* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: They all look like average adults (their actors are in their [=20s=] and [=30s=], for reference), but are all at least six ''thousand'' years old.



* TheFashionista: His historically inspired gothic outfits are always on point, often with impeccable makeup to match.



* LoserProtagonist: In Hell, they were a lowly line cook, and on Earth they're a lowly fast food restaurateur. They're painfully aware of their place at the bottom of the totem pole.



* NonHumanNonBinary: The other characters refer to him as "her" or "him" interchangably, suggesting she's genderfluid or, like Misroch, agender.

* BadJobWorseUniform: The worst part of working at Weiner World for her, besides putting up with Misroch, is the weiner-shaped hat they make her wear.

Added DiffLines:

* ConsistentClothingStyle: Polo shirts. Multiple polo shirts. The man once wore three polo shirts at once. Asmoraius is at a loss.

* NiceGuy: By all accounts, and in what little we see of him in recordings, he seems like a friendly and easygoing guy, and he's known to be able to befriend anyone. [[spoiler:Perhaps foreshadowing his turn to Heaven.]]
* PlatonicLifePartners: There's no indication he and Belzagor have anything romantic going on, but she seems to have been his closest friend, and is the most concerned for his well-being.



* MrExposition: He's the one who explains sin coins to Xaphan and the audience.

* INeedAFreakingDrink: As things spiral further out of her control, this increasingly becomes her go-to response. She prefers Holy water.
* InsistantTerminology: She always refers to her invention as "the Fur-Baby," and hates the name "Furby."


Added DiffLines:

* AmicableExes: Downplayed with Asmoraius. They are still friends, but they argue a lot and their entire relationship runs on BelligerentSexualTension.


Added DiffLines:

* IJustWantToBeSpecial: In Hell and on Earth, they're a bit of a nobody, and it drives them more than a little crazy. This is part of the reason for their resentment towards Hornblas.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Tsundere}}: Towards Asmoraius. They're quite likely to pick a fight with him or snap at him for calling them "darling," but every now and then their actual affection for him seeps through.


Added DiffLines:

* EasilyImpressed: It's not hard to blow her mind. Justified, as she's doing basically everything for the very first time.


Added DiffLines:

* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Due to her job in Hell being isolated and monotonous, never requiring her to leave the room or speak to anyone else, she's not up-to-date on things that are common knowledge to most demons, such as what sin coins are or that saying "God" will cause her to burst into flames.
* MundaneLuxury: After spending her millennia-long existence in one room doing one thing, everything about Brimstone Valley Mall is a wondrous, novel experience. There's nothing she likes more than eating a hot dog, playing an arcade game, or making a store's automatic doorbell go off.


Added DiffLines:

* SixthRanger: ''Fifth'' ranger, actually, but she still fills the archetype. At first, it's by force, as Hell sends her up to replace Hornblas against the others' protests, but she gradually befriends the others, with Misroch being the last to come around. [[spoiler:By the end of the first season, Belzagor breaks her out of the bellows and takes her along, and she even gets to sing with the band!]]


Added DiffLines:

* GenderFlip: Satan is female (or at least female-presenting) in this setting.


Added DiffLines:

* JerkassHasAPoint: As he points out, he has over ''nine thousand'' demons to manage on Earth; he can't be reasonably expected to keep track of every specific one's location at every single moment.

* AffablyEvil: All of them, save for Misroch. They're demons and tempt people into sin, and have no qualms about murder, but they're also generally pretty chill, likable people.



* MassOhCrap:
** When they find out Carpasinus is coming up to ream them out for losing Hornblas.
** [[spoiler:When they find out Trainee and the goth teens used Hornblas' ID number to buy a ticket to Hell, meaning that the system actually showed ''them'' entering Hell, and therefore, they still have ''no idea'' where Hornblas actually is.]]



* HeWhoMustNotBeSeen: He's gone missing at the start of the series, and only appears in recordings. [[spoiler:Until the first season finale, that is.]]



* AffectionateNickname: Her friends call her "Bellz."



* AffectionateNickname:
** He calls everyone he likes "darling," especially Misroch.
** His friends call him "Asmo."



* LovableSexManiac: He loves sex and flirting, but this is never portrayed as a character flaw, and he's genuinely likable and friendly.
* LoveYouAndEverybody: According to Misroch, this is part of why their relationship didn't work; Asmoraius flirts with anything and anyone.



* ReallyGetsAround: ''Yeah''. He actually met Hornblas at an orgy. Justified, given his job.



* TheFriendNobodyLikes: They're worried they're this, but it's not true. The others certainly get fed up with their crap, but as Asmoraius points out, they wouldn't have stuck around if they didn't love them.



* JerkassHasAPoint: Despite their obvious jealousy towards Hornblas, they're not wrong when they say he's a total flake, and as anyone who's ever worked on any sort of team or ensemble will tell you, that can get very old, ''very'' quickly.
* JerkassRealization: They're taken aback when Trainee points out they're not very nice to their so-called friends, and realizes she has a point.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: They're rude and hard to deal with, but they sometimes show a softer side, and do genuinely care for their friends. [[spoiler:They also refuse to leave Trainee behind when the Reckoning starts, showing they did grow fond of her.]]



* IJustWantToHaveFriends: Being alone down in the bellows has led to her craving camaraderie and company something fierce. When Trainee says she wants to be friends, she's ''thrilled''.



* NiceGirl: She'll lead people into sin if she's told to do so, but she's cheerful and personable to everyone.



* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Hot dogs. Specifically, [[TheSecretOfLongPorkPies Misroch's hot dogs]].



* TheDreaded: The gang is clearly intimidated by him and desperate to remain on his good side.

* NiceGirl: Moments of (totally justified) sarcasm towards Misroch aside, she's a kind and friendly person.
* NoNameGiven: Not for a lack of trying on her part.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Everyone calls her "Trainee," and whenever she tries to reveal her name, she's interrupted.
* OnlySaneMan: Often ends up being this, since Misroch is a demon with an ego and Damien and Raven are pretentious douchebags.
* PerkyGoth: She's a talkative, easygoing teenage girl who wears pentagram jewelry and tries to summon demons.
* ValleyGirl: Has the speech patterns, but it's subverted as she's actually a PerkyGoth.

When asked what she intends to do if the demon-summoning ritual works, she says that she'd just ask the demon to hang out with her and talk with them.

!!Mall Rat
[[folder:As a Whole]]

Four wayward demons who have grown to prefer life on Earth. They're in a band.
----

* AntiHero: All of them fall somewhere on the scale, committing many bad deeds without a care, but still being sympathetic and engaging protagonists. They're rarely actively malicious, if only because they don't want to earn too many sin coins.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: They're demons, it comes with the territory. Murder and cannibalism are totally fine by them, but they genuinely value loyalty and friendship, and when Belzagor questions why Trainee can work on Christmas, Misroch chides her, "She's Jewish. Don't be ignorant!"
* MinionWithAnFInEvil: They ''can'' tempt people into sin when they bother to try, but they mostly can't be bothered, not least because they don't actually ''want'' to go home.
* PaperThinDisguise: They're all ''really'' bad at hiding their demonic natures, even when in human skin.
* TrueCompanions: No matter what they go through, they stick together through thick and thin. [[spoiler:Xaphan joins the gang over the course of the first season... while Hornblas apparently leaves.]]
* VitriolicBestBuds: They argue a ''lot'', especially Belzagor and Misroch, but it's obvious that they are the best of friends and care deeply for each other.

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Hornblas]]

The lead singer of Mall Rat, who introduced everyone else to one another. He's also a summoning demon, which makes him very useful in Hell. As of the first episode, he's missing. Voiced by Sheldon Brown.
----

* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Misroch is bitter that they'll never live up to his example.
* AscendedDemon: [[spoiler:He reveals in the first season finale that he's pulled a HeelFaceTurn and is now an angel once again.]]
* MagneticHero: He can get pretty much anyone to like him, and was the first to befriend everyone else in the group.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:At some unknown point, he switched from being a demon to fighting for the angels.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: It is ''very'' hard to talk about him in any depth without spoiling the first season finale.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Belzagor]]

A demon of invention, who now works at Gadget Hut in the mall. Mall Rat's bassist. Voiced by Susannah Wilson.
----
* ItWillNeverCatchOn: Her opinion of cell phones and online video streaming.
* GadgeteerGenius: She's invented several gadgets, which work almost instantly.
* LaughingMad: [[spoiler:Her reaction when she realizes her Fur-Baby invention is what's causing her influx of sin coins; it's making children go crazy and commit evil acts.]]
* NiceGirl: She's not exactly warm and cuddly, but she's easygoing and approachable.
* PlatonicLifePartners: Implied to be this with Hornblas. She seems to be the closest to him, and is very concerned for his welfare.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Asmoraius]]

A demon of lust who will flirt with anyone. He works at the mall's carousel and is Mall Rat's guitarist. Voiced by Mark Wolf Roberts.
----

* AmicableExes: Downplayed. He and Misroch are friends, but in a definite SlapSlapKiss sort of way.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Leave him be and he's generally quite pleasant. Piss him off, and prepare for bodily harm.
* CampGay: Flamboyant, loves dancing and fashion, and ''definitely'' into dudes. However, his attraction to Misroch and other comments imply he may be pansexual.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: He can seduce anyone, regardless of gender.
* FlamingDevil: Unashamedly campy and open about his sexuality, and a demon of Hell.
* MrExposition: He's the one who explains sin coins to Xaphan and the audience.
* MrViceGuy: For all his faults, he's a good friend and generally fun to be around.
* PerkyGoth: He dresses in Victorian-style clothing and wears makeup, but he's easily the most cheerful member of Mall Rat.
* SuccubusInLove: A flirtatious demon of lust who has genuine feelings for both Misroch and Trent.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Misroch]]

A former line cook from Hell, and current owner of Weiner World. Mall Rat's drummer. Voiced by Elliot Gindi.
----

* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: Most of their grandstanding and jerkassery is a cover-up for how little regard they actually have for themselves.
* MeanBoss: Trainee goes through a ''lot'' at their hands.
* NonHumanNonBinary: "Gender is a silly human construct and it is beneath me."
* SmallNameBigEgo: They're convinced their former job as a line cook (and current job as a fast food place owner) is ''way'' more impressive than it is.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Of the gang, they're easily the most unpleasant to be around, as well as the one most likely to commit some sort of horrible act, such as murder. [[spoiler:Ironically, they're actually the ''worst'' at earning sin coins.]]
* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: They're a total jerk, which makes it easy to laugh at their suffering.

----
