Evil Is Sexy TRS; this has become an objective, in-universe trope.

** Karra is an example of this, being every bit as sexy but not as much TheVamp in ''Resurrection.''

** Baalth proves his credentials for this when he manages to not only play his role up from being the decided underdog in a conflict between Asmoday, Heaven, and Frank [[spoiler: to becoming the new Satan after Armageddon Bound]] but he does so by getting his enemies to do his dirty work for him.
** Frank, himself, has shades of this by being able to come within inches of destroying Asmoday and [[spoiler: Gabriel's]] plans through his own wheeling and dealing. Frank fully reaches this point by ''At the Gates'' when he manages to outplay every Archangel, Demon, and Nephilm in the world.

* CompleteMonster: Azrael, the Archangel of Death. While Gabriel and Michael are interested in causing Armageddon, Azrael is interested in killing ''the entire world.'' This will elevate him to the status of becoming the new God since God and Lucifer are missing. To this end, he encourages the War in Heaven because it's causing massive numbers of deaths on Earth and he hopes to destroy the Tree of Life as well, which will remove the immortality of all angels as well as demons. Presumably, he thinks this won't effect him. While this can all be justified from a TheStarscream perspective or naked ambition, he fully embraces this role when he taunts Frank about the rape and murder of his mother. He gets ''worse'' as the series goes on.
