Euronymous

Euronymous has straight, usually long, black hair with bangs framing his face. He has fair skin, dark eyes, and delicate facial features. He has a serious expression, defined eyebrows, and a face that often conveys a mysterious air. He is relatively thin, but has some (quite a lot of) muscle from carrying an amplifier. His style is predominantly black, with band t-shirts, dark jackets, and clothing that matches the underground aesthetic of Norwegian black metal. Sometimes he wears dark makeup, reinforcing his dark and characteristic appearance.

He likes to play guitar, create shocking music, he likes to work at Helvete when there aren't any posers around. He likes to discuss music, ideologies, and he's a communist, so he teaches his friends (the few who don't know) what communism is. And he's left-wing, and loves Coca-Cola. He drinks a lot (a lot, really), mainly whiskey, but he'll accept anything with alcohol. He's set fire to some churches, Fantoft, Skjold, and Åsane. And especially with Varg. They (his little group, Black Circle) love to hang out in the basement of Helvete, doing their black metal stuff. And he has a white cockatoo. And his real name is Østeyn Aarseth. He's quite bourgeois, and his two parents live in a mansion on a peninsula.

One of his great friends, for now, is Varg, and that includes Hellhammer, the band's drummer, Mayhem, the original drummer who left the band, Necrobutcher, Mayhem's bassist, Dead, who was a friend because he killed himself with a gunshot to the head, Metalion too, even though he loves taking pictures of everything, and also Faust, even though he's the youngest. Varg and Euronymous adore each other, at least Euronymous adores Varg.

Euronymous was a charismatic, provocative, proud, and highly competitive person. He enjoyed shocking people, challenging conventions, and cultivating a dark and mysterious image. He was intelligent, curious, and passionate about music, and had influence in the Norwegian black metal scene. He could also be funny, playful, and calm in private, according to accounts from people who knew him. At the same time, he seemed to care deeply about his reputation and influence, engaging in rivalries and ideological disputes. His personality was complex, marked by the contrast between his private behavior and the extreme image he cultivated publicly.
