Angel Dust/History

Past
Angel Dust, known as Anthony while living, was born into an Italian crime family in. He died in his mid 30's in 1947 following a drug overdose.

Upon entering Hell, Angel quickly became involved in sex work, cutting ties with his family's mob-related activities.

He eventually met and signed a contract with Valentino. This gave Valentino ownership of Angel's soul and put him under his employment at his porn studio, which allowed Angel to eventually become one of the biggest adult film superstars in Hell, continuing to drown out his world with narcotics and sex, along with his twisted sense of humor.

Two weeks prior to the pilot, Angel is unhappily pushed into working on the street to make money for Valentino, who demands he make up for the lost revenue from missing a film shoot. Here he meets Charlie and Vaggie, mistaking them for customers as they pull their limo up alongside him.

The two offer to pay Angel if he listens to them, which he agrees to, knowing he has money to make, and they pitch him their concept for the Happy Hotel.

Charlie is able to see right through Angel's flippant bravado, which unnerves him, and he makes a show of being extremely amused by the entire idea. When Vaggie suggests they find someone else, Angel seems offended at the rejection and suddenly changes his mind on principle, volunteering to become the Hotel's first patron, claiming he is "3 months behind on rent" and doesn't wish to pay by other means. Charlie thanks him ecstatically and pays Angel a hefty sum for helping them, which confuses him greatly.

Hazbin Hotel pilot
After being clean and staying mostly out of trouble for two weeks, Angel is asked by his close friend, Cherri Bomb, to assist her in a turf war against Sir Pentious; he agrees and unknowingly threatens the Hotel's reputation before it has a chance to get off the ground, as the 666 News Studio was broadcasting his exploits across Hell.

After being chastised severely by Vaggie on the return drive, Angel arrives back at the hotel, immediately complaining about the lack of food to eat. However, he quickly stops when he sees Charlie sad and on the verge of tears.

Soon after, the Radio Demon known as Alastor arrives at the Hotel and Vaggie explains his origins to Angel as he had not known who Alastor was. Angel catches him off-guard by mentioning his skills lie in his sexual services, which Alastor swiftly refuses.

When Vaggie demands that they remove the newly created bar in the lobby, Angel immediately tackles her and insists that they are going to keep it. Angel then quickly begins flirting with the newly hired bartender, Husk, who bluntly tells him to "go fuck himself", which Angel replies that he will only do it if Husk watches him, which irritates the latter.

Angel Dust then watches and is shocked when Alastor easily defeats Sir Pentious. As the group return to the hotel Angel blows Husk a kiss, much to the frustration of the latter.

"Overture"
While Charlie is out to pitch her idea to Heaven, Angel Dust along with the rest of the Hotel gang try making a commercial for the Hotel. Angel spends his time flirting with Husk rather taking the ad seriously.

Later that evening as they're about to show the ad, the news breaks out that the annually purge is now six months early.

"Radio Killed the Video Star"
The Hotel is attacked by Sir Pentious who immediately gets beaten by Alastor.

Later, Sir Pentious returns to the Hotel and despite Angel Dust and Vaggie protests, Charlie lets him stay. During Hotel activities, Angel Dust gets annoyed by Sir Pentious sucking up, and after doing a play where he acted as a crackhead and Pentious getting praised by Charlie, he returns to his room where he listens to several voice messages from Valentino.

Angel Dust goes to get a drink only to discover Pentious was spy and working for the Vees. The two get in a fight until Charlie and Vaggie walk in and Sir Pentious tries to lie his way out, but Angel Dust shows them the camera. After Sir Pentious tries to call Vox for help and is mocked for his failure, Sir Pentious gives up, asking for death, and Angel Dust and Vaggie agree to do it but Charlie gives Sir Pentious a second chance.

"Scrambled Eggs"
With distrust within the group, Vaggie overseas the Hotel activity for the day and has everyone do trust falls. Angel Dust is caught by Husk, but after hitting on him, Husk drops him.

After trust falls fail, Angel Dust suggests an idea and takes the group to a BDSM club.

Vaggie then brings the group to a place in the midst of a turf war and throws Angel Dust, along with the others, into battle to build trust. Later, Angel, Pentious, and Niffty sit in the Hotel laughing amongst themselves after the crazy battle against the demons in the turf war.
