=== Appearance === | |||
Billy is a slender man with a black and gray goat head, yellow eyes, spiky hair, tall ears with nails, an earring and an animal tag, and tall horns punctured with nails. His human body has white skin. He wears a spiky black leather jacket with many occult patches and pins, a yellow shirt that says "Mosh Fiend", striped black, red and green pants with hanging yellow and red suspenders, red socks, and tall brown shoes with green and orange shoelaces. His clothes are ripped. He carries a goat plushy on the left side of his pants, and has a fingerless black glove on his right hand, a spiky black bracelet on his left hand, and rings in his left index and middle finger. His weapon is a spiky orange submachine gun simlar to an [[wikipedia:Heckler_&_Koch_MP5|MP5]], with the words "cretin" and "spit it out" painted on the sides. He also carries a spiked bat, used for {{AbilityIcon|Bashdown}}. | |||
Billy does a [[wikipedia:Sign_of_the_horns|sign of the horns]] when riding the zipline. This can be a reference to both his actual goat horns and his love of punk music, as well as a common salute in Satanism and occult practices. | |||
=== Information === | |||
"[[wikipedia:Billy_goat_(disambiguation)|Billy goat]]" is a term used for a male goat. | |||
Billy's weapon name, '''Biquette''', means "young female goat" in French. It is a reference to "[[wikipedia:Biquette|Biquette the punk rock goat]]", who went viral on the internet for hanging around punk rock and metal concerts. | |||
