The Beast of Joy
The Mythology of Soulclaw
The peace manticore & guardian of
Soul Rock ‘n’ Roll
- a Wagner the Band Universe
1. ORIGIN — THE BIRTH OF A PEACEFUL REBEL
Long before arenas filled with roaring crowds and guitar amps hummed with warm analog electricity, the world was divided into two realms:
The Realm of Noise — ruled by chaos, conflict, and hollow sound.
The Realm of Groove — alive with soul, rhythm, and truth.
At the border of these realms, where thunder met melody, a mythical creature emerged:
SOULCLAW — The Peace Manticore.
Born with:
the heart of a lion,
the wings of a guardian spirit,
and the soulfire of ancient music burning in his chest.
He came into existence not from violence, but from a single pure moment —
a harmony so powerful it split the darkness and gave him form.
This harmony later became known as the First Groove.
2. THE FALL & THE REVELATION
In the early ages, Soulclaw was feared.
Manticores were known as creatures of fury, built for battle.
And in the beginning, he lived as one —
a beast of instinct, claws sharpened, wings ready for war.
But one night, as he wandered through the shattered borderlands, he heard something that froze him in place:
A bassline so deep,
a guitar so raw,
a voice so human,
that it reached the part of him that had never known softness.
The sound wasn’t perfect.
It wasn’t polished.
It was real.
It awakened him.
Soulclaw fell to his knees, dropped his weapons, and vowed:
“From this day forward, I roar not to destroy—
but to awaken.”
At sunrise, he carried a new symbol:
Not a sword.
But a flag of peace.
This marked the beginning of the Era of Groove.
3. THE VOW OF SOULFIRE
Standing between both realms, Soulclaw became something new:
A warrior who refuses war.
A beast who chooses peace.
A guardian who leads with music.
He forged a sacred promise —
a vow burned into his soulfire:
THE SOULFIRE VOW
Fight only with groove.
Roar only for truth.
Protect the weak, the creative, the brave.
Never let music become hollow or soulless.
Stand for peace — but never stand down.
This vow shaped everything to come.
4. THE RISE OF THE SOULCLAWRI — HIS FOLLOWERS
When Soulclaw raised his peace flag high, something extraordinary happened:
Artists, dreamers, misfits, rebels, lovers of raw music —
they all felt the call.
They gathered around him, united not by age, tribe, nation, or genre,
but by one simple truth:
Music means nothing without soul.
This community became known as:
THE SOULCLAW NATION
Their three sacred virtues:
Stay Loud. Speak your truth.
Stay Kind. Power without cruelty.
Stay Real. No bullshit. No shortcuts.
5. THE SYMBOL — THE CREST OF THE PEACE MANTICORE

The symbol is more than a logo —
it’s an oath.
To wear it is to say:
“I choose peace, but I bring the roar.”
6. SOULCLAW & WAGNER THE BAND
In the modern age, Soulclaw reemerged when he sensed a sound that carried the old magic:
Warm, analog, soulful, rebellious —
the unmistakable essence of Soul Rock ’n’ Roll.
He followed the music to a small Austrian studio, where he found:
Wagner the Band
—a group creating music the ancient way:
with truth, fire, imperfections, and heart.
Recognizing the same energy that once awakened him,
Soulclaw chose to stand with them.
He became:
Their protector
Their symbol
Their messenger
And the guardian of their fans
From this moment forward, he walks with the band into every venue, every release, every stage, every fight.
7. THE MISSION — WHY SOULCLAW EXISTS TODAY
In a world of digital noise, algorithms, fake perfection, and disposable art,
Soulclaw stands as a reminder:
Real music still matters.
Real humans still matter.
Peace is not weakness.
Soul is not outdated.
His mission is simple:
“Protect the soul of music.”
“Guide the tribe toward peace.”
“Never let the groove die.”
8. THE PROPHECY — WHAT COMES NEXT
Ancient texts say that Soulclaw appears in times when:
Music is losing its heart
People lose connection
Voices go unheard
Truth is replaced by noise
Artists are pushed aside by machines
Peace is treated as weakness
Strength is misunderstood
He rises to realign the world through rhythm.
And so the prophecy concludes:
“When the world forgets what soul feels like,
The Peace Manticore will roar again.”
Soulclaw has returned.
His wings are open.
His flame is burning.
And the tribe is growing.
The next chapter is yours.
