Character: blitzo (helluva boss)
post #2461147
Blitzø (pronounced "Blitz") is the protagonist of Helluva Boss. He is the founder and manager of Immediate Murder Professionals (I.M.P), a startup assassination business that carries out its services in the living world on the behalf of damned souls in hell with "unfinished business", constantly killing living people and being paid for it.
Blitzø is a very lanky jester-like imp with a pointed tail who conversely has wide-proportioned hands, pointed feet with a boot-like heel, and a narrow head with curved horns. His eyes have black lines running down the eyelids and his sclera are yellow with red irises.
He has crimson skin with trace white blotches that cover his right eye and the tip of his tail, black-and-white striped horns with black spines between them running to his tail, and black stripes around his tail. A heart-shaped skull symbol rests on his forehead. He wears a torn black collared coat with red buttons, black boots (incidentally sharing the same shape as his feet), and large black gloves with yellow eyes on them. Blitzø also has a red skull charm around his neck.
He is an imp, a subclass of demons born naturally in Hell, and the lowest ranking in Hell's Hierarchy. All Imps have access to a demon form, photokinesis, and complete resistance to fire. Aside from that last one though, demons are usually just as powerful as a normal human, and can be killed with a well placed shot right between the eyes.
Personality
Focused on his company's success, Blitzø prides himself as being business-like and professional, but in truth, he has a shortsighted ego that makes him terrible at managing a legitimate business. Despite his status as his company's superior, he comes off often as immature, selfish, and even disrespectful among his employees; to which none of them find him serious enough as their boss and often come to question his extravagant yet poor decision-making. On the assassin side, he is murder-savvy and borderline sadistic with his victims. He is perfectly fine with committing more brutal killings (i.e. on children) if there's no fuss over it.
He possesses a twisted sense of family when it comes to his work. Comparing his employees to a (dysfunctional) family, Blitzø likens the matters the company faces as familial problems that can be dealt with if they all work together (but not necessarily respect each other). However, Blitzø occasionally uses the comparison as an excuse for his negligent behavior when called out on it. For example, his justifying of Loona's volatile behavior and appraisal as a surrogate daughter against employee complaints, or endlessly stalking Moxxie in public and private.
He also has a theatrical side, as Blitzø also loves music and jingles, and keeps posters of himself and his family from when they worked together as a circus act around his office. Unfortunately, Blitzo's thought process runs on the idea that entertainment is a Kickstarter shortcut through corporate promotion, leading him to confuse the two and blowing the company's resources on over-the-top advertising.
Fitting into his jester motif, Blitzø has a pair of sisters who are circus performers. He is also the adoptive father of Loona the Hellhound. He is pansexual and considers himself single, but he frequently has to whore himself out to Prince Stolas, who is shown to be very clingy and aggressively flirtatious.
