween, and Twisted Sister.

Personality: Glam is a very optimistic, intelligent and educated man, who, despite his traumatic childhood, tries to be as polite as possible with everyone. However, he is very direct, he usually speaks very honestly and sharply but does not want to offend anyone in his own words. He is typically quite calm, and it's difficult to make him lose his temper. When he does start to lose his temper, he pulls himself down from it immediately, which is shown when Glam is teaching Dee guitar. Glam does not love his father and actively tries not to be like him, though it seems to be a struggle at times, as seems to indicate that he holds those unfair opinions of Dee regardless. (Although he tries not to be like his father, Gustav, Glam states that he has forgiven him.) He is purposeful, morally strong, had the perseverance to get close to Vicky, and had the courage to leave his father. He’s also cunning and is unlikely to do anything risky if he has not planned it. In the game of poker, he loses to Ches, due to the inability to predict the chaotic actions of his friend.

Trivia: Glam is not apathetic, he just has the ability to conceal and control his emotions and his range of emotions and his understanding of others' emotions are both very limited. Glam wears a wristband in order to cover the ruler scars on his wrist. It is confirmed that Glam is an atheist and does not believe in the supernatural. However, this could also be due to his traumatic upbringing, as his parents were Christians. Glam seems to like the color pink since his keychain, glitter bombs and some of his shirts are pink. Glam keeps his old violin in a glass showcase in his office. Glam would have never met Victoria if he had gone with his band mates when they parted ways. His band broke up because "they had disagreements". He does his hair by splitting it into sections, then brushing it, then locks it down with hairspray. This procedure takes him around 40 minutes. After leaving his childhood home he missed Lydia "a little". When Dee went off key singing a satanic lullaby at kindergarten Glam was so embarrassed he transferred Dee to another kindergarten. He doesn't drink nor smoke because he "doesn't need to". His refusal to drink may stem from his father, who drank often. However, he does not seem to have an issue with his wife's drinking, most likely since she seems more responsible with her intake/does not abuse the children. Victoria gets into fights because of Glam. Glam got his first piercing at 20 years old. Glam has 8 guitars and his favorite is the Gibson one. He knows Dee sneaks out of home at night. He prefers to spend his free time on self-development. He doesn't tell his family about his past since they are not interested. This means his family, besides his friend Ches, doesn’t know about Glam’s background Pre-Meeting Victoria. Besides music, his hobbies include Astronomy, History, hard science, literature and art. He prefers healthy food and his meals are planned a week in advance. When told he is creepy, strangely he takes it as a compliment. He never saw his father again after running away. Both Glam and Vicky take care of the cooking and housekeeping and he’s perfectly fine with the fact that Vicky is physically stronger than him. Vicky was the first biker woman Glam met. He charges 96 dollars per hour for guitar lessons. He works in the music industry and tutoring. The awards Glam has on his office's shelves were gifts from his students. During his first dinner with Vicky, Glam was afraid that the steak could be too dry. His favorite chess opening is the Bishop's gambit. He and Ches like Måneskin. Them getting married in leather jacket's was Vicky's idea. They were rented but the couple was unable to return them since they had left the wedding on her motorcycle and Vicky was so drunk that they crashed and ruined the jackets. Glam used to grow plants to make an herbarium from them. He found out Vicky was pregnant through a standard pregnancy test and was very happy. He can play guitar, bass, violin and keyboard. He likes how rough and hot tempered Victoria is and her "majestic frame". If he could bring something from the past he'd bring back his old diary because he forgot what he wrote in there. He claims he has a wonderful relationship with his kids and that raising kids is hard as they are too willful. He painted the paintings that hung around the house. He doesn't see any resemblance between his past self and Dee. He likes Warcraft and plays Alliance. He has 6 parts of his body pierced. He knows full well how badly he treated Dee during the guitar lesson and he isn't sorry, stating his actions as "not being harsh, but being straightforward." He designed the family's key holder and Vicky built it. It didn't take long for him to settle down with Ches. He didn't travel much with his band. Glam is left-handed. However, he appears to play guitar/violin right-handed (the neck being held in the left hand, and strummed/bowed with the right) His first name, Sebastian.

Victoria, Glam's wife, and the mother of Dee and Heavy. Often called by her shortened name, Vicky.

Personality: Vicky is a very strong and short tempered woman and doesn't have the best social awareness. She isn't afraid to fight at the drop of a hat. More so if someone hurts her or her family. She is best described as being hypermasculine or tomboyish, as she is interested in motorcycles and doesn’t appear to like “girly” things. She is very vulgar and is prone to excessive swearing and general aggressive behavior.

Appearance: Vicky is tall and muscular, just like the rest of the members of her biker gang. She has has waist-length orange-red hair and green eyes. She is usually seen wearing a leather vest and leather boots with black pants and a black t-shirt. She typically wears her long hair in a braid down her back with two wavy strands on each side of her head. She also has a black tribal-tattoo on her right upper arm.

Trivia: She doesn't like car rides in general, and in particular sitting in the back, stating she feels constrained sitting there. Victoria dislikes dresses but was willing to wear one per Glam's request. Ironically, Victoria doesn't like it when her sons curse even though she herself swears a lot, although it's possible that she doesn't like them swearing in public. Vicky was to be an outcast during her childhood due to the other girls being either afraid or disgusted of her rough and tumble personality. Glam chose to take Victoria's last name when they got married since she was both surprised and very amused upon hearing his last name Shvagenbagen. Victoria and Glam have been married for 16-17 years, although Victoria doesn't quite know how long exactly. She got her first tattoo at the age of 17. She allowed her children to try beer when they were younger so that they could stop asking her to let them try it and they were grossed out by it. Victoria doesn't have a relationship with her parents. Victoria described her childhood as "normal" and overall seems very reluctant to discuss it. Victoria doesn't know much about Glam's family or his past since he never told her about it and she doesn't ask either. Victoria met Anna when she was having trouble with her motorcycle, and Victoria did her best to help. After that they became friends. She thinks the best kind of motorcycle is the one that you build yourself. When asked if she has ever been interested in women she just answered that "you do a lot of things when drunk". Her attitude when answering implies she isn't sure if she isn't interested in women herself. She can drink 5-6 cans of beer in a row. She admits that she sometimes smacks her children on the head when they misbehave as a warning. She can lift 50kg with 9 reps. Victoria possibly never finished school since she stated that she barely attended school. When her sons were much younger, she thought Dee was a handful until Heavy was born and realized how easy Dee was to handle because he was always quiet while Heavy cried a lot. She thinks Glam's makeup is pretty. She doesn't care if people think Glam is physically weaker than her. She would rather hit someone in the throat instead of the groin since "she is not that cruel". She prefers KFC over McDonald's. She is sure neither of her sons are LGBT+ (or that at least Heavy won't be). She thinks Dee will get a girlfriend before Heavy because he is the oldest and has great makeup. Victoria is glad she never had a daughter since she didn't want to deal with having dolls or other girly stuff around the house. Victoria, like Glam, won't allow any pets in the house since she doesn't want to be stuck cleaning up after the pets. Her favorite food is meat. To be exact, she has said her favorite dish is a medium-rare grilled steak. She lost her wedding ring and asked Anna not to tell Glam. Victoria may be an Atheist or just not religious since Alina stated that neither Vicky nor Glam could ever have their children christened.

Dee is the eldest son of Glam and Vicky and the older brother of Heavy.

Appearance: Dee strongly takes after his father, having his blonde hair, his blue eyes, his rectangle jaw and his slim silhouette, but he also has his mother's curly hair, freckles, and round nose.

His hair is mid-length and tied back into a low ponytail with a single strand falling into his face. He is usually dressed in a black T-shirt under an unbuttoned white jacket with rolled up sleeves, grayish-blue pants and black boots. He also sports several accessories, like black wristbands and bracelets, dark eyeliner, a black choker and two helix piercings on each ear. He is almost always seen with a tired/gloomy expression on his face. He also speaks in a deep nasally-voice.

Personality: Much like with his appearance, he strongly takes after his father, having his quiet disposition, high intelligence, and sadistic tendencies, but he also has his mother's unfriendly attitude and bad temper.

Dee helping other students cheat on their exams in exchange for money and defending his younger brother, Heavy, from Chipmunk. This shows us how he uses his intellect to make money & benefit himself, and helps to establish his role as a (albeit, non-admittedly) caring older brother. These traits are strengthened further in the show, where we see him using his skills with technology to clear cameras of evidence that would've incriminated his mother and add fake evidence to frame the guys pressing charges for illegal videos on said cameras. Dee also has access to the school's security cameras. He has a history of blackmailing students and making many deals, though, he does always keep his word.

Dee is also a very good liar. He lies about not watching My Little Pony, and he lies very easily to his father about the black rat he has hiding in his room.

Dee also knows five languages, and has been shown doing multiple subjects of homework at once in sketches, and is very intuitive with most people's moves. He likes to collect information on people. He knows Lif's schedule, habits, and where she lives, and it's also implied he has stalked Gopher a bit since he knew that he would stare at the PlayStation on display in a store window after school.

Dee might potentially be a pyromaniac. This is backed with many sketches being drawn of him setting things on fire, and only ever smiling during these times. He is also smiling while setting something on fire with Heavy in one of his Instagram posts. Despite being good at many things, Dee is shown to struggle with picking up playing the guitar while Heavy is able to play almost right away. This frustrates Dee, and after an argument with his father, he decides to give up on trying to learn guitar.

Trivia: Dee was named after Dee Snider from Twisted Sister. He is in the 10th grade. He can speak English, Latin, Spanish and "a little of everything". He wears makeup just because he likes it. He doesn’t make distinctions among the people who surround him or people with lower intelligence than his own. He likes physics and chemistry but is currently interested in psychology. He likes Nu Metal, Heavy Metal, Alternative Metal, Metalcore, and listens to the bands Omnium Gatherum, Black Veil Brides, Ghost and My Chemical Romance. He gave up on learning how to play the guitar. He doesn't know that his paternal grandfather's name is Gustav. He stated that the cigarettes Glam found were not his, but his mother's. (Victoria confirmed this). He doesn't care about working out since he thinks intelligence is far more important. When asked about where he sneaks off to at night, he lied and said he goes to the bathroom and leaves through the window to avoid going through Heavy's room and waking him up. He doesn't like VK, TikTok, or Instagram. He is an Atheist. He doesn't know where he will study but isn't worried about that. He has "his methods" on dealing with bullying. He prefers cars over bikes as they are safer. It takes him 10 to 15 minutes to do his hair to go out. He described his relationship with his family as "normal". Unlike Dee Snider, whose real name is Daniel, Dee's full name is just Dee. He refuses to allow anyone to dishonour or make fun of anybody in his family. He accuses whoever asked him if his parents were abusive of projecting their personal problems on his family. Dee likes girls who take care of themselves and dress nice. Dee sees Ches as an uncle of some sorts. Upon being asked if he felt bad about Glam insulting him, Dee brushed it off as one of "Glam's moments". Dee has multiple phones. Dee plans to move out as soon as he turns 18 since he wants more personal space. He doesn't like having his hair loose. He watches My Little Pony but pretends he doesn’t. (He to favor Rarity saying she takes care of herself.) He doesn't drink alcohol because he "doesn't need it". Ches stated that he favours Dee over Heavy albeit he feels sorry for Dee since he thinks Dee is "too smart to be happy". He have some kind of chronic sickness appearing sick a lot in Instagram. Ches gave him his green jacket first as the jacket was shown to be big on him while on heavy it seemed to be roughly his size meaning that it was later that dee gave it to heavy. Dee's classmates think of him as clever. Dee's history teacher called Dee "a calm- smart and clever young man" Lif seems to thing of Dee as knowledgeable albeit its unclear if she was talking to him then but she was talking about his online persona (Dark Prince) which now she knows they are the same. assuming Dee was supposed to choose where to pierce just like heavy, he choose to have them like his father. When he was in kindergarten, he sung a satanic lullaby Glam had sung to him. Dee went off key singing and Glam was so embarrassed he transferred Dee to another kindergarten. Dee, like Heavy and Vicky, doesn't seem to have much interest in Glam's family or past.

Appearance: Heavy strongly takes after his mother, having her orange hair, her green eyes, her round nose, her triangle jaw and her solid silhouette, but he also has his father's straight hair and lack of freckles.

His hair is long enough for people to confuse him for a girl and he doesn't wash it often. His typical outfit consists of a black T-shirt, blue jeans, and dark red sneakers. He sometimes wears a green jacket which previously belonged to Ches. He has two piercings in each of his eyebrows, which were the same ones Ches gave Glam, then he passed on to Dee and then Heavy.

Personality: Much like with his appearance, he strongly takes after his mother, having her loud disposition, low intelligence, and combative tendencies, but he also has his father's friendly attitude and good temper.

Despite his lack of intelligence, Heavy makes up for it with kindness and overall outgoing personality. His older brother, Dee, is someone Heavy particularly looks up to. Heavy is also very sociable and easygoing.

Trivia: He was named after the music genre "Heavy Metal". He is in the 8th grade. He has an Instagram account. Heavy is the only boy in his family who doesn't wear make up.

Chesnok, also simply as Ches, is Glam's bandmate and best friend. He and Glam met in their late teen hood, where Ches helped Glam find true happiness in metal music.

Just as Ches was the one to give Glam his nickname, Chesnok is the nickname given by Glam to him originally intended as an insult due to him being "stinky and green like young sprout of garlic." His true name is still unknown.

Appearance: During Ches' young adulthood, he had a lean physique that turned slightly more full as he grew up. He kept his tan skin, brown fluffy hair and dark grey eyes. Ches also has lost one of his front teeth. He is usually seen wearing a maroon coloured shirt with a dark green jacket over it, jeans, and a necklace which had yellow circle charms. In his "band days", he has scruffy facial hair both in the form of a wispy mustache a few hairs on his chin. He is seen wearing a black trench coat and full black outfit when performing. In adulthood, his hair has been grown out and he has a light beard. He is commonly seen with a gray shirt, a plaid jacket, and jeans. He wears a few pieces of jewellery such as a necklace, wrist cuffs, bracelet, and ear lobe piercings.

Trivia: Ches is known to be unrealistically lucky. Ches is a good listener. Heavy mentioned that listening to punk rock is somehow better with "Uncle Ches". Ches is one of the only people Glam truly respects. When discussing character flaws, it was said that Ches' flaw is that he is irresponsible. It has been stated he has a "cosmic orientation". In other words, he's either gay or bisexual. Glam mentioned that Ches once used a guitar to wipe his butt. Heavy mentioned in his Instagram that he and Dee found Ches sitting on their roof and helped them take a picture of a shooting star, albeit Ches' reasons for sitting on their house's roof is unknown. After his mother's passing, Ches is found by Glam in the alleyway by a dumpster. He may have issues with the tax office since he made up a name when asked what his full name was. He thinks Anna has a nice house. He is unfazed over the fact that there is a picture of him almost naked in Heavy's instagram. Ches calls having a family is an "interesting fetish" He likes green tea and anything matcha flavored. The song he wrote titled "There Grows A Pine" was inspired by a tree growing outside his trailer, but that it was a birch and Ches changed it to a pine because it sounded better. He likes garlic but only fried and used to condiment chicken. He doesn't consider himself a hermit but a hoarder. He doesn't use bikes and claims cars are better because you can make love in them. When he asks what is it between him and Anna he just says "nothing illegal" He doesn't know what happened to his father, but they have one thing in common: "They don't give a shit about each other". He likes the band "System of a Down" and thinks Shavo's beard is pretty cool. He banned his customers from ringing the bell on his desk. Upon finding out Glam was dating Vicky, Ches was shocked because he thought Glam was gay, potentially meaning he wouldn’t mind having an LGBTQ+ friend. He got his beaded bracelet from a cereal box.

Lif:

Age: 16 Eye Color: Brown (Red if there are lenses) Hair Color: Black Occupation: Student

Friends: Dee, Heavy

Enemies: Her teacher

Likes: Hanging out with Dee and Heavy, Omnium Gatherum, Art/Drawing, Black rats, Exploring graveyards and abandoned places, Heavy's tales about hunting down zombies, Cockroaches

Lif is a teenage girl and Dee's love interest.

Appearance: She has a tall and slim body figure, pale skin, long sleek black hair with a strand going down the middle of her face, and her eyes are red with vertically slit pupils (contacts).

For clothes, she is often seen wearing a black strapless top over a loose long sleeved grey shirt and tight-fitting short black shorts. There are bracelets on her wrists. On her legs are black thigh-high stockings and massive black boots.

Personality: Lif is very nice and friendly, sweet and caring towards those she likes, but isn’t afraid to speak her mind and swear at people who attack her. She was shown happily following along on Heavy's made believe tales about fighting off zombies and looking distressed when she thought Dee was angry over being late for escorting her home, albeit this is false since Dee was upset that his first live interaction with Lif went wrong but she remains unaware of this. She’s also very considerate towards other people’s feelings, shown when she convinced Dee to take Heavy exploring for Heavy's birthday, and hates being a burden to others, which was shown when she became distressed after having a hallucination in front of Dee’s family. She enjoys art, often seen carrying around her sketchbook, and has a hobby of exploring abandoned buildings at night. She also loves insects (specifically cockroaches), arachnids and black rats.

She has a pet tarantula (a Goliath bird eater) that she begged her parents for in exchange of improving her test scores. She keeps it in a well cared for enclosure in her room next to the foot of her bed. It is likely that she enjoys anime too as she was shown with an Asuka figurine on her desk. She is reported to enjoy gothic fashion due to its dark and feminine style (and because she doesn’t enjoy matching colors). She has a hard time concentrating on her studies, often doodling away in the margins of her textbook. She also has a bit of a messy room, with clothes strewn about here and there, and has personalized the decor to suit her tastes (ripping off parts of the wallpaper, carving the door and painting handprints on it).

Trivia: Lif's Instagram is creepy_bloody_kitty. "Lif" is a Norwegian name and modern form of a diminutive "Líf" of an Old Norse name "Hlíf", that means "Protection". "Liv" is also a Norwegian name derived from "Hlíf" that means "Life", which is ironic, considering her love for graveyards, blood/gore and taking pictures of dead animals. She likes cats as her profile picture when talking to Dee is a cat with blood and her username is creepy_bloody_kitty. According to Dee, Lif is always the last one to come out of the school once class is over and always has to go back inside to retrieve something she forgot. It is also revealed that besides talking to her on social media, Dee has been spying on her for quite some time. It's possible that besides liking the color black she may also like the color violet as well since her scrapbooks and clipboard are violet. Dee likes Lif because of her "unique" personality and because, as he is a strange guy, he likes strange girls like her. Lif experiences Apophenia, a symptom of schizophrenia. She takes antipsychotics to control the symptoms.
