Characters

Voigt's animations are known for their many recurring characters. Older comics and animations notably featured the Mongoose Man, a scantily-dressed superhero with the powers of a mongoose, and Todd, a news anchor with a penchant for sexually harassing his female co-anchors as well as for wearing women's underwear. More recent projects have notably featured Fernando the Manwhore; Gooseman, who often acts as a sort of straight man; and Randy, an unpassable transgender woman. Other recurring characters include Raptor Jesus, a washed-up version of of the superhero Captain Planet, and an animated version of Voigt himself.

Fernando

Fernando the Manwhore is arguably Voigt's most popular character, who appears as a flirtatious man with various interests, most notably sex and yogurt. He is often seen carrying a spear or riding a goat. Although Fernando appeared as early as 2005 in Great Weed Drought of '03, his popularity rose following Dance of the Manwhore and the later videos from the same series.
