The basic design for 6 out of the 7 Theatre Overlords have been completed. Except for The Puppeteer, who I’m working on right now.
Below is a height chart/comparison:
Now onto some other news regarding these characters, I’m working on some storylines.
1. Who can/will be redeemed?
2. Possible love interest/crush for Stragedys (it’s someone from the Hazbin crew).
3. Possible relationship between Stifonies and The Puppeteer.
4. Interactions with the main cast.
Sorry I haven’t posted in a while, but I was doing some “research” for basically a “my take” of an AU, specifically Horrortale. But I also tried to revamp my list AUs that I want to draw Neue in, mainly AUs regarding the Bad & Star Sanses.
I’m currently working on a yearbook style headshots for all the AUs that I’m gonna draw Neue in (25 in total 🙃).
However, I wanted to discuss more about a story or slice of life headcanon for the “Sanses” & “Neues” within the Bad & Star Sanses, along with a few others that the Neues are friends with.
Main AUs
Horrortale
Dusttale
Something New/Killer AU
X-Tale
Underswap
Blank Template (My AU)
Dreamtale
I’m also gonna include some “Neues” who will have a bigger main role, but will eventually become more side/background characters: specifically Epictale & Underkeep Neue.
There’s another AU variant that’ll be included, Georgia or Gigi (Underlust Neue) which was inspired by @vantriloquist for Passion & Plum! I have a few ideas for him.
Basically it’s gonna be going over the “home-life” of the Bad Sanses & Neues, what they were like when they first got there, how their relationship works, & just generally more character building for my OCs.
I have posted some rough drafts for a few of the AUs listed above, but I’m definitely gonna be doing some touch ups/redesign once I get their personalities figured out.
It’s gonna generally revolve around Crimson (Horrortale Neue), Vani (Dusttale Neue), Sabon (Killer AU Neue) & Gisha (X-Tale Neue); with bits of Merrriweather (Underswap Neue) & Canvas (Blank Template Neue). I might include Eras & Lucida (Dreamtale “Neues”) along with a few joke “AUs” of an AU.
If ya’ll have questions or even your own headcanons for this, please comment them down below!
Madame Fuocella is the Overlord over the Opera industry and is part of the Theatre Overlords lead by The Puppeteer.
She was born in Naples, Italy and into a high-status family; she grew up during the Risorgimento or known as the “Unification of Italy”. Due to her childhood and being constantly praised by the male population, she had developed a princess complex.
Her family were able to visit several famous opera houses throughout Italy and France, seeing the fame, glory, and even compassion from the singers, she wanted to become an opera singer. After performing in more local theatres, she started to get recognized by many composers. Seeing this as an opportunity to boost their status and income, her family decided to build their own opera house for her to perform in.
During one of her performances, she made met a man. After finally meeting, and getting to know each other better, they both fell in love and got married to each other; a year later, they had a daughter.
However, when returning home, she saw someone who looked like her husband with another woman. Filled with rage, she waited until the woman was alone, and then confronted her. In a fit of rage, she attacked the woman, strangling her to death.
It was soon discovered that her husband has a twin brother, and that was who was on the date with the woman. The twin found the body and immediately blamed her; however, her husband defended her.
One night, she brought her daughter to her family’s opera house to show off her singing. However, the twin knew they would be there and covered most of the opera house with kerosene. After they entered, the twin locked them inside before lighting it up. The building started to collapse on top of them, crashing and killing the daughter. She was caught under the rumble; eventually experiencing a slow and painful death by burning alive.
After arriving in Hell, she was greeted by The Puppeteer, who watched her many performances when she was alive. The Puppeteer offered a deal to her, they would enhance her voice to draw her audience in, a “false” daughter who will always be with her, and the power to control any soul she owns during any performance. However, in exchange, her soul is owned by the Puppeteer, having to follow their command when needed. Wanting to gain back her fame and her “daughter”, she accepted The Puppeteer’s deal.
Many would willingly sign over their souls just to perform with her, let alone be near her. She has a rather flirtatious and egotistical personality, thinking that everyone wants her. If anyone tries to ignore her, she’ll throw a temper tantrum and basically push herself onto said person.
After hearing about Charlie and what she’s trying to accomplish at the Hazbin Hotel, she at first thinks of it as nonsense. However, believing that if she can get “redeemed” she could see her real daughter and husband again, she’s waiting to see the results before making a rather big decision.
Her name is a rough combination of the Italian words for “Fire” and “Bird”.
She’s around 11ft 8in, making her a bit shorter than Zelyezda.
She has the appearance of a bird, specifically a phoenix, to represent how she died and how she’s rising up.
Her feathers can burn like fire when angered, but she constantly feels warm like a fireplace.
The necklace and bracelets represent “shackles” during to her being under The Puppeteer’s control.
She lacks wings like a typical bird demon, with her arms resembling talons. However, her full demon form looks similar to a griffin minus the mammal counterpart, or simply a four legged bird.
Here is a basic reference without the clothes and makeup:
Here is the finished final draft for Roman:
Also here’s the lineart for just the body as well:
Finally at last, meet:
Unlike the others, not much is known about except how they died, and the general area and time when they were alive.
They grew up in China and was born during the early beginning of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911),
So sometime during the mid-late 17th to early 18th centuries.
Based on some stories told by The Puppeteer, they were an actual puppeteer while alive, making their own puppets and performing at local theaters.
They were killed by a form of torture and execution known as Lingchi or “Death by a Thousand Cuts”, which is used for the most heinous crimes like High Treason, Mass Murder, R*pe, Patricide/Matricide, Murder of one’s Master/Employer, etc. It’s still not clarified what they did to receive this, but it’s implied to be mass torment and murder.
Nobody in Hell has really heard or seen this character until just recently, in fact, only the souls that they owned or is being stalked by them know about the Theatre. They decided to show themselves after hearing about Charlie and the Hazbin Hotel, inviting her and friends to a show.
They clearly have something in mind for her, but first they must handle a certain Radio Demon first.

So while waiting for the rest of the clothing drafts, and eventually the colored drafts, I’ll list below what Neue and his AU variants height are.
For reference, I made Sans 4ft 10in/147cm.
Neue: 5ft 8in/173cm
Roman: 5ft 0in/152cm
Merriweather: 5ft 5in/165cm
Miriam: 4ft 7in/139cm
Avenir: 6ft 3in/190cm
Crimson: 7ft 2in/218cm
Nova: 5ft 8in/173cm
Bernard: 5ft 8.5in/174cm
Carter: 5ft 1.5in/156cm
Century: 6ft 3.5in/191cm
Vani: 5ft 7.5in/171cm
Sabon: 4ft 10in/147cm
Quire: 6ft 1.5in/186cm
Gisha(Mono): 5ft 9in/175cm
Styx: 5ft 9.5in/176cm
Mairanda: 6ft 2.5in/189cm
Eras: 5ft 8in/173cm
Lucida: 5ft 5in/165cm
I can’t decide if I want her name to be “Rozha” or “Carter”. I guess one could be an alter alias.
Here is the rough draft:
She’s based off the Australian Cashmere Goat.
She’s about an inch or 2 taller than Roman; her hair used to be to longer, but decided to cut it for her side job (and to be spiteful towards her parents).
I finally watched and finished the 1st season of Hazbin Hotel, and I absolutely fell in love with this show, the characters, the art style, the story, the music.
Now I want to try and create my own original character for this show. I have some ideas that I want to do, but I want to get more insights and suggestions for what I should do with this character.
Here are the basics so far:
-They were a human that sinned and went to Hell after death (obviously).
-They resemble a dog, still deciding on breed.
-They had Dissociative Identity Disorder during their life. (I want to try and draw characters with mental disorders/illness, so this is where I’ll need the most insight on to make I’m representing them properly).
-The alternate personalities came down to Hell with the character and are attached (mental & physically) to the character.
-Each personality would be a different dog breed.
-The personalities can make themselves visible to others without taking control, but it takes a lot of energy to do so.
-In their full demon, they resemble a huge 5-headed dog demon with varied horns on each head, 4 front legs (arms), 4 back legs, and 5 tails. Each head, tails, and certain limbs portray one of the personalities.
-I’m still coming up with a backstory, powers, and if they should work at the hotel or just occasionally visits.
If anyone has any suggestions or ideas on how to improve this character(s), please comment. Thank you!
I’m working on the colors for the body, hair, horns, and eyes.
I’m gonna work on their clothes eventually, I have some ideas for a few of them, but I still have hard time drawing clothes.
Anyway, here are colored line arts of Neue, Roman, Merriweather, Miriam, Avenir, and Crimson.
