Overview

      Cobalt Rasender is the lead singer, songwriter, and bassist (Fame: 2) for well-known metal band Mired, currently on the Nuclear Blast label. The band's been around with fairly minimal change in lineup since the mid-90s, save for a brief hiatus a few years ago. Hardcore metalheads would definitely recognize him. He coined the term "mired metal" to describe the band's particular blend of doom, death, symphonic, gothic, thrash and other styles. His singing style is part death metal growl, part baritone balladier, with an impressive range. The band's music is dark, dramatic and love-and-death-focused but very brutal, inspiring acts of violence and suicide attempts at their shows and rumors of necromancy and Satanism from Cobalt and the band members. Since Cobalt returned from his Durance a few years ago, the music and his concerts have become louder, scarier, more violent, and crazier than ever, not to mention popular with certain kinds of Lost who enjoy using his concerts to harvest Glamour of all sorts.

      No one really knows why Cobalt is in Vermont, or why he joined the Fate's Harvest Freehold -- but he did. A fairly Influential member of the Summer Court, he has a reputation for predictable unpredictability and violent mood swings -- not to mention a towering ego. Plus, he looks like a demon. You don't get much more metal than that.

RP Hooks

  • F*ckin Demon - As beautiful as he remains, it's hard not to notice that he has wings, horns, fangs, claws, and a badass black sword. In other words, he's like his own cover art sprung to life.
  • Bad Sh*t - Cobalt was already troubled pre-Durance, with the music press reporting widely on his drug and alcohol problems, and whisperings of other issues that have landed him in mental institutions (and occasionally, short stints in jail). But none of the latter can be proven, so mention it to Cobalt at the risk of getting your nose broken.
  • Gilded Aspirant - In addition to being a fiery member of the Summer Court, Cobalt likes to draw more attention through his Entitlement, the Sacred Band of the Golden Standard. Perhaps you wish for glory yourself? (Not like you'll ever be as glorious as him!)

Soundtrack

Lamb of God - Embers

Scatter the dust, what we once held in hand seems was never at all
Gone in a gust, not ours to understand, ah, agony perpetual
Holding my breath and close my eyes, for a second I can see you again
Motionless, like that day we lost who we both should have been

Queen - Can't Stop Me Now

I'm a shooting star leaping through the sky
like a tiger defying the laws of gravity.
I'm a racing car passing by like Lady Godiva.
I'm gonna go go go!

Michael Jackson - Rock With You

Out on the floor,
there ain't nobody there but us.
Girl, when you dance,
there's a magic that must be love.
