    Satan 

Satan

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/saints_row_satan.jpg
The Prince of Darkness himself. He kidnaps the Boss and transports them to hell to marry his daughter, forcing Johnny Gat and Kinzie to save them.
  • Abusive Parents: Reminds Jezebel of how she "belongs to him" and when she's defiant, he doesn't hesitate to slap her. He eventually threatens to kill her.
  • Antagonistic Offspring: He hates his father, God, and wants to declare war on Heaven to spite him.
  • Bad Boss: Satan seems overjoyed about all the destruction and murder of all of Satan's property and men that Gat does during the course of the game, claiming it shows his cunningness and ruthlessness.
    • When Vlad told him that one of their wars with Heaven was not going to fair well due to their lack of man-power, Satan ignored him. When it worked out as well as Vlad predicted, he blamed Vlad for it and sentenced him to his eternal torment.
  • Beard of Evil: A small black one.
  • Big Bad: Of Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell.
  • Big Red Devil: The form he takes during the expansion.
  • The Devil Is a Loser: For all his Hate Sink qualities, ultimately he ends up getting his head handed to him by two mortals, with the help of his own poorly-treated daughter, and has to banish them from Hell to soothe his bruised ego.
  • Equal-Opportunity Evil: He may be a massive bastard and a horrible father, but it's shown quite well through the game that when it comes to building up his army, he's a very strong case of Pragmatic Villainy, as he cares not one whit what your gender, race, sexual orientation, personal beliefs, fetishes, or anything else about you is. If you're badass enough to not just survive but thrive in his Crapsack World where Asskicking Leads to Leadership is close to the only law, then he considers you worthy of joining his side in the coming war against Heaven.
  • Evil Brit: He speaks with an English accent, and, being the literal Devil, he's as evil as they come.
  • Evil Is Petty:
    • The infliction of eternal suffering to both damned souls and demonic hordes aside, he mentions that the Barrens were once a festive land before it was blown to Kingdom Come (figuratively speaking) in a Heaven/Hell scuffle. He has since forbidden rebuilding it until he conquers Heaven as a reminder of their loss.
    • The audio logs also reveal that his banishment to Hell was supposed to be temporary, and that God put a cathedral down there where Satan could repent and receive forgiveness. Satan leaves it there as a message to God, that he's deliberately rejecting this opportunity for eternity. It's also implied that Hell wasn't that bad a place (more a "time-out space") until Satan made it a place of suffering, again to spite God.
  • Evil Sounds Deep: It's Travis Willingham voicing the Devil. You've got to expect he'd have one deep voice.
  • Faux Affably Evil: His voice sounds rather jovial and upbeat, and when talking to other people (besides his daughter) he seems downright friendly. All of this is strongly contrasted to how everything he says is dripping with malice and sadism, and the friendly persona shatters quite quickly, replaced with anger and hatred, when his authority is genuinely challenged.
  • Fisher King: In the audio-tomes, it is implied by Satan that when he was originally cast into Hell, it was meant to be a "time-out space" before Satan corrupted it into the fiery lake of eternal suffering it is now.
  • Horned Humanoid: He has two massive horns on his head.
  • I Have No Daughter!: After Johnny or Kinzie defeat him, he banishes Jezebel from Hell with them, basically disowning her.
  • Large and in Charge: The king of Hell is a really tall, buff demon.
  • Monster Modesty: He doesn't wear much to cover up, but he at least wears some sort of loincloth to keep from exposing his junk.
  • Politically Incorrect Villain: When Jezebel interrupts him while he's speaking with Gat, Satan tells her not to speak while the men are talking. That said, while he has some misogynistic beliefs about women, he's got enough Pragmatic Villainy in him to accept female demons in his army, since if they managed to get far enough to become at least Mook level, than they're tough enough to be worth using as soldiers.
  • Real Men Wear Pink: One of the reasons why Soul Drains are called what they are is because he likes dancing shows and found the name ironic.
  • Sadist: He's always at his most vocally happy and enthusiastic when talking about all the misery, torture, and death that happens due to how he's set up Hell, which is most notable in his audio-tomes.
  • Satan: The one and only.
  • Sore Loser: After Johnny or Kinzie punches him in the face, Satan banishes Johnny, Kinzie, the Boss, and Jezebel from Hell so he can escape from the humiliation of getting his ass kicked by two mortals.
  • Villain Song: Sings one to Jezebel of how she has no choice to marry the Boss, and how she belongs to him.
  • Worthy Opponent: Upon seeing Johnny Gat firsthand and his self-sacrificing nature, he deems him to be this, and demands he marry Jezebel instead.

    Jezebel Mephistopheles 

Jezebel Mephistopheles

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/saints_row_gat_out_of_hell_jezebel_by_kebzuref_db64stf.jpg
Played By: Kate Reinders
Satan's daughter whom he has arranged to marry the Boss.
  • Anti Anti Christ: Has no intentions of becoming an evil ruler of Hell like her father.
  • Curtains Match the Windows: Red hair, red eyes, red skin... she is a demon.
  • Cute Monster Girl: For the daughter of Satan, she's pretty damn hot.
  • Daddy's Little Villain: Averted. She wants to be free from her father, and find her own love. Satan doesn't take kindly to it.
  • Graceful Ladies Like Purple: She wears a purple dress and her room is mostly purple.
  • Hates Their Parent: And really, since her father is the literal Devil, you can't blame her.
  • Hot as Hell: Instead of the demonic look of Satan and his minions, Jezebel looks like an attractive human woman. In addition, unlike many instances of this trope (and her namesake), she's not really a seducer archetype, but beautiful in a much more wholesome way. She's almost a Disney Princess except for being red and horned.
  • "I Want" Song: Sings of how she desires to be free from her father's grip and wishes to find her own love.
  • Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Subverted Trope. If you heard her name, it does certainly sound like the daughter of the Devil, but she's one of the nicest people in the cast.
  • Nice Girl: Shows absolutely no malevolence to anyone but her father, who frankly deserves it.
  • Rebellious Princess: Does not want to live just as her father's pawn.

    Blackbeard 

Blackbeard

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/blackbeard_saints_row.jpg
Played By: Matthew Mercer
The king of pirates himself. Blackbeard has set up a recreation of his ship out in the wasteland of Hell where most of the demons will leave him alone.
  • Acrofatic: He's pretty fat, as you can tell by the fact that he doesn't wear a shirt under that vest. Doesn't stop him from running around his ship drop-kicking imps.
  • Defeat Means Friendship: After being defeated, he joins Johnny's quest.
  • Evil Is Not a Toy: He summoned hellish imps onto his ship to serve as a replacement crew, but the imps refused to take orders from him and ended up mutinying instead. Good thing Johnny was there to get rid of them for him. The imps are more willing to serve Johnny afterwards.
  • Did You Just Scam Cthulhu?: Blackbeard has spent years systematically robbing Satan's tax collectors to make himself rich on the Devil's money. Satan is seriously irked by this.
  • Historical Domain Character: A famous real-life pirate.
  • No Challenge Equals No Satisfaction: There's a plethora of riches ripe for him to take quite easily spread across Hell, but he deliberately clues potential competitors in on how to find them because to him, wealth means nothing if there's nobody to compete with for getting it.
  • Pirate: The most well-known Pirate, natch.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: Blackbeard has red eyes in Hell, just like Shakespeare.
  • Shaped Like Itself: "A pirate without water to sail on is like a... pirate without... water to sail on."
  • Sleeves Are for Wimps: He doesn't want to hide his arm tattoos, does he?
  • Talk Like a Pirate: Obviously. That said, his accent is more Irish than Devonshire (where the real Blackbeard was from). Johnny initially thinks he's just putting on a pirate voice.
  • Tattooed Crook: More like Tattooed Pirate. And they glow.

    William Shakespeare 

William Shakespeare

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/saints_row_shakespeare.jpg
Played By: Liam O'Brien
The legendary Shakespeare was once one of Satan's top minions until he was found teaching his daughter some of his works and was thrown out. Now he runs Hell's entertainment district.
  • Deal with the Devil: Will sold his soul to Satan so his plays could get the fame that they deserved.
  • Eskimos Aren't Real: The Launch Trailer for "Gat out of Hell" claimed that William Shakespeare was a fictional character from all those movies about poems and love.
  • Historical Domain Character: The William Shakespeare.
  • Historical Villain Upgrade: Downplayed, the real William Shakespeare never made a Deal with the Devil for fame, as far as we know, but by the time of the game, he's no longer in Satan's good graces.
  • Large Ham: Well, he is a famous playwright.
  • Pet the Dog: While he admits that the plays Jezebel would write for him were terrible, she found her zeal for happy subject matters worth it, seeing her as a true friend (possibly more).
  • The Spymaster: Served as one for Satan before he was banished and joined Johnny's rebellion.
  • Third-Person Person: In addition to always speaking as if he's giving stage directions, Will always refers to himself in the third person. An audio log reveals that he does this to make him seem more mysterious.
  • Pointy Ears: He has them in Hell.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: Seriously, look at those creepy red eyes.

    Vlad The Impaler 

Vlad the Impaler

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/saints_row_gat_out_of_hell_artwork_8.jpg
Played By: Liam O'Brien
One of history's most ruthless men who Gat finds trapped in a Cool and Unusual Punishment in one of Hell's prisons. After being rescued, he joins Gat as an ally.
  • Cassandra Did It: When Vlad told Satan that one of their wars with Heaven was not going to fair well due to their lack of man-power, Satan ignored him. When it worked out as well as Vlad predicted, he blamed Vlad for it and sentenced him to his eternal torment.
  • Cold-Blooded Torture: In the Shawarma cutscene, Vlad has made Killbane his torture monkey. He is Vlad the Impaler, after all.
  • Cool and Unusual Punishment: We see Vlad being tortured in the bowels of Hell. What is the torture? Being stuck into an elementary school and being forced to listen to 'The Wheels on the Bus' for eternity.
    Johnny: So, why'd they pick the short version of the song to torture you with?
    Vlad: THAT WAS THE SHORT VERSION?!
  • Disproportionate Retribution: What does Vlad wish to do to all the people who broke into his castle and used it as their own personal clubhouse? Systematically impale them, of course!
  • Funny Foreigner: What happens when you take Wallachian tyrant Vlad the Impaler and put him through a comical form of torture.
  • Heroic BSoD: After listening to 'The Wheels on the Bus' for an eternity, Vlad falls apart from the trauma.
  • Historical Domain Character: The historical basis of Dracula himself.
  • How the Mighty Have Fallen: He used to be a brutal Wallachian tyrant feared by countless people. Now he's a put-upon prisoner of Hell tortured by being forced to listen to nursery rhymes forever.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: Like Blackbeard and Shakespeare, Vlad has red eyes. He has to regain his formidable reputation with Johnny and Kinzie's help.
  • Tin Tyrant: He wears cool black armour with glowing highlights.
  • Torment by Annoyance: Forced by Satan to listen to 'The Wheels On The Bus' on repeat for all eternity.
