**Iggy Stiles** is one of the major protagonists of the Nightriders series. He is the bass player of the titular band of the same name. Him along with Brutus Crocker both make their debut appearance in The Battle Continues and would go on to become mainstay characters for the series as additions to being part of the primary cast.

## Personality

Iggy Stiles is an iguana and is the jokester of the band, who likes to pull pranks on others. But he also has a reputation for getting into a lot of trouble, thanks to his big mouth and clumsy actions that lead to outrageous consequences. Because of all the messed up situations that he kept getting into, An ex-professional wrestler crocodile Brutus Crocker (who would also later become manager and security personal of the Nightriders band) had to be hired to become his full-time bodyguard. They have created a strong brother-like relation over the years that they knew one another for.

Despite his reputation, he's always willing to be optimistic and wanting to find solutions to everything, as well as having quite of an enthusiasm with his pranks that he pulls off. Whenever to his friends or foes, he's always the iguana willing to shake things up.

## Information

For the longest time, Iggy Stiles was a bassist for the mainstream heavy metal band, Two Eyed Cyclopes. But later on, they betrayed Iggy and sold him to the Falsettos. An evil musical cult group. But in due time, he would later escape.

Axl Reigns met him and Brutus in the Forbidden Island during Nightriders: The Battle Continues.

## Trivia

* Iggy's Birthday is April 1st on April Fools Day. This was intended as by the creator, as given by Iggy's personality.
* With Iggy Stiles' birthday being April 1, he is born as an Aries as his star sign. With that, he is always willing to show enthusiasm and optimism as two of the strength traits followed. But the weakness he shows is that, he's willing to be impulsive, especially if his pranks come off bringing in some of the worst case scenarios. Despite that Aries makes a good relation compatibility with Libra which is Rolf's star sign, they often don't get along well. And with Brutus being super angry at him twice in the series, it can possibly reflect on how Aries and Virgo which is the star sign for Brutus' birthday, often show the worst type of relation. But that can be made up by the fact that their communication is straight forward and linear, as followed by the traits of Brutus' star sign.
* The star sign towards Iggy's birthday is ruled by Planet Mars. Mars is also the ancient ruling planet to Axl Reigns as his star sign is a Scorpio. But however, the modern ruling body is Pluto for the latter.
* Iggy's first name may have been taken from American singer, songwriter, musician, and record producer, *Iggy Pop.*
* Some of Iggy's antics prior to him and Brutus being introduced in Nightriders: The Battle Continues have included the following:
	+ Exposing rigged machines of a casino by putting super glue in the shoes of a mobster
	+ Iggy's pet spiders destroying Mr. Panda's hotel by having them run through the building.
	+ Giving ‘flatulence candy’ to the dictator of Bearvannia.
* His enemies prior to the very same story include:
	+ The employees from the Panda Hotel,
	+ His cousin,
	+ The Prime Minister of the Cougar Republic.
* It is possible that Iggy and Brutus have been stuck on Forbidden Island for more than six months. The Falsettos have been an underground organization that only made an appearance in Nightriders: Battle of the Bands, so there's no telling how long they've been in the shadows, forcing bands into their cult.
