Hi, I’m not on this fandom very often, but I’d like to share a theory I have been working on for months now based off the season 1 and concept stuff the creator has posted about. If this is already a common theory I apologize, like I said I haven’t read much fandom discussion for Hazbin Hotel yet. I hope you enjoy.

I am a big believer that the upcoming at some point character Roo (who is known for her demon hands just like the one Charlie gained at the end of season 1, and her humanoid design is near identical to Charlie’s original design) used to be Eve because in episode one mer 4 seconds after Eve accepts the apple we the audience see visuals of what looks like Roo’s true demon form, and of course Roo is short for “ROOt of all Evil” emphasis on “EVEil”.

So it is firm in my mind that Roo used to be Eve, but how does that relate to Charlie. Well, from everything we have seen so far Lucifer seems (even 7+ years separated) viciously loyal to Lilith, and yet to get under Adam’s skin he implies he slept with Eve who only came into the picture after Lucifer and Lilith were already together, those two facts combined with one interpretation of the mythological figure of Lilith being unable to birth live children a pretty plausible theory pops into my head. Roo(Eve) acted as both egg donor and surrogate for the Morningstars. That’s why Charlie shares no physical features with Lilith other than blonde hair which could come from Lucifer and height which could come from Roo. And again, this would explain Charlie’s demon hand that doesn’t seem to come from Lucifer or Lilith.

But to be clear though, while Roo would be Charlie’s donor and surrogate, she is not Charlie’s mother as every single thing points to Lilith and Lucifer happily raising Charlie together as their own for 18-200+ years, and I don’t think Lucifer had any relations with Roo beyond what was necessary to conceive Charlie. I also don’t think this has anything to do with whatever reason why Lilith left, but could bring some mother-daughter drama if Charlie learns she isn’t biologically Lilith’s.

Anyway, I’d love to hear people’s thoughts.
