Burnie Burnz

"You're not even a clown anymore. All you do is work at that overpriced, sleaze joint, and then every year, you come back here to put us through the same tired, old routine. Is there a single, original idea in that head?"

- Burnie Burnz, verbally attacking Fizzarolli

Arick "Burnie" Burnz was an imp demon and a minor antagonist in Helluva Boss who made his debut in the episode "MAMMON'S MAGNIFICENT MUSICAL MID-SEASON SPECIAL (ft Fizzarolli)".

He was an obsessive fan-turned obsessive hater of Fizzarolli since over fifteen years ago, harboring a desire to collaborate with him to an unhealthy degree.

Appearance
The younger Arick was an imp demon with a slim physique, horns that curve inward, a somewhat messy haircut, and little strands of hair on his chin. He wore square glasses with blue lenses, a green T-shirt, and black pants.

In the present day, his appearance remains the same, albeit with some minor differences; he was taller and he has a slightly more muscular physique, the frames of his glasses are thicker, and his T-shirt has stains, and there are three splotches on the bottom left.

Personality
In the past, Arick was disturbingly infatuated with Fizzarolli and he forcefully tried to push his ideas of the two of them performing together onto him, wasn't caring that his behavior was disturbed, and later, terrified, Fizzarolli. When Fizzarolli "rejects" him, he instantly switches from his #1 fan to his #1 hater.

In the present day, Arick still obsesses over Fizzarolli, and he attempted to run a hate site dedicated to ridiculing him with little to no success, still upset that Fizzarolli didn't want to work with him and for not changing his creepy behavior, getting to the point that Arick foolishly attempts to murder him even with the presence of Asmodeus by Fizzarolli's side. However, as shown in his fantasy, he only wanted to use Fizzarolli to gain fame and glory for himself, showing that he never truly cared about him.
