Moxxie's mother is the unnamed mother of Moxxie, the wife of Crimson and a minor character in Helluva Boss. She has only appeared in flashbacks and was first pictured in "Exes and Oohs".
Appearance
Moxxie's mother is a fairly tall, light red-skinned imp with a long demonic tail with white spots on the tip. She has black lips and eyes with yellow sclera, long eyelashes and black eyelids. She sports features similar to Moxxie's; such as freckles on her cheeks and digitigrade legs.
She has long, flowing and hip-length charcoal hair with bangs, and accessorizes with a red flower on the left side. Her hair also reveals her thin white-striped black horns, typical of female imps.
She is seen wearing a red-striped navy blue bodice with a large red bow tied around the waist, worn over a cobalt blue dress with red brims and a white-frilled trim on the puffed sleeves,a white high-frilled collar, and red and white stripes at the hem. She also wears white opera gloves, and white heels with red bows and soles, which is arguably her most noticeable feature.
In a family portrait with Crimson and Moxxie, she was wearing a Latin-American-inspired dress.
Personality
Moxxie's mother appears to be deeply caring and compassionate toward her son. During Moxxie's childhood flashback, she was seen helping cut his steak when he was struggling, and also congratulating him when he shoots three targets at a theme park shooting range.
She dislikes her husband, most noticeably because of his treatment of their son. She may fear him, as she was depicted moving her leg away from his while sitting at the dinner table.
When Crimson tries to have Moxxie shoot a live target, she shoves the gun back at Crimson and leads her son away, showing that she was against forcing Moxxie into such a lifestyle due to him being very young.
Their relationship seems to be so strained that Crimson was physically abusive to her at one point, and she left him.
History
Past
At some point, Moxxie's mother married Crimson and had a son, Moxxie. Unlike Crimson, Moxxie's mother treated Moxxie with love and care, and was very supportive of him. She also showed dislike towards Crimson's criminal activities and his abuse directed at her.[1]
Eventually, Moxxie's mother had enough of Crimson's abuse, and left with Moxxie. Unfortunately, she was later gone from Moxxie's life, implied to have died from Crimson's involvement. Her shoe was last seen floating on the water, after a younger Moxxie was forced to kill someone by pushing them off a boat.[1]

Trivia
- Although the fate of Moxxie's mother is unclear, it is hinted that she was drowned by Crimson after she had left him; one of her heels is visibly floating in the water of his body-dumping grounds. Whether or not the action was done by Crimson himself is currently unknown, but it is likely that he had arranged for it.
- According to Vivienne Medrano, they tried to make the design of Moxxie's mom as Wrath/country-style as possible because she was born in the Wrath Ring.[2]
- Her clothing is influenced by Latin-American Baroque style, her dress including elements of the baiana and pollera. Judging that her design is intended to be very Wrath-like,[2] this may infer a similarity between Latin-American aesthetics and Wrath aesthetics in the Hellaverse.
- According to Medrano, Moxxie values his mother's side of his heritage far more than his dad's.[2]
