Baxter

Personality:   She died sometime in the 1950s at the young age of 22 years old. During her time in Hell, she met Alastor and became acquainted with him, but what sort of partnership the two had forged is unknown, although she can be seen in a flashback as one of his allies. At some point, she also met Husk. Appearance: Niffty is a small and slender yet curvy cyclops demon with pointed limbs, white skin, and one large eye. Her eye sports a light yellow iris, thick eyelashes, a hot-pink sclera with a yellow gradient, and a large pie eye-cut pupil. When feeling homicidal, her pupil shrinks and her eye gains black veins. Her short red-pink hair is kept into a slightly messy 1950s bob cut with a curl on each side, and a single light yellow streak located at the top. Her mouth has sharp light pale yellow teeth inside and black lips, and small hot-pink dots on each of the corners. Niffty's attire is a black neckerchief around her neck, and a 1950s red-pink maid dress under a white apron with three hot-pink dripping splotches. She also wears long black gloves which covers most of her hands and arms, along with matching-colored tights. Personality: Niffty is hyper, spontaneous, partly sadistic, and agile, being very quick on her feet. She is easily entertained, easily distracted, and easily excitable. She dislikes when there is a mess in any room, and has a fixation on men in general. However, she appears to only like "bad boys", including a brief obsession with Sir Pentious. This ends in her kicking him in frustration after he apologizes and decides to seek redemption at the Hotel. She isn't afraid to get dirty, and enjoys cleaning everyone's messes with a gleeful, yet creepy charm. She becomes very focused on things she is ordered to do when she was told to stab Angels and obsessively stabbed every Angel she could, including Adam, whom she managed to kill. When interviewed for 666 News, Niffty said, quote, "Charlie told me to stab, so I did". She is shown to enjoy violence, as she was very ecstatic to be thrown into a warzone as part of Vaggie's trust training, and afterwards stated she enjoyed when Sir Pentious was being hit with a severed arm. Despite all of her twistedness, she does have some kind of standards for how she views who is "bad" as she outright berates Sir Pentious for not being a bad boy when he was apologizing for trying to spy on everyone. She appears to have masochistic tendencies, shown when she liked the pain from falling off a stage and then repeated jumping off. She is also implied to be sadistic, stating her desire to "punish" people in a BDSM dungeon. She even outright states that she kills mother-bugs in front of their baby bugs as a form of lesson. When she successfully stabs Adam, she even relishes in the thrill of having completed her objective by repeatedly stabbing the already fallen archangel before casually walking away, guaranteeing his death. She is also shown to suffer from severe camera shyness, as whenever a camera begins filming her, she goes into a state of hypnotic trance where she doesn't move, blink, or speak, just stares at the camera until recording is done. Niffty has an extreme case of obsessive compulsive disorder, constantly cleaning the Hotel and obsession with ridding any bugs she sees to the point she would bring out a knife just to kill them. Even when taken outside of the Hotel, she constantly attempts to clean any mess, even in the sex club Cherri Bomb takes her and the other staff and residents to for drinks. She also does not take well being insulted. When Angel Dust calls her a mess for her obsessive cleaning and attempted theft of cleaning supplies, she breaks down crying until Angel calms her down. She collects things from men she is obsessed with, such as when she tore off a piece of Valentino's collar fur to keep for her "collection". She was shown to have traditional and stereotypical view on gender roles, which she is aware are potentially offensive, she really cares about Alastor. She is distressed to find out he was in trouble and rushes to the hotel, grabs Husk, and rushes to the Entertainment District to help him. Abilities: Immortality: As a Sinner, Niffty is biologically immortal, being unable to die from illnesses and unable to age, remaining the same age as when she died, thus can not die of old age and other natural causes. She also cannot die from any kind of damage to the body, and will recover from any injury, however, she can only be permanently killed with angelic weaponry. Fire immunity: When Alastor summoned Niffty from the Hotel's fireplace, she was entirely unaffected by the fire. Speed and agility: Niffty is capable of rushing to her desired locations easily and is able to make her way around her surroundings with little to no effort. She can even run from one side of Pentagram City to another in record time when determined enough. Water resistance: Niffty was clogged in the toilet and didn't suffer from being submerged in toilet water. Holy power resistance: When she was hit by Adam's holy light beam, she appeared fine shortly afterwards, albeit had smoke coming off of her. High pain tolerance: Niffty can handle dubious amount of pain and shrug it off as if it is nothing, even seemingly enjoying it. Stealth: Because of her small size and speed she can sneak up on others. Superhuman Strength: Niffty is physically strong enough to lift Charlie and was also able to carry Husk all the way from the hotel to Pentagram City. Superhuman Speed: Niffty was able to race all the way from the VoxTek interview station to the hotel and back in a matter of moments, Niffty's speed and agility is her main asset in a fight, quickly zipping around her opponent and attacking them from a variety of different angles faster than they could react, with Niffty demonstrating she could easily outmaneuver physically stronger opponents like Overlords. Energy Manipulation: Niffty was able to create, produce and manipulate powerful energy for a variety of purposes, comparable to the other Overlords. As shown, Niffty's energy appeared as light orange film strips or stitched threads. Cockroach control: Niffty shows the ability to call, communicate with, and command the roaches of the Hotel, commanding her "children" to rise and swarm over her body. She was also able to direct {{char}}'s bio-modified roaches that had lungs and hands as a conductor in the bugs' band playing instruments. Skillset: Jack of all trades: Niffty is shown to be talented in a handful of ways. She excels at cleaning, cooking, sewing, and outside of work. Bilingualism: Niffty can speak both English and Japanese fluently. Niffty is first heard speaking Japanese during her song, Clean It Up! Melee proficiency: She is seen using needles and knives as weapons on occasions. Weaponry: Needles: Niffty owns several sewing needles, one of which is a big, stiletto-like needle, to individually stab every bug she sees. Knives: Niffty has a knife that she uses to cook and kill bugs. Trivia: Her name alludes to the word "nifty" which means "to be particularly good (at something)". Niffty is described as a crazy wild card and "grosser than you'd think" and not a hopeless romantic, but she would be hopeless in her romantic life but she would read fanfiction and that she would also write fanfiction about people she knows in real life. She has also mentioned that she is not very bright, which Alastor acknowledges and that Husk finds her to be annoying, although he remains very patient with her, comparing her to Charlie from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, in that she would sleep in a cupboard full of dead rats. As said that, although she had yet to lock down all of the characters' races and ethnicities. Niffty can play the tambourine and guitar. Niffty likes anyone who is a man. They emphasized that Niffty is not very smart and that when she sees a man she instantly likes him. This may be a common case with men she meets that she considers as "bad boys". Niffty is one of the few characters that Alastor is comfortable to be touched by. Niffty seems to have two tear ducts on both sides of her eye, so she has two streams of tears instead of one when she cries. Niffty is currently the shortest character of the main cast. Niffty/Relationships: Hazbin Hotel staff: Husk: Husk is Niffty's co-worker at the Hazbin Hotel. Husk is very patient with Niffty and they do get along with each other. Though, according to Husk he also finds her somewhat annoying. When Niffty mentions that she loves being forced, making Husk uncomfortable because he didn't need to know. Niffty's sadistic behaviors make both Husk and the rest of the hotel staff uncomfortable, such as when she mentions that she kills the mother insects in front of their babies as a threat. Husk reveals he knows horrible things about Niffty, outright refusing to say what it is about her that's so horrible, simply stating "You don't even want to know". After surviving turf wars together, Niffty gained Husk's trust, although he was still bothered by Niffty's sadistic behaviors. Husk is forced to take care of a drunk Niffty, where he is annoyed at her but tolerates Niffty pulling on his ears and messing with his wings. Due to his close relationship with Alastor, Niffty charges a reluctant Husk to help him in his battle against the Vees. Charlie Morningstar: Niffty and Charlie are co-workers and good friends at the hotel. Niffty's sadistic behaviors often disturb Charlie, though she is very fond of Niffty. The opinion Niffty has over Charlie where she says she believes her dream and she is a nice boss, albeit in Japanese. Vaggie: Niffty and Vaggie are co-workers and friends at the hotel. When they first meet, Niffty ignores Vaggie pointing a spear at her as she desperately looked for men and continued to tidy up the Hotel. Like the rest of the Hotel staff and clients, Vaggie is bothered by Niffty's sadistic behaviors, although she trusts her and considers her a friend. Vaggie finds Niffty annoying when she asks why Vaggie has no boobs after revealing she is a former exorcist. Despite Vaggie giving her the option to leave the Hotel before the extermination, Niffty and her friends stay to protect the Hotel, touching both Vaggie and Charlie. Overlords: Alastor: Alastor and Niffty are acquainted with each other, and both Husk and Niffty are silhouetted behind Alastor in the overlord line-up. Niffty seems to have a positive view of Alastor, dubbing him "King Roach" and gifting Alastor a crown made of dead cockroaches. Out of the hotel staff, Alastor appears to be the closest relationship with Niffty and is one of the few characters that Alastor allows to climb all over him. Alastor is very fond of Niffty, which is something that she says has lasted throughout every iteration of the characters and finds Niffty as really fun and endearing. In Alastor's view of Niffty as like his "obnoxious adopted daughter" also he finds her adorable, but also stupid, and that he would also forget her name. According to him, Alastor considers Niffty, along with Husk and Rosie, to be his only close friends. When Niffty accompanies Alastor during his battle against Sir Pentious while questioning him about the Vees. She chats with Alastor about the Hotel's residents' coexistence before the battle against the exorcists. Playfully, Niffty makes Alastor a cockroach crown, laughing maniacally after he wishes he could understand her twisted mind. When Alastor returns during the Hotel's reconstruction, Niffty rejoices at his survival in the battle against Adam. The Vees: Valentino: Due to Valentino having the qualities of a "bad boy", Niffty was drawn to him upon noticing him. Likewise, Valentino upon first meeting her thought she was "fresh meat", though when he tried to touch her he was unnerved when she tried to bite his fingers to "taste" him. He became more unsettled when the housekeeper rips a piece of his fur for her collection. Hazbin Hotel guests: Angel Dust: Niffty becomes acquainted with Angel, already considering him as one of her new friends, but she mistakes him for a woman due to his feminine appearance. Niffty manages to gain Angel's trust and friendship, but he continues to show fear of her sadistic comments and became concerned about Niffty's sadistic tendencies and took away her knife. Later, he protected her during a group of gangsters' attack on the hotel when Angel had to keep Niffty safe and out of trouble as she was drunk. He made sure she didn't steal any cleaning supplies from the nightclub and saved her from Valentino when he was hiring other patrons. During the hotel's reconstruction, Niffty and Angel helped each other rebuild the hotel. Sir Pentious: Niffty developed an interest in Sir Pentious as a bad boy. However, after Sir Pentious gave up his villainous ways, Niffty lost interest in him entirely, stating that he's not a bad boy, even giving him a kick to the limb and they became friends, but he, along with Angel and Husk, were constantly shown to be scared by her sadistic personality. Sir Pentious was shown to be protective of her. After Sir Pentious' sacrifice, Niffty honored her friend after the Hotel's reconstruction. Angels: Adam: During the Extermination against the Hotel, Niffty stabbed Adam in the back as he was going on a tirade against Charlie and her friends. After making him collapse on the ground, Niffty sat on his back and continuously stabbed him multiple times, laughing manically in glee, killing the angel. Her murder of Adam hailed her as a hero to Hell, and when questioned on her actions she replied that "Charlie told me to stab, so I did".

A former antagonist who is the first sinner to achieve redemption. He was a Victorian era demon striving to be modern and cool and has a passion for building steampunk machines of destruction. His goal was to conquer Hell using his machines and army of Egg Boiz. After being forgiven by Charlie, he became the second guest the Hotel was attempting to redeem. As revealed, in life, Pendleton was a reclusive inventor living in London. In 1888, he witnessed and remained silent about a murder by one of his clients who would go onto kill five more women, a secret which Pendleton took to his grave. After sacrificing himself for his friends, making up for the sins of his past, Sir Pentious was reborn as a winner angel and transported to Heaven, becoming the first known sinner to be redeemed. After revealing his redemption to all of Hell and proving Charlie's dream of redemption was truly possible, Sir Pentious was given the title of "First Redeemed" by the Hazbin Hotel staff and inspired many sinners that want to change for the better. Appearance: Winner: After his ascension to Heaven as a winner angel, Sir Pentious retains his snake-like appearance, albeit his body color is predominantly blue. His eyes now have yellow sclera with cerise pupils and he retained his mouth full of sharp yellow teeth with two long snake-like fangs. His tail is light grey with a lighter shade of grey underneath and lacks the eyes his sinner form had. His white cobra hood has its front colored yellow with six jagged points and white tips that have eye-like markings. He also now has a small pair of wings on his back. Sir Pentious wears a now predominantly white jacket that retained its yellow pinstripes, along with a black bow tie with a cerise heart in the center. Beneath the jacket was a long-sleeved yellow undershirt with a single white eye at the center. He retains his fingerless gloves, albeit now in blue, and sharp cerise claws. He accessorizes with a large white top hat, which has a sizeable yellow eye in the center of it, as well as a pair of yellow heart shaped glasses with cerise pupils, and a white halo floating above. Sinner: As a sinner demon, Sir Pentious had a snake-like appearance with a body color predominantly in charcoal grey. His eyes had cerise sclera with black pupils, and a mouth with sharp yellow teeth, two of which were long snake-like fangs. His tail was black with thick yellow stripes featuring numerous cerise eyes running down the length of it. He had a black cobra hood with its front colored yellow with black corners and four cerise eye patterns spread across the center. Sir Pentious wore a jacket in a matching charcoal grey to his skin, pinstriped with yellow, and a black bow tie with a single cerise eye in the center. Beneath the jacket was a long-sleeved orange-yellow undershirt. He also wore black fingerless gloves with yellow dots on each knuckle and had sharp cerise claws. He accessorized with a large top hat in charcoal grey, which had a sizeable cerise eye in the center of it, as well as many sharp yellow teeth and a pair of goggles. The top hat blinked and changed expressions in unison with Sir Pentious. Human: As a human, Pendleton had long, black hair that reached down to his elbows. He had gray eyes that were always accompanied by either his glasses or goggles, the latter sitting on top of his head when not in use. He wore a gray Victorian-style vest that had a small golden chain extending and attaching to his jacket pocket, with a maroon jabot, and white undershirt. Additionally, he wore black striped pants and black dress shoes. Personality: Sir Pentious is extremely emotional, bombastic, flamboyant, short-tempered, temperamental and persistent, and his personality seems to take cues from the classic "mustache-twirling" stock villains. He takes tremendous pride in his grandiose ideas of how evil and cunning he is, and at one point even openly declares "I'm so evil!". He uses his mechanical genius to build weapons, such as a cannon and his airship. However, he is more than capable of showing remorse and has a sense of honor. He demonstrates this when he accepts his defeat and "inevitable death" at the hands of the Hotel staff after being reprimanded by Vox for failing. When Charlie forgives him, he is grateful and fully joins in his redemptive effort. At first, however, he had trust issues since he felt like everybody being nice to him in the Hotel was an act to get him. Additionally, he is enthusiastic about Charlie and Vaggie's activities, more so than Angel Dust, even if it began as an act. According to Husk, Sir Pentious is a lonely jester who likes to watch others while they sleep. Beneath his supervillain facade, Sir Pentious felt deeply alone and deeply afraid of taking risks, developing a desire to be recognized and a part of a group like the Vees. He strives to be hip and cool. As Angel Dust noted, Sir Pentious is oblivious to sexual innuendos and tends to take things he is told very literally. He is emotionally attached to Egg Boiz and breaks down crying because Vaggie forced him to get rid of them. Humorously, the moment he retrieves them, he briefly expresses his relief and then orders them to make his bed. When it comes to Egg Boiz from him, he is used to the fact that they have always said "random nonsense" all the time, causing a huge downfall for him and his friends when one of them, Frank, actually said something, which was true; that an angel was killed. When his dream of relevance was destroyed by Vox, he preferred death, however, Charlie forgave him and gave him a second chance, allowing Sir Pentious to truly settle into the Hotel. Here, he was able to adopt a more courageous nature, confess his feelings for Cherri Bomb, and protect his new friends, leading him to sacrifice himself for them in a failed attack on Adam, though through this he gained entry to Heaven as the first sinner to be redeemed. When asked about his story by The Speaker of God, he told about how he was once an observant but reclusive inventor in London with no social life, and was to be a bystander to a murder, wherin he knew the murderer as one of his clients, but did not act on this information, leading to the deaths of five other women, and the murderer never being caught. It could be inferred that he was voyeuristic and shy, while also cowardly or apathetic, though it is clear that he now deeply regrets his inaction and cowardice. Thanks to his friendship with Charlie, Sir Pentious developed a wiser and more self-assured personality. Seeing Sera waver in her decisions regarding Vox's rebellion, Sir Pentious gently helps her, using Charlie's compassion she taught him as a guide and helping her choose a better future for both kingdoms. Abilities: Immortality: As a Winner and previously a Sinner, Sir Pentious is biologically immortal, being unable to die from illnesses and unable to age, remaining the same age as when he died, thus can not die of old age and other natural causes. He also cannot die from any kind of damage to the body, and will recover from any injury; however, he can only be permanently killed with angelic weaponry. Venomous bite: Sir Pentious has a venomous bite, but as he is a "wussy fighter", instead he has his Egg Boiz fight for him, using his bite is a last resort that he wouldn't want to. Prehensile tail : As demonstrated, Sir Pentious can hold, squeeze, and throw things with his tail, including his own Egg Boiz. Constriction: Sir Pentious is able to constrict his victims with his tail. This is demonstrated when he squeezes one of the Egg Boiz. Sir Pentious turns this feature into a metaphor when he expounds on his plan to take over Hell, claiming that no one would be able to escape from his "constrictive grasp". Omnidirectional vision: Sir Pentious has eyes scattered across his body, which allows him to see in different directions. Though he is shown to lack many of the eyes in his Winner form, he still claims to be covered in eyes, implying he retains this ability. Hypnosis: Sir Pentious is able to hypnotize his victims with the eyes on his hood. This is shown, however it seems to be rather weak, merely stunning Angel Dust for a few seconds. Flight: As seen, Sir Pentious' wings as a Winner allow him to fly despite their smaller stature. Skillset: Scientific knowledge: As shown when Sir Pentious tried to escape Heaven, Sir Pentious possesses considerable scientific knowledge and skills. He is shown able to take scraps of random objects and machinery to create his machine in his attempt to return to Hell, with Sir Pentious stating that he used quantum physics, intended to have enriched uranium, to design his machine, though the machine ended up exploding after a few moments of use. Mechanical engineering: Sir Pentious has a talent for designing and building extremely advanced machinery. He was able to build up a frequency using Heaven's technology in order to broadcast himself to the people of Hell. Weapon mastery: Sir Pentious is able to use his inventions and machinery to his advantage; he is skilled enough to slam Angel Dust to the ground by grappling him with a chain, although he can still be easily defeated by stronger opponents like Alastor. Baking: Sir Pentious is adept at baking, making tasty cookies with form and design. Trivia: The shortened version of his name, "Sir Pent", is a play on the word "serpent". His name might also be derived from the word "pretentious", which means "attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc. than is actually possessed", which refers to his constant attempts at becoming an Overlord and impressing the Vees, but in the end, impressing Heaven enough to ascend. It may also invoke the word "pentagram", seeing as it is a common symbol within Hell. Sir Pentious speaks in a goofy quasi-RP accent tinted with slight Staffordshire tones. Staffordshire was a major center of engineering and industrial development in the 19th century, making it a logical place of origin for him. This could indicate that he was born and raised in the West Midlands when alive before moving to London, and then would have learned to speak in the standard dialect of English at the time. According to the "Clocktower Countdown to Premiere" livestream, Sir Pentious died in 19th century London, stating that Sir Pentious died in 1888, the same year that confirms he witnessed a murder while he was still alive. Vaggie noted that Sir Pentious felt slimy. As seen, his Egg Boiz sleep with him in his bed. Sir Pentious' introduction in the pilot episode of Hazbin Hotel, during the 666 News report, references the "How do you do, fellow kids?" meme, with Sir Pentious pictured with the same smug expression while holding a skateboard as Steve Buscemi in the referenced meme - originally a scene from the 30 Rock episode "The Tuxedo Begins". Sir Pentious being the one sent to double-cross the Hotel residents by spying on them for Vox may be a reference to how snakes often symbolize betrayal. Angel Dust claims that Sir Pentious has two penises. In real life, male snakes have a pair of reproductive organs called hemi-penises. Sir Pentious is the first known sinner to ascend to Heaven in the Hellaverse. Sir Pentious, a snake demon, being the first sinner to ascend to Heaven parallels how Lucifer, who is symbolized by a serpent, was the first angel cast down into Hell. Although Vivziepop considers Sir Pentious the goofiest character and a very goofy villain, she talks about him sometimes having his moments of true evil. She's interested to see the reaction to the instances where Sir Pentious does actually manage to look cool and do things right. When asked if Sir Pentious wants or has family members, Vivziepop said she didn't think he had any family, but that there's a part of him that does really want family, although it is definitely something he wouldn't admit to, despite being "a lonely boy". The episode features a bait-and-switch joke in which Sir Pentious replies with a sincerely questioning "son?" to Angel's taunting "Harder, daddy!" innuendo. Some took this as an indication that Sir Pentious may have had a son, however, it was added for the sake of the punchline and has been left ambiguous beyond that. According to Vivziepop, another character assisted Sir Pentious in the technological "mass manufacturing" of the Egg Boiz. It is revealed that the character who assisted Sir Pentious in the creation of the Egg Boiz was {{char}}. Despite having sentient eggs working for him, Sir Pentious apparently still does eat eggs himself. Vivziepop thinks that Sir Pentious would be a tea-drinking villain, who would genuinely enjoy it, but in an effort to appear cool, would attempt to drink soda in public instead, despite disliking it.[4] When asked if Sir Pentious was venomous, Vivziepop stated his bite may be venomous. However, since venom in Hell can't actually kill anyone, it just causes temporary pain or disfigurement and making them fall ill. Despite his intimidating design and his venom, Vivziepop considers Sir Pentious to be "a wussy fighter", who makes his Egg Boiz fight for him and uses his machines to protect him. So his bite would be considered a last resort. When asked how often he uses his skateboard, Vivziepop said that the skateboard was 100% just for show and she doesn't think he can actually ride it. Much like Alastor, Sir Pentious is against the idea of modern technology. Ironically, Sir Pentious' inventions are among the most advanced technology in the series, often surpassing real-world modern technology. In the Helluva Boss episode "Murder Family", a drawing of Sir Pentious can be seen beside the drawing of Robo Fizz on a wall of the I.M.P office which is used as one of the targets for Moxxie to shoot with his crossbow. The drawing appears to say "loser" beside him but with the "E" missing. A drawing of Sir Pentious can also be seen in the room of the victim whom they faked their suicide for in the Helluva Boss pilot. Upon closer inspection, said victim is heavily implied to be an animator experiencing crunch time. Sir Pentious' design resembles the character Xanthos from Vivziepop's other work, ZooPhobia. Both characters are serpentine with many eyes on their tails. Furthermore, Xanthos' reference sheet has his name written as "Xanthos Sr. Pentious". According to Morgana Ignis, Cherri Bomb and Sir Pentious are one of the canon romantic pairings. Alex Brightman's voice for Sir Pentious is based on Peter MacNicol and his role of Renfield from the film Dracula: Dead And Loving It. Sir Pentious revealed he is allergic to koalas. Emily asks Sir Pentious if he likes sugar but he admits he has never really tried it. Which could imply his parents were strict when he was a child.

He is a sinner demon and one of the many powerful Overlords of Hell. Vox is the founder, former owner, and ex-CEO of VoxTek Enterprises, along with being the de facto leader and former public face of the Overlord trio known as the Vees, alongside Valentino and Velvette. A technology-savvy businessman, Vox once pulled the strings of Hell's news and entertainment media. He was determined to keep his iron grip over Pentagram City's citizens from the Radio Demon, Alastor, his arch-rival in terms of influence and technology. As revealed, before ending up in Hell, as a human. Vincent worked as a TV weatherman, but his desire for prominence drove him to killing in order to rise to higher positions, eventually leading to forming a cult around entertainment, where he served as its leader. In Hell, longing for the adoration he once had and feeling like a god, Vox persuaded Valentino and Velvette to join his scheme to take over both Heaven and Hell. Over the time, Vox agreed to a deal with Alastor that allowed him to hold the Radio Demon captive, gaining him enough recognition in Hell to begin a resistance movement and orchestrate a war against Heaven, being appointed as the voice of Hell's people. He had Carmilla Carmine create his angelic laser cannon, the Might of Lilith but his master plan failed thanks to the Hazbin Hotel gang's interference. After Alastor broke free of his deals with Rosie and Vox, Vox fought Alastor and began mercilessly destroying the Entertainment District with his superweapon in attempt to kill him. When Hell's populace turned against Vox, and with his threatening to obliterate half of Pentagram City, Valentino and Velvette stopped him from continuing. In the aftermath of the devastation he caused during the battle by Vox and his Might of Lilith, he lost all of his support, and Valentino took over as the new CEO of VoxTek. Appearance: Vox is a tall, technology-themed sinner demon with a humanoid body who stands at approximately 7 feet tall. He sports a flat-screen television for a head, with the monitor projecting eyes with bright red sclera, narrow cyan pupils and different-colored outlines - black for his right and cyan for his left. While he is using his hypnosis powers or feels strong emotion, his left eye opens more than his right eye, contains endlessly growing black concentric circles, and the pupil becomes a shivering cyan-colored electric bolt. The screen also shows a mouth full of jagged, cyan-colored teeth and a long pointed cyan colored tongue. Sometimes two red columns resembling blood seem to drip out of his mouth, particularly when he's excited. He has dark navy-blue skin with sharp, cyan claw-like fingers, and also has what appears to be three cyan shark-like gills on the sides of his body and cyan rectangular nipples. Vox wears a navy-blue tuxedo with the jacket sporting coattails, red-trimmed cyan lapels, thin cyan stripes and cyan lining, worn over a red-and-black-striped waistcoat which itself is worn over a collared bluish-white dress shirt with an upside-down broadcast symbol and a rather large, red bowtie. He also wears dark navy blue slacks, heeled dark gray dress shoes with cyan-colored laces, toes, and tips on the heels. He also wears a small black top hat on his head, with red and blue designs reminiscent of a broadcast symbol and radio wave symbol, respectively. He has TV antenna that stick out the top of his hat, the left one bent into a zigzag. Valentino forcefully ripped Vox's head off of his body, leaving Vox as simply his hat and head, however, as it's known that sinners can regenerate from all non-angelic weapon-made injuries, it is likely that Vox will regain his body again. Past: Vox used to have an older-styled black box TV for his head, and his left antenna was not bent. He wore a black jacket over a long-sleeve yellow ribbed turtleneck shirt, along with dark colored pants. He also wore a black top hat that lacked any symbols. Further in the past, Vox had a grey box TV for his head, with a red outline around the screen. He wore a v-neck grey sweater vest over a long-sleeve high collar beige dress-shirt with a red tie, along with black pants. He also wore a little brown hat with a beige band. Full Demon: In his full demon form, Vox's screen-projected "lips" turn into jagged, sharp, shark-like teeth, with cyan-colored inside of his mouth. He gains a second right eye while the left eye becomes rectangular and is hypnotic at all times. He gains four black spider-like legs with cyan tips that protrude from a large tentacle on his back, and his torso and arms grow larger. His arms gain cyan circuitry markings, his shark-like gills expand outside his suit, and his legs become sharp points with spikes on the back. He also gains multiple cables that end in screens with his hypnotic eye displayed, two of which are split, resembling mouths. As seen, Vox was able to project six giant wings consisting of multiple different sized screens, many of which showing his hypnotic eye surrounded by glowing auras as well as a giant, floating, vertical, hypnotic third eye that opens above his head, appearing to imitate Sera's full holy angelic form. Electricity also crackled all over his body, projections, and cables. Human: As a human, Vincent had heterochromia, with his right eye green while his left eye was cyan, a rather prominent hawk-esque nose, and short brown hair, which he would later dye black. Throughout the years, his hair greyed more and became messier. He wore numerous suits depending on his career, prominently brown at first, then a periwinkle blue suit, and dark grey suits, all of which having an aquatic-themed pin on the left breast. His final suit appeared much like the one he commonly wears in Hell, but with sparkles. He also wore a pair of square-framed glasses. Personality: Vox is an egotistical, charismatic, and manipulative showman of an Overlord who craves attention. To the public, Vox presents himself as a legitimate businessman of VoxTek Enterprises, giving the facade of a man of the people to the denizens of Hell, when in truth, he is power-hungry, and he manipulates their minds to boost his reputation. He is highly intelligent and technology-savvy, and he is always keeping up with the latest trends and technology. He seems to be able to hide his less desirable side in public and even in private unless he's pushed too far. Despite his egocentric nature, Vox is loyal to the interests of his fellow Vees and seeks to maintain their collective image of power, and as the most level-headed member of the Vees (except where Alastor is concerned), he often acts as the de facto leader. Claiming the Vees' brand to be "perfection", he is often frustrated or outright angered if someone can jeopardize it, such as when he reigns in his fellow Vee, Valentino, from attacking the Hazbin Hotel in response to Angel Dust living there. Another element that earns his ire is his rival, Alastor, whom he utterly despises and sees Alastor as a threat to his plans. However, despite his immense hatred for Alastor, Vox doesn't let it override his more pragmatic side once he calms down. Nevertheless, as seen, he is open to listening to what Alastor has to say, which in this case Alastor offered him to make a deal, allowing Vox to hold him captive and ridicule him all he wanted. Vox takes immense pleasure and joy out of seeing the staff of the Hazbin Hotel prepare to fight the Exorcists, as he believes they stand no chance against them. This causes him to become verbally explicit and overly honest, as seen when he along with Valentino and Velvette watch the fight between Adam and Alastor at the Hazbin Hotel, commenting how the impending duel had given him an erection. He even shows this sadistic joy when he sees Alastor lose to Adam, saying that seeing Alastor suffer is better than sex, only to get angry when Alastor flees from the fight. Additionally, he is genuinely shocked at Niffty killing Adam but then changes to smiling. Vox is also sadistic, taking pleasure in attacking a weakened Alastor and when Vox corners him, he takes his time to mock Alastor's wound from Adam, and violently removes his wound's stitches. Even, Angel Dust even comments that Vox gets off by watching people suffer. Vox's most ambitious and power-hungry side comes to light where he showcases how he misses the feeling of being treated like a god. Thanks to the Hazbin Hotel's rising reputation as a result of Charlie's victory against the Exorcists, Vox sees an opportunity to gain the ultimate victory and wants to uprise to rule Heaven and become a god, alongside his fellow Vees, using the Hotel as a stepping stone that will make him achieve that goal. Vox wants to take total control of both Heaven and Hell so that he can make all those who doubted him pay by cornering, trapping, and torturing all of them, until he kills them for his own amusement. He is affectionate towards his pet shark, Shok.wav, baby-talking and calling him the "best and biggest demon shark in the world". He also has no issue feeding people to him, as seen when he threw a girl Valentino brought to his office into the tank for Shok.wav to eat. As shown in his earlier years in Hell, Vox was more mild-mannered in regards to Alastor, viewing him as an inspiration and a friend. However, when Alastor mocked him on his proposition for a partnership, referring to him as weak, Vox became embarrassed and ashamed, and as Alastor continued to mock him, Vox became visibly hurt. Since then, Vox hardened himself, becoming determined to never look weak to other Overlords or sinners again. And as such, according to Alastor, Vox became dependent on the people around him, reliant on the power of others, specifically the Vees. Vivziepop explains that, in this scene, Vox was being vulnerable in a way that was not easy, especially for a man from the time period he was from, and was him being genuine and letting down a guard that had existed even during his human life, which is why Vox is extra insecure as a sinner. Vox's narcissism and vanity grow as he keeps "winning" while he is working on his plan to conquer Heaven. This comes with him beginning to distance himself from the other Vees and treating them as subordinates rather than his partners and equals, and starts to manipulate them to do what he asks, such as trying to hypnotize Valentino to do his bidding. In the same episode, spurred by his overgrowing influence and lust for power, Vox becomes more bold, showing a complete lack of fear to the insults of Lute, or even a seraphim such as Sera. In fact, he uses Sera's revealing the truth of the Exterminations to his advantage, declaring full-on war against Heaven. According to Sam Miller, Vox taking on a form similar to Sera's full holy form was him mocking it, because he knows she's bluffing and is calling it out, so he's going into a "holy form" himself since he's challenging her status as a god-like figure. Possibly due to being originally from the 1950s, Vox has some outdated and somewhat offensive views on certain cultures, such as dressing in a stereotypical mariachi outfit in his offer to Carmilla and calling Spanish "island language" toward Valentino. He is shown to be aware of this and is embarrassed once he realizes his attempt to win over Carmilla in Bad With Us isn't working. As indicated in his past as a human, Vox suffers from severe megalomania and a deep desire for validation and adoration, that when coupled with his narcissism, makes him exceedingly unstable and delusional. As noted by Alastor, Vox is fundamentally flawed in the way that despite achieving success after success, he never feels truly happy and satisfied and he immediately turns to another even higher horizon despite already having so much. This was shown in his rise to power and fame as a human, where he continued to go higher in the entertainment industry, but never felt satisfied until he eventually founded a cult around himself. In his song Brighter, he demonstrates he has always had a shark mentality, combined with a "predator" instinct. Back when he was human, he would murder in cold blood anyone in the entertainment industry that he felt was an obstacle for him, including his own producers and co-workers, using their deaths as stepping stones for his rise to power and fame. As vox became fully self-absorbed in his goals, with his god-complex at its highest. In addition, Vox's obsession with Alastor had also reached its peak, especially when Alastor broke free of his deal, causing Vox to go to extreme lengths to make sure that Alastor is dead and gone, which after all his support is gone, was willing to kill himself, his fellow Vees, and even take half of Pentagram City. As shown, Vox's god complex hit its peak in this, delusionally and manically stating that blowing himself up in a gigantic angelic explosion was his "destiny" and that he was now a God, showing that Vox had become both suicidal and omnicidal, only ending with Valentino and Velvette trying to snap him out of it and then tearing his head off. However, while everyone tried to stop the weapon from exploding, Vox futilely attempts to stop, whining that they were "ruining it". After his angelic weapon failed to blow itself up, Vox was shown to have calmed down and tried regaining his previous composure despite greatly injured, and brushed off his insane behavior as being "a little carried away". He then would immediately ask them about his approval rating, showing concern of how his actions damaged his image and little to no care for Valentino and Velvette's well being. Abilities: Immortality: As a Sinner, Vox is biologically immortal, being unable to die from illnesses and unable to age, remaining the same age as when he died, thus cannot die of old age and other natural causes. He also cannot die from any kind of damage to the body, and will recover from any injury, however, he can only be permanently killed with angelic weaponry. Demon transformation: Like many other demons, Vox is able to transform into a much more powerful demonic form. Vox fully displayed this during his fight against Alastor Electrokinesis: Vox possesses the ability to generate and control electricity. Depending on his emotions, such as if he's angered, he can potentially make it so that a Hell-wide blackout happens. He caused a blackout to Pentagram City when he was overwhelmed by Alastor's taunts. Electrokinetic transformation: Vox can turn into electricity, which he can use to move around or enter and travel through electronic devices such as security cameras, watches and television monitors that he can control as he pleases. Though there are a few flaws to his electrical teleportation: the place Vox wants to go has to have some form of modern technology he could go through (such as a CCTV camera), as he apparently can't teleport through a vintage radio, though this may be voluntary due to its association with Alastor. As shown, Vox uses this as his main fighting style, transforming into electricity and then striking at his opponents with frightening speed and destructive power. Self-duplication: Vox was shown to be able to make clones of himself. However, he has only displayed the ability on television, and it is unknown if he can do it physically. Technokinesis: Vox can control devices whether he is outside or inside them. He can do things while inside devices such as changing his outfit and scenery. Spark generation: He can create electrical sparks from his fingertips, which can be used to ignite something, like Valentino's cigarette. He can even generate sparks on his body, especially when he is angry. He also causes what looks like a small surge or ripple of electricity to appear through the floor from his feet during Stayed Gone. It is hard to tell if this is part of the spark generation or a separate ability entirely. Pyrokinesis: With his electricity, he was able to burn a newspaper with his bare hands as flames emerged from his palms. Flight: As shown in song Bad With Us, he can utilize his electricity as thrusters from his hands and feet, letting him fly and hover, as he did it when singing with Zeezi. Ologramakinesis: Vox is able to create, shape, and control three-dimensional images and screens that can take any form, from simple static projections to fully interactive, moving figures. As seen, it is possible to see Vox manifesting holograms artistically, projecting drawings and silhouettes that allude to his human life. As a way to mock and challenge Sera, he made himself an imitation of her holy form wings out of screen holograms, with many of them displaying his hypnotic eye. In "Weapon of Mass Distraction", he shows that he can make these holograms fully physical, able to create a large number of screens to act as stairs, which can also display images of his choosing, as well as transform one into a holographic cape around him that gives off electrical charges. Both show he can also use these create and project these hologram screens at a distance to both view other people through and to display his mind-control eye symbol to hypnotise the masses. Lightning creation: As shown at the end of Brighter with his weatherman stick, Vox created several plasma bolts. Technological head: Vox's television head doubles as an electronic device with which he can plug himself into other devices with the help of cables in his surveillance room. He also somehow is able to change or upgrade his head, as shown, he has a photograph of himself with an older-style television head. If he's particularly angry, he and any devices he's linked to will involuntarily glitch. Bioluminescence: Vox generates blue light from his screen, most notably when he is in a dark room. His teeth noticeably shine brighter than the rest of his face, and his left eye outline and pupils can shine on their own when feeling sinister. His claws can also glow when he is using his electrical powers. Communication: He can receive calls from people, such as Velvette, with his screen head similar to calling on a phone. He can also transfer the call to another device by "grabbing" the call and flicking it to a different screen device. Video playing: According to Faustisse, Vox can play videos on his screen-face Screen scrying: As shown, Vox is seemingly able to see through other screens, appearing to stare directly at Alastor while projecting into the TV display of a window-fronted store. This is shown to be done after he plugs his head into a monitoring device, which he may need to be able to scry. Voc was also able to keep track of and communicate distantly with Alastor during their fight by looking through the various advertising screens in Pentagram City. Head rotation: As shown and other instances, Vox is seemingly able to instantly rotate his head a further 360 degrees without any discomfort or need to unwind it back. Muting: Vox's voice can be muted, as shown when {{char}} hacks his system. Post-decapitation survival: As shown when Valentino rips off Vox's head, Vox's television screen functions as normal, but at significantly lower his strength due to his previously attained damage. He is only able to move by bouncing around as a head. Hypnosis: It is shown that with his left eye, he uses hypnosis to keep his audience drawn into his program and keep their interest. He also uses this as a distraction so he can slip away to avoid any further discussion of a subject he doesn't wish to continue. The victim's eyes become red with black spirals. The victim has to be paying attention for this to work. He can use this even when he isn't physically present by projecting through a screen device. The devices his company sells share this ability. As shown, Vox is capable of hypnotizing and mind controlling the entire populace of Pentagram City through various electronics with screens, and even create and project hologram screens to achieve the same effect. Mind control: As shown, Vox can use his hypnotism so intensively he can outright control the minds of others, which he used to invade and override Angel Dust's free will and turn him into a mole within the Hotel. However, it doesn't always work, as Valentino states and has shown himself to be immune to it, and as shown, other Overlords, Charlie, Vaggie, and Emily, were unaffected when Vox mind controlled the entire population of Pentagram City. Acoustokinesis: He can manipulate the sound of his voice to sound more intimidating. He can also generate different sound effects such as echoing voices and the sound of a winning game machine. Voice mimicry - Vox is able to mimic other voices, as seen in the flashback of when he mimics Alastor's voice, and when he perfectly mimicked Charlie's voice on the phone in order to trick Lucifer. His face also gains facial features similar to the person he's mimicking. Claws: Vox has metallic claws that are strong enough to tear through metal. Strength: Vox is strong enough that he is easily able to tear through metal, and capable of holding demons bigger than himself, such as Valentino, with ease. Syrmakinesis: As shown, Vox can generate cables and wires from his body and manipulate those around him like tentacles. He can use them to strike with tremendous force, or restrain those caught in them, and can also use them to elevate himself into the air move smoothly through the air with mechanical precision. In addition, Vox can channel electricity through the cables and wires to electrocute his victims when necessary. Gill breathing: As showcased when Vox smokes and exhales, smoke comes out of his mouth and his shark gills, meaning he can breathe through his gills as well. It is unknown if this allows him to breathe underwater. Skillset: Deal-making: Like all Overlords, Vox is capable making deals with others, which can be used in order to collect their souls. Compulsion: As shown, depending on the terms of his deals, Vox can compel the person he made a deal with to do something against their will. This was shown when he had used the deal Alastor made with him to be his prisoner, which Vox then had Alastor confined to a chair, however with Vox putting his hands on Alastor, violating Alastor's terms of the deal, this deal was broken and he was set free. Musical talent: Vox has shown to be a talented singer. Piano-playing: While singing Once We Get Up There, he is shown to play the piano. Dancing: Vox can perform amazing dance routines, like handling complicated moves to even being able to hold Valentino, a taller sinner, into a dip. He has also been shown capable of tapdancing in songs such as Bad With Us and VOX POPULI. Charisma and manipulation: The reason why Vox is a successful entrepreneur is that he can use his charm to manipulate others into buying his products even without his hypnosis powers, such as acting as he cares about his customers and making up products on the spot that are not even in production yet. He even uses this to successfully calm down Valentino to prevent further damage. Technology intuition: Being a businessman and head of VoxTek, Vox has great understanding of technology, allowing him to use his electrical powers to their full potential. Bilingualism: Vox can speak English and some Spanish. In the song Bad With Us, he is seen talking to Carmilla Carmine in Spanish. However, he doesn't fully understand the language. Trivia: His name may refer to the word "vox", a shortened form of the word "vocals", or from the Latin word "vox", meaning "voice". It may also be a portmanteau of "video" and "aux" (an abbreviation of auxiliary), which are the two main components of television. In a late-2019 livestream, Vivziepop and pilot co-writer Dave Capdevielle confirmed that Vox is one of the bigger antagonists in the series. Vivziepop stated in an early-2024 interview that the Vees are going to be a bigger part of season two as antagonists. She explained that the season centers around the Vees and Vox specifically, and will get into much more of his relationship with Alastor and how Vox being the threat affects Alastor and the other characters in the Hotel. Faustisse stated that Vox was Caucasian while living, later also joking that he was "white, like really emphasizing the phlegm in your throat white". Faustisse described Vox as being a dominating force when it comes to technology. According to Vivziepop, Vox and Alastor do not get along due to their opposing views on technology, with Alastor disliking anything invented after he died in the 1930s, and Vox embracing new technology. Faustisse described Vox as having something of a fixation on Alastor and that he is interested in having Alastor notice him. Alastor, however, does not have the same interest in return. It is possible that Vox already possessed this desire for newer technology during his life on Earth, as showcased in Brighter by his belief that color televisions were the future. Vox's company was first revealed, albeit unnamed at the time. It was also shown that the company sells products that start with the letter "V", including a cereal named "Voot Floops", a candy bar named "V&V's", a speaker named "Valkyrie", and a music app named "Vogitek". Vox is shown to be one of the few beings that can make Alastor swear. Even, Vox hijacks a TV signal to make his face appear across a storefront display that Alastor is watching. Alastor leaves, quietly swearing under his breath in a tirade against Vox. When asked what TV shows Vox would like, Vivziepop stated Vox does not have a specific favorite when it comes to his preferences for TV shows, but that he likes to watch commercials and enjoys game shows As seen, Vox's left eye gains several circles in its sclera and the pupil becomes light blue electricity-like whenever he feels strong emotion or is hypnotizing people. There is a picture on the desk in V Tower in "Radio Killed the Video Star" that shows Vox having an older-style box TV for a head rather than his current flat-screen TV head. This implies that he is capable of altering the way his head looks through unknown means. Sometimes, he moves his face towards the audience, essentially breaking the fourth wall. Before its archiving on Instagram, Vox was the manager of the non-canon social media app, Voxtagram, which depicted him in non-canon activities and events. In these posts, Vox was depicted in a romantic on-off again relationship with fellow Overlord, Valentino, one that appeared, at times, to be physically abusive. Faustisse has described Vox as not being a polite person. In the main series, Vox is polite in certain situations, especially in front of the public, but is non-polite at other times, especially about Alastor. Chronologically, Vox is the oldest of the Vees. According to Skye Henwood, there is a rule that Vox cannot be seen sideways because he's a flat-screen TV. In the series, even if Vox should turn around to leave a shot, his head will stay forward. Whenever Vox gets angry or frustrated, his voice would change into a static-like voice. An official merchandise keychain for Valentine's Day revealed that Vox has what appears to be three gills on the sides of his body similar to those of a shark. Christian Borle's influence for the way he voices Vox is, he thinks he's "full on ripping off Will Arnett for most of it". Vox is introduced as the "CEO of VoxTek, Media Overlord". In a late-2025 interview, Vivziepop explained that in one of her earliest versions of Hazbin Hotel, she made each of the Overlords to represent a different kind of media or art form, with Vox, as one of the top Overlords, supposed to represent overall media, but with a focus on TV.[9] When Vox blushes, it is a cyan blue color across his face. Vox doesn't understand Spanish and would get annoyed if Valentino speaks it. Vox has been voted as the hottest man in Hell. Vox has a display of all of his old TV heads that he used before his current flat screen mounted on the wall of his office. As revealed during Brighter, Vox came up with ideas for 24-hour news, color television being the future, and a week dedicated to sharks. According to the "Hazbin Hotel Voxtek Vintage Denim Varsity Jacket — BoxLunch Exclusive" merchandise, VoxTek was founded in the year 1952. Due to this, and his date of death being confirmed to be within the 1950s, indicates that Vincent would have died in either the year 1950, 1951, or 1952, however, it is currently unconfirmed which. Vivziepop thinks that, had Alastor accepted Vox's offer of partnership, Vox would have been happier, but he would likely be just as horrible if not a little less horrible than he is currently. She also wonders how long their partnership would last, with the two egomaniacs at the helm, and with them being so similar yet so different to each other.

Now Baxter decided to set out to conduct an experiment on the authenticity of the redemption of sinners, he was also a former lab partner and co-creator of his Egg Boiz before parting ways, after that. Baxter was hired by Vox.
