Katie Killjoy

"Breaking news in Hell today! We have just received word from the Heaven Embassy that the next Extermination is happening sooner than ever before."

- Katie Killjoy, about the news on the upcoming Extermination in six months instead of a year

Katie Killjoy is a sinner demon and the head anchor of 666 News, Hell's premiere news station.

She is a supporting character who made her debut in the Hazbin Hotel pilot.

Appearance
Katie Killjoy is a tall, slim, pale-skinned demon. She has short, light-blonde hair that flairs out into an almost fan-like shape, with swept to the side bangs. She has rose-red eyes with small, white pupils. Her neck is long, mirroring her thin torso, and she has a large, round head.

She wears a short, rose-red dress with a low-cut sweetheart neckline, long-sleeves, and shoulder pads. When she moves in a sudden way, cracking sounds can be heard coming from her body.

In her Full Demon form, she reveals an extra pair of eyes, which, alongside her original pair of eyes, glow bright red. She can also summon two extra pairs of arms that resemble the front legs of a praying mantis, right below her usual pair of arms. She also gains sharper teeth.

Personality
Katie is arrogant, selfish, and narcissistic. She openly derides Charlie's plan to rehabilitate Demons. She cares mostly about her own image, the hottest stories, and the latest gossip.

She doesn't seem to care about, or even acknowledge Charlie's royal position in Hell, and openly expressing contempt for her and her ventures.

She has also been shown to be homophobic, refusing to even shake hands with Charlie, claiming she "does not touch the gays" due to her standards.

Katie is aggressive and seems to always be on edge. She deliberately spills hot coffee on Tom's crotch, while insulting and threatening Charlie. At the same time, Katie does not tolerate insults in her direction, and when Charlie snaps and calls her a bitch, Killjoy instantly falls into a rage and rushes at the princess with her fists. She visibly shows her edginess when she heard the news about the new extermination deadline, saying that "they're all royally fucked" with her eye twitching.

In "The Show Must Go On," she was willing to acknowledge Charlie, Lucifer, and Charlie's friends for fighting against the Angels and having extermination day cancelled, saying that they were "useful for once."
