Ah, memories of playing Battletoads in the arcade and on the home consoles. The crossover with Double Dragon was cool, but Battlemaniacs is my all-time favorite.
And now, let's find out more about our heroes:
Rash was originally a human named Dave Shar (his surname is even an anagram of "Rash"
. Dave was a computer technician who worked with his two friends and roommates, Morgan Ziegler (who would become Zitz) and George Pie (who would become Pimple). The trio tested the original Battletoads game by playing the game as the 'Toads in a sort of virtual reality simulation. Dave and his friends became suspicious of both their boss and chief game programmer Silas Volkmire and decided to investigate the office at night. Upon finding the video game unit turned on, they decided to test the machine to see if it had been tampered with. Not until it was too late did they realize this was a trap and they were transported to another planet, permanently transformed into the 'Toads en route. The Dark Queen attempted to persuade the 'Toads to work for her, but the 'Toads refused and fought their way to freedom with the assistance of Professor T. Bird, who became the 'Toads' friend and mentor. The 'Toads then decided never to rest until the Dark Queen was defeated once and for all.
Rash is currently the team jokester. He really never assumes the lead in any fight but is capable of fighting on his own if so needed.
Zitz was originally a human named Morgan Ziegler. Ziegler was a computer technician who worked with his two friends and roommates, Dave Shar and George Pie. tz is currently the leader of the 'Toads and makes their combat decisions. He acts on any advice given to him by Professor T. Bird and uses his own tactical prowess to determine how he and the 'Toads will fight.
Pimple was originally a human named George Pie. George was a computer technician who worked with his two friends and roommates, Dave Shar and Morgan Ziegler. Pimple is the team's muscle yet compared to his teammates, he is not the brightest of the toads. He leaves the talking to Rash and Zitz and speaks with his fists. Accordingly, his motto is, "Where brainpower fails, brute force prevails!"
The 'Toads deserve respect...that and punting bad guys with big-ass boots and ramming them with oversized ram horns was always fun to do. Good times.
