Alastor stands out from many of the more chaotic residents of hell for his well maintained amiable persona. He gives a first-impression of a good-natured and charming man, wearing a permanently wide grin on his face at all times. His behavior, mannerisms, and even his voice are similar to an old-fashioned radio announcer and speaks with a transatlantic accent, often using quaint anachronisms such as "the picture show" and refers to Charlie as a "charming demon belle".
This playful dandyish exterior, however, obscures a much darker side to him - one with high levels of self-importance - and he will not hesitate to use physical violence when others don't act in line with his very particular values or expectations. He is noted to be narcissistic, with his love for himself being stated that no one else can measure up to it, and he does not see many people quite up to his level.
Alastor is described as a man of duality. He values good manners, affability and intelligence very highly in others, and will actively look down on those who do not meet his standards, however he will often play fast and loose with these arbitrary rules in regards to himself and his own conduct.
Alastor has an odd sense of morality, which is described as "not normal",[28] and has been noted to be quite sadistic, even cannibalistic, devouring lesser demons or those that have incurred his anger. Despite this, he keeps close friends with the other cannibals of Hell, including the denizens at the Cannibal Colony.
His smiling is a very self enforced form of ego and a show of power and dominance; he looks down on anyone who let's their true emotions show, and even when faced with a rival in strength, if they let slip a frown, Alastor will see them as truly weak.[29][30] His smile is also to be more unpredictable and unnerving, and gives him a feeling of completele control over himself.
While Alastor is powerful, he is aware that there are other demons and entities that rival him in terms of power, such as other Overlords. For this reason, he is wary around such demons, as they could potentially harm him if he is not careful.
Despite everything, Alastor does genuinely seem to want to help Charlie run the Hazbin Hotel, albeit for his own amusement, and hopes for its failure over siding with her idealism. Alastor also dismisses the idea that redemption is possible as laughable, nevertheless, he fulfills his role as patron as promised, providing the hotel with staff, and protecting Charlie and her business from outside threats. He views the whole endeavor as a fun distraction from his decades of boredom.

Quirks "There's nothing more satisfying than seeing the strive stumble to the deepest pits of failer".
Alastor is shown to be a deal-maker demon in the pilot, offering Charlie a deal in return for his help with the hotel, something she wisely turns down. Deal-maker demons like Alastor can increase their power by dealing in souls, which is a very powerful commodity in hell. So theyโre seen as very manipulative and not to be toyed with. Deal-making is not something every demon can do, as such it is not to be taken lightly as it doesnโt generally work out well for the other party
While living, Alastor's profession was as a radio show host, and he continues his broadcasts in Hell, ensuring that Hell's denizens are aware of his activities over the airwaves, earning him the title of "The Radio Demon".

When asked exactly what Alastor's powers are, Vivziepop stated that they are "lots of things", and that even she doesn't know all of them, yet. Alastor is a character that keeps many abilities hidden as he enjoys being unpredictable. He will sometimes feign an inability to do things that he can actually do, partly to subvert expectations, partly to be intentionally antagonistic and force the people around him to struggle with something he could easily have done.
His microphone is a living extension of himself that he can manifest and hide whenever he chooses. Vivziepop thinks that he hypothetically would not be able to talk without it, but that it's not something that can ever be separated from him as it's not a tangible object to anyone but Alastor.
This is where I hide my power. This is where I become free.
This is where I take control and slowly choke your fantasies.
Abilities
Demon Transformation: - In flashbacks featured in the pilot, as well as in the official Alastor-centric comic, Alastor has demonstrated the ability to turn into a more powerful Demon form.
Demonic Magic: - Alastor can cast magic thanks to the high power-level he has accrued in the demon ranking system. In the pilot, this takes the visual form of glowing red symbols that resemble Voodoo veve, which float around him. Alastor is also shown using a type of blood magic, clenching his fist until droplets of blood can be seen falling from it, as a means to defeat Sir
Shadow Manipulation: - Alastor is able to summon shadows and manipulate them into doing his bidding.
Spatial Warping: - Alastor is able to get around with the help of his shadow. This was first shown when he teleports behind Charlie and Vaggie after entering the hotel for the first time.
Portal Creation: - Alastor can also transport others to his location easily via the portals he makes. This is shown when he pulls Niffty out of a fireplace he summons, as well as pulling Husk (along with a portion of the bar he was in) into the hotel foyer.
Pyrokinesis: - Alastor summons a ball of fire to distract Charlie as he shoves Vaggie away before starting his reprise.
Phytokinesis: - As shown in the comics, Alastor is able to make plants wilt with a single stare.
Manifestation: - Alastor manifests a bottle of cheap alcohol to bribe Husk back into his service.
Photokinesis: - During his introduction, he is shown to be able to project red glowing light from his eyes as well as his microphone.
Outfit Alteration: - Alastor is capable of changing the outfits of his targets as well as his own with a snap of a finger.

Demon
Alastor, is a slim, dapper sinner demon with beige-colored skin, and usually has a broad smile full of sharp, yellow teeth. He is at around the same height as his rival, Vox, with the two standing at approximately 7 feet.
He sports a pinkish-red cropped, angled bob-cut with black tips at the ends and two large, black tipped tufts of hair extending from the top of his head, evoking the ears of a deer. The style has an undercut at the back, and two small black antlers protruding from the crown, which can grow in size in his full demonic form.
Alastor's eyes have dark-red sclera, bright-red irises and thin black pupils (which can change into the shape of radio dials when shifting into his full demon form). His forearms and lower legs fade to dark grey, and he has red hoofed toes and red fingers.
Alastor wears a red pinstripe coat with dark-red lapels piped with white, which is ragged along the bottom hem. Underneath this he wears a bright red dress-shirt with a black cross on the chest, and long black dress pants with matching bright red cuffs. He also wears a dark-red oval-shaped monocle, rimmed with black, over his right eye.
He accessorizes with a black knotted bowtie with a bright red center, black gloves with red at the fingertips, and black pointed-toe boots with red deer hoofprints emblazoned on the soles. Alastor also carries a thin cane with a sentient vintage style microphone attached to it, which he uses to play sound effects and broadcast his voice.
Alastor was the first character that would eventually come to feature in Hazbin Hotel to be created by Vivziepop, with her having first designed him in high school, and he remains one of her personal favorite characters to date.
Alastor was originally intended to be a character that would feature in the Angels and Demons arc of Vivziepop's then-running webcomic, Zoophobia. He appeared as a frenetic, cannibalistic shapeshifter, with hypnotic eyes, who often took the form of a demonic red deer with sharp yellow teeth.
Vivziepop eventually realized that the collection of misfit demons she had designed to appear within the comic had the potential for their own self-contained story, and shifted them, along with Alastor, over to the first draft of what would eventually become Hazbin Hotel.

Alastor speaks with a Transatlantic (sometimes called a Mid-Atlantic) accent. A fashionable affect for American newscasters in the 1920s' to adopt, it was a combination of an idealized American accent and the clipped upper-class Queen's English used by the British Broadcasting Corporation in their "World Service" radio news.
In the series, Alastor does have his radio voice filter at all times, but it sounds different and gets lighter to hear the actors voice a bit more at times.
Alastor can speak some French, although not fluently.
The pilot makes several references to Alastor's love for his mother. This was confirmed by Faustisse, who described him as "a momma's boy".
Alastor was a big theater person while living and would see everything. His general media preferences would be the "elevated horror" genre, as well as smart, dry comedies, such as the work of Buster Keaton.
When asked whether Alastor is afraid of dogs, Vivziepop stated that she doesn't think he's afraid of dogs (as was the case for previous iterations of his character), but that he actively dislikes them due to "backstory reasons" which involve his death, an event he apparently did not appreciate.
;ย Hello! And thank you for adding or accepting me! I'm sorry for not having a fancy greeting~ Though I promiseย im worth it~! We can Discuss, wing it or even just banter, I am up for anything! I hope to hear back from you soon~ ;
"Yeah, I'm just about as thrilled as you are to be here."ย ย //The big greeting. Spectacular, no?ย Well thanks for adding me. Just thought I'd drop by to send you a quick thanks and hello.ย I'd love to get something going, if you'd be up for it. And feel free to banter away any time.
Are you lost? Seeking help? Or perhaps our meeting is "fate"? Either way, I assure you, you won't regret the audience I grant you. You might have heard of the tales of a reaper who only answers the call of the Morningstars. An old terror that walks among humans as well as the demons below. Be wary and just else you may find yourself at the end of their blade. Or so they say. Although there is truth in that old folklore, I don't think 'terror' does such a soul justice. The name's Rosalina and it is truly a pleasure to be meeting you.ย Now that the formalities are done, shall we speak in a more private setting?
"You think I'm cute?! Awe Alastor. Thank you. I dont mind really. We can wing things or discuss. If you're up for discussion then are we starting pre-Adam death or post Adam death.. Also sorry for the late response."
Oh, well...ย -She sheepishly ran a hand up and down her arm, tilting her head slightly up at him.- I suppose things would be going more smoothly but.... Angel says the 666 News has been featuring us frequently, and that bitch Katie Killjoy has been doing nothing but sh*tting on everything we've built here. It's no wonder we have't seen anymore patrons...
Ooh, well, I am so GLAD you asked! -She pulled out a mile long list from her pocket, letting it fall all the way down to the ground and dragging behind her as she bounced excitedly.- SO! I figure we do trust exercises every morning, then, we do a sharing circle! I have a whole list of daily activities! The highlighted ones are the best parts!ย
-She blinks for a moment, taken aback by him forcing the corners of her mouth to upturn into a smile. She eyes him suspiciously, a nervous laugh emitting from her lips as she placed a hand over his wrist.- Riiiigghhhtttt..... As long as you mind your manners. I.... I'm still Princess of Hell.
R-Righhhhttttttt... Ehehehe..... S-So, Alastor, QUITE the enthusiasm, I truly do appreciate that and all you do. But.... Uhm... If I may make a suggestion.... Maybe the whole... creepy.... voo-doo.... murderous Overlord persona isn't the best for attracting patrons, don't you think so...?
Welcome to the Hotel, all sinners looking for redemption! We have all sorts of yummy cupcakes and every afternoon, the group participates in a group hug! Oh! I'm your GRACIOUS host, Princess Charlotte Morningstar!ย Oh, but PLEASE call me Charlie! I sure hope you enjoy your stay, and I just KNOW together we can do this! :D
//Thank you SO much for the add! I'm so excited to see how much the Hazbin community has grown since the pilot episode aired!
