The gang gets larger...

The Putrefactor looks like a space biker version of Poison Ivy.

I like the putrefaction colors and overall design. I also like the shape of the bone bike.

I imagine that this is why the BrikVerse hasn't experienced a classical Apocalypse yet. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse would bring about the end of all awesomeness and so would be based on anti-BW Values. But Space Bikes are cooler than Horses, so they keep getting smacked back down and the Bikers will be goddamned if they don't get to end it all their own way.

Bringing forth Ragnablok is hard work! Just to think of all the planning to make it happen would give anyone a headache. I guess that's why the Four Horsemen decided to procrastinate that for tomorrow (whenever) and just bike, bar-fight and drink all day across the Brikverse.

Anyways, they're actually quite well themed with their supposed horseman:

Hatredchopper? - War
The Einherjar - Conquest
The Haggard Hog - Death
The Putrefactor - Pestilence

The actual "Brikverse harbingers of doom" would be hella boring, something like:

The White rider of Vanity Soaps (talking about awesome instead of acting out awesome things);

The Black rider of Needless Fluff (dulling the minifigs' bloodthirst with arbitrary politics);

The Red rider of Assquerious (leading huge armies with no purpose or personality);

and the Pale rider of Anorakism (sucking out all the fun with painstaking number crunching and powergamer attitude).

Edit:
Hatredchopper? - War
The Einherjar - Conquest
The Haggard Hog - Death
The Putrefactor - Pestilence
You're pretty much correct! Although at the initial planning stage I had the following setup in mind:

Hellcycle - Death
Einherjar - War
Haggard Hog - Famine
Putrefactor - Pestilence

It only dawned on me during later research that 'Pestilence' and 'Conquest' represent the same rider in different translations. So I'd say either take is sort of correct as the aspects are kind of interchangeable.

My friend ran a D&D game where the enemies where the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (following a game where the defeat of the Seven Deadly Sins actually ended up spawning them). We had this debate so many times that all Four began to bleed together. Get philosophical enough about it and they're all translations. Now, we did agree that the two popular representations of horsemen in War and Conquest were most similar. But that may have been the theme of the game talking.

Hey, those are quite good. I had previously written:
Ice Fields of Skadus on the BrikWiki wrote:Deep in the future, possibly near R. 3,955, minifigs of the Skadus System in the Krysto Region wage a desperate war against the personified Concepts of Peace, Stagnation, Boredom, and Banality, the Four Horsemen of the Brikpocalypse.
On reflection, I'd have to say your Horsemen seem like the Four Horsemen of the Brikpocalypse from a Human perspective, whereas mine seem like the Four Horsemen from a Minifig perspective. Though mine could use a little work. Let's keep both!

We can then keep all three. The Human Based Four Horsemen are attempting to bring down the the universe in a Brikpocalypse of Shitty Proportions. The Minifig Based Four Horsemen are attempting to bring down the universe in a Brikpocalypse (a name they probably got handed to them by their Human overlords) of Peaceful Proportions. While the Four Bikers are attempting to stop them all and bring about their own end (a.k.a. Going out in a Blaze of Glory, the only way the BrikVerse Should end) in a Ragnablok (because Norse based apocalypse is cooler than a Classical one).

Sure; if anything should have three apocalypses (apocalypsi?), it's the brikverse.

It's going to be fun to mess around with these guys, I still need to get some stuff before doing so though.

You get it done, sir!


I'm getting an itch to pick up my death bikes again also.

I think in the BrikVerse, the minifig-style Horsemen are the agents of evil out to destroy everything good in the universe, and the Human-styled Horseman (numbered I through IV) are actually the forces of good who exist to keep the party going.

Minifigs build shrine to give thanks and high-fives to their benevolent Horseman buddies War, Famine, Pestilence, and Death for keeping the Apocalypse constantly erupting throughout the BrikVerse and working ceaselessly to preserve its awesomeness in the face of the creeping influence of Peace, Stability, Complacency, and Tedium.

If we were using existing characters, it'd be Peacenik, the Pwny rider of Peace; Nega-BlokTrix, the POOP-Dragon rider of Shitty Quality... who else?
