Ragnarok was a member of the anti-Cobra religious terrorist group known as the Council and was involved in the infamous Vermont Street Battle, after which he joined the GI Joe team through the underground.

The Vermont Street Battle was a bloody ordeal which lasted three days and resulted in the death of every Council soldier, save for a sparse few, 430 Cobra soldiers, and 622 civilians. The battle began as an operation of the Council (which numbered nearly 300) to ambush a party of Cobra officers, passing through Fyoran Avenue. Several Councilmen altered the course of an APC carrying the high Cobra officials onto Vermont Street, where other terrorists were waiting. The APC was easily destroyed, but the street was immediately blockaded and a firefight quickly ensued. More and more reinforcements came for both sides and a battle raged for three days, destroying the urban neighborhood and causing extreme damage to the Cobra army stationed in the city. The Councilmen reinforcements were able to enter the street through the sewage pipeline system, where they also were able to plant remote detonated mines should the Cobra soldiers defeat them. Eventually, after Councilmen numbers dropped to less than 20, and Cobra Corps Stormtroopers were flowing through the streets, a Councilman detonated the mines, resulting in a tremendous number of casualties. Few survived the explosion; Ragnarok did.

Ragnarok joined the GI Joe team through the underground. He has immediately been recognized as a fierce soldier born to be a warrior, despite his eerie calm in all situations. He still wears the robes of a Councilman officer, as a reminder to all that he has been warring Cobra his entire life.
