* GlurgeAddict: To the Princess of Hell, sunshine and rainbows might as well be food and drink. She's is constantly gushing and squealing about cute or wholesome things and is overall a very maudlin and easily excited woman.

* TranquilFury: Normally, whenever Charlie is genuinely enraged at whoever or whatever offended her, she's [[RageBreakingPoint notably incensed]] even tapping into her demonic powers. However, upon learning [[spoiler:Vaggie has been lying about her actually being an Exorcist Angel, Charlie is left shocked and angry at the lie. But, in case of OOCIsSeriousBusiness, Charlie's anger at Vaggie isn't emotional or expressive, it's the opposite - Cold and icy. This is a huge indicator of how hurt Charlie was at Vaggie's lie and supposedly not trusting her with her true origin]].

* SamaritanRelationshipStarter: Charlie's first encounter with Vaggie was during an Extermination three years prior to the start of the series: she found her laying injured in an alley. At that point, everyone involved in the massacre, be it Exorcists or Hell denizens, have either fought and slaughtered indiscriminately or just merely duck for cover, with Vaggie not expecting anyone to raise a hand to help her. Unlike most, Charlie actually stops and bandages her just for the sake of helping someone in need. Seeing someone who not only offers help but does it in such a doting, caring way makes Vaggie feel an instant connection with her. One HeldGaze later and the two have been a couple ever since.

* {{Manchild}}: Charlie is hundreds or thousands of years old (and even considering her immortality has the physical age of a young adult); she is the only person in Hell who acknowledges that a yearly purge of its citizens is a problem and wants to fix it. She also has a hyperactive, bubbly, and even childish personality, with a lot more enthusiasm than preplanned steps. She presents her plans to Heaven and Hell with pictures drawn in ''crayon'' and communicates her ideas via reality-warping musical numbers. When she's in Heaven to pitch her plans before the Heavenly Court, she acts like a tourist, eager to visit Heaven's petting zoo and try Rainbow Sprinkles on ice cream. When attempting to get the Habin Hotel guests and employees to bond through trust exercises, she eagerly wants to go first, like a kindergartener in show-and-tell. %%gendered redirects are only allowed on character-specific pages ''if'' it doesn't interfere with the alphabetical order. Changing this entry to "Womanchild" messes with the alphabetical order. Please stop changing this to "Womanchild."

She certainly tries to be this, and she has the heroic persona, but the stakes of the show exist because she has failed to inspire the sinners to follow her example. That said, her idealism has at least reformed Vaggie and managed to crack Angel's heartless facade a little. She's even made an unambigously evil overlord work for something good instead of spreading bloody chaos, even if only because said evil overlord is just bored with spreading bloody chaos. [[spoiler:Compared to the Exorcists Adam and Lute and even the top Seraphim of Heaven, Sera, who are behind the exterminations to begin with out of a desire for entertainment and fear that Hell will rise up against Heaven, Charlie is shown to be much more heroic than them.]]

That being said, Husk never says hard truths without purpose - he points out that Angel Dust is a loser and an unhappy mess, but only does so to help him realise that not accepting himself will prevent him from improving, and accepting it will allow him to grow and actually have a chance and getting better.

In the season one finale, she displayed an impressive feat of strength when she made Adam bleed and absorbed his full-powered surprise punch without any negative consequences.

* AccentAdaptation: Inverted in the Latin American Spanish dub, done in Chile. In stark contrast with the rest with the cast, who speaks using Mexican accents, Husk speak with his voice actor's Chilean accent instead, possibly to emphasize his grumpy personality with the rest of the cast.

Creator/KeithDavid once again plays a demon with a red and black color palette (''WesternAnimation/{{Spawn}}''), a cat (''WesternAnimation/{{Coraline}}''), a winged humanoid creature (''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}''), and a man in debt to a Voodoo-themed Friend On The Other Side (''WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog'').

Charlie's feisty yet sweet and caring girlfriend, who tries to support her despite her own doubts. She serves as the hotel's manager and protector. She initially posed as a moth-demon Sinner, but is revealed to be a fallen angel and former Exorcist.
----
* ACupAngst: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Angel and Niffty poke fun at her having small breasts, but she's only mildly annoyed about it and ignores them.
* AccidentalMisnaming: Other than Charlie it doesn't seem anyone can get her name right. It's in part being both unusual but close enough to other more common names people assume they misheard.
* ActionGirlfriend: Downplayed. While Charlie is capable of [[ActionGirl kicking ass]] when the situation has truly become dire (like the Hotel being directly attacked by the Exorcists for one), Vaggie is the one who will resort to violence the quickest if she feels there's a threat.
* ActorAllusion: A singing female character who can also talk in Spanish (well, in profanity) with South American roots. Unsurprisingly, [[WesternAnimation/{{Encanto}} her voice actor had already done that role before.]]
* AlienBlood: It's eventually revealed that she has gold-colored blood due to actually being an Angel, contrasting the Sinners and Hellborn demons--who have a variety of blood colors.
* AllForNothing: Vaggie keeping her FallenAngel Exorcist past a secret from Charlie out of shame turned out to be all for not. While Charlie was upset and hurt by the reveal, it stemmed from Vaggie lying about said past than actually being an Exorcist; and the other Hotel residents are rather blase about the entire reveal (if anything, the worst she gets is some teasing), and if her encounter with Carmilla Carmine is any indication, even Overlords don't seem to care much about it. In other words, Vaggie had nothing to worry about if she had been honest with Charlie from the beginning.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: While it's unknown if Vaggie was well-liked among the Exorcist Angels prior to being [[FallenAngel abandoned]], she's this to them in the present. They all give a chorus of "boos" when Adam brings her up and cheer when he offers them a reward for her death.
-->'''Lute:''' Rip Vaggie's cunt-mouth out her ass!
* AlmightyJanitor: She seems like just an ordinary Sinner but is actually a [[FallenAngel former Exorcist]]. Angels in the Hellaverse are inherently stronger than demons and the Exorcists have been completely unopposed in their slaughter of Sinners for untold centuries until the start of the series due to how badly they outgun them, meaning that while Vaggie doesn't appear to be too notable in the angelic hierarchy, she is still stronger than the vast majority of Sinners in Hell.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Her skin is ashen gray.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: The reveal that Vaggie is a FallenAngel rather than a sinner brings her backstory into question. An official source has made mention of her being Salvadoran and having died sometime in the 2010s, but it's also mentioned that Adam gave her the name Vaggie and that she learned to build trust by fighting. Was Vaggie a human who ascended to Heaven, got a name change later, and learned to fight? Or was she an angel born in Heaven and given her name after racking up a bunch of kills during her stint as an Exorcist? The fact that she speaks Spanish and looks fairly human-like implies that the backstory of her being human once is true, but it's still unclear.
* AngelicBeauty: Vaggie turns out to be a FallenAngel, specifically an ex-Exorcist, and is a beautiful young woman. In fact, when Vaggie first met Charlie, the former has just been mutilated by [[AxCrazy Lute]], and was left in a state of mess, which included having a gouged-out eye. Even so, the moment Vaggie gave Charlie a grateful smile, the latter became romantically flustered.
* AnimalMotifs: Moths, though it's not immediately obvious. When seen from behind, her hair resembles folded moth wings. One can see how she'd be attracted to someone as bright as [[AllLovingHero Charlie]]. This is also reflected by how she was banished from Heaven in a brutal and painful fashion.
* TheAtoner: "Welcome to Heaven" reveals that she [[FallenAngel was an Exorcist]] who was [[BrokenAngel grounded, partially blinded]] and cast out by Lute and Adam after she spared a Sinner. After being found and patched up by Charlie, she eventually fell in love with her and devoted herself to Charlie's dream of redeeming Sinners, clearly regretful of her past and supporting her girlfriend in trying to stop the very Exterminations she was once a part of.
* AttackAttackAttack: Carmilla points out that the flaw in her fighting style and that of every other Exorcist is that she attacks with complete disregard for her own safety, since Sinners wouldn't ordinarily be capable of harming her.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: A rather unique example. Of the entire main cast, Vaggie was the only one who died in the 2010s, the year 2014 to be exact, while everyone else died earlier (sans Charlie, who was born a demon and is over a hundred years old). Thus, Vaggie is the youngest "death" of the group. How true that is though is called into question with TheReveal she's a FallenAngel rather than a Sinner, and that she didn't ''die'' to end up in Hell but was ''left'' for dead by Adam and Lute before Charlie found her. So, it's unclear if, like Adam, she died in her mortal life and became an Angel, or if the idea she "died" was a fabrication to go with her cover story of being a Sinner. Either way, she's only been in Hell for three years prior to the start of the series while the others have been there for decades--if not centuries.
* BadLiar: She's repeatedly shown to be an extremely bad liar, most notably when she doesn't want to go visit Heaven with Charlie and the best excuse she can think of is [[INeedToGoIronMyDog "I have that thing"]]. Serves as early {{Foreshadowing}} of her actually being an angel who naturally wouldn't have much experience with lying. She even realizes it InUniverse:
-->'''Vaggie:''' Fuck, I'm such a bad liar...
* BattleCouple: She and her girlfriend Charlie fight side-by-side when Adam and the Exterminators come to attack the Hotel.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: "Welcome to Heaven" shows Vaggie and Charlie's first meeting, which came directly after Adam and Lute mutilated Vaggie and left her for dead. Charlie, upon seeing the sorry state Vaggie was in, wasted no time in bandaging her up, which caused Vaggie to fall for her.
* BenevolentBoss: Of a different sort than [[WideEyedIdealist Charlie]], as after her girlfriend, Vaggie is the second-in-command, being the manager. And while Vaggie can be short-tempered, strict, bossy, and judgmental, she is by ''no'' means a cruel person. While she's flawed, she's also proven to be protective, respectful, and loyal person to the Hotel occupants. And before she goes to get vital information from Carmilla Carmine on how to defeat the Exorcist Angels, Vaggie doesn't force the residents to stay and fight, but [[LineInTheSand allows them the choice to leave for their own safety]]; and during this moment, her [[ExpressiveAccessory bow]] droops down in sadness, showing how she's come to care about them during their time together.
* BewareTheQuietOnes: Vaggie is a quiet, emotionally guarded person who has a hard time opening up about her feelings, sometimes even to Charlie. However, she's a skilled spear user, has a sharp mind, and proves to be [[PintSizedPowerhouse stronger than her short height implies]]. Then, it's revealed she was once a ruthless Exorcist Angel, with Adam even referring to her as "one of [his] top girls" and states that Vaggie's kill count was in the ''thousands''. This may mean she has a higher kill count than ''[[TheDreaded Alastor]]''.
* BilingualBonus: She angrily mutters "come mierda malparido" [[note]]Spanish for "eat shit, motherfucker"[[/note]] while in the limousine, and later calls Alastor a "cabrón hijo de perra"[[note]]Spanish for "bastard son of a bitch"[[/note]] right in front of his face.
* BloodKnight: Possibly due to her angelic nature, Vaggie actually enjoys violence and fighting. She was one of Heaven's top exorcists raking up thousands of kills by herself, her idea of a bonding exercise is to take the Hotel patrons out to a battlefield and have them look out for each other, and right before the battle Vaggie admits that she's really excited and hasn't been able to stab anything and really mean it for a long time.
* BodyguardingABadass: As Charlie's self-appointed protector; on paper, Charlie is leagues more powerful than Vaggie ever could be. But since Charlie is too nice to wield that power except in rare circumstances, Vaggie fights on her behalf.
* BoomerangBigot: She's a FallenAngel and has often told Charlie negative things about angels (i.e., they can't be trusted). Given her guilt and self-loathing over her past as an Exorcist and that she was mutilated and abandoned by her superiors for showing a demon child mercy, her attitude is justified.
* BoxingLessonsForSuperman: In "Hello Rosie", Carmilla drives in how the fighting style she and the other Exorcists use leaves themselves wide open if they're facing someone that can hurt them, and drills in some advice on how to overcome these flaws.
* BraidsOfAction: She mentions her long hair gets in the way when she's fighting, so she wears it in a high ponytail when she knows she's heading for battle. She had short hair back when she was an exorcist and first learned how to fight.
* BrokenAngel: After Lute caught her sparing a demon child, she proceeded to gouge out Vaggie's left eye, then tore her wings off her back as Adam took her halo, the two leaving her a bloody mess. Had Charlie not found her, she likely would have bled to death in an alleyway. Losing these traits at least let Vaggie use the cover story she was a Sinner. During her training session with Carmilla in the episode "Hello, Rosie!", she gains a new pair of wings, though she can retract them into her back.
* BrutalHonesty: Whenever Charlie is too nice to properly criticize something, Vaggie is there to give the unfiltered version of Charlie's thoughts. Emphasized in the first episode when Charlie is trying not to badmouth Alastor's rather insulting commercial.
-->'''Charlie:''' We want people to ''want'' to come here, ''this'' makes it look...ummm...\\
'''Vaggie:''' Bad. The word you're looking for is "bad".
* BuffySpeak: When she tries to object to a bar in the Hotel.
-->'''Vaggie:''' This is supposed to be a place that discourages sin! Not some kind of... mouth... brothel... man-cave!
* BullyingADragon: She's brave enough to threaten '''[[TheDreaded Alastor]]''' with her spear, despite knowing ''exactly'' who he is and the terrible powers he wields. It makes more sense after the reveal that she's a FallenAngel; as great as Alastor's powers are, Vaggie has no reason to believe he is any more of a threat to her than any other Sinner. [[MuggingTheMonster That in turn means everyone who gets on her nerves in the series is taunting one of the people who go on a yearly unopposed murderous rampage and is mostly kept alive by Vaggie not wanting to look like a monster in front of Charlie]]. Ultimately a [[ZigZaggingTrope zig-zagged example]], as while she certainly had the means to kill someone like Alastor, Carmilla Carmine points out her overall fighting technique is [[AttackAttackAttack rather sloppy]]. Vaggie somewhat overcomes this through [[BoxingLessonsForSuperman Carmilla pointing out these flaws]], but her rematch with Lute proves that she still has a long way to go to overcome this issue.
* ButtMonkey: In the pilot, she watches her girlfriend humiliate herself live on camera, is constantly disrespected by Angel Dust, and gets shoved around and teased by Alastor.
* CaptainSmoothAndSergeantRough: Charlie is the undisputed leader of the Hotel and is able to use her charisma to inspire people to follow along with her vision, Vaggie is her undisputed second-in-command and treats the guests as though she's their drill sergeant, using more practical and aggressive methods to force the guests to play along.
* CategoryTraitor: Vaggie is seen as this by both Lute and Adam, especially the former, for sparing a Sinner child instead of executing him. A brief moment with the other Exterminators in "The Show Must Go On" implies that they also see Vaggie as this.
* CharacterBlog: She runs the hotel's official Instagram account that she shares with Charlie called [[https://instagram.com/hotel_magnement/ hotel_magnement]].
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: A minor case. In the Pilot, she was vocally opposed to Husk running a bar at the hotel, saying their job is to ''discourage'' sin and that alcohol would just be temptation, leaning closer to a DryCrusader. In the series proper, she's a lot more open to the idea, even telling Angel Dust off for flirting with Husk so he could focus on his job, and Husk later stating she regularly drinks there, letting him hear her woes when she succumbs to InVinoVeritas. She was also much more irritable with other demons, not hesitating to yell at them for their behavior (especially Angel Dust who is their sole patron), but in the series, while bossy, she doesn't seem nearly as angry or fed up. Lastly, the pilot treats her as a ButtMonkey, having her be disrespected or ignored by multiple characters, she's taken much more seriously in the show.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Her expression when seeing Charlie and Emily holding hands is a wide-eyed DeathGlare.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: She does a lot to manage her girlfriend's oddities. Her first scene is keeping Charlie focused on a script they prepared together and ''not'' to sing. Then there's her reaction to Charlie's [[MissingStepsPlan "plan"]] for the hotel, which is supportive but tempered with more down-to-earth expectations.
* CombatPragmatist: While fighting Lute inside the hotel, she brings down a section of collapsed wall on top of her.
* TheConfidant: Charlie tells her ''everything'' -- her hopes, dreams, fears, insecurities, and even her favorite deodorant.
* ControlFreak: Her [[https://twitter.com/HazbinHotel/status/992872171272732672 official bio]] describes her as a control freak. In the pilot, this is best displayed when she objects to Alastor adding a bar to the hotel, on the reason that it's supposed to be a place that discourages sin.
* CostumeEvolution: From the pilot to the series, Vaggie's attire is redesigned from a casual white dress and mismatched stockings (one striped, one solid) to a more businesslike red blouse and black skirt with stockings that match.
* CrazyEnoughToWork: In "Scrambled Eggs," her idea of a trust exercise is literally throwing everyone off a roof into an active war zone and making them fight for their lives together. It works.
* CruelMercy: She lets [[ArchEnemy Lute]] live because she thinks that having her live with the shame of being spared by a "miserable failure" like herself is preferable over killing her outright. Of course, this turns out to have been [[NiceJobBreakingItHero a bad idea]] because Lute is too fanatically focused on killing sinners to allow it to slow her down, even tearing off her own arm in order to resume the fight. The death of Adam and the first failure of their exterminations only forces Lute to re-commit their genocidal end goal for another time, and she ends up taking Adam's place in leading the Exorcists, now more focused than ever on making Charlie and the hotel inhabitants pay.
* CuteLittleFangs: While not as prominent as Charlie's, Vaggie's are visible on occasion. (They were especially notable during the Pilot, where [[ScaryTeeth her entire mouth would occasionally seemed to be filled with them]], but that appears to have been a bit of early character design that was changed.) Interestingly, she does not appear to have had them prior to her fall. Though given that Lucifer has a far more [[OneWingedAngel monstrous, inherently demonic form]] despite still being a (fallen) seraphim, it's most likely that prolonged exposure to Hell causes angels to slowly adapt more demonic traits. This is supported by the fact Lucifer was banished since the accidental creation of Hell, while Vaggie was punished and kicked out from Heaven 3 years before the events of the pilot.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Heavily implied, since in "Scrambled Eggs," her idea of building trust among the crew is how she learned trust: serving in combat together. Though it turns out, her own past was more complex. She may or may not have been involved in Hell's many turf wars, but the truth is that she was a former Exorcist partaking in the annual purge when she realized a demon she was hunting down was just a child, and sparing the kid cost her everything. And while not fully explored, Vaggie's sour expressions throughout the performance of "Welcome to Heaven" also implies that even before she was abandoned, she had grown disillusioned with Heaven.
* DashingHispanic: Downplayed, in that Vaggie is not flamboyant or flashy but actually stoic and quiet. However, she is of Salvadoran descent, speaks fluent Spanish, and has shown to be an expert in using her spear in combat.
* DeadpanSnarker: While she does her best to take thing seriously compared to Charlie, she does crack jokes every now and then at the expense of those who have it coming.
* DealWithTheDevil: Downplayed. In the first episode, she makes a deal with Alastor -- he helps make a proper commercial for the Hotel if she doesn't ask him to be involved with televisions anymore. And unlike most of the deals in this universe, their deal isn't a MagicallyBindingContract but a verbal promise.
* DeclarationOfProtection: In "Scrambled Eggs", she sings an entire song about how she'll do whatever it takes to protect Charlie.
-->''When I saw your face\\
You made me feel like a stranger in a brand new place\\
And it felt so good to be understood\\
But there's so much I wished that I could say\\
So I... I'll be your armor\\
Do whatever it takes, I'll make the mistakes\\
I'll spend my life being your partner''
* DemonOfHumanOrigin: Like all sinners, she was once a human before dying and becoming a demon in Hell. {{Subverted|Trope}} when it's revealed she's actually a FallenAngel, or perhaps just a fired Angel. She used to be one of the Exorcists who came down from Heaven for the extermination, but when she showed a demon mercy, Lute gouged out her eye, and berated her for her actions before tearing her wings off and Adam took her Halo. Stranded in Hell, she had little choice but to pose as a sinner.
* DeviousDaggers: Favors bladed weapons and throws at Angel Dust with remarkable accuracy, to stop him from playing with the window slider in the limo. Unsurprising, given her background as a former Exorcist who has killed thousands of demons using the same sharp weapons before.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Confronts Alastor at spear-point in "Let's Misbehave" and insults him to his face; the Cthulhu part comes with the fact he's [[TheDreaded feared by the denizens of Hell]] and is both a [[SerialKiller mass killer]] and [[TheChessmaster cunning mastermind]]. Vaggie, along with Charlie and Angel, are lucky that he doesn't want to harm them, [[DoNotTauntCthulhu as he makes it clear that he is more than capable of doing so]]. However, with the reveal that Vaggie was once an exorcist, and given that as a rule angels are inherently more powerful than demons, it's very likely that she's strong enough to match Alastor anyway.
* DidYouJustRomanceCthulhu: She's a DemonOfHumanOrigin who's in a relationship with the Devil's daughter. At least on the surface. In truth, she's an exiled Exorcist who was left behind by Lute and Adam after sparing a demon child during an extermination. This slightly closes the power gap between them although Charlie is still far stronger due to being half Seraphim.
* DoesNotLikeMen: She gets accused of this by Angel, and her silent response might be implying some truth to that. This doesn't seem to carry over into the series proper, given she's just as [[GoodIsNotNice guarded, but reasonable]] with men as she is with anyone else. Which is almost impressive considering her [[BadBoss treatment]] at the hands of [[StrawMisogynist the first man]].
* TheDogBitesBack: When she was an exorcist angel, Adam let Lute slash out her eye and tear off her wings for the sin of sparing a demon child, and they left her for dead in Hell. Then, he tried to blackmail her into helping them shut the hotel down, and revealed her past to Charlie to try and ruin their relationship. So when he dies a humiliating and painful death as Niffty stabs him numerous times, Vaggie watches the spectacle with a huge smile and enjoys watching her ex-boss get what's coming to him.
* DrillSergeantNasty: She tends to act like drill sergent whenever she tries to act authoritarian, such as in "Scrambled Eggs" when she forces Angel and Sir Pentious into a turf war battle so they can become FireForgedFriends and in "Dad Beat Dad" when she orders the staff to prepare for Lucifer's arrival. As she's a former Exorcist angel, who essentially act like soldiers, she likely learnt the attitude from her military-like training in Heaven.
* DryCrusader: Implied, since she strongly objects to the hotel serving alcohol, though moreso because it's an activity that leads to sin rather than taking issue with it by itself.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Vaggie was once a ruthless Angel Exorcist, racking up kills in the ''thousands''. However, she was unable to kill a Sinner child and allowed him to escape. This would lead to her getting mutilated and kicked out of Heaven. However, her act of moral restraint would also lead to her being rescued and tended to by Charlie, which would lead to their romance and Vaggie's official HeelFaceTurn.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: When she was an Exorcist, her hair was short, and looked like Lute's. In the present, it's much longer, almost as if it's meant to be a replacement for her wings that were torn off. It also helped her disguise herself as a moth-demon Sinner due to resembling.
* ExpressiveAccessory: Her bow curves and sharpens whenever she gets particularly pissed, making it look like a pair of horns. And in rare moments of sadness, her bow will flop down.
* EyepatchOfPower: She wears an eyepatch with a pink X over her left eye; the X shows through her hair at all times, though.
* EyeScream: When she was exiled from Heaven Lute stabbed her in her left eye, tore it out and crushed it.
* FallenAngel: She was exiled from Heaven for showing mercy to a demon child during one of the Exterminations. Lute took out Vaggie's eye, removed her halo, and sliced off her wings before leaving her to die. However, Vaggie never told Charlie this fact; Charlie only finds out in "Welcome to Heaven" when Adam spills the beans [[EvilIsPetty just to spite her and Charlie]].
* FashionableAsymmetry: In the pilot, her left stocking has pink stripes while her right one is flat grey, her left glove is fingerless while her right has fingers, and her undershirt only has a left shoulder strap. Her design for the series proper does away with this and makes her much more symmetrical.
* {{Flight}}: As a FallenAngel, she used to have wings and the ability to fly. After an impromptu training lesson from Carmilla, Vaggie is able to regrow them, and they now act as RetractableAppendages.
* FlorenceNightingaleEffect: Charlie taking in and helping Vaggie heal from her wounds may not be the only reason Vaggie fell for her, but it certainly formed a solid bedrock to build upon.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Her spear and X-marked eyepatch, both reminiscent of Exorcists, were right in front of the audience the entire time, and Carmilla even says [[PaperThinDisguise it's very obvious]]. Further, Vaggie regularly slips and refers to Sinners and Hell as ''Charlie's'' people and realm, suggesting she sees herself as distinct from them.
* FormerBigot: It's revealed later on that Vaggie used to be an Exorcist Angel, and thus, initially held the same "Sinners are all bad and must be executed" views as her former fellow companions. After sparing a demon child, she was left mutilated and abandoned by her superiors before being found and rescued by Charlie. In the present, Vaggie harbors no prejudice towards Sinners, and any hatred is for a specific few for justified reasons. [[ZigZaggingTrope That being said]], she [[BoomerangBigot sure hates angels now]].
* FriendlessBackground: Faustisse revealed that outside of Charlie she doesn't have any friends. This might be because most of her friends are in Heaven.
* GoblinFace: Her face gets comically exaggerated wrinkles whenever she's truly angry.
* GoodIsNotNice: Vaggie is determined and loyal to Charlie's lofty goals, protective over the Hotel staff/residents, and is one of the more moral characters in the show. She's also the most emotionally guarded and can be ruthless when pushed.
* GoodWingsEvilWings: The Exorcists have black-lined wings with black stripes to demonstrate that the supposedly angelic creatures are anything but, a trait Vaggie shared when she was one of them. When she grows her wings back, they're now grey to match her hair, showing that Vaggie has moved beyond her past.
* GratuitousSpanish: She [[ForeignCussWord swears in Spanish]] when she confronts Alastor, referring to him as "Cabrón hijo de perra".[[note]]Spanish for "Bastard son of a bitch".[[/note]]
* GrowingWings: In "Hello Rosie", Vaggie manages to regrow the wings that Lute had ripped off of her. "The Show Must Go On" shows that she can apparently let them out and retract them at will, though she spends most of the time with them hidden.
* HairTriggerTemper: The only person she's calm around is Charlie, but with everyone else it's very easy to piss her off, something both Angel and Alastor take great pleasure in doing. By the time of the series, while her temper is still there, she's considerably more mellow.
* HairWings: In her pilot design, Vaggie's long hair combined with the stripes at its ends bore a resemblance to moth wings. In the series, her hair is shaped like folded moth wings.
* HandicappedBadass: PlayedWith. Despite missing an eye, and therefore lacking depth perception, her aim is perfect when throwing a knife at Angel Dust and pointing a spear at Alastor. Possibly {{justified|Trope}} given how she's a former Exorcist and used to be one of Adam's top members so it's likely she's just ''that'' competent with weapons after all the training she received in Heaven.
* HeelFaceTurn: In the past she was one of the most bloodthirsty and ruthless Exorcists under Adam's command. But after she became a FallenAngel for sparing a demon child instead of killing them, and met Charlie shortly after, she goes on great lengths to support Charlie's dream.
* HiddenDepths:
** {{Invoked|Trope}}, as WordOfGod described her as a skilled dancer.
** The prequel comics shows Vaggie being a talented artist.
** She was an Exorcist. And since she was caught in the act of showing a demon mercy, she had all of her angelic trappings stripped away from her (and an eye), subsequently left for dead and stranded in Hell, where she was nursed back to health by Charlie, falling for her in the process.
* HidingBehindYourBangs: She's a guarded woman whose bangs spill over the left side of her head, which covers her missing eye.
* HidingYourHeritage: Justified. Vaggie was once an Exorcist Angel but was left near death by Lute and Adam because she spared a demon child. Given she's from a group of people who perform yearly exterminations in Hell, she had to hide her true origins for her own safety. Also, she fell in love with the Princess of Hell, so not wanting to hurt her girlfriend was also a huge factor.
* HolyHalo: She used to have one as an Exorcist angel, but Lute ripped it off along with her eye and wings while punishing her for sparing a demon child.
* HonestAdvisor: To Charlie, as she is not only the manager of the Hotel but also the former's girlfriend and main confidant. Vaggie will always be gently but firmly honest with Charlie about what may be best for them and the Hotel. To everyone else, Vaggie will still be direct but [[BrutalHonesty more brutal]] in manner, especially if they are mocking to her or Charlie.
* HonorBeforeReason: She spares Lute out of a desire to inflict CruelMercy upon her, which leaves Lute incapacitated for all about a minute before the exorcist is immediately back on the attack, preventing her from helping Charlie when fighting Adam.
* HotConsort: Vaggie is a regular Sinner in a committed and loving relationship with the Princess of Hell. Even after TheReveal that the former is a FallenAngel doesn't change her from this trope. In fact, even with her eye gouged out, Charlie still became romantically flustered when the former smiled at her.
* HumanoidAbomination: She's among the most human-looking demons in Hell. This is despite actually being a FallenAngel.
* HunterOfHerOwnKind: When it's discovered that Exorcist Angels ''can'' be injured, despite initial shock at the reveal, Vaggie doesn't hesitate to help with getting the information from Carmilla Carmine under Charlie's orders. During the party before the fight against the Exorcists, Vaggie tells Charlie she's actually happy that she's going to stab something and for the right reasons. And during the battle, Vaggie doesn't hold back against killing them, unlike [[ApologeticAttacker Charlie]].
* HypercompetentSidekick: Vaggie is the undisputed [[NumberTwo second-in-command]] at the Hazbin Hotel and acts as the more serious, grounded counterpart to Charlie's flighty, sometimes overly idealistic standings. She also serves as being a honest consultant to Charlie in times the latter is need of help.
* IHatePastMe: It's implied, especially by some of the lines in "Out For Love", that Vaggie hates and regrets her past as an Exorcist.
* InformedAttribute: She's stated to be fashioned after a Moth, but aside from her hair vaguely resembling folded up Moth wings, there's nothing suggesting such like the more obvious {{animal motif}}s other Sinners have. Becomes {{justified|Trope}} with the reveal she's not a Sinner at all, but an Angel, her hair originally being much shorter and similar to Lute's, the claim of her being a Moth serving to go with her cover story she's a Sinner, and a bit of foreshadowing to the idea her wings were torn off, as "ripping the wings off a moth" is a term associated with torturing someone like she was.
* InsecureLoveInterest: "Scrambled Eggs" shows that she feels unworthy of being Charlie's girlfriend and thinks that if she can't help her, her existence is meaningless. Made even more apparent in "Welcome To Heaven" with TheReveal that Vaggie is a former Exorcist who had a change of heart and wound up being left for dead by Lute and Adam. Her dedication to Charlie comes from her guilt over being an Exorcist mixed with her guilt over having never told Charlie her true identity.
* InterspeciesRomance: With Charlie. While the former is half-Seraphim Angel and half demon, Vaggie turns out to be a FallenAngel.

Charlie's feisty yet sweet and caring girlfriend, who tries to support her despite her own doubts. She serves as the hotel's manager and protector. She initially posed as a moth-demon Sinner, but is revealed to be a fallen angel and former Exorcist.
----
* ACupAngst: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Angel and Niffty poke fun at her having small breasts, but she's only mildly annoyed about it and ignores them.
* AccidentalMisnaming: Other than
ZeroPercentApprovalRating: Despite being demonic royalty, Charlie it doesn't seem anyone can get receives very little respect from the denizens of Hell and is constantly mocked for her name right. It's positive worldview. [[spoiler:Subverted in part being both unusual but close enough the Season 1 finale, where the residents of Hell, even [[{{Jerkass}} Katie Killjoy]], appear to other be showing her a lot more common names people assume they misheard.
* ActionGirlfriend: Downplayed. While Charlie is capable of [[ActionGirl kicking ass]] when
respect after defeating Adam and the situation has truly become dire (like Exorcists' attack on the Hotel being directly attacked by the Exorcists for one), Vaggie is the one who will resort to violence the quickest if she feels there's a threat.
* ActorAllusion: A singing female character who can also talk in Spanish (well, in profanity)
Hotel, though with South American roots. Unsurprisingly, [[WesternAnimation/{{Encanto}} the [[BigDamnHeroes help of her voice actor had already done that role before.father]].]]
* AlienBlood: It's eventually revealed ActionGirl: In the season 1 finale, she proves that she has gold-colored blood due to actually being an Angel, contrasting the Sinners is a very powerful combatant by fending off tons of Exorcists with her shield and Hellborn demons--who have magical blasts and goes into her true demon mode to injure Adam with her demonic trident and manages to successfully nullify and block a variety fully-powered punch from him with relative ease.
* AffectionateNickname: Vaggie gives a number
of blood colors.
cute nicknames to express her love for Charlie. A few include are as listed: "Hun", "sweetie", "baby", "babe", etc.
* AllForNothing: [[spoiler:In "Dad Beat Dad", Lucifer manages to get her a meeting with the angels so she can plead her case that souls can be reformed. In "Welcome to Heaven", despite finally meeting angels that were seemingly far more reasonable than [[BigBadDuumvirate Adam and Lute]], they (or at least Sera) find that [[TheHedonist Angel Dust]] [[TookALevelInKindness making genuine strides to redeem himself]] isn't sufficient evidence that souls can be redeemed; in fact, they don't even ''know'' why souls make it to Heaven or Hell in the first place, only ''when''. Not only that, but Adam threatens that once the next [[FinalSolution Extermination]] begins, [[AndYourLittleDogToo he is going to personally visit the Hazbin Hotel to murder the residents there.]] The only silver lining is that Adam and Lute unwittingly exposed the existence of the Extermination to the rest of the angels, who are notably horrified, Emily in particular.]] [[spoiler:This ends up subverted in the finale proper, as while Adam manages to destroy the Hotel, they are able to rebuild it quickly afterwards, and killing Adam and calling off the Exorcism leads them to suffer only one casualty; Sir Pentious, who is immediately redeemed in Heaven, proving right to Sera's face that Charlie was right after all.]]
* AllLovingHero: She loves her people and is willing to do the impossible to help even the cruelest damned souls avoid a timely demise. When it's revealed that Sir Pentious was sent by Vox to spy on the hotel, Charlie immediately forgives him and offers him a second chance. [[spoiler:Part of why she was so hurt by
Vaggie keeping her FallenAngel Exorcist past a secret from before Rosie helped her get past it is because to her, it was like Vaggie thought that Charlie out of shame turned out wouldn't accept her past despite her having this trait.]] [[spoiler:This attitude even extends to be all the genocidal angel Adam. Despite hating his guts for not. While the billions of deaths he's remorselessly caused, Charlie was upset and hurt by the reveal, it stemmed prevents her father from Vaggie lying about said past than actually being an Exorcist; and the other Hotel residents are rather blase about the entire reveal (if anything, the worst she gets is some teasing), and if her encounter with Carmilla Carmine is any indication, even Overlords don't seem to care much about it. In other words, Vaggie had nothing to worry about if she had been honest with Charlie from the beginning.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: While it's unknown if Vaggie was well-liked among the Exorcist Angels prior to being [[FallenAngel abandoned]], she's this to them in the present. They all give a chorus of "boos" when Adam brings her up and cheer when he offers them a reward for her death.
-->'''Lute:''' Rip Vaggie's cunt-mouth out her ass!
* AlmightyJanitor: She seems like just an ordinary Sinner but is actually a [[FallenAngel former Exorcist]]. Angels in the Hellaverse are inherently stronger than demons and the Exorcists have been completely unopposed in their slaughter of Sinners for untold centuries until the start of the series due to how badly they outgun them, meaning that while Vaggie doesn't appear to be too notable in the angelic hierarchy, she is still stronger than the vast majority of Sinners in Hell.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Her skin is ashen gray.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: The reveal that Vaggie is a FallenAngel rather than a sinner brings her backstory into question. An official source has made mention of her being Salvadoran and having died sometime in the 2010s, but it's also mentioned that Adam gave her the name Vaggie and that she learned to build trust by fighting. Was Vaggie a human who ascended to Heaven, got a name change later, and learned to fight? Or was she an angel born in Heaven and given her name
killing him after racking up he gave Adam a bunch of kills during her stint as an Exorcist? The fact that she speaks Spanish and looks fairly human-like implies that the backstory of her being human once is true, but it's still unclear.
* AngelicBeauty: Vaggie turns out to be a FallenAngel, specifically an ex-Exorcist,
beatdown, even feeling sympathy for Adam's suffering, and is a beautiful young woman. In fact, in shock when Vaggie first met Charlie, the former has just been mutilated he's ultimately killed by [[AxCrazy Lute]], and was left in a state of mess, which included having a gouged-out eye. Even so, the moment Vaggie gave Charlie a grateful smile, the latter became romantically flustered.
Niffty.]]
* AnimalMotifs: Moths, though Dogs. Her nose looks like a snout, she has prominent canine teeth, and her friendliness and hyper-enthusiastic demeanour are traits commonly associated with {{Big Friendly Dog}}s.
* AntiAntichrist: Charlie, daughter of Lucifer and the Princess of Hell. Despite what her lineage may imply, she genuinely cares about her people, and wants to find a more humane way of dealing with its overpopulation. Moreover, unlike other characters, she hasn't done anything horrible, despite ironically being born in Hell.
* ApologeticAttacker: In "The Show Must Go On", Charlie keeps saying ''"Sorry"'' everytime she blocks or attacks angels. A slightly exasperated Vaggie tells her that this isn't the time to be sorry. Charlie then promptly swings back the pendulum by shouting ''"Die motherfuckers!"'' while blasting them with her powers.
* ArbitrarilyLargeBankAccount: Charlie is princess of Hell and second only to Lucifer, so she has no problem with money, seen in episode six where she "persuades" Cherri Bomb to bring the other hotel guests and staff with her and Angel Dust on a night out by literally handing her a stack of cash. She can also easily afford to repair the hotel anytime
it's not immediately obvious. When seen from behind, damaged (which is often), only lamenting that it's tiresome.
* ArtEvolution: In the pilot, Charlie's hair was looser and had a single tie at the bottom, and her pupils were black except during certain moments where she transformed. In the "Music/{{Addict}}" video,
her hair resembles folded moth wings. One can see how she'd was tied up in a twice banded low ponytail, and her suit was a brighter red. In the show proper, Charlie has had more noticeable changes than the other characters with her hairstyle from "ADDICT" is retained and her outfit and pupils now permanently red.
* BadassAdorable: Charlie is a very cute, pretty, and sweet girl who also happens to
be attracted the 3rd most powerful being in all of Hell.
* BadassInANiceSuit: Charlie's usual attire is a tasteful, red suit and she's one of the most powerful people in the show. A [[FreezeFrameBonus background picture]] in "Dad Beat Dad" implies the upper portion of her suit originally belonged
to her father.
* BadassInDistress: She gets strangled and overpowered by Adam in the season 1 finale requiring Lucifer to save her before Adam could get the killing blow on her. She returns the favor later on by blocking Lucifer from Adam's surprise sneak punch.
* BatmanGrabsAGun: Charlie starting to transform into her demonic form is one thing. [[spoiler:Charlie manifesting her DevilsPitchfork and actually ''stabbing''
someone as bright as [[AllLovingHero Charlie]]. This with it]] is also reflected by quite a sight to behold, given how pacifistic she is usually.
* BattleCouple: She and her girlfriend Vaggie fight side-by-side when [[spoiler:Adam and the Exterminators come to attack the Hotel]].
* TheBeautifulElite: She's second only to her father and mother in the Inferno's hierarchy and is quite pretty. Adam even calls her "Lilith's little hottie".
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: It's implied from their general interactions and relationship dynamic, as well as how hurt Charlie was by the idea that Vaggie didn't trust her, that she first fell in love with Vaggie because
she was banished from Heaven in a brutal the first person who listened, supported and painful fashion.believed in Charlie's dreams and ideas. Given how everyone in Hell thought her plan to redeem Sinners was foolhardy, including her father, Vaggie was likely the first person in all of Hell to actively and steadfastly believe and help in Charlie's supposedly impossible dream.
* TheAtoner: "Welcome BenevolentBoss: Goes hand-and-hand with her AllLovingHero NiceGirl personality. Charlie is nothing but a fair, sweet-tempered employer to Heaven" reveals the Hazbin Hotel employees; by the final season 1 episode, she refers to them as her family.
* BerserkButton: Do '''not ''' insult her singing. In episode 7, she goes to Cannibal Town in order to gain more allies, and has to deal with keeping her cool while enduring [[ScrewPolitenessImASenior Susan's]] heckling. The second Susan badmouths her singing is when Charlie [[RageBreakingPoint drops her composure.]]
-->''(Talking at the same time)''\\
'''Charlie:''' ''(singing)'' I...I have a dream and I--\\
'''Susan:''' Boo! Get off. Where's the showmanship? Where's all the finesse? Fucking mediocre!\\
'''Charlie:''' ''(FlippingTheBird)'' '''FUCK YOU, YOU OLD BITCH!!!'''
* BewareTheNiceOnes:
** Charlie is a polite and affable lady, but she doesn't enjoy being mocked for her vision of rehabilitating souls. When Katie Killjoy provoked her enough in the pilot, Charlie fought her in a full-on brawl. Note that Charlie clearly has the ability to [[OneWingedAngel take on a more monstrous form]] (as demonstrated during her song "Inside of Every Demon is a Rainbow"), and yet she still held her own against a transformed Katie without transforming herself. Similarly, she briefly turns demonic when Adam mocks her dream.
** When she finally sees just how badly Valentino abuses Angel in "[[Recap/HazbinHotelS1E4Masquerade Masquerade]]", she's so furious
that she [[FallenAngel was an Exorcist]] nearly confronts him in her full-demon form, who was [[BrokenAngel grounded, partially blinded]] and cast out by Lute and Adam after she is only spared a Sinner. After being found and patched up by Charlie, from what she eventually fell in love with her and devoted herself ''could've'' done to him because Angel interjects to get rid of her.
--->'''Charlie:''' [[VoiceOfTheLegion What makes you think you can]] ''[[VoiceOfTheLegion TREAT HIM LIKE THAT!?]]''
** Charlie is more powerful than Alastor, who is TheDreaded even among the denizens of Hell. It's
Charlie's temperament that holds her back from revealing her true power. [[spoiler:This is shown for the first time in "The Show Must Go On", where both Alastor and Charlie end up fighting against Adam at some point. While Alastor is forced to retreat, Charlie manages to both wound Adam with her pitchfork and do a PunchCatch on him when Adam tries to kill both her and Lucifer.]]
* BeyondRedemption: It's Charlie's goal to [[DefiedTrope defy]] this with the hotel. She believes that no demon is truly beyond help, and that anyone can be redeemed to Heaven if they put in the effort. Trouble is, very few people think she can succeed. Alastor is hanging around the hotel specifically because he thinks she'll fail, and it'll be fun to watch her squirm. Meanwhile, Adam (and all of Heaven, from the way he tells it) think demons are irredeemable monsters who they kill for sport, with Adam outright telling Charlie that her dream is impossible. [[spoiler:Even though she is right that sinners like Angel Dust can change for the better, it doesn't get him into Heaven since not even Heaven's leadership knows what it actually takes to get there in the first place. Ironically Adam is more irredeemable than the sinners he purges and ends up dying completely unrepentant, but even then, Charlie made a point to spare him and wasn't happy to see him killed.]]
* BigRedDevil: While her normal appearance lacks most of the associated traits beyond being dressed predominantly in red, when angry she grows the horns expected of the typical appearance, and her feet are hoofed rather than humanlike under the shoes. She even has the tail at her most demonic.
* {{Bifauxnen}}: Downplayed since she doesn't look or sound particularly androgynous, but she prefers suits over dresses, and also prefers the more traditionally masculine name of [[GenderBlenderName Charlie]].
* BlushSticker: A consistent part of her cute design is a permanent set of rosy cheeks. They even remain in her more demonic form, though in the pilot they are less noticeable due to her SlasherSmile pushing them behind her eyes. Charlie got these from her father.
* BornOfHeavenAndHell: Her mom is a human-turned-demon and her dad is a fallen angel.
* BreakTheCutie: It happens to her twice. First when all the people in the news station laugh at her idea of the hotel. The second time is the aftermath when, thanks to Angel, the Hotel's reputation is dragged through the mud even further. She even tried calling her mother for advice, despite the call not even going to voicemail, admitting she doesn't know what she's doing or how to make her plan work.
** Episode 6 really puts her through the wringer. She not only learns that Heaven isn't as great as she thought, but also that [[spoiler: Vaggie, her girlfriend, is a former Exorcist who has killed thousands of her people and never told her about it]].
* BriefAccentImitation: In the pilot, she takes a British one when promising Vaggie that "I'll just have to rely on my impeccable improv skills" instead of expressing herself through song. She does this again in "Masquerade" while telling Angel that she goes wherever she pleases.
* BullyingADragon: Charlie is usually disrespected and mocked by Hell's citizens. At the same time, she is an extremely powerful demonic PrettyPrincessPowerhouse who would probably tear most of them apart without breaking a sweat if she wasn't such a nice girl.
* BurningWithAnger: Downplayed. Charlie's demon form features hair that burns like fire and she gains a pair of horns when she's legitimately angry and lapses into it.
* CassandraTruth: Charlie's belief that sinners can redeem themselves is met with universal mockery in Hell and rejected by Heaven. Even most of the staff and the first guest at her hotel aimed at redemption don't believe in its mission statement. After all, in the long history of the universe not once has any sinner ascended to Heaven. [[spoiler: Sir Pentious popping into Heaven as an angel proves her right.]]
* CharacterDevelopment:
** The hardships, setbacks, and revelations Charlie is forced to go through has her mature from an extremely docile person who had a hard time being authoritative to a more assertive young woman not afraid to use her royal title in serious situations.
** While she has the best of intentions, Charlie's way of redeeming Sinners is more patronizing and insensitive than actually helpful. This flaw comes to its realistic setbacks when she inserts herself into Angel Dust's abusive relationship with Valentino despite not knowing the full story, with the patron angrily telling her to GetOut. After the emotional interaction, Charlie is left distraught at her actions and tells Husk to not ''force'' Angel back but to make sure he's safe, showing she's now learning to respect boundaries.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Downplayed trope, especially compared to the likes of Vaggie or Niffty, but in the Pilot, Charlie is shown to be very sad deep down, as both her first song is about how she feels like a failure and that all her desires are ultimately unattainable as she sheds a few tears, she also cries during her call to Lillith in the aftermath of her interview, painting a picture of how lost Charlie feels. In the series, while Charlie is still prone to tears when emotional, she's also far more self-assured in herself, never voicing doubt on if she can achieve redemption for sinners but ''how'' she could.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: As Alastor and Husk point out, Charlie prefers to try to resolve the extremely complicated and difficult issues involving Hell and Heaven rather than deal with her own personal problems (ie. her distant relationships with both her mom and dad).
-->'''Husk:''' Princess, is a bleeding heart who wants to solve everybody else's problems 'cept her own.
* CostumeEvolution: In the pilot her tuxedo had a red jacket with black trim, and black pants with red trim. In the series proper, her tux is all red, with dark red accents on the collar and sleeve cuffs, and she wears an untucked shirt underneath, a smaller bowtie and a name tag.
* CovertPervert: Charlie is a sweet, AllLovingHero demon in a committed and stable relationship with Vaggie. That being said, in a brief moment in her song, Charlie is shown holding up a demon's bra with a sly smile.
* CuteLittleFangs: She has some fangs that complement her cute look. It's one of the only outward signs that she isn't human. They're much more prominent in the series proper.
* TheCutie: Charlie's an adorable, bubbly, naïve, song-loving NiceGirl of a princess, idealistic and lover of rainbows and puppies. She stands in stark contrast to the rest of Hell.
* TheCuckoolanderWasRight: Charlie's idea of having Sinners enter her hotel to achieve redemption, and the idea that they can redeem themselves in general, is met with apathetic indifference at best and utter derision at worst. [[spoiler:"The Show Must Go On" eventually proves Charlie right by having a newly-redeemed Sir Pentious rematerialize in front of Emily and Sera, proving that redeeming Sinners really is possible]].
* DealWithTheDevil: While she's savvy enough to avoid making any binding contracts with Alastor regarding his patronage of the Hotel, instead just telling him to help for as long as he wants of his own free will since he's the one who came to her expressing interest, after being driven into a corner by the impending Extermination with no solution she's ultimately desperate enough to form a contract with him in exchange for information on how to defeat the Exorcists. Though she doesn't sell her soul thankfully, instead promising Alastor one favor that he may name at a future date, with the stipulation that she will not harm anyone during that request.
* DeconstructedCharacterArchetype: Charlie is basically the Franchise/DisneyPrincess of Hell -- she has the [[WideEyedIdealist idealism]] and the [[FriendToAllLivingThings personality]] down, complete with frequently bursting into song, but instead of an idyllic medieval kingdom, she rules over a hyper-violent, crime-infested [[WretchedHive urban]] [[AccidentalPun hell]][[WretchedHive scape]]. Consequently, her royal status doesn't get her any love or respect from her subjects (especially since she's too nice to really utilize said authority most of the time), and the sheer horribleness of the environment means that most of the denizens see her determined altruism as hopelessly naïve at best and dangerous at worst.
* DemonLordsAndArchdevils: She holds the title of Princess of Hell. However, she's less of an infernal demonic mistress and more a garden-variety Franchise/DisneyPrincess, complete with bouncy and optimistic naïveté, saccharine song numbers, and the like.
* {{Determinator}}: It's hard to keep this girl down for long. Even though she's told by denizens of both Hell and Heaven that her
dream of redeeming Sinners, clearly regretful of sinners is never going to happen, Charlite refuses to let it get her past down for long, soldiering forward and supporting intending to prove her girlfriend in trying to stop way can work. Throughout the very Exterminations she was once a part of.
* AttackAttackAttack: Carmilla points out that the flaw in her fighting style and that of every other Exorcist is that she attacks with complete disregard for her own safety, since Sinners wouldn't ordinarily be capable of harming her.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: A rather unique example. Of the entire main cast, Vaggie was the only one who died in the 2010s, the year 2014 to be exact, while everyone else died earlier (sans Charlie, who was born a demon and is over a hundred years old). Thus, Vaggie is the youngest "death" of the group. How true that is though is called into question with TheReveal
show, she's a FallenAngel rather than a Sinner, portrayed as [[WideEyedIdealist naïve but well-meaning and idealistic]], and [[FriendToAllLivingThings with the kind of personality that chooses to see the good in everyone]].
* DevilsPitchfork: In her demon form,
she wields a fancy trident forged from angelic steel. There's a snake wrapped around the handle and an apple at the base of the blade, suggesting Lucifer gave it to her.
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Because Charlie herself is so pure, [[GoodCannotComprehendEvil she often dramatically underestimates what's actually needed in order to help people]]. She has a very surface level understanding of what leads people to sin, which results in an approach to mental health and therapy that can be very condescending and treating her guests childishly. [[CharacterDevelopment She makes progress in gradually growing out of this as the series goes on]], such as recognizing that haphazardly inserting herself between Angel Dust and Valentino inadvertently made the situation worse and specifically asking Husk to ''not'' force Angel back to the Hotel, but just ensure that he was safe until he was ready to return on his own.
** Though she has good intentions, no amount of singing or emotional appeals gets Charlie's idea of redemption across to the sinner demons, who are all unrepentant bastards. Even her list is [[MissingStepsPlan shoddy and doesn't exactly explain just how to reach her goal]]. Her [[ZeroPercentApprovalRating lack of credibility]] isn't helping either. Not to mention that Charlie calling her potential clients cretins, sluts and losers in her song probably
didn't ''die'' to end up in Hell but was ''left'' for dead by Adam and Lute before Charlie found her. So, it's unclear if, like Adam, she died in endear her mortal life and became an Angel, or if the idea she "died" was a fabrication to go with them, as it shows that despite her cover story of being a Sinner. Either way, good intentions, she's only been in Hell clearly harboring some level of disdain for three years prior them.
** As Alastor points out, her hotel is very inadequate in terms of staff and amenities. If it wasn't for him calling in Niffty
to clean up the start of place and Husk to work in the series while newly formed bar, no demon would come to such a shoddy place.
* {{Dogfaces}}: Charlie's nose is a dog-like snout highly reminiscent of classic Disney cartoons' and movies' dogfaces. Although we don't see her ears, Charlie's teeth are canine-like as well, making it more of a literal example.
* DoNotCallMePaul: Her full name is Charlotte, but if
the others have been there for decades--if not centuries.
* BadLiar: She's repeatedly shown to be an extremely bad liar, most notably when
fact that it's crossed out on [[https://twitter.com/HazbinHotel/status/992872171272732672 a character profile]] is any indication, she greatly prefers Charlie. While she doesn't want seem to go visit Heaven with Charlie and the best excuse really get mad about it, she corrects Katie immediately when she refers to her by her full name.
* DragonRider: She
can think of is [[INeedToGoIronMyDog "I have that thing"]]. Serves as early {{Foreshadowing}} one of her familiars serve as a draconic mount if she ever goes into full combat mode.
* DramaticWind: Charlie's demonic transformation is accompanied by her hair being whipped around wildly.
* TheDreaded: While other demons are willing to demean or insult her, it's notable that few are willing to go as far as
actually being an angel who naturally wouldn't have much experience ''picking a fight'' with lying. She even realizes it InUniverse:
her. Nice or not, she's still one of the most powerful beings in Hell and the daughter of Lucifer. Adam makes a mistake of underestimating her when they are fighting, which results in Charlie stabbing him and making him bleed.
* DudeMagnet: When she goes to a BDSM club with the Hotel residents at Angel Dust's suggestion, three demons at said club become very interested in her. Valentino creepily [[LecherousLicking licks her arm]] and offers her a porn job. And [[DirtyOldMan Adam]] refers to her as "Lilith's little hottie".
* DudeWheresMyRespect: You'd think as Hell's Princess, Charlie would get at least some respect from other demons. Instead, she's met with ridicule for her ideals. According to a [[https://twitter.com/VivziePop/status/1094341412659781632 tweet]], a [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=PKARLiCRocA&t=4078 livestream]], and a [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=K9B-SiHh6KA&t=2540 Q&A]], this is because the populace of Hell in general are complete jerkasses, who only respect the royals out of fear of their power. As Charlie's reputation and demeanor aren't perceived as threatening, she's ruthlessly mocked.
-->'''Vaggie:''' Fuck, I'm such a bad liar...
* BattleCouple: She and her girlfriend Charlie fight side-by-side when Adam and
You're the Exterminators come to attack the Hotel.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: "Welcome to Heaven" shows Vaggie and Charlie's first meeting, which came directly after Adam and Lute mutilated Vaggie and left her for dead. Charlie, upon seeing the sorry state Vaggie was in, wasted no time in bandaging her up, which caused Vaggie to fall for her.
* BenevolentBoss: Of a different sort than [[WideEyedIdealist Charlie]], as after her girlfriend, Vaggie is the second-in-command, being the manager. And while Vaggie can be short-tempered, strict, bossy, and judgmental, she is by ''no'' means a cruel person. While she's flawed, she's also proven to be protective, respectful, and loyal person to the Hotel occupants. And before she goes to get vital information from Carmilla Carmine on how to defeat the Exorcist Angels, Vaggie doesn't force the residents to stay and fight, but [[LineInTheSand allows them the choice to leave for their own safety]]; and during this moment, her [[ExpressiveAccessory bow]] droops down in sadness, showing how she's come to care about them during their time together.
* BewareTheQuietOnes: Vaggie is a quiet, emotionally guarded person who has a hard time opening up about her feelings, sometimes even to Charlie. However, she's a skilled spear user, has a sharp mind, and proves to be [[PintSizedPowerhouse stronger than her short height implies]]. Then, it's revealed she was once a ruthless Exorcist Angel, with Adam even referring to her as "one
princess of [his] top girls" and states that Vaggie's kill count was in the ''thousands''. This may mean she has a higher kill count than ''[[TheDreaded Alastor]]''.
* BilingualBonus: She angrily mutters "come mierda malparido" [[note]]Spanish for "eat shit, motherfucker"[[/note]] while in the limousine, and later calls Alastor a "cabrón hijo de perra"[[note]]Spanish for "bastard son of a bitch"[[/note]] right in front of his face.
* BloodKnight: Possibly due to her angelic nature, Vaggie actually enjoys violence and fighting. She was one of Heaven's top exorcists raking up thousands of kills by herself, her idea of a bonding exercise is to take the Hotel patrons out to a battlefield and have them look out for each other, and right before the battle Vaggie admits that she's really excited and hasn't been able to stab anything and really mean it for a long time.
* BodyguardingABadass: As Charlie's self-appointed protector; on paper, Charlie is leagues more powerful than Vaggie ever could be. But since Charlie is too nice to wield that power except in rare circumstances, Vaggie fights on her behalf.
* BoomerangBigot: She's a FallenAngel and has often told Charlie negative things about angels (i.e., they can't be trusted). Given her guilt and self-loathing over her past as an Exorcist and that she was mutilated and abandoned by her superiors for showing a demon child mercy, her attitude is justified.
* BoxingLessonsForSuperman: In "Hello Rosie", Carmilla drives in how the fighting style she and the other Exorcists use leaves themselves wide open if they're facing someone that can hurt them, and drills in some advice on how to overcome these flaws.
* BraidsOfAction: She mentions her long hair gets in the way when she's fighting, so she wears it in a high ponytail when she knows she's heading for battle. She had short hair back when she was an exorcist and first learned how to fight.
* BrokenAngel: After Lute caught her sparing a demon child, she proceeded to gouge out Vaggie's left eye, then tore her wings off her back as Adam took her halo, the two leaving her a bloody mess. Had Charlie not found her, she likely would have bled to death in an alleyway. Losing these traits at least let Vaggie use the cover story she was a Sinner. During her training session with Carmilla in the episode "Hello, Rosie!", she gains a new pair of wings, though she can retract them into her back.
* BrutalHonesty: Whenever Charlie is too nice to properly criticize something, Vaggie is there to give the unfiltered version of Charlie's thoughts. Emphasized in the first episode when Charlie is trying not to badmouth Alastor's rather insulting commercial.
-->'''Charlie:''' We want people to ''want'' to come here, ''this'' makes it look...ummm...
hell.\\
'''Charlie:''' So?\\
'''Vaggie:''' Bad. The word you're looking for is "bad".
Maybe you can command a little more authority?\\
'''Charlie:''' ''(whining)'' But that's so meeeaaan!
* BuffySpeak: When she tries to object to a bar in the Hotel.
-->'''Vaggie:''' This is supposed to be a place that discourages sin! Not some kind of... mouth... brothel... man-cave!
* BullyingADragon: She's brave enough to threaten '''[[TheDreaded Alastor]]''' with
EmotionalPowers: Moments of extreme anger or stress can cause her spear, despite knowing ''exactly'' who he is and the terrible powers he wields. It makes to flare up, accompanied by a transformation into a more sense after the reveal that she's a FallenAngel; as great as Alastor's powers are, Vaggie has no reason to believe he is any more of a threat to her than any other Sinner. [[MuggingTheMonster That in turn means everyone who gets on her nerves in the series is taunting one of the people who go on a yearly unopposed murderous rampage and is mostly kept alive by Vaggie not wanting to look like a monster in front of Charlie]]. Ultimately a [[ZigZaggingTrope zig-zagged example]], as while she certainly had the means to kill someone like Alastor, Carmilla Carmine points out her overall fighting technique is [[AttackAttackAttack rather sloppy]]. Vaggie somewhat overcomes this through [[BoxingLessonsForSuperman Carmilla pointing out these flaws]], but her rematch with Lute proves that she still has a long way to go to overcome this issue.
demonic state.
* ButtMonkey: In the pilot, she watches her girlfriend humiliate herself live on camera, is constantly disrespected by Angel Dust, and gets shoved around and teased by Alastor.
* CaptainSmoothAndSergeantRough: Charlie is the undisputed leader of the Hotel and is able to use her charisma to inspire people to follow along with her vision, Vaggie is her undisputed second-in-command and treats the guests as though she's their drill sergeant, using more practical and aggressive methods to force the guests to play along.
* CategoryTraitor: Vaggie is seen as this by both Lute and Adam, especially the former, for sparing a Sinner child instead of executing him. A brief moment with the other Exterminators in "The Show Must Go On" implies that they also see Vaggie as this.
* CharacterBlog: She runs the hotel's official Instagram account that she shares with Charlie called [[https://instagram.com/hotel_magnement/ hotel_magnement]].
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: A minor case. In the Pilot, she was vocally opposed to Husk running a bar at the hotel, saying their job is to ''discourage'' sin and that alcohol would just be temptation, leaning closer to a DryCrusader. In the series proper, she's a lot more open to the idea, even telling Angel Dust off for flirting with Husk so he could focus on his job, and Husk later stating she regularly drinks there, letting him hear her woes when she succumbs to InVinoVeritas. She was also much more irritable with other demons, not hesitating to yell at them for their behavior (especially Angel Dust who is their sole patron), but in the series, while bossy, she doesn't seem nearly as angry or fed up. Lastly, the pilot treats her as a ButtMonkey, having her be disrespected or ignored by multiple characters, she's taken much more seriously in the show.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Her expression when seeing Charlie and Emily holding hands is a wide-eyed DeathGlare.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: She does a lot to manage her girlfriend's oddities. Her first scene is keeping Charlie focused on a script they prepared together and ''not'' to sing. Then there's her reaction to
EtTuBrute: [[spoiler:The core issue behind Charlie's [[MissingStepsPlan "plan"]] for the hotel, which is supportive but tempered brief falling out with more down-to-earth expectations.
* CombatPragmatist: While fighting Lute inside the hotel, she brings down a section of collapsed wall on top of her.
* TheConfidant: Charlie tells her ''everything'' -- her hopes, dreams, fears, insecurities, and even her favorite deodorant.
* ControlFreak: Her [[https://twitter.com/HazbinHotel/status/992872171272732672 official bio]] describes her as a control freak. In the pilot, this is best displayed when she objects to Alastor adding a bar to the hotel, on the reason that it's supposed to be a place that discourages sin.
* CostumeEvolution: From the pilot to the series, Vaggie's attire is redesigned from a casual white dress and mismatched stockings (one striped, one solid) to a more businesslike red blouse and black skirt with stockings that match.
* CrazyEnoughToWork: In "Scrambled Eggs," her idea of a trust exercise is literally throwing everyone off a roof into an active war zone and making them fight for their lives together. It works.
* CruelMercy: She lets [[ArchEnemy Lute]] live because she thinks that having her live with the shame of being spared by a "miserable failure" like herself is preferable over killing her outright. Of course, this turns out to have been [[NiceJobBreakingItHero a bad idea]] because Lute is too fanatically focused on killing sinners to allow it to slow her down, even tearing off her own arm in order to resume the fight. The death of Adam and the first failure of their exterminations only forces Lute to re-commit their genocidal end goal for another time, and she ends up taking Adam's place in leading the Exorcists, now more focused than ever on making Charlie and the hotel inhabitants pay.
* CuteLittleFangs: While not as prominent as Charlie's, Vaggie's are visible on occasion. (They were especially notable during the Pilot, where [[ScaryTeeth her entire mouth would occasionally seemed to be filled with them]], but that appears to have been a bit of early character design that was changed.) Interestingly, she does not appear to have had them prior to her fall. Though given that Lucifer has a far more [[OneWingedAngel monstrous, inherently demonic form]] despite still being a (fallen) seraphim, it's most likely that prolonged exposure to Hell causes angels to slowly adapt more demonic traits. This is supported by the fact Lucifer was banished since the accidental creation of Hell, while Vaggie was punished and kicked out from Heaven 3 years before the events of the pilot.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Heavily implied, since in "Scrambled Eggs," her idea of building trust among the crew is how she learned trust: serving in combat together. Though it turns out, her own past was more complex. She may or may not have been involved in Hell's many turf wars, but the truth is that she was a former Exorcist partaking in the annual purge when she realized a demon she was hunting down was just a child, and sparing the kid cost her everything. And while not fully explored, Vaggie's sour expressions throughout the performance of "Welcome to Heaven" also implies that even before she was abandoned, she had grown disillusioned with Heaven.
* DashingHispanic: Downplayed, in that
Vaggie is not flamboyant or flashy but actually stoic and quiet. However, she is of Salvadoran descent, speaks fluent Spanish, and has shown to be an expert in using her spear in combat.
* DeadpanSnarker: While she does her best to take thing seriously compared to Charlie, she does crack jokes every now and then at
less the expense of those who have it coming.
* DealWithTheDevil: Downplayed. In the first episode, she makes a deal with Alastor -- he helps make a proper commercial for the Hotel if she doesn't ask him to be involved with televisions anymore. And unlike most of the deals in this universe, their deal isn't a MagicallyBindingContract but a verbal promise.
* DeclarationOfProtection: In "Scrambled Eggs", she sings an entire song about how she'll do whatever it takes to protect Charlie.
-->''When I saw your face\\
You made me feel like a stranger in a brand new place\\
And it felt so good to be understood\\
But there's so much I wished
revelation that I could say\\
So I... I'll be your armor\\
Do whatever it takes, I'll make the mistakes\\
I'll spend my life being your partner''
* DemonOfHumanOrigin: Like all sinners, she was once a human before dying and becoming a demon in Hell. {{Subverted|Trope}} when it's revealed she's actually a FallenAngel, or perhaps just a fired Angel. She used to be one of the Exorcists who came down from Heaven for the extermination, but when she showed a demon mercy, Lute gouged out her eye, and berated her for her actions before tearing her wings off and Adam took her Halo. Stranded in Hell, she had little choice but to pose as a sinner.
* DeviousDaggers: Favors bladed weapons and throws at Angel Dust with remarkable accuracy, to stop him from playing with the window slider in the limo. Unsurprising, given her background as a former Exorcist who has killed thousands of demons using the same sharp weapons before.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Confronts Alastor at spear-point in "Let's Misbehave" and insults him to his face; the Cthulhu part comes with the fact he's [[TheDreaded feared by the denizens of Hell]] and is both a [[SerialKiller mass killer]] and [[TheChessmaster cunning mastermind]]. Vaggie, along with Charlie and Angel, are lucky that he doesn't want to harm them, [[DoNotTauntCthulhu as he makes it clear that he is more than capable of doing so]]. However, with the reveal that Vaggie was once an exorcist, and given that as a rule angels are inherently more powerful than demons, it's very likely that she's strong enough to match Alastor anyway.
* DidYouJustRomanceCthulhu: She's a DemonOfHumanOrigin who's in a relationship with the Devil's daughter. At least on the surface. In truth, she's an exiled Exorcist who was left behind by Lute and Adam after sparing a demon child during an extermination. This slightly closes the power gap between them although Charlie is still far stronger due to being half Seraphim.
* DoesNotLikeMen: She gets accused of this by Angel, and her silent response might be implying some truth to that. This doesn't seem to carry over into the series proper, given she's just as [[GoodIsNotNice guarded, but reasonable]] with men as she is with anyone else. Which is almost impressive considering her [[BadBoss treatment]] at the hands of [[StrawMisogynist the first man]].
* TheDogBitesBack: When she was an exorcist angel, Adam let Lute slash out her eye and tear off her wings for the sin of sparing a demon child, and they left her for dead in Hell. Then, he tried to blackmail her into helping them shut the hotel down, and revealed her past to Charlie to try and ruin their relationship. So when he dies a humiliating and painful death as Niffty stabs him numerous times, Vaggie watches the spectacle with a huge smile and enjoys watching her ex-boss get what's coming to him.
* DrillSergeantNasty: She tends to act like drill sergent whenever she tries to act authoritarian, such as in "Scrambled Eggs" when she forces Angel and Sir Pentious into a turf war battle so they can become FireForgedFriends and in "Dad Beat Dad" when she orders the staff to prepare for Lucifer's arrival. As
she's a former Exorcist angel, who essentially act like soldiers, she likely learnt and more the attitude from her military-like training in Heaven.
* DryCrusader: Implied, since she strongly objects to the hotel serving alcohol, though moreso because it's an activity
fact that, despite all that leads to sin rather than taking issue with it by itself.
* EvenEvilHasStandards:
they've been through, Vaggie was once a ruthless Angel Exorcist, racking up kills didn't seem to trust in the ''thousands''. However, their relationship enough to confide in her. As Charlie vents to Alastor and Rosie, she was unable to kill a Sinner child and allowed him to escape. This would lead have been more than willing to her getting mutilated and kicked out of Heaven. However, her act of moral restraint would also lead to her being rescued and tended to by Charlie, which would lead to their romance and accept Vaggie's official HeelFaceTurn.

In the present, pilot she takes a disliking to Katie Killjoy for being rude and dismissive of her idea, as well as her homophobia. When Katie mocks Charlie's Hotel, Charlie [[PokeThePoodle steals her pen]] and [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch calls her a bitch]].
** She immediately gets a disliking towards Adam after spending a few minutes with him due to him being incredibly obnoxious and egotistical, which quickly becomes outright hatred when Adam gloats about how much he enjoys killing her people and mocks her dreams. She is incredibly disappointed when she sees him at the courtroom in Heaven, and the two have a stare down when Adam once again brags about the coming Extermination. [[spoiler:That said, she still convinces her father to spare him]].
** She's initially friendly to Valentino, even after he [[LecherousLicking lecherously slobbered over her arm]], but when she sees him abusing Angel she immediately starts to go into her OneWingedAngel form to confront him, only stopping when Angel gets between them.
** Susan insulting her singing has her both swear at and [[FlippingTheBird flip off]] the woman.
* EveryoneHasStandards:
** She holds a trust fall exercise with the command that everybody has to catch the person that is up. When Niffty goes up and confesses to killing mother bugs in front of their kin to send a message with no sign of remorse, even Charlie doesn't bother catching her due to how morbid and disturbing her confession was.
** Upon seeing the extent of Valentino's abuse of Angel Dust, Charlie begins to transform into a much more demonic-looking appearance. Also, because she's the Princess of Hell and the daughter of Lucifer,
it's much longer, almost as if it's meant to be a replacement for her wings implied that were torn off. It also helped her disguise herself as a moth-demon Sinner due to resembling.
* ExpressiveAccessory: Her bow curves and sharpens whenever she gets particularly pissed, making it look like a pair of horns. And in rare moments of sadness, her bow will flop down.
* EyepatchOfPower: She wears an eyepatch with a pink X over her left eye; the X shows through her hair at all times, though.
* EyeScream: When she was exiled from Heaven Lute stabbed her in her left eye, tore it out and crushed it.
* FallenAngel: She was exiled from Heaven for showing mercy to a demon child during one of the Exterminations. Lute took out Vaggie's eye, removed her halo, and sliced off her wings before leaving her to die. However, Vaggie never told
Charlie this fact; is [[WillfullyWeak far more powerful than she may outwardly appear]]. As such, Charlie's angry transformation is her resorting to physical force, which is very unusual for her. The only reason it doesn't go any further is because Angel talks down Charlie only finds out in "Welcome and tells her to Heaven" leave the studio before she can do anything.
** While Charlie's main goal is to get sinners to redeem themselves and eventually get into Heaven, even she is disgusted
when she learns that [[spoiler:[[BlackBox nobody in Heaven's leadership actually knows what it takes for a soul to get into Heaven]] and that the exterminations from the Exorsists were actually being kept a secret from the rest of Heaven by Sera and shares a massive TheReasonYouSuckSpeech with Emily towards the leadership of Heaven by telling them that if Hell is forever then the promise of Heaven is a lie and that if angels like Adam spills the beans [[EvilIsPetty just to spite her and Charlie]].
* FashionableAsymmetry: In the pilot, her left stocking has pink stripes while her right one is flat grey, her left glove is fingerless while her right has fingers,
Lute can do horrible actions and her undershirt only has a left shoulder strap. Her design for the series proper does away with this and makes her much more symmetrical.
* {{Flight}}: As
still remain there instead of becoming a FallenAngel, she used to have wings then Heaven is just as bad as Hell.]]
* {{Expy}}: She's based off Disney Princesses
and the ability mainly resembles [[{{WesternAnimation/Tangled}} Rapunzel.]] Both are blonde princesses with chipper and naive personality who offer their enemies redemption. Her hairstyle looks very similar to fly. After an impromptu training lesson Rapunzel's braided up hair from Carmilla, ''WesternAnimation/TangledTheSeries''.
* ExtremelyProtectiveChild: A beaten-up and tired Charlie manages to tap into more of her demonic powers in order to protect her father from a surprise attack from Adam.
* EyeColourChange: She can change her eyes to a more demonic red if she wants to.
* FacialMarkings: When she shifts into a more demonic form, she gains black lines on her face, crossing vertically over her eyes.
* FailedASpotCheck: In "Hello Rosie", [[spoiler:Carmilla figures out that
Vaggie is able a former Exorcist almost immediately, due to regrow them, the "X" over her eye and they now act as RetractableAppendages.
her angelic spear, but Charlie never even suspected the truth until Adam told her.]]
* FanOfTheUnderdog: She is the only member of the hotel to show compassion to Sir Pentious after he is revealed to be TheMole for the Vees. Even after the other residents have warmed to Sir Pentious, it is clear Charlie is the only one of them that actually buys into any of his bluster, being is genuine awe over his commander attire and being a visible ShipperOnDeck between him and Cherri Bomb.
* FatalFlaw: [[WideEyedIdealist Naivety and inexperience]], for all that Charlie's idealism is a source of strength, her eagerness to manifest her dreams can blind her to the difficulties involved. [[MissingStepsPlan She has very little idea of how to actually rehabilitate and redeem sinners, which often leads to her plans being poorly conceived]], and her own IncorruptiblePurePureness can leave her blindsided by how meanspirited or genuinely malicious others can be.
* TheFettered: Implied. She holds back in her fight with Katie Killjoy, and lets a sketchy demon like Alastor help with the hotel because doing so otherwise would go against her belief that everyone deserves a chance to be redeemed. The season one finale really shows off her unwillingness to harm people, carrying a shield into battle and using sparkles and magic fireworks to attack; even fighting Adam, she's unable to fully tap into her powers.
* FlorenceNightingaleEffect: Charlie taking in and helping patching up a badly wounded Vaggie heal from after an Extermination caused immediate sparks to fly between the two.
* GenderBlenderName: A downplayed version. Her full name is "Charlotte" but she [[DoNotCallMePaul doesn't like to be called that]] and prefers to go by the genderneutral "Charlie".
* GenkiGirl: She's a peppy and enthusiastic demon princess who's all fired up about the idea of rehabilitating demons and sending them to Heaven. Sometimes aggressively so.
-->'''Charlie:''' Omigosh, welcome to the Happy Hotel! You are going to ''[[WingdingEyes LOVE IT HERE!!]]''
* GenreRefugee: As stated above, Charlie's basically a Franchise/DisneyPrincess ruling over the CrapsackWorld of Hell. Not that
her wounds may not be title means much when the denizens only give her a modicum of respect and attention.
* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: Part of the
reason Vaggie fell for her, but it certainly formed a solid bedrock to build upon.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Her spear

According to [[https://twitter.com/VivziePop/status/1048698954030825472 a tweet]] and [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=VpfxbK6zbjg&t=8265 a livestream]], they were given to Charlie when she was a little girl and as such the audience cute little forms they normally assume are meant to invoke plush toys. It's unclear if this means that they're toys that have been brought to life or just demons that look like plushies.
* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: She has [[LongHairIsFeminine long hair]] and
the entire time, sweet personality of a typical PrincessClassic, but she generally wears suits and Carmilla prefers to go by the gender-neutral (but typically more masculine) name "Charlie" over her full name of Charlotte.
* GoodIsNotDumb: Charlie is well aware that Alastor is, in her own words, "sketchy as fuck", and outright refuses to make any deals with him. She takes him on as a patron because of her principle that every demon deserves a chance to redeem themselves. She
even says [[PaperThinDisguise admits that she knows how evil Alastor is and that he most likely doesn't want to change. It shows that even though she believes that redemption for demons is possible, she also knows that not all of them want to change for the better -- and all she can do is try. Additionally, as misplaced as her optimism can be, she's [[HandshakeRefusal not dumb enough to accept]] a HandshakeOfDoom for what was clearly a mystically binding [[DealWithTheDevil bargain]] from a CardCarryingVillain like Alastor. Justified, considering her dad is the ''actual'' devil and he explicitly taught her not to make those kinds of deals, i.e. "You don't take shit from other demons".
* GoodIsNotSoft: Charlie may be sweet, but she's no pushover. If she shares only one thing in common with her father,
it's very obvious]]. Further, Vaggie regularly slips and refers to Sinners and Hell as ''Charlie's'' people and realm, suggesting she sees herself as distinct from them.
* FormerBigot: It's revealed later on
that Vaggie used to be an Exorcist Angel, and thus, initially held the same "Sinners are all bad and must be executed" views as her former fellow companions. After sparing a demon child, she was left mutilated and abandoned by her superiors before being found and rescued by Charlie. In the present, Vaggie harbors no prejudice towards Sinners, and any hatred is for a specific few for justified reasons. [[ZigZaggingTrope That being said]], she [[BoomerangBigot sure hates angels now]].
* FriendlessBackground: Faustisse revealed that outside of Charlie
she doesn't have any friends. This might be because most of take shit from other demons. When Katie Killjoy takes things too far, Charlie insults her friends are in Heaven.
* GoblinFace: Her face
back and gets comically exaggerated wrinkles whenever into a full on brawl with her.
* GuiltComplex: Charlie has a bad habit of blaming herself for circumstances far beyond her control, then working hard to make up for it. Her opening verse in the song "Finale" exemplifies this, as she blames herself for the Hotel's [[spoiler:destruction and Sir Pentious's death]] by failing to convince Heaven redemption is possible, despite the fact that Sera, Adam, and Lute had ''no intention'' of entertaining her idea, and [[spoiler:Sir Pentious chose to [[HeroicSacrifice give his life to protect his friends.]]]] It takes Lucifer leading the others in reminding Charlie [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre of all

* GoodIsNotNice: Vaggie is determined

* GratuitousSpanish: She [[ForeignCussWord swears in Spanish]] when she confronts Alastor, referring to him as "Cabrón hijo de perra".[[note]]Spanish for "Bastard son of a bitch".[[/note]]
* GrowingWings: In "Hello Rosie", Vaggie manages to regrow the wings that Lute had ripped off of her.
HavingABlast: "The Show Must Go On" shows has Charlie creating fireworks by pointing into the air and conjuring the fireworks out of thin air. These fireworks are also pretty and sparkly, to reflect how much of a PluckyGirl she is, even in combat.
* HeroProtagonist: She is the show's main character and the plot revolves around her goal of redeeming sinners to protect them from the sadistic and genocidal Adam and his Exorcists.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Has blonde hair and genuinely cares about her people.
* HeavenSeeker: Charlie doesn't seem to want to go to Heaven herself, but her goal is to redeem sinners and get them a place there, as a solution to the overpopulation problem.
* HeroicBSOD:
** After her attempts to go straight to the top to plead her plan for the redemption of Sinners before Heavenly Court just results in Adam deciding to target the Hotel directly out of spite, and the revelation
that she can apparently let them out and retract them at will, though she spends most of [[spoiler:Vaggie has kept the time with them hidden.

By the time of the series, while her temper is still there, breaks down over everything she's considerably more mellow.

* HeelFaceTurn: In the past she was one HiddenDepths: According to Husk's Instagram, she's good at playing poker.
* HopeBringer: One
of the most bloodthirsty and ruthless Exorcists under Adam's command. But after she became a FallenAngel for sparing a demon child instead of killing them, and met Charlie shortly after, she goes on great lengths to support Charlie's dream.

[[spoiler:And ultimately become the first Redeemed Sinner when he selflessly lays down his life for his new friends.]]
** By opening her heart and explaining how the childhood stories her father would tell her taught her that dreams are worth fighting for, she manages to inspire Lucifer himself in turn and reignite his lost dreams of building a better future.
** By the end of the first Season Charlie has become this for

* HornedHumanoid: Her more demonic form has a pair of long horns on
her angelic trappings stripped head.
* HorrifyingTheHorror: While singing "Inside of Every Demon is a Rainbow", Charlie's face suddenly shifts into a demonic-looking one with glowing eyes and horns bursting through her skin, which causes onlooking demons to back away with looks of shock. When the song is over, Katie is leaning as far
away from her (and an eye), subsequently left for dead as she can (Charlie herself, in turn, [[OhCrap freaks out]] when [[TheDreaded Alastor]] comes knocking), though Charlie is far more disturbed about Alastor's demeanor and stranded in Hell, where she was nursed back to health by Charlie, falling for her in the process.
* HidingBehindYourBangs: She's a guarded woman whose bangs spill over the left side of her head, which covers her missing eye.
* HidingYourHeritage: Justified. Vaggie was once an Exorcist Angel but was left near death by Lute and Adam because she spared a demon child. Given
personality than his actual power level as Charlie is well aware that she's from a group of people who perform yearly exterminations in Hell, she had to hide her true origins for her own safety. Also, she fell in love with the Princess of Hell, so not wanting to hurt her girlfriend was also a huge factor.
* HolyHalo: She used to have one as an Exorcist angel, but Lute ripped it off along with her eye and wings while punishing her for sparing a demon child.
* HonestAdvisor: To Charlie, as she is not only the manager of the Hotel but also the former's girlfriend and main confidant. Vaggie will always be gently but firmly honest with Charlie about what may be best for them and the Hotel. To everyone else, Vaggie will still be direct but [[BrutalHonesty
far more brutal]] in manner, especially if they are mocking to her or Charlie.

* HonorBeforeReason: She spares Lute out of a desire to inflict CruelMercy upon her, which leaves Lute incapacitated for all about a minute before the exorcist is immediately back HotAsHell: While more on the attack, preventing her from helping Charlie when fighting Adam.
* HotConsort: Vaggie
beautiful side rather than seductive, Charlie's appearance is that of a regular Sinner in a committed slim, tall, and loving relationship beautiful young woman with the Princess of Hell. Even after TheReveal platinum blonde hair and round eyes. It is even creepily mentioned in universe by Adam as he calls her "Lilith's little hottie" showing that the former is a FallenAngel doesn't change her from this trope. In fact, even with he finds her eye gouged out, Charlie still became romantically flustered when the former smiled at her.

* HumanoidAbomination: She's among the most human-looking demons demon in hell, but she's still a demon and the Princess of Hell. This She lets her more demonic side slip through in a few brief moments of her "Inside of Every Demon is despite a Rainbow" song. Plus she has a snout rather than a normal nose.
* HumansAreSpecial: [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=09-ribPwlAQ According to a stream]] (1:09:52) she sees something magical about humans (despite never
actually meeting a living one) due to the fact that they have the capacity to go to Heaven or Hell.
* HumbleHero: Though naive, occasionally insensitive and starts off mistaking
being humble for being something of a FallenAngel.
* HunterOfHerOwnKind: When it's discovered that Exorcist Angels ''can'' be injured, despite initial shock at
doormat to other people, Charlie is reluctant to use the reveal, Vaggie doesn't hesitate powers of her station as Princess of Hell and very much willing to help with getting the information from Carmilla Carmine under admit fault if she feels she's done something wrong. This is actually one of Charlie's orders. During the party before the fight against the Exorcists, Vaggie tells primary obstacles; because Charlie she's is so modest and refuses to exercise her powers, none of the [[SocialDarwinist Sinners]] actually happy that she's going to stab something respect her and for instead regard her as a laughing stock, which combined with the right reasons. And during the battle, Vaggie doesn't hold back against killing them, unlike [[ApologeticAttacker Charlie]].
* HypercompetentSidekick: Vaggie is the undisputed [[NumberTwo second-in-command]] at
Sinners seeing themselves as BeyondRedemption, leaves the Hazbin Hotel and acts as struggling to even get off the ground. When Vaggie convinces her to start using her position more serious, grounded counterpart to help her clients, Charlie's flighty, sometimes overly idealistic standings. She also serves inexperience due to this trope causes her to overcompensate in front of Valentino, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero leading to Angel Dust's day getting worse.]]
%%* InformedFlaw: While some characters such
as being a honest consultant to Alastor and Husk make comments about Charlie in times the latter is need having "daddy issues", none of help.
* IHatePastMe: It's implied, especially by some of the lines in "Out For Love", that Vaggie hates and regrets her past as an Exorcist.
* InformedAttribute: She's stated to be fashioned after a Moth, but aside from her hair vaguely resembling folded up Moth wings, there's nothing suggesting such like the more obvious {{animal motif}}s other Sinners have. Becomes {{justified|Trope}} with the reveal she's not a Sinner at all, but an Angel, her hair originally being much shorter and similar to Lute's, the claim of her being a Moth serving to go with her cover story she's a Sinner, and a bit of foreshadowing to the idea her wings were torn off, as "ripping the wings off a moth" is a term associated with torturing someone like she was.
* InsecureLoveInterest: "Scrambled Eggs" shows that she feels unworthy of being
Charlie's girlfriend and thinks that if she can't help her, behavior around her existence father or other characters is meaningless. Made even more apparent in "Welcome To Heaven" with TheReveal that Vaggie is a former Exorcist who had a change indicative of heart and wound up being left for dead by Lute and Adam. Her dedication this. In "Dad Beat Dad", Lucifer was shown to have been a loving father to Charlie comes from growing up, and in the modern day, Lucifer is still loving, but somewhat distant.
* InnocentlyInsensitive:
** When trying to convince Angel to become
her guilt over first patron in the prequel comic, she puts her foot in her mouth when she tells Angel he looks like "someone who regrets his life choices".
** She also failed to consider that insulting potential clients in the same breath as advertising the Hotel probably wouldn't make them more interested in the idea.
** In episode 2, she praises Sir Pentious's progress in front of Angel despite the latter
being an Exorcist mixed with her guilt over having never told Charlie her true identity.
at the Hotel for longer. Not helping is the fact that she had him, a struggling drug addict, play a drug dealer in a childish DrugsAreBad skit, completely oblivious to why that would bug Angel Dust.
* InterspeciesRomance: With Charlie. Vaggie. While the former Charlie is half-Seraphim Angel and half demon, her girlfriend is a Sinner. [[spoiler:It is still in play even with the reveal that Vaggie turns out to be is actually a FallenAngel.FallenAngel]].



** Despite angels being often thought of as kindly, noble figures, Vaggie became a FallenAngel because she showed mercy to a Sinner child.
** She happens to be the first person who tried to redeem herself with Charlie's help, and she's a literal FallenAngel.
** Vaggie was once a ruthless Exorcist Angel, with Adam implying she has murdered ''thousands'' of Sinners. Now, she is protective towards the Sinner occupants of the Hotel meant to redeem them and is also the steadfast, loyal girlfriend NumberTwo to the Princess of Hell.
* ItsPersonalWithTheDragon: Lute acts as Vaggie's ArchEnemy, being the one who sliced out her eye and ripped off her wings.
* ItWasWithYouAllAlong: In "Hello Rosie", Vaggie goes to Carmilla to find the secret of killing Exorcists, only for Carmilla to tell her that angelic steel, like her spear, is the key. Vaggie is surprised to find out that it's that simple instead of some secret weapon that Carmilla, Hell's top arms dealer, came up with, wondering [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe how no one else had figured it out if it's really that simple]].
* JerkassHasAPoint:
** In the pilot, Vaggie's near-murderous anger at Angel Dust is understandable given how his actions completely ruined Charlie's promotion of the Happy Hotel.
** Her extreme distrust of Alastor is ''well'' within reason given how the Overlord is TheDreaded who also admits to ''not'' wanting to see the Hotel succeed. Charlie agrees with her during a private chat, but she forces herself to work with him to make sure the Hotel is a success.
** While justifiably annoyed with Alastor's taunts and mocking, Vaggie makes an accurate note towards the Overlord -- that if he doesn't actually help get the Hotel more notoriety than Sinners won't want to check in and possibly fail at being redeemed, meaning his whole goal of wanting to be entertained by their supposed futile efforts won't happen. This actually gets to Alastor, allowing him to help her out.
** Vaggie's method of getting the Hotel residents to bond is via surviving a turf war is, as Charlie points out, hilariously over-the-top, the former's seemingly crazy idea actually works. When Vaggie returns to the Hotel, she is delightfully surprised that the once distrustful, fighting occupants are now getting along.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Of a different sort than Angel Dust, and mostly justified. She seems to genuinely be a decent person, and she has a nice, stable relationship with her girlfriend Charlie. The fact that she's grumpy and hostile towards other demons is down to the fact that they're all bastards who deliberately antagonize her and her girlfriend. In the series proper, Vaggie's hot temperedness is downplayed, and while still bossy and judgmental, she shows a softer side to the other Hotel occupants.
* KarmicJackpot: Vaggie was once a ruthless and bloodthirsty Exorcist Angel but couldn't bring herself to kill a Sinner child and let him escape. However, her superiors discovered her act and punished her for it. She would've most likely died of her wounds if she hadn't been found and nurtured by Charlie on that same night. While most of her past as an Exorcist is still a mystery and Vaggie sparing the Sinner child cost her place in Heaven, it's implied she was disillusioned with her old home before she had been abandoned. Even so, with her act of mercy, Vaggie would start a happily committed relationship with Charlie, one of the gentlest and kindest people in all of Hell. And through helping Charlie with the Hotel, Vaggie would also gain genuine friends who would protect and care for her.
* KnightInSourArmor: Vaggie may be skeptical and have a sour disposition, but she's determined to help Charlie redeem Sinners.
* LadyAndKnight: A same-sex variant, Vaggie is the White Knight to Charlie's Bright Lady. Best illustrated in the song "Whatever it Takes", where Vaggie [[DeclarationOfProtection declares]] she'll be Charlie's "armor".
* TheLancer: She's the partner and closest ally of Charlie, who's the main heroine of the story, usually trying to be a voice of reason to counterbalance Charlie's idealism and being ''way'' more willing to resort to violence in a situation than her.
* LeftForDead: After being caught sparing a Sinner child, Lute mutilates Vaggie and the former (with Adam) leave her to presumably die from her wounds.
* LetMeAtHim: During Alastor's VillainSong, Angel can be seen holding back an enraged Vaggie from attacking him.
* LiarRevealed: Downplayed to "Omitting the Truth Revealed", but Vaggie is desperate to make sure Charlie never finds out her status as a FallenAngel, to the point that she [[AintTooProudToBeg begs Adam to not tell her]], and her reaction to Charlie's horror and devastation to Vaggie's past as a former Exorcist is clear regret. Where it is downplayed is that the others' reactions are pretty blasé besides Charlie, who herself seems more hurt and distant because Vaggie felt she couldn't tell her the truth in the first place. This also deconstructed by the fact that the only reason why she hid her true origins to Charlie is because she was ashamed of being the same thing that mercilessly slaughtered thousands of Sinners, and because at this point knowing the truth wouldn't matter anyway, as in her 3 years old relationship with Charlie, Vaggie proved to be the most loyal supporter of the latter's dream to redeem damned souls and a sweet girlfriend.
* LightIsGood: She is actually a fallen angel who wants to try her best redeem sinners to support her girlfriend's dreams.
* LikeParentLikeSpouse: Vaggie has a number of similarities to her girlfriend's father, Lucifer Morningstar. The biggest is that they're both {{fallen angel}}s -- and they're the only two known instances of such in the setting, although Charlie wasn't aware of this for a long time -- and thematically, both of them were cast out of Heaven for going against what was expected of them (Vaggie refusing to kill a Sinner child, Lucifer offering Free Will to humanity). Besides that, both of them are very insecure about themselves, including how they can be a good girlfriend/father to Charlie but are still highly protective and loving of the Princess; and while Vaggie fully supports her girlfriend's goals, she also has a similar cynicism regarding both Sinners and Heaven. Other similarities between the duo are both being way [[PintSizedPowerhouse stronger than their short height implies]], having a [[BloodKnight liking for battle]], and [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer not being remembered fondly by their respective former associates]] in Heaven (the Exorcists for Vaggie, the other Seraphim for Lucifer). They also both share a duet with Charlie expressing how important she is to them, with Vaggie's being a reprise of Lucifer's.
* LineInTheSand: After Adam announces his plans to attack the Hotel first and foremost next Extermination, Vaggie notes to the other residents that they didn't sign up for a war and she understands if they choose now to leave. When she and Charlie return however, [[TrueCompanions they are all still there baricading the Hotel ready for the Exorcists.]]
* LipstickLesbian: Very feminine presenting and confirmed as a lesbian.
* LoveRedeems: Vaggie was once a ruthless Exorcist Angel before beng abandoned by her superiors for showing mercy towards a Sinner child. Afterwards, she was found and nursed back to health by her future girlfriend, Charlie. And Vaggie implies in the "More Than Anything" reprise that it was the friendship (and eventual) romantic love she and the Princess have for each other, helped further the former's redemption.
* MasculineFeminineGayCouple: PlayedWith in regard to her relationship with Charlie. Vaggie dresses more feminine than Charlie, but she acts in a more stereotypically masculine manner. She's grumpy and closed off, and at the same time very brave and protective of her girlfriend.
* MeaningfulRename: Downplayed. When she was an Exorcist, Adam gave her, her name; however, the pronunciation was a soft "g". In the present, she still uses the name but with a hard "g" sound.
* MsExposition: Tells Angel Dust about who the Radio Demon is when he turns out to be clueless.
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Vaggie is a genuinely good person and may be the only one among Sinners, who are described to be inherently irredeemable. Aside from being [[MurderIsTheBestSolution quick to point weapons at people]] despite the Hotel's principles of trust and forgiveness, and her possible military background, her presence in Hell is a mystery. As it turns out, Vaggie is a genuinely good person... among the ''Exorcists'', who are shown to be inherently psychopathic, murderous assholes. It turns out because she's ''not'' [[MurderIsTheBestSolution a complete murder freak]] and chose to spare a demon child, she was mutilated and exiled to Hell for aiding the enemy. As a result, she tries to warn Charlie that the Exorcists can't be trusted, calling them bloodthirsty and deranged.
* MysteriousPast: We know little of her past prior to the hotel, but her DrillSergeantNasty attitude in "Scrambled Eggs" and the way she talks about it implies that she was in some kind of military at some point. "Welcome to Heaven" reveals that she's a FallenAngel, a former Exorcist that Adam and Lute kicked out and left for dead because she spared a demon child, but aside from her being one of Adam's top soldiers nothing about her past is revealed.
* NeatFreak: According to Viv in [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=MqGEHNy3Wxo&t=6250 a livestream]], Vaggie is kind of a neat freak.
* NighInvulnerable: As a former Exorcist, Vaggie is nearly impossible to harm by any means except Angelic weaponry. Carmilla notes that this has given her a habit of fighting in a way that exposes herself, since she's accustomed to not needing to bother with defense.
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: The only reason Vaggie is no longer an Exorcist is due to [[WouldntHurtAChild sparing a demon child]]. This cost her [[EyeScream an eye]] and her wings, and she was left to die.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Downplayed in both cases.
** Vaggie's Exorcist wings look very similar to her former associates but if one were to look [[https://phoenixlionme.tumblr.com/post/744407356884074496 closely]], she has one defining feature separating her from them -- Vaggie was the only Exorcist with one stripe on her wings, instead of two. And even after she regrows a new pair, she still has the one stripe. Why she only had one stripe as opposed to two is currently unknown.
** During the annual Exterminations, Exorcist Angels were known to sport sadistic smiles when killing the Sinners. However, even while wearing her mask, Vaggie doesn't smile during the genocide but rather a frowning, angry expression.

* ItsPersonalWithTheDragon: Lute acts as Vaggie's ArchEnemy, being the
annual exterminations. [[spoiler:Her biggest supporter, partner, and love is Vaggie, a FallenAngel who was once an Exorcist; and, according to Adam, one who sliced out her eye and ripped off her wings.
* ItWasWithYouAllAlong: In "Hello Rosie", Vaggie goes to Carmilla to find the secret of killing Exorcists, only for Carmilla to tell her that angelic steel, like her spear, is the key. Vaggie is surprised to find out that it's that simple instead of some secret weapon that Carmilla, Hell's top arms dealer, came up with, wondering [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe how no one else had figured it out if it's really that simple]].

** In the pilot, Vaggie's near-murderous anger at Angel Dust is understandable given how his actions completely ruined Charlie's promotion

** Her extreme distrust rendition of Alastor is ''well'' within reason given how the Overlord is TheDreaded who "I'm Always Chasing Rainbows", which also admits to ''not'' wanting to see opens the Hotel succeed. series. After losing more of her people to the yearly extermination, Charlie agrees with sings about her during pursuit of happiness and salvation for the damned citizens of Hell, even if it seems like a private chat, but distant pipe dream.
** "Happy Day In Hell" in the first episode where
she forces herself to work with him to make sure sings about how she will convince the Hotel is a success.
** While justifiably annoyed with Alastor's taunts
angels to accept her plan and mocking, Vaggie makes an accurate note towards the Overlord -- that if he doesn't actually help get the Hotel more notoriety than Sinners won't want to check in and possibly fail at being redeemed, meaning his whole goal of wanting to be entertained by stop their supposed futile efforts won't happen. This actually gets to Alastor, allowing him to help her out.
** Vaggie's method of getting the Hotel residents to bond is via surviving a turf war is, as Charlie points out, hilariously over-the-top, the former's seemingly crazy idea actually works. When Vaggie returns to the Hotel, she is delightfully surprised that the once distrustful, fighting occupants are now getting along.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Of a different sort than Angel Dust, and mostly justified. She seems to genuinely be a decent person, and she has a nice, stable relationship with her girlfriend Charlie. The fact that she's grumpy and hostile towards other demons is down to the fact that they're all bastards who deliberately antagonize her and her girlfriend. In the series proper, Vaggie's hot temperedness is downplayed, and while still bossy and judgmental, she shows a softer side to the other Hotel occupants.
purges.
* KarmicJackpot: Vaggie She is nothing but kind and forgiving to Sir Pentious, even after the discovery he was once a ruthless mole for the Vees. Moved by having someone genuinely supportive of him, Sir Pentious is motivated to genuinely change for the better. Ultimately, not only was Pentious' presence in the hotel pivotal to discovering how to fight off the Exorcists, but [[spoiler:in the Season One finale, he effectively commands and bloodthirsty Exorcist Angel but couldn't bring herself to kill a Sinner child weaponises the Hotel in their war against the Exorcists, and let his HeroicSacrifice gets him escape. However, her superiors discovered her act redeemed and punished her for it. She would've most likely died of her wounds if she hadn't been found and nurtured by Charlie on sent to heaven as undesputed proof at last that same night. While most of her past as an Exorcist is still a mystery and Vaggie sparing the Sinner child cost her place in Heaven, it's implied she was disillusioned with her old home before she had been abandoned. Even so, with her act of mercy, Vaggie would start a happily committed relationship with Charlie, one of the gentlest and kindest people in all of Hell. And through helping Charlie with the Hotel, Vaggie would also gain genuine friends who would protect and care for her.
* KnightInSourArmor: Vaggie may be skeptical and have a sour disposition, but she's determined to help Charlie redeem Sinners.
* LadyAndKnight: A same-sex variant, Vaggie is the White Knight to
Charlie's Bright Lady. Best illustrated in the song "Whatever it Takes", where Vaggie [[DeclarationOfProtection declares]] she'll be Charlie's "armor".
* TheLancer: She's the partner and closest ally of Charlie, who's the main heroine of the story, usually trying to be a voice of reason to counterbalance Charlie's idealism and being ''way'' more willing to resort to violence in a situation than her.
* LeftForDead: After being caught sparing a Sinner child, Lute mutilates Vaggie and the former (with Adam) leave her to presumably die from her wounds.
* LetMeAtHim: During Alastor's VillainSong, Angel can be seen holding back an enraged Vaggie from attacking him.
* LiarRevealed: Downplayed to "Omitting the Truth Revealed", but Vaggie is desperate to make sure Charlie never finds out her status as a FallenAngel, to the point that she [[AintTooProudToBeg begs Adam to not tell her]], and her reaction to Charlie's horror and devastation to Vaggie's past as a former Exorcist is clear regret. Where it is downplayed is that the others' reactions are pretty blasé besides Charlie, who herself seems more hurt and distant because Vaggie felt she couldn't tell her the truth in the first place. This also deconstructed by the fact that the only reason why she hid her true origins to Charlie is because she was ashamed of being the same thing that mercilessly slaughtered thousands of Sinners, and because at this point knowing the truth wouldn't matter anyway, as in her 3 years old relationship with Charlie, Vaggie proved to be the most loyal supporter of the latter's dream to redeem damned souls and a sweet girlfriend.
* LightIsGood: She is actually a fallen angel who wants to try her best redeem sinners to support her girlfriend's dreams.
* LikeParentLikeSpouse: Vaggie has a number of similarities to her girlfriend's father, Lucifer Morningstar. The biggest is that they're both {{fallen angel}}s -- and they're the only two known instances of such in the setting, although Charlie wasn't aware of this for a long time -- and thematically, both of them were cast out of Heaven for going against what was expected of them (Vaggie refusing to kill a Sinner child, Lucifer offering Free Will to humanity). Besides that, both of them are very insecure about themselves, including how they can be a good girlfriend/father to Charlie but are still highly protective and loving of the Princess; and while Vaggie fully supports her girlfriend's goals, she also has a similar cynicism regarding both Sinners and Heaven. Other similarities between the duo are both being way [[PintSizedPowerhouse stronger than their short height implies]], having a [[BloodKnight liking for battle]], and [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer not being remembered fondly by their respective former associates]] in Heaven (the Exorcists for Vaggie, the other Seraphim for Lucifer). They also both share a duet with Charlie expressing how important she is to them, with Vaggie's being a reprise of Lucifer's.
* LineInTheSand: After Adam announces his plans to attack the Hotel first and foremost next Extermination, Vaggie notes to the other residents that they didn't sign up for a war and she understands if they choose now to leave. When she and Charlie return however, [[TrueCompanions they are all still there baricading the Hotel ready for the Exorcists.
idea works.]]
* LadyAndKnight: A same-sex variant, Charlie is the Bright Lady to Vaggie's White Knight. Best illustrated in the song "Whatever it Takes", where Vaggie [[DeclarationOfProtection declares]] she'll be Charlie's "armor".
* LadyInAPowerSuit: The Princess of Hell wears some tasteful and snazzy tuxedos.
* LetsGetDangerous: She spends much of the fight in the season 1 finale being an ApologeticAttacker or otherwise not harming the angels. [[spoiler:Once Sir Pentious is vaporized by Adam, she goes into her full Demon Mode and charges at him, putting up a decent fight.]]
* LightEmUp: During the fight to defend the Hotel she attacks using [[FatalFireworks firework-like]] blasts of light.
* LightIsGood: She has chalk-white skin and also happens to be half-angel (a fallen angel of course but an angel no less) and is a kind princess who is desperate to save her subjects from extermination.
* LikeParentLikeChild:
** It's subtle, but Charlie's situation is the mirror inverse of her father's. If we're going by most versions, Lucifer was born an angel in Heaven, tired of the endless goodness and purity, and convinced other angels to rebel and eventually got kicked out of Heaven for Hell. Charlie was born a demon in Hell, is dismayed by the endless violence and destruction, and is encouraging other demons to rebel against the BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad status quo and reform enough to leave Hell for Heaven. [[invoked]][[WordofGod Vivziepop]] even revealed that Charlie actually takes very much after her father.
** The prologue states that originally, Lucifer was an optimist and a dreamer who refused to accept the oppressed status quo for humans. That's pretty much Charlie to a T as well (with sinners instead of humans, although the former are a subset of the latter anyways).
** This gets lampshaded in "Dad Beat Dad" with Lucifer and Charlie's duet noting that the apple didn't fall far.
** "Welcome to Heaven" reveals that, just like her mother, [[spoiler:she fell in love with a FallenAngel, albeit unwittingly.]]
* LipstickLesbian: Very feminine presenting She's bisexual and confirmed as has a lesbian.
* LoveRedeems: Vaggie was once a ruthless Exorcist Angel before beng abandoned by her superiors for showing mercy towards a Sinner child. Afterwards, she was found and nursed back to health by her future
girlfriend, Charlie. And but aside from her penchant for suits over dresses, she's more femme than masculine in her presentation.
* LittleBitBeastly: While for the most part she's humanoid, she does have a couple inhuman traits, even outside of the horns she normally keeps concealed. She has fangs, her nose more resembles a dog's, making it look like she has a muzzle of sorts when viewed in profile, and, while normally hidden by her shoes, she has hooves in lieu of human feet. While her legs bend like humans', [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/hazbinhotel/images/8/87/Charlie_Morningstar_render.png their shape]] (especially when wearing her suit trousers) is sometimes subtly suggestive of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digitigrade#/media/File:Les_différents_types_de_locomotions_chez_les_amniotes.png those of unguligrade animals,]] particularly around the upper calves.
* LoveAtFirstSight: Downplayed. It's more of "Developed Romantic Feelings at First Sight". When Charlie rescued and tended to an injured Vaggie, the former became shy and even romantically flustered, implying her feelings for
Vaggie implies in the "More Than Anything" reprise started at that it was point.
* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: In "The Show Must Go On", Charlie is initially seen fighting with a shield that Seraphim and apple motifs, which she uses both for offense and defense.
* MagicKnight: Her preferred fighting style is wielding a weapon in one hand and casting magic with
the friendship other. Her choice of weapon varies between a shield and trident depending on how serious she is about causing harm.
* MagicalGirlWarrior: She enters her full demon form by spinning in a column of fire and summoning her trident seemingly from thin air, evoking this trope.
* {{Manchild}}: Charlie is hundreds or thousands of years old
(and eventual) romantic love even considering her immortality has the physical age of a young adult); she is the only person in Hell who acknowledges that a yearly purge of its citizens is a problem and wants to fix it. She also has a hyperactive, bubbly, and even childish personality, with a lot more enthusiasm than preplanned steps. She presents her plans to Heaven and Hell with pictures drawn in ''crayon'' and communicates her ideas via reality-warping musical numbers. When she's in Heaven to pitch her plans before the Princess have for each other, helped further Heavenly Court, she acts like a tourist, eager to visit Heaven's petting zoo and try Rainbow Sprinkles on ice cream. When attempting to get the former's redemption.
Habin Hotel guests and employees to bond through trust exercises, she eagerly wants to go first, like a kindergartener in show-and-tell.
-->'''Vaggie:''' Who wants to go first?\\
'''Charlie:''' Ooh! Ooh! [=MeMeMe=]! Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me!
* MarkedChange: When she shifts into a more demonic form, she gains black lines on her face, crossing vertically over her eyes.
* MasculineFeminineGayCouple: PlayedWith in regard regards to her relationship with Charlie. Vaggie Vaggie. Charlie dresses androgynously, but her personality is more feminine than Charlie, but she acts in a stereotypically feminine. Vaggie on the other hand, presents more feminine, but has more of stereotypically masculine manner. She's grumpy personality.
* MeaningfulName:
** Beyond being a obvious reference to her father, "Morningstar" can also refer to a light visible on dark nights, that was once used as a guide, reflecting Charlie's desire to show Sinners a better path then just reveling in their vices.
** Her first name is Charlie
and closed off, she lives down in Hell, which is pretty heavily associated with fire and burning, or in other words, charring.
** Her full first name is Charlotte, which is derived from an Old English Word meaning "Free Man", pretty fitting for the daughter of the Angel and Woman who defied their original roles in the cosmic order. It is also a name associated with royalty, as many queens and princesses throughout history have been named Charlotte.
* MessianicArchetype: And not just in the [[AntiAntiChrist obvious]] [[RedemptionEarnsLife ways]] either. Much like [[UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}} a certain other Messiah]], she's the child of a major Abrahamic figure who wants to make life better for people but faces ridicule and scorn from society (particularly from people like Katie) for her radical idealism. Her song "It Starts With Sorry" has a part where she defends Sir Pentious from execution on grounds that he wasn't the only one who's sinned, similar to when Jesus did so for an adulteress. The song ends with Charlie showing how Sir Pentious' sins could be wiped away with repentance, which was one of Jesus' primary teachings. Jesus' goal was to make it so the sinners of Earth could get into heaven just as Charlie's was to get the sinners of Hell into it, [[spoiler:and she succeeded.]]
* MisplacedKindergartenTeacher: [[invoked]] WordOfGod states that Charlie, though well-intentioned, views her charges
at the same time very brave hotel as wayward children and protective has little idea of what effective criminal rehabilitation actually involves. Her idea of teaching sinners to be good involves doing simple trust building exercises like trust falls and having them act out skits where they refuse to buy drugs from a dealer, and instead go home to study. [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome Doing this for five months does nothing to actually redeem the sinners]], making Charlie realize that her girlfriend.
* MeaningfulRename: Downplayed. When
way of doing things wouldn't actually work like she was an Exorcist, Adam gave her, her name; however, the pronunciation was a soft "g". In the present, she still uses the name but with a hard "g" sound.
* MsExposition: Tells
hoped. However, both Angel Dust about who and Sir Pentious actually do change for the Radio better during their time at the hotel, with [[spoiler:Pentious even going to Heaven in the season one finale as a result.]] Despite Charlie's actual teaching methods being flimsy, she is still effective as a MoralityPet and [[PositiveFriendInfluence building a supportive environment within the Hotel]].
* MissingStepsPlan:
** She clearly has no idea how she's going to get her plan to work, even though she's pouring her heart into it. A FreezeFrameBonus of her notes during the pilot episode shows that what plan she has is [[CloudCuckooLander weird, to say the least]].
--->4. Unicorn Kisses\\
5. Dolphin High Fives?\\
6. Sing Showtunes!!! = HappyEnding!!
** Shown again during her song "Inside of Every
Demon is a Rainbow", where she seems to just think getting rid of bad temptations is all you have to do; for example, throwing an addict's drugs into a fire in front of him.
* ModestRoyalty: Despite being the princess of Hell, she seemingly favors [[{{Bifauxnen}} tasteful suits]] over luxury gowns and formal wear.
* MoreInsultingThanIntended: During Pentious's first day in the the hotel she had him and Angel play out a skit where Angel was a drug dealer offering him crack, even having Angel refer to himself as a "crackhead." This clearly makes Angel uncomfortable, especially
when you consider he died from a drug overdose.
* {{Motifs}}: According to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjojinb_md0&t=8478s Vivienne Medrano]] in 2019, one of the main themes for Charlie's design is {{vaudeville}}[==]-era porcelain dolls and puppets. This can be seen in her more humanoid appearance compared to other demons, white skin, red cheek markings, thick lashes, and other makeup-like coloration such as black lips and fingernails and gray eyelids that give the appearance of wearing eyeshadow. She shares this motif with her father, as it is based on Lucifer's AngelicBeauty.
-->'''[[https://www.youtube.com/live/sjojinb_md0?si=Afz4kSvpcN6x4gAl&t=8535 Vivienne Medrano:]]''' [Charlie's] biggest theme is like, she's supposed to be like a porcelain doll, 'cause like, her and Lucifer ... the way I based Lucifer was basically like on the... theology that Lucifer was like, one of the most gorgeous angels in Heaven,[...] that's why I made him really doll-like, that's why they've got, like, their cheeks the way they are.
* MotorMouth: She really gets going during "Inside of Every Demon is a Rainbow".
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone:
** For the early points of Angel Dust's stay at the Hotel, Charlie is fairly oblivious to the real severity of his state of life, and uses very patronising and unintentionally insulting exercises to try and enlighten him. In "Masquerade" she goes to a film shoot to support Angel and gets a ''very'' unpleasant glimpse of his situation, culminating in him throwing Charlie out after landing him in more hot water with Valentino. Though this was a ShooTheDog tactic on his part, he is later met with a bawling and sobbing Charlie begging him to forgive her.
** In "Welcome to Heaven" Charlie makes an argument in Heaven's court, which
turns out into an angry uproar against Adam and Sera over their handling of the Exorcisms. When her case is overruled, a celebrating Adam vows to be clueless.
make Hazbin Hotel their next target to spite Charlie. "Hello Rosie" begins with her sobbing in her room, mortified that her attempt to redeem her clients has put them next on the kill list.
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Vaggie She's a demon (and was born that way unlike [[DemonOfHumanOrigin the sinner demons]]) but is a genuinely good kindhearted and joyful person and may be the only one among Sinners, who are described wants to be inherently irredeemable. Aside from being [[MurderIsTheBestSolution quick to point weapons at people]] despite the Hotel's principles help others.
* NiceGirl: An oddity for a denizen
of trust and forgiveness, and her possible military background, her presence in Hell is a mystery. As it turns out, Vaggie is a genuinely good person... among the ''Exorcists'', who are shown to be inherently psychopathic, murderous assholes. It turns out because Hell, she's ''not'' [[MurderIsTheBestSolution a complete murder freak]] very compassionate and chose to spare a demon child, she was mutilated and exiled to optimistic. She cares for the denizens of Hell for aiding the enemy. As a result, and would do anything to reform everyone who's willing to seek redemption. Even with someone trying to sabotage her business like [[TheMole Sir Pentious]], she tries is willing to warn Charlie that the Exorcists can't be trusted, calling forgive them bloodthirsty and deranged.
* MysteriousPast: We know little of
give them a chance. The only time she really stops being nice is when she gets pushed too far (like clapping back at Katie Killjoy for mocking her past prior goals of rehabilitating demons) and when she sees people are being treated horribly (with her coming pretty close to assaulting Valentino after seeing how horribly Angel Dust is exploited by him).
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Her attempts to make an argument for redeeming sinners in court, including revealing the Exterminations
to the hotel, but her DrillSergeantNasty attitude in "Scrambled Eggs" and the way she talks about it implies that she was in some kind rest of military at some point. "Welcome Heaven, fail to Heaven" reveals that she's a FallenAngel, a former Exorcist that Adam and Lute kicked out and left for dead because she spared a demon child, but aside from her being one of do much more than put Hazbin Hotel first on Adam's top soldiers nothing about her past is revealed.
* NeatFreak: According

* NighInvulnerable: As a former Exorcist, Vaggie is nearly impossible to harm by any means except Angelic weaponry. Carmilla notes that this has given her a habit of fighting in a way that exposes herself, since she's accustomed to not needing to bother
much more demonic-looking one, with defense.
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: The only reason Vaggie is no longer an Exorcist is due to [[WouldntHurtAChild sparing a demon child]]. This cost her [[EyeScream an eye]] and her wings, and she was left to die.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Downplayed in both cases.
** Vaggie's Exorcist wings look very similar to her former associates but if one were to look [[https://phoenixlionme.tumblr.com/post/744407356884074496 closely]], she has one defining feature separating her
glowing red eyes, large horns sprouting from them -- Vaggie was the only Exorcist her head and razor sharp teeth.
* NonHumanHumanoidHybrid: Ambiguous. Her dad is Lucifer, so she is half (Fallen) Angel. The ambiguous part comes
with one stripe on her wings, instead of two. And even after she regrows a new pair, she still has mother, who, if we're going off the one stripe. Why she only had one stripe as opposed to two is currently unknown.
** During
biblical lore and the annual Exterminations, Exorcist Angels were known to sport sadistic smiles when killing story book Charlie is narrating in the Sinners. However, even while wearing her mask, Vaggie doesn't smile during the genocide but rather prologue, would be a frowning, angry expression.DemonOfHumanOrigin.



** Despite her stance against the bar being installed, Vaggie still drinks to the point of being drunk according to Husk's comments on Episode 4.
** When Niffty kills Adam in Episode 8, unlike everyone else, who is utterly shocked, Vaggie has a massive grin on her face and looks like she's on the verge of outright [[{{Squee}} squeeing]].
* NumberTwo: She acts as Charlie's right-hand, as Vaggie is the manager of the Hotel.
* OnlySaneWoman: She seems to be the voice of reason among the main trio. She handles calling out Angel Dust and rightly points out to Charlie that letting Alastor help them is a bad idea. However, Vaggie relents due to wanting Charlie's plan to work.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** Even with their disagreements, Vaggie would always stand beside Charlie in the latter's endeavors while voicing her honest opinions. However, in the beginning of "Welcome to Heaven", Vaggie tries to ([[BadLiar badly]]) lie to Charlie about why she can't go to Heaven with her. And while she does relent, this is an important piece of foreshadowing of Vaggie's unusual behavior - She's a FallenAngel Exorcist who was abandoned by her superiors for sparing a Sinner child and doesn't want to go to Heaven and risk Charlie finding out.
** Vaggie doesn't easily show fear against enemies. But when [[BadBoss Adam]] is about to reveal Vaggie's past as a former Exorcist Angel to Charlie, Vaggie ''begs'' him not to in a genuinely scared voice.
* OppositesAttract: She and Charlie have opposing personalities: Charlie is upbeat, perky, constantly cheerful, and prone to breaking out in song. Vaggie is practical, perpetually frowns, has a temper, and is prone to resorting to violence. However, this is only on the surface level, and their relationship is deeper and more complex. Both are the most morally upright characters (granted, not a high bar), Charlie isn't as naive as her personality would imply and her motivation is her sorrow at seeing her people massacred each year, and Vaggie does believe in Charlie's dream even if she's skeptical if it can be achieved. This is also reflected by their backgrounds: Charlie is a hellborn demon, while Vaggie is a FallenAngel and a former Exorcist.
* PaperThinDisguise:
** While most sinners have obvious AnimalMotifs or are outright FunnyAnimals [[note]](or are obviously inhuman in [[NonHumanHead some]] [[BigRedDevil other]] [[{{Cyclops}} way]])[[/note]], Vaggie looks entirely human with her hair as the only indicator of her supposed moth theme. As it turns out this was an attempt to disguise her true nature as an Exorcist, who are {{Winged Humanoid}}s with no animalistic traits. The obviousness of her true identity is even {{lampshaded}} by Carmilla.
--->'''Carmilla:''' You have a giant "X" over your eye and wield an angelic spear. It's not rocket science.
** It ends up the same for the other side as well. While the telling traits get past everyone else in Heaven, Adam lampshades her overconfidence thinking he and Lute wouldn't recognise her with just a clothes and hair change.
* PerpetualFrowner: When she's not looking like she's about to murder someone, Vaggie tends to default into an annoyed-at-the-world frown. The only times she smiles is when talking to Charlie.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: She's the second shortest of the Hotel residents, after Niffty. However, despite her short height, Vaggie has proven to be stronger than she looks. During a training exercise, she was able to effortlessly grab, carry, and throw both the taller Sir Pentious and Angel Dust, with little effort. She turns out to be a FallenAngel, and angels are stronger than a vast majority of Hell's citizens, making her strength justified. And according to Adam, Vaggie was a ruthless Exterminator, with kills possibly in the thousands.
* PredatorTurnedProtector: Vaggie turned out to have been an Exorcist Angel three years prior to the series, as such she would murder a number of Sinners with little hesitation; according to Adam, her kill count was in the thousands. However, she couldn't bring herself to kill a Sinner child and was [[PunishedForSympathy punished]] for it by having her eye and wings ripped out. Thankfully, she was found by [[AllLovingHero Charlie]], and is now very dedicated to making sure Charlie's dream of redeeming Sinners come true. And, she has made it a [[DeclarationOfProtection vow]] to protect Charlie and the other demon Hotel occupants from danger, either from Hell or Heaven.
* PunishedForSympathy: Back when Vaggie was still an Exorcist, she encountered a terrified demon child and felt sorry enough for them to let them go away. The fact that she showed anything but complete disdain for demons and sinners led to [[GeneralRipper Lute]] cutting out her eye, ripping her wings off, and leaving her to die in Hell while the Exorcists finished the extermination and returned to Heaven.
* TheReliableOne: Vaggie is the most [[OnlySaneMan sane]] of the entire Hotel residents given Charlie's [[CloudCuckooLander flightiness]], Alastor's [[MoodSwinger unpredictability]], Husk's [[TheAlcoholic alcoholism]], Angel Dust's [[TheHedonist hedonism]], Niffty's [[AxCrazy psychoticness]], and Sir Pentious's [[IronButtMonkey slapstick magnet nature]]. At one point, Charlie states that Vaggie is the person she trusts the most. Which makes the reveal that Vaggie was a former Exorcist the whole time absolutely ''sting'' for the princess.
* RetractableAppendages: After she recovers her angel wings, she seemingly can retract them completely into her body at will.
* ScarsAreForever: Justified. Vaggie's eye was gouged out by Lute for "punishment" in sparing a Sinner child; the latter also ripped out Vaggie's first pair of wings. However, while she manages to regrow a new pair of the latter, she doesn't do so with the former. This is because Lute sliced out Vaggie's eye with her Angelic weapon, which turn out to be a weakness for Angels; but she didn't use said weapon on the latter's wings.
* ScaryTeeth: In the pilot she has a mouth full of sharp teeth that become more pronounced the more distressed she is.
* SexySecretary: In her final design, she somewhat has this aesthetic with her button-up blouse, tights, and short pencil skirt, plus her white-collar job, though she's actually the manager of the hotel.
* ShipperOnDeck: Vaggie gives a reassuring pat to Sir Pentious when the latter [[CannotSpitItOut attempts]] to confess his feelings to Cherri Bomb. She also pushes Charlie, also a shipper for the couple and is looking towards the couple in wide-eyed excitement, away to give said couple some [[LeaveTheTwoLovebirdsAlone privacy]].
* ShorterMeansSmarter: Downplayed. The other Hotel occupants aren't idiots and Vaggie has her own flaws as well. However, she is the most [[TheReliableOne reliable]] of them, often wanting to do the sensible solution in regard to a problem.

** Despite her stance against While she is undoubtedly one of, if not the, nicest person in Hell, she's not above using curse words, although she mostly [[PrecisionFStrike uses them for emphasis]] or when caught off guard rather than [[ClusterFBomb throwing them around in every other sentence]] like a lot of the bar other characters.
** Also, despite
being installed, Vaggie nice most of the time, she still drinks gets annoyed enough to cuss out and fight Katie Killjoy. She's also petty enough to add her rival into her song, including her on the point phrase "All of being drunk according to you cretins, sluts, and losers".
** Implied by
Husk's comments on Episode 4.
** When Niffty kills Adam
in Episode 8, unlike everyone else, who is utterly shocked, Vaggie has a massive grin on 4, she tends to drink to the point of drunkenly spouting out her face and looks like insecurities. In Episode 6, she's on baffled at Heaven's strictness in regards to staying sober.

* OnlySaneWoman: She seems to be OlderThanTheyLook: Having been born in Hell, she's well over two hundred, but she has the voice appearance of reason among the main trio. She handles calling out Angel Dust and rightly points out to a young twenty-something. Her bubbly personality also her makes her seem even younger.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** Charlie is normally a PluckyGirl and close to an ExtremeDoormat with how much she puts up with. So, when she starts transforming into her more demonic form, it's highly unusual. When she starts to transform after seeing Valentino's abuse of Angel Dust, Angel immediately talks Charlie down before she can do anything, but Angel knew that things were about to go south if Charlie was willing to go that far.
** Even with their disagreements, Vaggie would always stand beside Charlie in the latter's endeavors while voicing is still warm and affectionate with her honest opinions. However, in the beginning of "Welcome to Heaven", girlfriend, Vaggie. [[spoiler:When she learns that Vaggie tries to ([[BadLiar badly]]) lie to Charlie lied about why she can't go to Heaven with her. And while she does relent, this is an important piece of foreshadowing of Vaggie's unusual behavior - She's being a FallenAngel Exorcist, Charlie not only grows distant from the latter but also cold. It takes a heart-to-heart talk with Rosie to help Charlie work through the pain that Vaggie has lied to her for so long.]]
** Charlie is normally an extremely expressive and open person, whether that takes the form of expressing hope and joy or anger and frustration, but after discovering that [[spoiler:Vaggie lied about her past [[FallenAngel Exorcist]] Charlie's demeanor toward her girlfriend briefly becomes cold and distant]].
** Charlie agreed that making any kind of magically-binding deal with [[TheDreaded Alastor]] would be bad and refuses to do when they first meet.

[[spoiler:Then Adam vaporizes Sir Pentious, and driven by rage, she goes full demon form and goes on the offensive, actually stabbing Adam and drawing blood.]]
* OppositesAttract: She and Charlie Vaggie have opposing personalities: Charlie is upbeat, perky, constantly cheerful, and prone to breaking out in song. Vaggie is practical, perpetually frowns, has a temper, and is prone to resorting to violence. However, this is only on the surface level, and their relationship is deeper and more complex. Both are the most morally upright characters (granted, not a high bar), Charlie isn't as naive as her personality would imply and her motivation is her sorrow at seeing her people massacred each year, and year. Vaggie does believe in Charlie's dream dream, even if she's skeptical if it can be achieved. This is also reflected by their backgrounds: Charlie is a hellborn demon, while Vaggie [[spoiler:Vaggie is a FallenAngel and a former Exorcist.

That said, her idealism has at least reformed Vaggie looks entirely human and managed to crack Angel's heartless facade a little.

* PerpetualFrowner: PartialTransformation: When she's not looking like especially angry she starts transforming into her full demon form--sprouting horns and having her irises turn yellow and sclerae turn red. A RunningGag across the series is her ''starting'' to transform out of rage, only to be interrupted and snap back to her senses. [[spoiler:She transforms fully after Adam kills Sir Pentious in the finale, showing how she's about to murder someone, Vaggie tends to default into an annoyed-at-the-world frown.

conjure fire a couple of times. During "Hell Is Forever", her PartialTransformation causes a piece of paper in her hand to ignite. She's also capable of creating fireworks, which she also makes use of as unconventional explosive projectiles in battle.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: ThePollyanna: She's the ''only'' good-natured optimistic demon in all of Hell and tries to act and speak as cordially as possible, but she's constantly repulsed by how other (read: all the rest) demons behave around her, which doesn't put a lot of faith in her plan to give them a second shortest of chance to ascend to Heaven.

** After being humiliated by Katie on TV, Charlie tries to one-up her by stealing her pen. Unfortunately, her [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch poor word choice]] [[BerserkButton only escalates things]].

* PrecisionFStrike: Unlike many other characters in Hell, who [[ClusterFBomb shout profanities like there's no tomorrow]], Charlie mostly only uses curse words for emphasis or when caught off guard.
-->'''Charlie:''' That's what the ''fuck'' I've been saying!
* PrettyPrincessPowerhouse: The beautiful Princess Of Hell who also happens
to be stronger than she looks. During the daughter of a training exercise, she was able to effortlessly grab, carry, higher fallen seraphim and throw both the taller Sir Pentious original sinner which makes her the second most powerful entity in Hell and Angel Dust, with little effort. She turns out to be a FallenAngel, and angels are stronger than a vast majority lot of Hell's citizens, making beings in Heaven. While she hasn't shown the full extent of her strength justified. power due to her own morals and being WillfullyWeak, from the small glimpses we have seen it's made pretty clear that she is far, FAR more dangerous than her cute design and NiceGirl personality suggests.
* PrincessClassic: With her sweet and altruistic personality, WideEyedIdealist approach to redeeming sinners, and the royal authority as Lucifer's daughter, she's pretty much an archetypical princess.
And according while she prefers suits over dresses, she still fits the mold. It's just that her domain happens to Adam, be Hell.
* PrincessProtagonist: She is the princess of Hell and the main character of the story.
* PunchCatch: She manages to extend a hand and stop [[spoiler:Adam's]] charge completely dead in its tracks when the latter tries to score a cheap shot against her father. What makes this especially notable is that [[spoiler:Adam]] had just overpowered her in the same fight, the disparity between the two outcomes and her arm swelling and glowing red implies that she tapped into a power she hasn't fully realized yet.
* QuirkyGirlQuirkyTux: Her regular outfit is a red and black tuxedo.
* RageBreakingPoint: Charlie remains rather calm and meek in most circumstances, but when faced with cruelty and injustice, she gives into anger and her demonic heritage (red eyes and horns) manifests:
** When Adam continuously talks over her, insulting and mocking her plan to her face while sneering that he and the other Exorcists use the Exterminations as entertainment, Charlie becomes enraged and starts transforming only to back down.
** Upon seeing the abuse Valentino subjects Angel Dust to firsthand, she becomes furious and starts transforming, but is stopped by Angel.
** [[spoiler:During "You Didn't Know", you can see and hear her anger building up during her ''"It's not fair Sera"'' line, with
Vaggie was a ruthless Exterminator, trying to rein her in as she is partially transformed and Adam is gloating to her face about the next Extermination, before joining in with kills possibly Emily in berating the elite of Heaven for propping up such an unfair system while claiming to be good.]]
** Played for laughs in "Hello Rosie". [[spoiler:After spending most of the episode struggling with sorting out her conflicted feelings regarding Vaggie in light of finding out she's a FallenAngel and the stress and desperation to save the Hotel from Adam, [[ScrewPolitenessImASenior Susan's]] heckling while she's trying to rally Cannibal Town to help her finally pushes her over the edge and she furiously cusses Susan out.]]
** In "The Show Must Go On", Charlie is initially defensive and apologetic during the battle, staying in her humanoid form. However, after Adam [[spoiler:[[KamehameHadoken casually obliterates]] Sir Pentious, she becomes enraged, fully turns into her demonic form for the first time and rushes to fight Adam.]]
* RealityWarper: As shown by a scene from ''WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss'', the scene from the "Inside of Every Demon is a Rainbow" song where she was sitting on a cloud holding a puppy and cotton candy actually happened in-universe, meaning everything else in that song did as well. Given the song was completely spontaneous, this implies that she has an unspecified capacity for bending the reality of Hell to her whim. The backstory
in the thousands.
* PredatorTurnedProtector: Vaggie turned
first official episode implies this is a power she inherited from her mother. She's also demonstrated the ability to conjure objects out of thin air, such as when she summons her plans for the hotel from a flaming portal on a table to show them to Adam.
* Really700YearsOld: In the "Let's Misbehave" clip, there's a family portrait of hers with a caption that reads, "Magne Family 1871" which implies that she's well over a hundred years old. In the actual pilot though, the portrait is no longer accompanied with this particular caption. In a later stream by Faustisse, the portrait of her and her ex-boyfriend, Seviathan, at prom was stated
to have been an Exorcist Angel three taken over 200 years prior to the series, as such she would murder a number of Sinners with little hesitation; according to Adam, ago, which lifts her kill count was in the thousands. However, she couldn't bring herself to kill a Sinner child and was [[PunishedForSympathy punished]] for it by having her eye and wings ripped out. Thankfully, she was found by [[AllLovingHero Charlie]], and is now very dedicated to making sure age even higher.
* TheRedeemer:
Charlie's dream goal is to become one of these. She believes that every demon in hell can be redeemed if they try -- and she even opens up a hotel to help sinners work toward redemption so they can go to heaven. She also successfully gets Sir Pentious to be a better person after showing him mercy. [[spoiler:And she ends up being proven right when Sir Pentious goes to Heaven after his HeroicSacrifice.]]
* RedEyesTakeWarning: She's very nice, but her red eyes become very apparent when she embraces the devil side of herself. They are most noticeable when she's singing "Inside of Every Demon is a Rainbow" but are also visible in the introduction when she's lamenting all of the death caused by the latest extermination. Her design in the series has permanently red pupils, and when she's angered her eyes change to have red sclerae and SupernaturalGoldEyes.
* RedIsHeroic: Her design in the series proper is predominantly red, and she's the most noble character in the series. This separates her quite a bit from a lot of other demons, who are RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver.
* RousseauWasRight: Charlie is shown to be the kindest, nicest, most joyful person in Hell. Growing up, she always tried to see the good in everything around her. As such, Charlie sincerely believes that every single demon has something good deep down inside. This is best demonstrated by her song "Inside of Every Demon is a Rainbow", which is basically ''RousseauWasRight: The Song''.
-->'''Charlie:''' ♪ Inside of every demon is a rainbow,\\
Inside every sinner is a shiny smile!\\
Inside of every creepy hatchet-wielding maniac,\\
Is a jolly, happy, cupcake-loving child! ♪
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Seeing her people being slaughtered every year in response to Hell's OverpopulationCrisis, she decides she can't stand idly by while the place she lives in is subjected to such violence. She embarks on a passion project to solve the problem in a humane way by rehabilitating sinners.
* SevenHeavenlyVirtues: Ironically, Charlie (a hellborn demon) embodies this trope.
** Chastity: Charlie is easily one of the most morally wholesome characters in the show and lives a very "clean" life free from the many hedonistic pleasures found in Hell. While [[TheBartender Husk]] noting that [[InVinoVeritas Charlie confides in him suggests that she might occasionally drink]], it's never to the point of addiction and she never uses drugs or indulges herself in unhealthy behavior. It's also implied she and Vaggie have a very active, happy sex life but the two are in a monogamous and committed relationship as opposed to most Sinners.
** Temperance: Despite starting from a position with very little knowledge of ''how'' exactly to redeem Sinners, Charlie is mindful of personal limits and boundaries. She often reins in the more extreme impulses of the other residents of the Hotel, such as when Vaggie took a trust exercise to a warzone, while also being open minded about their thoughts and histories.
** Charity: Everything Charlie works toward is for the betterment of others at no gain to herself. She's very content with the idea of Sinner living in the hotel for free as long as they want to redeem themselves and in the prequel comic she gave to Angel Dust a hefty sum of money as an "investment in him".
** Diligence: She takes her job at the Hazbin Hotel very seriously, and she is willing to confront Heaven itself to make sure her goal
of redeeming Sinners damned souls would come true. And, into fruition, despite starting with little to no support, and despite the many challenges and setbacks she faces, Charlie always picks herself back up and keeps pushing onward to make her dream of redemption a reality.
** Patience: Even when
she has made it a [[DeclarationOfProtection vow]] to protect Charlie deal with shady jerks, she tries to be professional and the other demon Hotel occupants from danger, civil to them, and when she does lose her cool, it's either from Hell in self-defense, or Heaven.
* PunishedForSympathy: Back when Vaggie was still an Exorcist, she encountered a terrified demon child and felt sorry enough for them to let them go away. The fact that she showed anything but complete disdain for demons and sinners led to [[GeneralRipper Lute]] cutting out her eye, ripping her wings off, and leaving her to die in Hell while the Exorcists finished the extermination and returned to Heaven.
* TheReliableOne: Vaggie is the most [[OnlySaneMan sane]] of the entire Hotel residents given Charlie's [[CloudCuckooLander flightiness]], Alastor's [[MoodSwinger unpredictability]], Husk's [[TheAlcoholic alcoholism]], Angel Dust's [[TheHedonist hedonism]], Niffty's [[AxCrazy psychoticness]], and Sir Pentious's [[IronButtMonkey slapstick magnet nature]]. At one point, Charlie states that Vaggie is the person she trusts the most. Which makes the reveal that Vaggie was a former Exorcist the whole time absolutely ''sting'' for the princess.
* RetractableAppendages: After she recovers her angel wings, she seemingly can retract them completely into her body at will.
* ScarsAreForever: Justified. Vaggie's eye was gouged out by Lute for "punishment" in sparing a Sinner child; the latter also ripped out Vaggie's first pair of wings. However, while she manages to regrow a new pair of the latter, she doesn't do so with the former. This is
because Lute sliced out Vaggie's eye with those people earned her Angelic weapon, which turn out to be a weakness hatred for Angels; but she didn't use said weapon on the latter's wings.good reasons (such as Adam and Valentino).
* ScaryTeeth: In ** Kindness: She really wants to redeem Sinners with having nothing in return, and she willingly forgives those who wronged her as long as they genuinely repent. [[spoiler:In the pilot past she has even saved Vaggie, who at the time was recently injured and banished from Heaven by Lute and Adam with no questions asked, although she mistook her for a mouth full Sinner who had a close call with an Exorcist]].
** Humility: Despite her being The Princess
of sharp teeth Hell, she never uses her status or her powers to boss people around nor looks them down upon, and instead goes to great lengths to protect them. When Adam asks her why she would give up her immortal life for Sinners during their battle, she immediately responds that become more pronounced everyone in her hotel is her family.
* ShieldBash: She initially wields a large shield in "The Show Must Go On", using it to bat away
the more distressed she is.
* SexySecretary: In her final design, she somewhat has this aesthetic with her button-up blouse, tights, and short pencil skirt, plus her white-collar job, though she's actually the manager of the hotel.
attacking Exorcists.
* ShipperOnDeck: Vaggie gives a reassuring pat to In "The Show Must Go On", she watches with wide-eyed excitement when Sir Pentious when the latter [[CannotSpitItOut attempts]] tries]] to confess admit his feelings to Cherri Bomb. She also pushes Charlie, also a shipper for the couple and is looking towards the couple in wide-eyed excitement, away to give said couple some [[LeaveTheTwoLovebirdsAlone privacy]].
* ShorterMeansSmarter: Downplayed. The other Hotel occupants aren't idiots and Vaggie has her own flaws as well. However, she is the most [[TheReliableOne reliable]] of them, often wanting to do the sensible solution in regard to a problem.
Bomb.



* SingingVoiceDissonance: When voicing Vaggie, Creator/StephanieBeatriz uses a fairly deep and almost masculine-sounding voice (very close to her delivery when playing [[Series/BrooklynNineNine Rosa]]), but uses her higher natural voice when singing, turning Vaggie into a mezzo-soprano instead of the expected alto.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: A same-sex example. Vaggie is deeply loyal to and in love with [[AntiAntiChrist Charlie]] for a number of the latter's positive qualities: [[NiceGirl kindness]], [[AllLovingHero compassion]], [[RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething selflessness]], [[HairOfGoldHeartOfGold gentleness]], and [[TheFettered being one of the most morally upright people in the show]]. Her portion of "[[DistantDuet Whatever It Takes]]" has Vaggie reveal snippets of what made her fall for Charlie when they first met: the demon princess made her feel like "a stranger in a brand-new place", possibly meaning how the former was a bright spot for her in [[CrapsackWorld Hell]]; she then sings how Charlie makes her feel understood. She mentions in "Masquerade" that one of the things she loves about Charlie is that she doesn't abuse her royal title to get what she wants. "Welcome to Heaven" reveals they first met after Vaggie was mutilated and left for dead by Lute and Adam; Charlie came to her aid and the reaction from her after Charlie bandaged her up implies that was the moment where her romantic feelings, if not friendship, for the Hell princess first appeared.
* SkeletonMotif: [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/hazbinhotel/images/0/05/10k_Thanks.jpg This]] official artwork has her wearing a skull themed dress with similar earrings.
* SourOutsideSadInside: A lot of her sour exterior is meant to hide her own self-loathing and inadequacies. She only tends to let her inner self out when alone, not even showing her issues to Charlie. Husk only knew about them because of her succumbing to InVinoVeritas whenever at his bar. It's implied these feelings stem from her past as an Exorcist and all the Sinners she's killed, as well as her lying to Charlie about her past and claiming she's a Sinner.
* SourSupporter: She's doubtful of whether Charlie's hotel will work, but she's still very supportive and invested in helping her.
* SpicyLatina: Downplayed. She's a Latina with a fiery temper, but it's not due to anger issues, it's from having many legitimate reasons to be pissed off. She's also not sexualized by the show.
* TheSpock: She seems to act as a voice of reason for Charlie and the main cast as a whole.
* TheStoic: Downplayed. While Vaggie does act as the voice of reason for the main cast and usually has a [[PerpetualFrowner frown]] on her face, she's also prone to letting her anger issues get ahead of her in stressful situations. Other than that, she ''does'' smile more in the TV series, but usually keeps a neutral expression for professional reasons.
* StraightMan: In many of her dynamics with other characters, Vaggie plays the role of straight man. Whether it's being the more grounded realistic girlfriend to Charlie's naïve idealistic character or being [[StraightManAndWiseGuy someone who takes things seriously to a wisecracker]] like Angel Dust.
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: While it's hard to notice given Vaggie's more prominent pink sclera, she does have a yellow-colored iris. This would serve as an early, subtle hint of her true Angelic heritage.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: She hates that [[TheHedonist Angel Dust]] isn't taking the hotel's mission seriously, she does not think that working with [[TheDreaded Alastor the Radio Demon]] is a good idea and is very reluctant to allow Sir Pentious to become a guest of the hotel after he's outed as TheMole. But they (and everyone else) have to work together if they're going to make things a success. When Adam plans to attack the Hotel next Exorcism, Vaggie gives them the okay to leave and save themselves, they all decide to stay and fight.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Her reaction to when Charlie starts singing her pitch for the Happy Hotel, accompanied by a FacePalm and an "Oh, no."
* TokenGoodTeammate: As stated in the below trope (TokenHeroicOrc), Vaggie was this to her fellow Exorcists before being abandoned. She was caught sparing a Sinner child by Lute, resulting in her mutilation and [[FallenAngel fall]], with it hinted that Vaggie was the first Exorcist to spare a Sinner. And a subtle notice shows that unlike her former teammates who sadistically smiled at the annual exterminations, Vaggie sported a serious frown, implying she didn't see any sick enjoyment from murdering Sinner but as a duty. And in the present day, it shown that ''none'' of her former Exorcist sisters have fond memories of her, even being ''excited'' at the prospect of murdering her. Given all this, it's implied that Vaggie may have been the sole, good-hearted Exorcist, with her heroic side being fully brought out upon her fall.
* TokenHeroicOrc: DoubleSubvertedTrope. Initially she seems to be one of the ''only'' good-hearted Sinners, with it not even being clear ''why'' someone like her is even in Hell to begin with. The initial subversion comes from the fact she's ''not'' a Sinner, she's an ''Angel''. More specifically, she's a FallenAngel, the second subversion coming from the fact she's a former Exorcist but was mutilated and left for dead by Adam after she showed a demon child mercy, making her at the time the only good-hearted Exorcist amidst a legion of sadistic butchers.
* TwitchyEye: She gets so pissed at Angel Dust in the pilot that her eye starts twitching.
* TwoferTokenMinority: She's both Latina and a lesbian in a relationship with Charlie. This later becomes a ''Three''fer when she's revealed to be a former Exorcist, making her an angel working in a hotel populated by demons and Sinners.
* UndyingLoyalty: Of the entire Hotel residents, Vaggie is the one who actively and steadfastly helps in ensuring Charlie's plan to redeem sinners come true. Vaggie has essentially dedicated her whole life to doing whatever she can to make Charlie safe and happy, as repayment for seeing worth in Vaggie at her lowest point after she was abandoned by Heaven.
* UnequalPairing: {{Subverted|Trope}}, with her relationship with Charlie. Charlie is Princess of Hell, daughter of Lucifer (''the'' FallenAngel and the undisputed King of Hell), while Vaggie at first appears to just be a common sinner. But then the reveal of her true nature as a FallenAngel herself flips this, as it puts them both on more equal footing.
* UnfortunateNames: Her nickname and real name unfortunately brings to mind "vagina", a fact Angel lampshaded in the prequel comic and first episode. It's later revealed that [[GiverOfLameNames Adam]] gave it to her because she was so good at killing demons, comparing her to "the greatest thing ever". He even pronounces it with a ''soft'' "g".
* UnkemptBeauty: Not in the present but during her first meeting with Charlie. Vaggie was left disheveled, and eye gouged out by her former superiors, and near death before being found and tended to by her future girlfriend. And even with her outward appearance being messy and scarred, one grateful smile at Charlie's act of kindness left the Princess of Hell romantically flustered.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: In general, just do ''not'' think of harming, insulting, or threatening Charlie when Vaggie is present.
** Her response to when the camera demon called Charlie a "stupid bitch"? Slug him in the face.
** When [[TheDreaded Alastor]] shows up at the hotel, Vaggie immediately ''threatens him with a spear'' to protect Charlie.
** Vaggie immediately brandishes a spear during Niffty's introduction when the tiny demon suddenly lifts Charlie off the ground. When Niffty puts her girlfriend down again, Vaggie lowers the spear as well.
** After seeing Charlie [[DealWithTheDevil striking a deal]] with Alastor, Vaggie immediately readies her blade to kill or harm him. She only stops because Charlie intervenes.
* WalkingSpoiler: It's difficult to talk about Vaggie's role in Season 1 without mentioning that she's not a mere sinner, but rather a FallenAngel who was left for dead by Adam and Lute.
* WeaponSpecialization: She's proficient in fighting with spears, as that's the weapon she was taught to use when she was trained as an exterminator.
* WhenSheSmiles: Under normal circumstances, her default expression is [[PerpetualFrowner a frown]]. Only Charlie can get her to genuinely smile.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: Inverted. Vaggie has white hair and while she does come off as grumpy, she's one of the most decent citizens of Hell. Plus, she fully supports Charlie's idea of redeeming the demons, even if she personally has some doubts. With the reveal that she's actually a former Exorcist, this trope is still in play as she spared a demon child during an extermination.
* WingdingEyes: She gets skulls in her pupils after Angel smugly reminds her that she can't kill him in Hell.
* WingedHumanoid: DoubleSubverted. As a former Exorcist, she once had feathery Angel wings, but they were torn off by Lute after she spared a Sinner child. She eventually gains a new set of wings.
* WouldntHurtAChild: The "crime" that got her expelled from the Exorcists and left for dead on the streets of Hell? Sparing a demon child.
* XMarksTheHero: She has a large "X" on the eyepatch covering her missing eye and is one of the central characters in the show. She also serves as the ''only'' good member of the Exorcists, refusing to kill a demon child during the Extermination and later devoting herself to helping Charlie's dream of redeeming sinners.
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: Vaggie is originally from Heaven and was an Exorcist Angel. However, when she spared a demon child, Lute gouged her eye and tore off her wings, leaving the former incapable of returning home.
* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: Her reaction in "Hello Rosie" to the fact that [[TakesOneToKillOne angelic steel is the key to harming Exorcists]] has shades of this, asking how no one else has figured it out before.

* SingingVoiceDissonance: When voicing Vaggie, Creator/StephanieBeatriz uses ShownTheirWork: As pointed out in a fairly deep and almost masculine-sounding voice (very close to her delivery [[https://reddit.com/r/HazbinHotel/comments/e82isk/its_hard_to_see_but_when_vaggies_adjusting/ reddit post]], there's actually a symbol on Charlie's bowtie which can be seen [[FreezeFrameBonus when playing [[Series/BrooklynNineNine Rosa]]), but uses her higher natural voice when singing, turning Vaggie into adjusts it]].

* SourOutsideSadInside: A lot of her sour exterior is meant to hide her own self-loathing and inadequacies. She only tends to let her inner self out when alone, not even showing her issues to Charlie. Husk only knew about them
forgive Vaggie's previous lie because of the latter's actions spoke more to her succumbing to InVinoVeritas whenever at his bar. character -- selfless, unyielding support]]. It's also implied these feelings stem that Charlie fell in love with Vaggie because the latter was the [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe first person in all of Hell to actively, steadfastly, and genuinely support her ideas and goals]], specifically the desire to redeem Sinners.
* SinsOfTheFather: {{Zigzagg|ingTrope}}ed. She is allowed to visit Heaven to make the case for her plan to redeem sinners, showing that she is exempt
from her past as an Exorcist parents' banishment, and all the Sinners she's killed, as well as Sera and Emily are polite to her lying since she is functionally a foreign dignitary. That said, Sera emphasizes that her visit to Heaven is ''temporary'' when Emily gushes about how much she'll enjoy her stay, so it's more that Lucifer holds enough authority to force her visit than it is Charlie about being considered separate from him.
* SitcomArchNemesis: [[https://twitter.com/VivziePop/status/1014241101941575681 According to Viv]], Charlie has one with the character of Helsa, a rich girl demon that [[https://twitter.com/VivziePop/status/1046164032842067969 Viv]] [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=L0T91K9l5Sk&t=2117 describes]] to be like Regina George from ''Film/MeanGirls''. While Helsa has yet to make a full proper appearance, she has a cameo during "Inside of Every Demon is a Rainbow" and appears in a painting in the hotel with
her past and claiming she's a Sinner.
* SourSupporter: She's doubtful of whether
Charlie's hotel will work, but she's still very supportive and invested families. Helsa's cameo in helping her.
* SpicyLatina: Downplayed. She's a Latina with a fiery temper, but it's not due to anger issues, it's from having many legitimate reasons to be pissed off. She's also not sexualized by the show.
* TheSpock: She seems to act as a voice of reason for Charlie and the main cast as a whole.
* TheStoic: Downplayed. While Vaggie does act as the voice of reason for the main cast and usually has a [[PerpetualFrowner frown]] on her face, she's also prone to letting her anger issues get ahead of her in stressful situations. Other than that, she ''does'' smile more in the TV series, but usually keeps a neutral expression for professional reasons.
* StraightMan: In many of her dynamics with other characters, Vaggie plays the role of straight man. Whether it's being the more grounded realistic girlfriend to
Charlie's naïve idealistic character or being [[StraightManAndWiseGuy someone who takes things seriously to a wisecracker]] like Angel Dust.
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: While it's hard to notice given Vaggie's more prominent pink sclera, she does have a yellow-colored iris. This would serve as an early, subtle hint of her true Angelic heritage.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: She hates that [[TheHedonist Angel Dust]] isn't taking
song shows off the hotel's mission seriously, she does not think that working two's dynamic, with [[TheDreaded Alastor the Radio Demon]] is a good idea and is very reluctant to allow Sir Pentious to become a guest of the hotel after he's outed as TheMole. But they (and everyone else) have to work together if they're going to make things a success. When Adam plans to attack the Hotel next Exorcism, Vaggie gives them the okay to leave and save themselves, they all decide to stay and fight.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Her reaction to when
Charlie starts singing calling her pitch for the Happy Hotel, accompanied by a FacePalm and an "Oh, no."
loser.
* TokenGoodTeammate: As stated in the below trope (TokenHeroicOrc), Vaggie was this to her fellow Exorcists before SlasherSmile: Despite being abandoned. She was caught sparing an AllLovingHero she adopts a Sinner child by Lute, resulting in vicious grin when her mutilation and [[FallenAngel fall]], with it hinted that Vaggie was the first Exorcist to spare a Sinner. And a subtle notice shows that unlike her former teammates who sadistically smiled at the annual exterminations, Vaggie sported a serious frown, implying she didn't see any sick enjoyment from murdering Sinner but as a duty. And in the present day, it shown that ''none'' of her former Exorcist sisters have fond memories of her, even being ''excited'' at the prospect of murdering her. Given all this, it's implied that Vaggie may have been the sole, good-hearted Exorcist, with her heroic side being fully brought out upon her fall.
face shifts into its more demonic form.
* TokenHeroicOrc: DoubleSubvertedTrope. Initially she seems to be one of the ''only'' good-hearted Sinners, with it not even being clear ''why'' someone like her is even in Hell to begin with. The initial subversion comes from the fact she's ''not'' a Sinner, she's an ''Angel''. More specifically, she's a FallenAngel, the second subversion coming from the fact she's a former Exorcist but was mutilated and left for dead by Adam after she showed a demon child mercy, making her at the time the only good-hearted Exorcist amidst a legion of sadistic butchers.
* TwitchyEye: She gets so pissed at Angel Dust in the pilot that her eye starts twitching.
* TwoferTokenMinority:
SpecialPersonNormalName: She's both Latina Lucifer's daughter and a lesbian in a relationship with Charlie. This later becomes a ''Three''fer when she's revealed to be a former Exorcist, making her an angel working in a hotel populated by demons and Sinners.
* UndyingLoyalty: Of
the entire Hotel residents, Vaggie is the one who actively and steadfastly helps in ensuring Charlie's plan to redeem sinners come true. Vaggie has essentially dedicated her whole life to doing whatever she can to make Charlie safe and happy, as repayment for seeing worth in Vaggie at her lowest point after she was abandoned by Heaven.
* UnequalPairing: {{Subverted|Trope}}, with her relationship with Charlie. Charlie is
Princess of Hell, daughter of Lucifer (''the'' FallenAngel and the undisputed King of Hell), while Vaggie at first appears to just be a common sinner. But then the reveal of her true nature as a FallenAngel herself flips this, as it puts them both on more equal footing.
* UnfortunateNames: Her nickname and real
name unfortunately brings to mind "vagina", a fact Angel lampshaded in the prequel comic and first episode. It's later revealed that [[GiverOfLameNames Adam]] gave it to her because she was so good at killing demons, comparing her to "the greatest thing ever". He even pronounces it with a ''soft'' "g".
is... Charlotte.
* UnkemptBeauty: Not in the present but during her first meeting with Charlie. Vaggie was left disheveled, and eye gouged out by her former superiors, and near death before being found and tended to by her future girlfriend. And even with her outward appearance being messy and scarred, one grateful smile at Charlie's act of kindness left SpoiledSweet: As the Princess of Hell, she's arguably the most priviledged person there. She had a loving childhood in Hell romantically flustered.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: In general, just do ''not'' think
from parents whose crimes were granting humanity free will while she herself avoids any guilt for past crimes because she's a hellborn. Her inherited power means she's untouchable to other demons and her father's deal with Heaven keeps her safe from Extermination. All of harming, insulting, or threatening these advantages give her the room to be idealistic and generous to her demonic subjects.
* SpontaneousWeaponCreation:
Charlie when Vaggie is present.
** Her response
able to when the camera manifest her pitchfork as part of her full demon called transformation.
* StatuesqueStunner: While the art tends to [[YourSizeMayVary fluctuate a bit due to the realities of animators not keeping perfect scale at all times]], Vivzie has stated that
Charlie a "stupid bitch"? Slug him in the face.
** When [[TheDreaded Alastor]] shows up
stands at the hotel, Vaggie immediately ''threatens him with roughly 6'6" (198cm) tall. ''Very'' tall by human standards and towering a spear'' to protect Charlie.
** Vaggie immediately brandishes a spear during Niffty's introduction when the tiny demon suddenly lifts Charlie off the ground. When Niffty puts
full head taller than her girlfriend down again, Vaggie lowers the spear as well.
** After seeing Charlie [[DealWithTheDevil striking a deal]] with Alastor, Vaggie immediately readies
Vaggie, and her blade to kill or harm him. She only stops because Charlie intervenes.
* WalkingSpoiler: It's difficult to talk about Vaggie's role in Season 1 without mentioning that
father Lucifer, and she's not a mere sinner, but rather a FallenAngel who was left for dead [[DudeMagnet consistently seen as attractive]]. It's mitigated only by Adam and Lute.
* WeaponSpecialization: She's proficient in fighting
Hell's other creatures usually towering even further above normal humans, with spears, as Charlie standing roughly medium height among the main cast.
* StealthInsult: When Katie Killjoy says she doesn't "touch the gays" because she has "standards", Charlie asks how
that's working out for her, with a large advertisement in the weapon she was taught to use background reminding everyone that they're in {{Hell}}.
* StealthPun: "Charlie Magne", her full name in the pilot, is a play on "Charlemagne".
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Charlie has a lot of her father's features (yellow eyes, skin complexion, cheeks) and looks even more like him
when she was trained as an exterminator.
* WhenSheSmiles: Under normal circumstances, her default expression is [[PerpetualFrowner a frown]]. Only Charlie can get her to genuinely smile.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: Inverted. Vaggie has white hair and while she does come off as grumpy, she's one of the most decent citizens of Hell. Plus, she fully supports Charlie's idea of redeeming the demons, even if she personally has some doubts. With the reveal that she's actually a former Exorcist, this trope is still in play as she spared
enters into a demon child during an extermination.
* WingdingEyes:
form. She gets skulls in only inherited her pupils after Angel smugly reminds mother's softer eye appearance and lacks her that she can't kill him in Hell.
* WingedHumanoid: DoubleSubverted. As a former Exorcist, she once had feathery Angel wings, but they were torn off by Lute after she spared a Sinner child. She eventually gains a new set of wings.
* WouldntHurtAChild: The "crime" that got her expelled from the Exorcists and left for dead on the streets of Hell? Sparing a demon child.
* XMarksTheHero: She has a large "X" on the eyepatch covering her missing eye and is one of the central characters in the show. She also serves as the ''only'' good member of the Exorcists, refusing to kill a demon child during the Extermination and later devoting herself to helping Charlie's dream of redeeming sinners.
father's jagged teeth.
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: Vaggie SuperCuteSuperpowers: When she's holding back, she presents magical blasts in the form of glittery firework-like explosions.
* SupernaturalFloatingHair: When she transforms into a more demonic form, her hair tends to start blowing around as if in a wind.
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: When she transforms fully or partially into her monstrous form, her irises and sclerae swap colors--the former turning red and the latter turning yellow with HellishPupils.
* TeamMom: Charlie
is an ultimately sweet and altruistic caretaker who genuinely loves the people she takes under her care and wants to see them improve, even if they sometimes need wrangling to stop their worst impulses from guiding them. At first all the residents see this as obnoxious CondescendingCompassion stemming from Charlie being a clueless noblewoman who is completely disconnected from the suffering of the average Sinner, but as the series progresses they gradually begin to accept it as the sincere, nurturing compassion it really is. It also clearly means a lot to Charlie, as she's driven to InelegantBlubbering when Angel forgives her for getting him in trouble with Valentino.
-->'''Angel:''' Charlie, I get it. Thanks...for caring about me.
* TenderTears: She's just as tearful as she is optimistic. Her first scene is her weeping over the demons killed in the Cleanse.
* ThouShaltNotKill: Charlie is averse to violence and killing, especially the routine Exorcist purges, but even if it's in self-defense or in a warzone. While she accepts her allies killing the Exorcists, Charlie doesn't personally kill anyone, fighting with a shield rather than a lethal weapon and shoots harmless fireworks at the angels. She even [[spoiler:doesn't want Adam dead and asked her dad to spare him once he's been pummeled to the ground]].
* TokenGoodTeammate: Downplayed. She is the most gung-ho Hazbin Hotel staff to redeem Sinners, but she also has the steadfast support of her girlfriend/manager, Vaggie. Also, Charlie is also the only staff member to not have a DarkAndTroubledPast that involves some kind of violent act. Plus, she is the straightest example of an AllLovingHero NiceGirl but the other cast members are all varying degrees of [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold jerks with hearts of gold]] but grow [[TookALevelInKindness kinder]] as the story progresses. [[spoiler: By the season one finale, the rest of the staff and residents are all committed to Charlie's goal for her and each other, with the exception being Alastor, though even ''he'' shows signs of growing attachment to them.]]
* TokenHeroicOrc: She's the only known Hellborn demon that can be called genuinely virtuous. She's a PluckyGirl, genuinely wants to help people become better, genuinely wants to reform sinners with her hotel efforts, and always tries to be polite to people.
* TomboyishName: While the name "Charlie" is gender neutral, traditionally it is a masculine name, befitting her penchant for suits. Valentino offhandedly refers to her as "Chuckie or Chandler, or I dunno -- something mannish like that".
* TookALevelInBadass: Part of Episode 7 is dedicated to Charlie learning to come into her own as the Princess of Hell and gaining the confidence to lead Sinners in a direct confrontation with the Exorcists.
-->''For the first time in my life I might have to be ready for this,\\
Ready to be the one who's leading from the front.\\
Got to come into my own, got to come into my throne!\\
Got to take charge and defend my only home.\\
And although I kind of feel unsteady now I need to be ready for this.''
* TragicDream: Putting aside whether anyone can or even wants to be redeemed, Charlie's dream of redeeming sinners is doomed to fail due to one factor: ''Heaven''. Despite her best hopes, Charlie's meeting with Adam and Lute makes it clear that they refuse to even entertain the idea of sinners redeeming themselves, the idea of the exterminations being for "population control" being nothing but an excuse to slaughter sinners with impunity. Charlie's dream was just as reliant on Heaven actually accepting the idea of sinners being redeemed as it was on sinners wanting to redeem themselves. But this is a long shot at best because Heaven is dead set on slaughtering as many demons as they can and will use whatever excuse they can to justify it after the fact. [[spoiler: "Welcome to Heaven" later reveals that the exterminations are actually kept a secret from most of Heaven to begin with and only the Exorsists and the top Seraphim, Sera, knowing about them with the actual reason for them being Sera's fear of Hell eventually rebelling against Heaven. Not only does Charlie later learn this, but also the fact that even when one of her hotel's patrons actually does change for the better, he doesn't go to Heaven like she
originally from thought and that not even Heaven's leadership knows what it actually takes for a soul to reach Heaven and was an Exorcist Angel. in the first place. However, at the end of season 1, Sir Pentious becomes an AscendedDemon and gets into Heaven right in front of Sera and Emily after confessing his love For Cherri Bomb and making a HeroicSacrifice in the fight against Adam, proving that Charlie's dream actually is possible.]]
* UnskilledButStrong: Charlie is among the most powerful entities in Hell, surpassed only by her parents. In the season one finale, she displayed an impressive feat of strength
when she spared made Adam bleed and absorbed his full-powered surprise punch without any negative consequences. According to an official source, Charlie's power surpasses even that of TheDreaded Alastor, making her a demon child, formidable force among the denizens of Hell. However, due to her lack of battle experience and unpredictable temperament, she tends to hold back from revealing her true capabilities. When she finally decides to unleash her full abilities against Adam, her inexperience causes her to be quickly overpowered, [[CurbStompCushion despite landing a solid hit first.]]]]
* UptownGirl: She's the Princess of Hell while her girlfriend, Vaggie, is a common mortal soul. [[spoiler:Or so she seems. Vaggie is actually a fallen exorcist, which makes her more similar to Charlie's father in terms of status.]]
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: In "The Show Must Go On", Charlie initially keeps saying ''"Sorry"'' every time she blocks or attacks angels, only to use her full powers at a group of them heading towards Vaggie. And when her girlfriend is being attacked by [[GeneralRipper Lute]], Charlie immediately tries to go and rescue her, only be stopped both times by [[ArcVillain Adam]]. And when the Exterminators are defeated and [[spoiler:Adam dead]], Charlies gives a [[DeathGlare terrifying]] [[https://twitter.com/HanasakuShijin/status/1753276912858710234 glare]] at an injured and distraught
Lute gouged while protectively holding Vaggie with one arm.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: She's capable of transforming herself in a variety of ways to look more demonic such as growing horns, flashing razor-sharp teeth, turning
her eye eyes red, and tore even growing a spiky tail. Since Seraphim are shown to have the ability to change their physical forms at will it's implied, she inherited this ability from her father.
* WarriorPrincess: Her full form has her materialize a wicked trident, along with spikier look and stereotypical demonic tail, and rides on one of her familiars as a DragonRider. Considering she's a nice, meek girl otherwise, if she ever gets into this form, [[GodzillaThreshold it's a sign that things have officially gone
off the rails.]]
* WeaponBasedCharacterization: During the assault on the Hazbin Hotel she initially defends herself using an apple-themed shield and impressive but largely harmless [[BlindedByTheLight blasts of light]], showing she is committed to defending the hotel but not out for blood. [[spoiler:This changes the second Adam obliterates Sir Pentious, prompting
her wings, leaving to discard the former incapable shield and draw an ornate angelic trident, showing she is now on the offensive and has no qualms about hurting Adam.]]
* WellDoneDaughterGirl: During a call to her mother, she says she's starting to think her father, Lucifer, is right about her. Regardless
of returning home.what he actually said, her tone shows that she is clearly affected by her dad not believing in her. It also doesn't help that her mother is apparently so far off the grid that the call doesn't even connect to voicemail. As we later find out, her mother has been off the grid for 7 years and her father has fallen into depression and [[ParentalNeglect has been emotionally distant at best.]]
* WhatsUpKingDude: The Princess of Hell regularly leaves her home and mingles with her people, although they don't give her the respect that her station demands.

* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: Her reaction WhatTheHellHero: [[spoiler:When making her case about the necessity of the Hotel and her plans for redeeming demons and Sinners in "Hello Rosie" the court of Heaven itself, she finds out that the exterminations were intended to be a [[GovernmentConspiracy secret known only to the fact higher ranking and more militant angels]], and moreover that [[TakesOneToKillOne angelic steel is not even the key angels know what the real requirements for entering Heaven are, and furiously calls them out on it. She and Emily also point out the hypocrisy of rejecting sinners who make real attempts to harming Exorcists]] improve while the Exorcists are allowed to be as ruthless and bloodthirsty as possible with no repercussions because they've already "earned their place" in heaven. Finally, they point out that the Sinners have already been punished for their sins by being sent to Hell, making the Exterminations DisproportionateRetribution by definition.]]
* WideEyedIdealist: {{Downplayed}}. She's not enough of a fool to believe that ''every'' demon in Hell will want to redeem themselves, but she wants to give her subjects the chance. She ''was'' however enough of one to think Heaven would even ''entertain'' the idea of Sinners redeeming themselves, only to be made painfully aware just how impossible her dream is after meeting Adam.
* WillfullyWeak: The only people in Hell more powerful than Charlie are her parents, but you wouldn't know that from looking at her because of her bubbly PluckyGirl personality. Charlie is just too nice to throw her weight around. Vox
has shades a bit of this, asking how no one else a freakout when he finds out Alastor is living with Charlie, as he worries any deal, they make will make Alastor too powerful to fight. While Charlie sometimes taps into her power and transforms into a more demonic-looking visage, she has figured it out before.never actually used her full power on anyone. [[spoiler:Even in the episode "The Show Must Go On" where Charlie fights against Adam, it's shown that she was still holding back.]]
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Leg drops Katie during the TV studio fight cutaway.
* YouCouldHaveUsedYourPowersForGood: [[spoiler:The entire court sequence of "Welcome to Heaven" is basically her telling off Sera and Adam for not only allowing the former to enable the latter's behavior, but also being clueless as to what ''actually'' requires a Sinner to ascend to Heaven, or what even requires someone to get into Heaven in the first place, accusing them of being completely corrupt in their authority, which they are.]]
* YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry: Downplayed, she does indeed begin to look more and more demonic as she becomes angry, growing horns, her hair comes undone and flows eerily while her eyes glow red. There are plenty of clues that the amount of power she has when angry is indeed above what even overlords have, but even then Charlie is still subconsciously holding back, it's not until she protects her dad from a sneak attack that we get a glimpse of her actual full power.

Charlie's feisty yet sweet and caring girlfriend, who tries to support her despite her own doubts. She

When not doing his multiple roles at the hotel, Alastor also runs his radio show on the side.former Exorcist.



->See his [[Characters/HazbinHotelAlastor page]] for tropes relating to Alastor.

to:

->See * ACupAngst: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Angel and Niffty poke fun at her having small breasts, but she's only mildly annoyed about it and ignores them.
* AccidentalMisnaming: Other than Charlie it doesn't seem anyone can get her name right. It's in part being both unusual but close enough to other more common names people assume they misheard.
* ActionGirlfriend: Downplayed. While Charlie is capable of [[ActionGirl kicking ass]] when the situation has truly become dire (like the Hotel being directly attacked by the Exorcists for one), Vaggie is the one who will resort to violence the quickest if she feels there's a threat.
* ActorAllusion: A singing female character who can also talk in Spanish (well, in profanity) with South American roots. Unsurprisingly, [[WesternAnimation/{{Encanto}} her voice actor had already done that role before.]]
* AlienBlood: It's eventually revealed that she has gold-colored blood due to actually being an Angel, contrasting the Sinners and Hellborn demons--who have a variety of blood colors.
* AllForNothing: Vaggie keeping her FallenAngel Exorcist past a secret from Charlie out of shame turned out to be all for not. While Charlie was upset and hurt by the reveal, it stemmed from Vaggie lying about said past than actually being an Exorcist; and the other Hotel residents are rather blase about the entire reveal (if anything, the worst she gets is some teasing), and if her encounter with Carmilla Carmine is any indication, even Overlords don't seem to care much about it. In other words, Vaggie had nothing to worry about if she had been honest with Charlie from the beginning.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: While it's unknown if Vaggie was well-liked among the Exorcist Angels prior to being [[FallenAngel abandoned]], she's this to them in the present. They all give a chorus of "boos" when Adam brings her up and cheer when he offers them a reward for her death.
-->'''Lute:''' Rip Vaggie's cunt-mouth out her ass!
* AlmightyJanitor: She seems like just an ordinary Sinner but is actually a [[FallenAngel former Exorcist]]. Angels in the Hellaverse are inherently stronger than demons and the Exorcists have been completely unopposed in their slaughter of Sinners for untold centuries until the start of the series due to how badly they outgun them, meaning that while Vaggie doesn't appear to be too notable in the angelic hierarchy, she is still stronger than the vast majority of Sinners in Hell.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Her skin is ashen gray.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: The reveal that Vaggie is a FallenAngel rather than a sinner brings her backstory into question. An official source has made mention of her being Salvadoran and having died sometime in the 2010s, but it's also mentioned that Adam gave her the name Vaggie and that she learned to build trust by fighting. Was Vaggie a human who ascended to Heaven, got a name change later, and learned to fight? Or was she an angel born in Heaven and given her name after racking up a bunch of kills during her stint as an Exorcist? The fact that she speaks Spanish and looks fairly human-like implies that the backstory of her being human once is true, but it's still unclear.
* AngelicBeauty: Vaggie turns out to be a FallenAngel, specifically an ex-Exorcist, and is a beautiful young woman. In fact, when Vaggie first met Charlie, the former has just been mutilated by [[AxCrazy Lute]], and was left in a state of mess, which included having a gouged-out eye. Even so, the moment Vaggie gave Charlie a grateful smile, the latter became romantically flustered.
* AnimalMotifs: Moths, though it's not immediately obvious. When seen from behind, her hair resembles folded moth wings. One can see how she'd be attracted to someone as bright as [[AllLovingHero Charlie]]. This is also reflected by how she was banished from Heaven in a brutal and painful fashion.
* TheAtoner: "Welcome to Heaven" reveals that she [[FallenAngel was an Exorcist]] who was [[BrokenAngel grounded, partially blinded]] and cast out by Lute and Adam after she spared a Sinner. After being found and patched up by Charlie, she eventually fell in love with her and devoted herself to Charlie's dream of redeeming Sinners, clearly regretful of her past and supporting her girlfriend in trying to stop the very Exterminations she was once a part of.
* AttackAttackAttack: Carmilla points out that the flaw in her fighting style and that of every other Exorcist is that she attacks with complete disregard for her own safety, since Sinners wouldn't ordinarily be capable of harming her.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: A rather unique example. Of the entire main cast, Vaggie was the only one who died in the 2010s, the year 2014 to be exact, while everyone else died earlier (sans Charlie, who was born a demon and is over a hundred years old). Thus, Vaggie is the youngest "death" of the group. How true that is though is called into question with TheReveal she's a FallenAngel rather than a Sinner, and that she didn't ''die'' to end up in Hell but was ''left'' for dead by Adam and Lute before Charlie found her. So, it's unclear if, like Adam, she died in her mortal life and became an Angel, or if the idea she "died" was a fabrication to go with her cover story of being a Sinner. Either way, she's only been in Hell for three years prior to the start of the series while the others have been there for decades--if not centuries.
* BadLiar: She's repeatedly shown to be an extremely bad liar, most notably when she doesn't want to go visit Heaven with Charlie and the best excuse she can think of is [[INeedToGoIronMyDog "I have that thing"]]. Serves as early {{Foreshadowing}} of her actually being an angel who naturally wouldn't have much experience with lying. She even realizes it InUniverse:
-->'''Vaggie:''' Fuck, I'm such a bad liar...
* BattleCouple: She and her girlfriend Charlie fight side-by-side when Adam and the Exterminators come to attack the Hotel.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: "Welcome to Heaven" shows Vaggie and Charlie's first meeting, which came directly after Adam and Lute mutilated Vaggie and left her for dead. Charlie, upon seeing the sorry state Vaggie was in, wasted no time in bandaging her up, which caused Vaggie to fall for her.
* BenevolentBoss: Of a different sort than [[WideEyedIdealist Charlie]], as after her girlfriend, Vaggie is the second-in-command, being the manager. And while Vaggie can be short-tempered, strict, bossy, and judgmental, she is by ''no'' means a cruel person. While she's flawed, she's also proven to be protective, respectful, and loyal person to the Hotel occupants. And before she goes to get vital information from Carmilla Carmine on how to defeat the Exorcist Angels, Vaggie doesn't force the residents to stay and fight, but [[LineInTheSand allows them the choice to leave for their own safety]]; and during this moment, her [[ExpressiveAccessory bow]] droops down in sadness, showing how she's come to care about them during their time together.
* BewareTheQuietOnes: Vaggie is a quiet, emotionally guarded person who has a hard time opening up about her feelings, sometimes even to Charlie. However, she's a skilled spear user, has a sharp mind, and proves to be [[PintSizedPowerhouse stronger than her short height implies]]. Then, it's revealed she was once a ruthless Exorcist Angel, with Adam even referring to her as "one of [his] top girls" and states that Vaggie's kill count was in the ''thousands''. This may mean she has a higher kill count than ''[[TheDreaded Alastor]]''.
* BilingualBonus: She angrily mutters "come mierda malparido" [[note]]Spanish for "eat shit, motherfucker"[[/note]] while in the limousine, and later calls Alastor a "cabrón hijo de perra"[[note]]Spanish for "bastard son of a bitch"[[/note]] right in front of
his [[Characters/HazbinHotelAlastor page]] face.
* BloodKnight: Possibly due to her angelic nature, Vaggie actually enjoys violence and fighting. She was one of Heaven's top exorcists raking up thousands of kills by herself, her idea of a bonding exercise is to take the Hotel patrons out to a battlefield and have them look out
for tropes relating each other, and right before the battle Vaggie admits that she's really excited and hasn't been able to Alastor.stab anything and really mean it for a long time.
* BodyguardingABadass: As Charlie's self-appointed protector; on paper, Charlie is leagues more powerful than Vaggie ever could be. But since Charlie is too nice to wield that power except in rare circumstances, Vaggie fights on her behalf.
* BoomerangBigot: She's a FallenAngel and has often told Charlie negative things about angels (i.e., they can't be trusted). Given her guilt and self-loathing over her past as an Exorcist and that she was mutilated and abandoned by her superiors for showing a demon child mercy, her attitude is justified.
* BoxingLessonsForSuperman: In "Hello Rosie", Carmilla drives in how the fighting style she and the other Exorcists use leaves themselves wide open if they're facing someone that can hurt them, and drills in some advice on how to overcome these flaws.
* BraidsOfAction: She mentions her long hair gets in the way when she's fighting, so she wears it in a high ponytail when she knows she's heading for battle. She had short hair back when she was an exorcist and first learned how to fight.
* BrokenAngel: After Lute caught her sparing a demon child, she proceeded to gouge out Vaggie's left eye, then tore her wings off her back as Adam took her halo, the two leaving her a bloody mess. Had Charlie not found her, she likely would have bled to death in an alleyway. Losing these traits at least let Vaggie use the cover story she was a Sinner. During her training session with Carmilla in the episode "Hello, Rosie!", she gains a new pair of wings, though she can retract them into her back.
* BrutalHonesty: Whenever Charlie is too nice to properly criticize something, Vaggie is there to give the unfiltered version of Charlie's thoughts. Emphasized in the first episode when Charlie is trying not to badmouth Alastor's rather insulting commercial.
-->'''Charlie:''' We want people to ''want'' to come here, ''this'' makes it look...ummm...\\
'''Vaggie:''' Bad. The word you're looking for is "bad".
* BuffySpeak: When she tries to object to a bar in the Hotel.
-->'''Vaggie:''' This is supposed to be a place that discourages sin! Not some kind of... mouth... brothel... man-cave!
* BullyingADragon: She's brave enough to threaten '''[[TheDreaded Alastor]]''' with her spear, despite knowing ''exactly'' who he is and the terrible powers he wields. It makes more sense after the reveal that she's a FallenAngel; as great as Alastor's powers are, Vaggie has no reason to believe he is any more of a threat to her than any other Sinner. [[MuggingTheMonster That in turn means everyone who gets on her nerves in the series is taunting one of the people who go on a yearly unopposed murderous rampage and is mostly kept alive by Vaggie not wanting to look like a monster in front of Charlie]]. Ultimately a [[ZigZaggingTrope zig-zagged example]], as while she certainly had the means to kill someone like Alastor, Carmilla Carmine points out her overall fighting technique is [[AttackAttackAttack rather sloppy]]. Vaggie somewhat overcomes this through [[BoxingLessonsForSuperman Carmilla pointing out these flaws]], but her rematch with Lute proves that she still has a long way to go to overcome this issue.
* ButtMonkey: In the pilot, she watches her girlfriend humiliate herself live on camera, is constantly disrespected by Angel Dust, and gets shoved around and teased by Alastor.
* CaptainSmoothAndSergeantRough: Charlie is the undisputed leader of the Hotel and is able to use her charisma to inspire people to follow along with her vision, Vaggie is her undisputed second-in-command and treats the guests as though she's their drill sergeant, using more practical and aggressive methods to force the guests to play along.
* CategoryTraitor: Vaggie is seen as this by both Lute and Adam, especially the former, for sparing a Sinner child instead of executing him. A brief moment with the other Exterminators in "The Show Must Go On" implies that they also see Vaggie as this.
* CharacterBlog: She runs the hotel's official Instagram account that she shares with Charlie called [[https://instagram.com/hotel_magnement/ hotel_magnement]].
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: A minor case. In the Pilot, she was vocally opposed to Husk running a bar at the hotel, saying their job is to ''discourage'' sin and that alcohol would just be temptation, leaning closer to a DryCrusader. In the series proper, she's a lot more open to the idea, even telling Angel Dust off for flirting with Husk so he could focus on his job, and Husk later stating she regularly drinks there, letting him hear her woes when she succumbs to InVinoVeritas. She was also much more irritable with other demons, not hesitating to yell at them for their behavior (especially Angel Dust who is their sole patron), but in the series, while bossy, she doesn't seem nearly as angry or fed up. Lastly, the pilot treats her as a ButtMonkey, having her be disrespected or ignored by multiple characters, she's taken much more seriously in the show.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Her expression when seeing Charlie and Emily holding hands is a wide-eyed DeathGlare.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: She does a lot to manage her girlfriend's oddities. Her first scene is keeping Charlie focused on a script they prepared together and ''not'' to sing. Then there's her reaction to Charlie's [[MissingStepsPlan "plan"]] for the hotel, which is supportive but tempered with more down-to-earth expectations.
* CombatPragmatist: While fighting Lute inside the hotel, she brings down a section of collapsed wall on top of her.
* TheConfidant: Charlie tells her ''everything'' -- her hopes, dreams, fears, insecurities, and even her favorite deodorant.
* ControlFreak: Her [[https://twitter.com/HazbinHotel/status/992872171272732672 official bio]] describes her as a control freak. In the pilot, this is best displayed when she objects to Alastor adding a bar to the hotel, on the reason that it's supposed to be a place that discourages sin.
* CostumeEvolution: From the pilot to the series, Vaggie's attire is redesigned from a casual white dress and mismatched stockings (one striped, one solid) to a more businesslike red blouse and black skirt with stockings that match.
* CrazyEnoughToWork: In "Scrambled Eggs," her idea of a trust exercise is literally throwing everyone off a roof into an active war zone and making them fight for their lives together. It works.
* CruelMercy: She lets [[ArchEnemy Lute]] live because she thinks that having her live with the shame of being spared by a "miserable failure" like herself is preferable over killing her outright. Of course, this turns out to have been [[NiceJobBreakingItHero a bad idea]] because Lute is too fanatically focused on killing sinners to allow it to slow her down, even tearing off her own arm in order to resume the fight. The death of Adam and the first failure of their exterminations only forces Lute to re-commit their genocidal end goal for another time, and she ends up taking Adam's place in leading the Exorcists, now more focused than ever on making Charlie and the hotel inhabitants pay.
* CuteLittleFangs: While not as prominent as Charlie's, Vaggie's are visible on occasion. (They were especially notable during the Pilot, where [[ScaryTeeth her entire mouth would occasionally seemed to be filled with them]], but that appears to have been a bit of early character design that was changed.) Interestingly, she does not appear to have had them prior to her fall. Though given that Lucifer has a far more [[OneWingedAngel monstrous, inherently demonic form]] despite still being a (fallen) seraphim, it's most likely that prolonged exposure to Hell causes angels to slowly adapt more demonic traits. This is supported by the fact Lucifer was banished since the accidental creation of Hell, while Vaggie was punished and kicked out from Heaven 3 years before the events of the pilot.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Heavily implied, since in "Scrambled Eggs," her idea of building trust among the crew is how she learned trust: serving in combat together. Though it turns out, her own past was more complex. She may or may not have been involved in Hell's many turf wars, but the truth is that she was a former Exorcist partaking in the annual purge when she realized a demon she was hunting down was just a child, and sparing the kid cost her everything. And while not fully explored, Vaggie's sour expressions throughout the performance of "Welcome to Heaven" also implies that even before she was abandoned, she had grown disillusioned with Heaven.
* DashingHispanic: Downplayed, in that Vaggie is not flamboyant or flashy but actually stoic and quiet. However, she is of Salvadoran descent, speaks fluent Spanish, and has shown to be an expert in using her spear in combat.
* DeadpanSnarker: While she does her best to take thing seriously compared to Charlie, she does crack jokes every now and then at the expense of those who have it coming.
* DealWithTheDevil: Downplayed. In the first episode, she makes a deal with Alastor -- he helps make a proper commercial for the Hotel if she doesn't ask him to be involved with televisions anymore. And unlike most of the deals in this universe, their deal isn't a MagicallyBindingContract but a verbal promise.
* DeclarationOfProtection: In "Scrambled Eggs", she sings an entire song about how she'll do whatever it takes to protect Charlie.
-->''When I saw your face\\
You made me feel like a stranger in a brand new place\\
And it felt so good to be understood\\
But there's so much I wished that I could say\\
So I... I'll be your armor\\
Do whatever it takes, I'll make the mistakes\\
I'll spend my life being your partner''
* DemonOfHumanOrigin: Like all sinners, she was once a human before dying and becoming a demon in Hell. {{Subverted|Trope}} when it's revealed she's actually a FallenAngel, or perhaps just a fired Angel. She used to be one of the Exorcists who came down from Heaven for the extermination, but when she showed a demon mercy, Lute gouged out her eye, and berated her for her actions before tearing her wings off and Adam took her Halo. Stranded in Hell, she had little choice but to pose as a sinner.
* DeviousDaggers: Favors bladed weapons and throws at Angel Dust with remarkable accuracy, to stop him from playing with the window slider in the limo. Unsurprising, given her background as a former Exorcist who has killed thousands of demons using the same sharp weapons before.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Confronts Alastor at spear-point in "Let's Misbehave" and insults him to his face; the Cthulhu part comes with the fact he's [[TheDreaded feared by the denizens of Hell]] and is both a [[SerialKiller mass killer]] and [[TheChessmaster cunning mastermind]]. Vaggie, along with Charlie and Angel, are lucky that he doesn't want to harm them, [[DoNotTauntCthulhu as he makes it clear that he is more than capable of doing so]]. However, with the reveal that Vaggie was once an exorcist, and given that as a rule angels are inherently more powerful than demons, it's very likely that she's strong enough to match Alastor anyway.
* DidYouJustRomanceCthulhu: She's a DemonOfHumanOrigin who's in a relationship with the Devil's daughter. At least on the surface. In truth, she's an exiled Exorcist who was left behind by Lute and Adam after sparing a demon child during an extermination. This slightly closes the power gap between them although Charlie is still far stronger due to being half Seraphim.
* DoesNotLikeMen: She gets accused of this by Angel, and her silent response might be implying some truth to that. This doesn't seem to carry over into the series proper, given she's just as [[GoodIsNotNice guarded, but reasonable]] with men as she is with anyone else. Which is almost impressive considering her [[BadBoss treatment]] at the hands of [[StrawMisogynist the first man]].
* TheDogBitesBack: When she was an exorcist angel, Adam let Lute slash out her eye and tear off her wings for the sin of sparing a demon child, and they left her for dead in Hell. Then, he tried to blackmail her into helping them shut the hotel down, and revealed her past to Charlie to try and ruin their relationship. So when he dies a humiliating and painful death as Niffty stabs him numerous times, Vaggie watches the spectacle with a huge smile and enjoys watching her ex-boss get what's coming to him.
* DrillSergeantNasty: She tends to act like drill sergent whenever she tries to act authoritarian, such as in "Scrambled Eggs" when she forces Angel and Sir Pentious into a turf war battle so they can become FireForgedFriends and in "Dad Beat Dad" when she orders the staff to prepare for Lucifer's arrival. As she's a former Exorcist angel, who essentially act like soldiers, she likely learnt the attitude from her military-like training in Heaven.
* DryCrusader: Implied, since she strongly objects to the hotel serving alcohol, though moreso because it's an activity that leads to sin rather than taking issue with it by itself.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Vaggie was once a ruthless Angel Exorcist, racking up kills in the ''thousands''. However, she was unable to kill a Sinner child and allowed him to escape. This would lead to her getting mutilated and kicked out of Heaven. However, her act of moral restraint would also lead to her being rescued and tended to by Charlie, which would lead to their romance and Vaggie's official HeelFaceTurn.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: When she was an Exorcist, her hair was short, and looked like Lute's. In the present, it's much longer, almost as if it's meant to be a replacement for her wings that were torn off. It also helped her disguise herself as a moth-demon Sinner due to resembling.
* ExpressiveAccessory: Her bow curves and sharpens whenever she gets particularly pissed, making it look like a pair of horns. And in rare moments of sadness, her bow will flop down.
* EyepatchOfPower: She wears an eyepatch with a pink X over her left eye; the X shows through her hair at all times, though.
* EyeScream: When she was exiled from Heaven Lute stabbed her in her left eye, tore it out and crushed it.
* FallenAngel: She was exiled from Heaven for showing mercy to a demon child during one of the Exterminations. Lute took out Vaggie's eye, removed her halo, and sliced off her wings before leaving her to die. However, Vaggie never told Charlie this fact; Charlie only finds out in "Welcome to Heaven" when Adam spills the beans [[EvilIsPetty just to spite her and Charlie]].
* FashionableAsymmetry: In the pilot, her left stocking has pink stripes while her right one is flat grey, her left glove is fingerless while her right has fingers, and her undershirt only has a left shoulder strap. Her design for the series proper does away with this and makes her much more symmetrical.
* {{Flight}}: As a FallenAngel, she used to have wings and the ability to fly. After an impromptu training lesson from Carmilla, Vaggie is able to regrow them, and they now act as RetractableAppendages.
* FlorenceNightingaleEffect: Charlie taking in and helping Vaggie heal from her wounds may not be the only reason Vaggie fell for her, but it certainly formed a solid bedrock to build upon.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Her spear and X-marked eyepatch, both reminiscent of Exorcists, were right in front of the audience the entire time, and Carmilla even says [[PaperThinDisguise it's very obvious]]. Further, Vaggie regularly slips and refers to Sinners and Hell as ''Charlie's'' people and realm, suggesting she sees herself as distinct from them.
* FormerBigot: It's revealed later on that Vaggie used to be an Exorcist Angel, and thus, initially held the same "Sinners are all bad and must be executed" views as her former fellow companions. After sparing a demon child, she was left mutilated and abandoned by her superiors before being found and rescued by Charlie. In the present, Vaggie harbors no prejudice towards Sinners, and any hatred is for a specific few for justified reasons. [[ZigZaggingTrope That being said]], she [[BoomerangBigot sure hates angels now]].
* FriendlessBackground: Faustisse revealed that outside of Charlie she doesn't have any friends. This might be because most of her friends are in Heaven.
* GoblinFace: Her face gets comically exaggerated wrinkles whenever she's truly angry.
* GoodIsNotNice: Vaggie is determined and loyal to Charlie's lofty goals, protective over the Hotel staff/residents, and is one of the more moral characters in the show. She's also the most emotionally guarded and can be ruthless when pushed.
* GoodWingsEvilWings: The Exorcists have black-lined wings with black stripes to demonstrate that the supposedly angelic creatures are anything but, a trait Vaggie shared when she was one of them. When she grows her wings back, they're now grey to match her hair, showing that Vaggie has moved beyond her past.
* GratuitousSpanish: She [[ForeignCussWord swears in Spanish]] when she confronts Alastor, referring to him as "Cabrón hijo de perra".[[note]]Spanish for "Bastard son of a bitch".[[/note]]
* GrowingWings: In "Hello Rosie", Vaggie manages to regrow the wings that Lute had ripped off of her. "The Show Must Go On" shows that she can apparently let them out and retract them at will, though she spends most of the time with them hidden.
* HairTriggerTemper: The only person she's calm around is Charlie, but with everyone else it's very easy to piss her off, something both Angel and Alastor take great pleasure in doing. By the time of the series, while her temper is still there, she's considerably more mellow.
* HairWings: In her pilot design, Vaggie's long hair combined with the stripes at its ends bore a resemblance to moth wings. In the series, her hair is shaped like folded moth wings.
* HandicappedBadass: PlayedWith. Despite missing an eye, and therefore lacking depth perception, her aim is perfect when throwing a knife at Angel Dust and pointing a spear at Alastor. Possibly {{justified|Trope}} given how she's a former Exorcist and used to be one of Adam's top members so it's likely she's just ''that'' competent with weapons after all the training she received in Heaven.
* HeelFaceTurn: In the past she was one of the most bloodthirsty and ruthless Exorcists under Adam's command. But after she became a FallenAngel for sparing a demon child instead of killing them, and met Charlie shortly after, she goes on great lengths to support Charlie's dream.
* HiddenDepths:
** {{Invoked|Trope}}, as WordOfGod described her as a skilled dancer.
** The prequel comics shows Vaggie being a talented artist.
** She was an Exorcist. And since she was caught in the act of showing a demon mercy, she had all of her angelic trappings stripped away from her (and an eye), subsequently left for dead and stranded in Hell, where she was nursed back to health by Charlie, falling for her in the process.
* HidingBehindYourBangs: She's a guarded woman whose bangs spill over the left side of her head, which covers her missing eye.
* HidingYourHeritage: Justified. Vaggie was once an Exorcist Angel but was left near death by Lute and Adam because she spared a demon child. Given she's from a group of people who perform yearly exterminations in Hell, she had to hide her true origins for her own safety. Also, she fell in love with the Princess of Hell, so not wanting to hurt her girlfriend was also a huge factor.
* HolyHalo: She used to have one as an Exorcist angel, but Lute ripped it off along with her eye and wings while punishing her for sparing a demon child.
* HonestAdvisor: To Charlie, as she is not only the manager of the Hotel but also the former's girlfriend and main confidant. Vaggie will always be gently but firmly honest with Charlie about what may be best for them and the Hotel. To everyone else, Vaggie will still be direct but [[BrutalHonesty more brutal]] in manner, especially if they are mocking to her or Charlie.
* HonorBeforeReason: She spares Lute out of a desire to inflict CruelMercy upon her, which leaves Lute incapacitated for all about a minute before the exorcist is immediately back on the attack, preventing her from helping Charlie when fighting Adam.
* HotConsort: Vaggie is a regular Sinner in a committed and loving relationship with the Princess of Hell. Even after TheReveal that the former is a FallenAngel doesn't change her from this trope. In fact, even with her eye gouged out, Charlie still became romantically flustered when the former smiled at her.
* HumanoidAbomination: She's among the most human-looking demons in Hell. This is despite actually being a FallenAngel.
* HunterOfHerOwnKind: When it's discovered that Exorcist Angels ''can'' be injured, despite initial shock at the reveal, Vaggie doesn't hesitate to help with getting the information from Carmilla Carmine under Charlie's orders. During the party before the fight against the Exorcists, Vaggie tells Charlie she's actually happy that she's going to stab something and for the right reasons. And during the battle, Vaggie doesn't hold back against killing them, unlike [[ApologeticAttacker Charlie]].
* HypercompetentSidekick: Vaggie is the undisputed [[NumberTwo second-in-command]] at the Hazbin Hotel and acts as the more serious, grounded counterpart to Charlie's flighty, sometimes overly idealistic standings. She also serves as being a honest consultant to Charlie in times the latter is need of help.
* IHatePastMe: It's implied, especially by some of the lines in "Out For Love", that Vaggie hates and regrets her past as an Exorcist.
* InformedAttribute: She's stated to be fashioned after a Moth, but aside from her hair vaguely resembling folded up Moth wings, there's nothing suggesting such like the more obvious {{animal motif}}s other Sinners have. Becomes {{justified|Trope}} with the reveal she's not a Sinner at all, but an Angel, her hair originally being much shorter and similar to Lute's, the claim of her being a Moth serving to go with her cover story she's a Sinner, and a bit of foreshadowing to the idea her wings were torn off, as "ripping the wings off a moth" is a term associated with torturing someone like she was.
* InsecureLoveInterest: "Scrambled Eggs" shows that she feels unworthy of being Charlie's girlfriend and thinks that if she can't help her, her existence is meaningless. Made even more apparent in "Welcome To Heaven" with TheReveal that Vaggie is a former Exorcist who had a change of heart and wound up being left for dead by Lute and Adam. Her dedication to Charlie comes from her guilt over being an Exorcist mixed with her guilt over having never told Charlie her true identity.
* InterspeciesRomance: With Charlie. While the former is half-Seraphim Angel and half demon, Vaggie turns out to be a FallenAngel.
* {{Irony}}:
** Despite angels being often thought of as kindly, noble figures, Vaggie became a FallenAngel because she showed mercy to a Sinner child.
** She happens to be the first person who tried to redeem herself with Charlie's help, and she's a literal FallenAngel.
** Vaggie was once a ruthless Exorcist Angel, with Adam implying she has murdered ''thousands'' of Sinners. Now, she is protective towards the Sinner occupants of the Hotel meant to redeem them and is also the steadfast, loyal girlfriend NumberTwo to the Princess of Hell.
* ItsPersonalWithTheDragon: Lute acts as Vaggie's ArchEnemy, being the one who sliced out her eye and ripped off her wings.
* ItWasWithYouAllAlong: In "Hello Rosie", Vaggie goes to Carmilla to find the secret of killing Exorcists, only for Carmilla to tell her that angelic steel, like her spear, is the key. Vaggie is surprised to find out that it's that simple instead of some secret weapon that Carmilla, Hell's top arms dealer, came up with, wondering [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe how no one else had figured it out if it's really that simple]].
* JerkassHasAPoint:
** In the pilot, Vaggie's near-murderous anger at Angel Dust is understandable given how his actions completely ruined Charlie's promotion of the Happy Hotel.
** Her extreme distrust of Alastor is ''well'' within reason given how the Overlord is TheDreaded who also admits to ''not'' wanting to see the Hotel succeed. Charlie agrees with her during a private chat, but she forces herself to work with him to make sure the Hotel is a success.
** While justifiably annoyed with Alastor's taunts and mocking, Vaggie makes an accurate note towards the Overlord -- that if he doesn't actually help get the Hotel more notoriety than Sinners won't want to check in and possibly fail at being redeemed, meaning his whole goal of wanting to be entertained by their supposed futile efforts won't happen. This actually gets to Alastor, allowing him to help her out.
** Vaggie's method of getting the Hotel residents to bond is via surviving a turf war is, as Charlie points out, hilariously over-the-top, the former's seemingly crazy idea actually works. When Vaggie returns to the Hotel, she is delightfully surprised that the once distrustful, fighting occupants are now getting along.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Of a different sort than Angel Dust, and mostly justified. She seems to genuinely be a decent person, and she has a nice, stable relationship with her girlfriend Charlie. The fact that she's grumpy and hostile towards other demons is down to the fact that they're all bastards who deliberately antagonize her and her girlfriend. In the series proper, Vaggie's hot temperedness is downplayed, and while still bossy and judgmental, she shows a softer side to the other Hotel occupants.
* KarmicJackpot: Vaggie was once a ruthless and bloodthirsty Exorcist Angel but couldn't bring herself to kill a Sinner child and let him escape. However, her superiors discovered her act and punished her for it. She would've most likely died of her wounds if she hadn't been found and nurtured by Charlie on that same night. While most of her past as an Exorcist is still a mystery and Vaggie sparing the Sinner child cost her place in Heaven, it's implied she was disillusioned with her old home before she had been abandoned. Even so, with her act of mercy, Vaggie would start a happily committed relationship with Charlie, one of the gentlest and kindest people in all of Hell. And through helping Charlie with the Hotel, Vaggie would also gain genuine friends who would protect and care for her.
* KnightInSourArmor: Vaggie may be skeptical and have a sour disposition, but she's determined to help Charlie redeem Sinners.
* LadyAndKnight: A same-sex variant, Vaggie is the White Knight to Charlie's Bright Lady. Best illustrated in the song "Whatever it Takes", where Vaggie [[DeclarationOfProtection declares]] she'll be Charlie's "armor".
* TheLancer: She's the partner and closest ally of Charlie, who's the main heroine of the story, usually trying to be a voice of reason to counterbalance Charlie's idealism and being ''way'' more willing to resort to violence in a situation than her.
* LeftForDead: After being caught sparing a Sinner child, Lute mutilates Vaggie and the former (with Adam) leave her to presumably die from her wounds.
* LetMeAtHim: During Alastor's VillainSong, Angel can be seen holding back an enraged Vaggie from attacking him.
* LiarRevealed: Downplayed to "Omitting the Truth Revealed", but Vaggie is desperate to make sure Charlie never finds out her status as a FallenAngel, to the point that she [[AintTooProudToBeg begs Adam to not tell her]], and her reaction to Charlie's horror and devastation to Vaggie's past as a former Exorcist is clear regret. Where it is downplayed is that the others' reactions are pretty blasé besides Charlie, who herself seems more hurt and distant because Vaggie felt she couldn't tell her the truth in the first place. This also deconstructed by the fact that the only reason why she hid her true origins to Charlie is because she was ashamed of being the same thing that mercilessly slaughtered thousands of Sinners, and because at this point knowing the truth wouldn't matter anyway, as in her 3 years old relationship with Charlie, Vaggie proved to be the most loyal supporter of the latter's dream to redeem damned souls and a sweet girlfriend.
* LightIsGood: She is actually a fallen angel who wants to try her best redeem sinners to support her girlfriend's dreams.
* LikeParentLikeSpouse: Vaggie has a number of similarities to her girlfriend's father, Lucifer Morningstar. The biggest is that they're both {{fallen angel}}s -- and they're the only two known instances of such in the setting, although Charlie wasn't aware of this for a long time -- and thematically, both of them were cast out of Heaven for going against what was expected of them (Vaggie refusing to kill a Sinner child, Lucifer offering Free Will to humanity). Besides that, both of them are very insecure about themselves, including how they can be a good girlfriend/father to Charlie but are still highly protective and loving of the Princess; and while Vaggie fully supports her girlfriend's goals, she also has a similar cynicism regarding both Sinners and Heaven. Other similarities between the duo are both being way [[PintSizedPowerhouse stronger than their short height implies]], having a [[BloodKnight liking for battle]], and [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer not being remembered fondly by their respective former associates]] in Heaven (the Exorcists for Vaggie, the other Seraphim for Lucifer). They also both share a duet with Charlie expressing how important she is to them, with Vaggie's being a reprise of Lucifer's.
* LineInTheSand: After Adam announces his plans to attack the Hotel first and foremost next Extermination, Vaggie notes to the other residents that they didn't sign up for a war and she understands if they choose now to leave. When she and Charlie return however, [[TrueCompanions they are all still there baricading the Hotel ready for the Exorcists.]]
* LipstickLesbian: Very feminine presenting and confirmed as a lesbian.
* LoveRedeems: Vaggie was once a ruthless Exorcist Angel before beng abandoned by her superiors for showing mercy towards a Sinner child. Afterwards, she was found and nursed back to health by her future girlfriend, Charlie. And Vaggie implies in the "More Than Anything" reprise that it was the friendship (and eventual) romantic love she and the Princess have for each other, helped further the former's redemption.
* MasculineFeminineGayCouple: PlayedWith in regard to her relationship with Charlie. Vaggie dresses more feminine than Charlie, but she acts in a more stereotypically masculine manner. She's grumpy and closed off, and at the same time very brave and protective of her girlfriend.
* MeaningfulRename: Downplayed. When she was an Exorcist, Adam gave her, her name; however, the pronunciation was a soft "g". In the present, she still uses the name but with a hard "g" sound.
* MsExposition: Tells Angel Dust about who the Radio Demon is when he turns out to be clueless.
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Vaggie is a genuinely good person and may be the only one among Sinners, who are described to be inherently irredeemable. Aside from being [[MurderIsTheBestSolution quick to point weapons at people]] despite the Hotel's principles of trust and forgiveness, and her possible military background, her presence in Hell is a mystery. As it turns out, Vaggie is a genuinely good person... among the ''Exorcists'', who are shown to be inherently psychopathic, murderous assholes. It turns out because she's ''not'' [[MurderIsTheBestSolution a complete murder freak]] and chose to spare a demon child, she was mutilated and exiled to Hell for aiding the enemy. As a result, she tries to warn Charlie that the Exorcists can't be trusted, calling them bloodthirsty and deranged.
* MysteriousPast: We know little of her past prior to the hotel, but her DrillSergeantNasty attitude in "Scrambled Eggs" and the way she talks about it implies that she was in some kind of military at some point. "Welcome to Heaven" reveals that she's a FallenAngel, a former Exorcist that Adam and Lute kicked out and left for dead because she spared a demon child, but aside from her being one of Adam's top soldiers nothing about her past is revealed.
* NeatFreak: According to Viv in [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=MqGEHNy3Wxo&t=6250 a livestream]], Vaggie is kind of a neat freak.
* NighInvulnerable: As a former Exorcist, Vaggie is nearly impossible to harm by any means except Angelic weaponry. Carmilla notes that this has given her a habit of fighting in a way that exposes herself, since she's accustomed to not needing to bother with defense.
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: The only reason Vaggie is no longer an Exorcist is due to [[WouldntHurtAChild sparing a demon child]]. This cost her [[EyeScream an eye]] and her wings, and she was left to die.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Downplayed in both cases.
** Vaggie's Exorcist wings look very similar to her former associates but if one were to look [[https://phoenixlionme.tumblr.com/post/744407356884074496 closely]], she has one defining feature separating her from them -- Vaggie was the only Exorcist with one stripe on her wings, instead of two. And even after she regrows a new pair, she still has the one stripe. Why she only had one stripe as opposed to two is currently unknown.
** During the annual Exterminations, Exorcist Angels were known to sport sadistic smiles when killing the Sinners. However, even while wearing her mask, Vaggie doesn't smile during the genocide but rather a frowning, angry expression.
* NotSoAboveItAll:
** Despite her stance against the bar being installed, Vaggie still drinks to the point of being drunk according to Husk's comments on Episode 4.
** When Niffty kills Adam in Episode 8, unlike everyone else, who is utterly shocked, Vaggie has a massive grin on her face and looks like she's on the verge of outright [[{{Squee}} squeeing]].
* NumberTwo: She acts as Charlie's right-hand, as Vaggie is the manager of the Hotel.
* OnlySaneWoman: She seems to be the voice of reason among the main trio. She handles calling out Angel Dust and rightly points out to Charlie that letting Alastor help them is a bad idea. However, Vaggie relents due to wanting Charlie's plan to work.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** Even with their disagreements, Vaggie would always stand beside Charlie in the latter's endeavors while voicing her honest opinions. However, in the beginning of "Welcome to Heaven", Vaggie tries to ([[BadLiar badly]]) lie to Charlie about why she can't go to Heaven with her. And while she does relent, this is an important piece of foreshadowing of Vaggie's unusual behavior - She's a FallenAngel Exorcist who was abandoned by her superiors for sparing a Sinner child and doesn't want to go to Heaven and risk Charlie finding out.
** Vaggie doesn't easily show fear against enemies. But when [[BadBoss Adam]] is about to reveal Vaggie's past as a former Exorcist Angel to Charlie, Vaggie ''begs'' him not to in a genuinely scared voice.
* OppositesAttract: She and Charlie have opposing personalities: Charlie is upbeat, perky, constantly cheerful, and prone to breaking out in song. Vaggie is practical, perpetually frowns, has a temper, and is prone to resorting to violence. However, this is only on the surface level, and their relationship is deeper and more complex. Both are the most morally upright characters (granted, not a high bar), Charlie isn't as naive as her personality would imply and her motivation is her sorrow at seeing her people massacred each year, and Vaggie does believe in Charlie's dream even if she's skeptical if it can be achieved. This is also reflected by their backgrounds: Charlie is a hellborn demon, while Vaggie is a FallenAngel and a former Exorcist.
* PaperThinDisguise:
** While most sinners have obvious AnimalMotifs or are outright FunnyAnimals [[note]](or are obviously inhuman in [[NonHumanHead some]] [[BigRedDevil other]] [[{{Cyclops}} way]])[[/note]], Vaggie looks entirely human with her hair as the only indicator of her supposed moth theme. As it turns out this was an attempt to disguise her true nature as an Exorcist, who are {{Winged Humanoid}}s with no animalistic traits. The obviousness of her true identity is even {{lampshaded}} by Carmilla.
--->'''Carmilla:''' You have a giant "X" over your eye and wield an angelic spear. It's not rocket science.
** It ends up the same for the other side as well. While the telling traits get past everyone else in Heaven, Adam lampshades her overconfidence thinking he and Lute wouldn't recognise her with just a clothes and hair change.
* PerpetualFrowner: When she's not looking like she's about to murder someone, Vaggie tends to default into an annoyed-at-the-world frown. The only times she smiles is when talking to Charlie.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: She's the second shortest of the Hotel residents, after Niffty. However, despite her short height, Vaggie has proven to be stronger than she looks. During a training exercise, she was able to effortlessly grab, carry, and throw both the taller Sir Pentious and Angel Dust, with little effort. She turns out to be a FallenAngel, and angels are stronger than a vast majority of Hell's citizens, making her strength justified. And according to Adam, Vaggie was a ruthless Exterminator, with kills possibly in the thousands.
* PredatorTurnedProtector: Vaggie turned out to have been an Exorcist Angel three years prior to the series, as such she would murder a number of Sinners with little hesitation; according to Adam, her kill count was in the thousands. However, she couldn't bring herself to kill a Sinner child and was [[PunishedForSympathy punished]] for it by having her eye and wings ripped out. Thankfully, she was found by [[AllLovingHero Charlie]], and is now very dedicated to making sure Charlie's dream of redeeming Sinners come true. And, she has made it a [[DeclarationOfProtection vow]] to protect Charlie and the other demon Hotel occupants from danger, either from Hell or Heaven.
* PunishedForSympathy: Back when Vaggie was still an Exorcist, she encountered a terrified demon child and felt sorry enough for them to let them go away. The fact that she showed anything but complete disdain for demons and sinners led to [[GeneralRipper Lute]] cutting out her eye, ripping her wings off, and leaving her to die in Hell while the Exorcists finished the extermination and returned to Heaven.
* TheReliableOne: Vaggie is the most [[OnlySaneMan sane]] of the entire Hotel residents given Charlie's [[CloudCuckooLander flightiness]], Alastor's [[MoodSwinger unpredictability]], Husk's [[TheAlcoholic alcoholism]], Angel Dust's [[TheHedonist hedonism]], Niffty's [[AxCrazy psychoticness]], and Sir Pentious's [[IronButtMonkey slapstick magnet nature]]. At one point, Charlie states that Vaggie is the person she trusts the most. Which makes the reveal that Vaggie was a former Exorcist the whole time absolutely ''sting'' for the princess.
* RetractableAppendages: After she recovers her angel wings, she seemingly can retract them completely into her body at will.
* ScarsAreForever: Justified. Vaggie's eye was gouged out by Lute for "punishment" in sparing a Sinner child; the latter also ripped out Vaggie's first pair of wings. However, while she manages to regrow a new pair of the latter, she doesn't do so with the former. This is because Lute sliced out Vaggie's eye with her Angelic weapon, which turn out to be a weakness for Angels; but she didn't use said weapon on the latter's wings.
* ScaryTeeth: In the pilot she has a mouth full of sharp teeth that become more pronounced the more distressed she is.
* SexySecretary: In her final design, she somewhat has this aesthetic with her button-up blouse, tights, and short pencil skirt, plus her white-collar job, though she's actually the manager of the hotel.
* ShipperOnDeck: Vaggie gives a reassuring pat to Sir Pentious when the latter [[CannotSpitItOut attempts]] to confess his feelings to Cherri Bomb. She also pushes Charlie, also a shipper for the couple and is looking towards the couple in wide-eyed excitement, away to give said couple some [[LeaveTheTwoLovebirdsAlone privacy]].
* ShorterMeansSmarter: Downplayed. The other Hotel occupants aren't idiots and Vaggie has her own flaws as well. However, she is the most [[TheReliableOne reliable]] of them, often wanting to do the sensible solution in regard to a problem.
* ShoutOut: In [[https://twitter.com/VivziePop/status/942571980393349120 a tweet]], Viv drew Charlie and Vaggie as Jack Skellington and Sally from ''WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas'' respectively, noting the parallels the former couple had with the latter.
* SingingVoiceDissonance: When voicing Vaggie, Creator/StephanieBeatriz uses a fairly deep and almost masculine-sounding voice (very close to her delivery when playing [[Series/BrooklynNineNine Rosa]]), but uses her higher natural voice when singing, turning Vaggie into a mezzo-soprano instead of the expected alto.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: A same-sex example. Vaggie is deeply loyal to and in love with [[AntiAntiChrist Charlie]] for a number of the latter's positive qualities: [[NiceGirl kindness]], [[AllLovingHero compassion]], [[RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething selflessness]], [[HairOfGoldHeartOfGold gentleness]], and [[TheFettered being one of the most morally upright people in the show]]. Her portion of "[[DistantDuet Whatever It Takes]]" has Vaggie reveal snippets of what made her fall for Charlie when they first met: the demon princess made her feel like "a stranger in a brand-new place", possibly meaning how the former was a bright spot for her in [[CrapsackWorld Hell]]; she then sings how Charlie makes her feel understood. She mentions in "Masquerade" that one of the things she loves about Charlie is that she doesn't abuse her royal title to get what she wants. "Welcome to Heaven" reveals they first met after Vaggie was mutilated and left for dead by Lute and Adam; Charlie came to her aid and the reaction from her after Charlie bandaged her up implies that was the moment where her romantic feelings, if not friendship, for the Hell princess first appeared.
* SkeletonMotif: [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/hazbinhotel/images/0/05/10k_Thanks.jpg This]] official artwork has her wearing a skull themed dress with similar earrings.
* SourOutsideSadInside: A lot of her sour exterior is meant to hide her own self-loathing and inadequacies. She only tends to let her inner self out when alone, not even showing her issues to Charlie. Husk only knew about them because of her succumbing to InVinoVeritas whenever at his bar. It's implied these feelings stem from her past as an Exorcist and all the Sinners she's killed, as well as her lying to Charlie about her past and claiming she's a Sinner.
* SourSupporter: She's doubtful of whether Charlie's hotel will work, but she's still very supportive and invested in helping her.
* SpicyLatina: Downplayed. She's a Latina with a fiery temper, but it's not due to anger issues, it's from having many legitimate reasons to be pissed off. She's also not sexualized by the show.
* TheSpock: She seems to act as a voice of reason for Charlie and the main cast as a whole.
* TheStoic: Downplayed. While Vaggie does act as the voice of reason for the main cast and usually has a [[PerpetualFrowner frown]] on her face, she's also prone to letting her anger issues get ahead of her in stressful situations. Other than that, she ''does'' smile more in the TV series, but usually keeps a neutral expression for professional reasons.
* StraightMan: In many of her dynamics with other characters, Vaggie plays the role of straight man. Whether it's being the more grounded realistic girlfriend to Charlie's naïve idealistic character or being [[StraightManAndWiseGuy someone who takes things seriously to a wisecracker]] like Angel Dust.
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: While it's hard to notice given Vaggie's more prominent pink sclera, she does have a yellow-colored iris. This would serve as an early, subtle hint of her true Angelic heritage.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: She hates that [[TheHedonist Angel Dust]] isn't taking the hotel's mission seriously, she does not think that working with [[TheDreaded Alastor the Radio Demon]] is a good idea and is very reluctant to allow Sir Pentious to become a guest of the hotel after he's outed as TheMole. But they (and everyone else) have to work together if they're going to make things a success. When Adam plans to attack the Hotel next Exorcism, Vaggie gives them the okay to leave and save themselves, they all decide to stay and fight.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Her reaction to when Charlie starts singing her pitch for the Happy Hotel, accompanied by a FacePalm and an "Oh, no."
* TokenGoodTeammate: As stated in the below trope (TokenHeroicOrc), Vaggie was this to her fellow Exorcists before being abandoned. She was caught sparing a Sinner child by Lute, resulting in her mutilation and [[FallenAngel fall]], with it hinted that Vaggie was the first Exorcist to spare a Sinner. And a subtle notice shows that unlike her former teammates who sadistically smiled at the annual exterminations, Vaggie sported a serious frown, implying she didn't see any sick enjoyment from murdering Sinner but as a duty. And in the present day, it shown that ''none'' of her former Exorcist sisters have fond memories of her, even being ''excited'' at the prospect of murdering her. Given all this, it's implied that Vaggie may have been the sole, good-hearted Exorcist, with her heroic side being fully brought out upon her fall.
* TokenHeroicOrc: DoubleSubvertedTrope. Initially she seems to be one of the ''only'' good-hearted Sinners, with it not even being clear ''why'' someone like her is even in Hell to begin with. The initial subversion comes from the fact she's ''not'' a Sinner, she's an ''Angel''. More specifically, she's a FallenAngel, the second subversion coming from the fact she's a former Exorcist but was mutilated and left for dead by Adam after she showed a demon child mercy, making her at the time the only good-hearted Exorcist amidst a legion of sadistic butchers.
* TwitchyEye: She gets so pissed at Angel Dust in the pilot that her eye starts twitching.
* TwoferTokenMinority: She's both Latina and a lesbian in a relationship with Charlie. This later becomes a ''Three''fer when she's revealed to be a former Exorcist, making her an angel working in a hotel populated by demons and Sinners.
* UndyingLoyalty: Of the entire Hotel residents, Vaggie is the one who actively and steadfastly helps in ensuring Charlie's plan to redeem sinners come true. Vaggie has essentially dedicated her whole life to doing whatever she can to make Charlie safe and happy, as repayment for seeing worth in Vaggie at her lowest point after she was abandoned by Heaven.
* UnequalPairing: {{Subverted|Trope}}, with her relationship with Charlie. Charlie is Princess of Hell, daughter of Lucifer (''the'' FallenAngel and the undisputed King of Hell), while Vaggie at first appears to just be a common sinner. But then the reveal of her true nature as a FallenAngel herself flips this, as it puts them both on more equal footing.
* UnfortunateNames: Her nickname and real name unfortunately brings to mind "vagina", a fact Angel lampshaded in the prequel comic and first episode. It's later revealed that [[GiverOfLameNames Adam]] gave it to her because she was so good at killing demons, comparing her to "the greatest thing ever". He even pronounces it with a ''soft'' "g".
* UnkemptBeauty: Not in the present but during her first meeting with Charlie. Vaggie was left disheveled, and eye gouged out by her former superiors, and near death before being found and tended to by her future girlfriend. And even with her outward appearance being messy and scarred, one grateful smile at Charlie's act of kindness left the Princess of Hell romantically flustered.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: In general, just do ''not'' think of harming, insulting, or threatening Charlie when Vaggie is present.
** Her response to when the camera demon called Charlie a "stupid bitch"? Slug him in the face.
** When [[TheDreaded Alastor]] shows up at the hotel, Vaggie immediately ''threatens him with a spear'' to protect Charlie.
** Vaggie immediately brandishes a spear during Niffty's introduction when the tiny demon suddenly lifts Charlie off the ground. When Niffty puts her girlfriend down again, Vaggie lowers the spear as well.
** After seeing Charlie [[DealWithTheDevil striking a deal]] with Alastor, Vaggie immediately readies her blade to kill or harm him. She only stops because Charlie intervenes.
* WalkingSpoiler: It's difficult to talk about Vaggie's role in Season 1 without mentioning that she's not a mere sinner, but rather a FallenAngel who was left for dead by Adam and Lute.
* WeaponSpecialization: She's proficient in fighting with spears, as that's the weapon she was taught to use when she was trained as an exterminator.
* WhenSheSmiles: Under normal circumstances, her default expression is [[PerpetualFrowner a frown]]. Only Charlie can get her to genuinely smile.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: Inverted. Vaggie has white hair and while she does come off as grumpy, she's one of the most decent citizens of Hell. Plus, she fully supports Charlie's idea of redeeming the demons, even if she personally has some doubts. With the reveal that she's actually a former Exorcist, this trope is still in play as she spared a demon child during an extermination.
* WingdingEyes: She gets skulls in her pupils after Angel smugly reminds her that she can't kill him in Hell.
* WingedHumanoid: DoubleSubverted. As a former Exorcist, she once had feathery Angel wings, but they were torn off by Lute after she spared a Sinner child. She eventually gains a new set of wings.
* WouldntHurtAChild: The "crime" that got her expelled from the Exorcists and left for dead on the streets of Hell? Sparing a demon child.
* XMarksTheHero: She has a large "X" on the eyepatch covering her missing eye and is one of the central characters in the show. She also serves as the ''only'' good member of the Exorcists, refusing to kill a demon child during the Extermination and later devoting herself to helping Charlie's dream of redeeming sinners.
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: Vaggie is originally from Heaven and was an Exorcist Angel. However, when she spared a demon child, Lute gouged her eye and tore off her wings, leaving the former incapable of returning home.
* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: Her reaction in "Hello Rosie" to the fact that [[TakesOneToKillOne angelic steel is the key to harming Exorcists]] has shades of this, asking how no one else has figured it out before.

[[folder:Alastor]]
!!Alastor
Once a southern radio host and serial killer, Alastor is an enigmatic, infamously powerful Overlord known as the "Radio Demon" among other demons. He takes an interest in Charlie after seeing her on the news and offers to help her with her hotel, [[NotInThisForYourRevolution not because he believes in the cause]], but because of the entertainment value he sees in the patrons' repeated failure. He serves as the hotel's main investor, facility manager, and biggest source of defense and security. When not doing his multiple roles at the hotel, Alastor also runs his radio show on the side.

* CuteLittleFangs: While not as prominent as Charlie's, Vaggie's are visible on occasion. (They were especially notable during the Pilot, where [[ScaryTeeth her entire mouth would occasionally seemed to be filled with them]], but that appears to have been a bit of early character design that was changed.) Interestingly, she does not appear to have had them prior to her fall. Though given that Lucifer has a far more [[OneWingedAngel monstrous, inherently demonic form]] despite still being a (fallen) seraphim, it's most likely that prolonged exposure to Hell causes angels to slowly adapt more demonic traits.

This is supported by the fact Lucifer was banished since the accidental creation of Hell, while Vaggie was punished and kicked out from Heaven 3 years before the events of the pilot.

* LiarRevealed: Downplayed to "Omitting the Truth Revealed", but Vaggie is desperate to make sure Charlie never finds out her status as a FallenAngel, to the point that she [[AintTooProudToBeg begs Adam to not tell her]], and her reaction to Charlie's horror and devastation to Vaggie's past as a former Exorcist is clear regret. Where it is downplayed is that the others' reactions are pretty blasé besides Charlie, who herself seems more hurt and distant because Vaggie felt she couldn't tell her the truth in the first place.

Where it is downplayed is that the others' reactions are pretty blasé besides Charlie, who herself seems more hurt and distant because Vaggie felt she couldn't tell her the truth in the first place. This also deconstructed by the fact that the only reason why she hid her true origins to Charlie is because she was ashamed of being the same thing that mercilessly slaughtered thousands of Sinners, and because at this point knowing the truth wouldn't matter anyway, as in her 3 years old relationship with Charlie, Vaggie proved to be the most loyal supporter of the latter's dream to redeem damned souls and a sweet girlfriend.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Vaggie was once a ruthless Angel Exorcist, racking up kills in the ''thousands''. However, she was unable to kill a Sinner child and allowed him to escape. This would lead to her getting mutilated and kicked out of Heaven. However, her act of moral restraint would also lead to her being rescued and tended to by Charlie, which would lead to their romance and Vaggie's official HeelFaceTurn.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: Heavily implied, since in "Scrambled Eggs," her idea of building trust among the crew is how she learned trust: serving in combat together. Though it turns out, her own past was more complex. She may or may not have been involved in Hell's many turf wars, but the truth is that she was a former Exorcist partaking in the annual purge when she realized a demon she was hunting down was just a child, and sparing the kid cost her everything.

And while not fully explored, Vaggie's sour expressions throughout the performance of "Welcome to Heaven" also implies that even before she was abandoned, she had grown disillusioned with Heaven.



* HypercompetentSidekick: Vaggie is the undisputed [[NumberTwo second-in-command]] at the Hazbin Hotel and acts as the more serious, grounded counterpart to Charlie's flighty, sometimes overly idealistic standings. She also serves as being a honest consultant to Charlie in times the latter is need of help.
