Villa

"*This hotel is what's in! It's new! It's daring! It's novel! But, the clientele, eh... Could use little pizazz. So boring! So drab! So depressing! 'My parents didn't love me' this, 'my dog died' that. Blah-blah-blah! Lighten up, darlings! Someone's gotta turn these Debbie Downers into Pollyannas!*"
— Villa to Charlie and Vaggie.

**Villa** is a supporting character in *Hazbin Hotel: Journey to the Light*.

The unbothered popular girl of the Hazbin Hotel Crew, Villa is a wealthy and self-absorbed fashion icon, known for her immense popularity. As a poodle sinner, she arrives at the hotel following its grand reopening, driven by a desire to transform the uninspiring residents of the establishment to suit her tastes. She is Crymini's polar opposite and "best friend".

## Personality

"*I can't help it, sweeties! It's in my nature to help those who are less fab, good-looking, and fortunate than I! (briefly looks at the audience) And who **isn't** less fortunate than I? I want to turn all these boring sad-sacks into stars who have what it takes to go from Hell's dumpster to Heaven's VIP lounge!*"
— Villa to Loona, Octavia, and Crymini.

Villa stands in striking contrast to Crymini; she adores all things girly, exudes vanity, exudes primness, extravagance, diva-like behavior, and an undeniable conceit. Her presence is larger than life, matched only by her even more enormous attitude. She carries an insufferable smugness and sanctimony, perpetually musing on how someone as "kind" as herself could end up in Hell. Villa lacks the emotional baggage that plagues the other residents of the hotel, and she never misses an opportunity to boast about it. In a passive-aggressive manner reminiscent of a "mean girl," she possesses an encyclopedic knowledge of fashion and the art of making people shine, thanks to her past as Angel Dust's stylist during his tenure with Valentino. She has taken it upon herself to change anyone she deems dull or uninspiring to her own liking. Villa has a tendency to objectify people, labeling her clients as "projects" and viewing them as little more than dolls or test subjects for her styling experiments.

With an elitist and pompous demeanor, Villa openly admits to being a classist, displaying a self-righteous willingness to aid those less fortunate—albeit solely when they pique her interest, as she is no charity case. When engaging with the less privileged, she maintains a perpetually condescending tone, convinced that they are "sluggish" and can only attain stardom with her intervention. This condescending manner of hers, particularly toward the hotel's residents, has led to considerable aversion from many of them, including notable figures like Crymini and Loona, despite her well-intentioned efforts to make them shine.

True to her persona, Villa is unabashedly vain and primarily focused on her own interests. She exerts her authority over her Hellhound bodyguards, compelling them to shoulder the burden of carrying all her belongings and equipment. She treats them with the same disdainful attitude she might extend to dogs, even going so far as to feed them chimpkins and offer a patronizing "good boy" when they meet her expectations.

## Appearance

Villa boasts a striking appearance, resembling a tall, poodle-like sinner adorned with spots scattered across her fluffy white fur. Her long, poofy tail adds to her distinctive charm. Her most captivating feature is her magenta-colored eyes, featuring yellow heart-shaped irises and vertical pupils that draw attention. She's adorned with pink stripes that cascade down both her legs, and her head is crowned by a pair of two polka-dotted bow ties, which intriguingly bear a second set of yellow eyes. Completing her ensemble, she wears a pink, dog-like collar and a white dress adorned with two prominent magenta hearts on the front.

## Relationships

### Allies

#### Crymini

"*Who is Crymini? (the rooms darkens before a spotlight shines on Villa) ...My polar opposite. She's a negative Nancy, a sour soul, a Debbie Downer, you name it, we couldn't be more different! And she's such a spoilsport, too. I can't stand it! I'm rich, I'm beautiful, I'm smart, I'm successful, I'm **popular**! She's... Well, she's none of those things. She's always trying to stand in the way of my good work. It's as if she wants everybody to stay boring forever! It's my duty to save her from the black hole of munanity!*"
— Villa about Crymini.

Villa has an "overbearing big sister" type of relationship with Crymini. Upon first arriving to the Hazbin Hotel, Villa selected Crymini out of all the patients of the hotel to be her "new project", intending on challenging herself with straightening the delinquent out until Crymini would make for the ideal pupil. Naturally, Crymini was adverse towards Villa and tried to ignore or rebuke her, but Villa persisted and was able to give Crymini a makeover against her will.

### Princess

Princess serves as Villa's loyal pet, frequently accompanying her tucked away inside her purse. Princess occasionally emerges from this royal vessel to scrutinize the sinners, passing judgment on their worthiness for Villa's "help." It's clear that Princess holds a deep affection for Villa, displaying fierce loyalty by hissing at or even launching attacks on anyone who dares to touch Villa without her consent. Villa, in return, lavishes affection on Princess, compelling a team of her bodyguards to fan and pamper the esteemed feline. Remarkably, Princess stands as the singular being that has elicited genuine attachment and compassion from Villa, making their bond all the more special.

### Others

#### Angel Dust

"*Angel Dust! My babe, I've done his makeup for Val's films many a time! He's... Alright, I suppose? I mean, I won't deny his obvious 'charm', and he has a knack for putting on one Hell of a show! He's... An interesting character, to be sure. At least, he has more going on for him than most of the dreadful nothingburgers in this hotel. He has much to work on before I'll consider him true friend material, but I see a lot of potential... With my help, of course.*"
— Villa on Angel Dust.

Angel and Villa seem to have a complicated relationship, having known each other through their work with Valentino. Villa has done Angel's makeup many times for Valentino's films. Angel appears to dislike Villa while she compliments him on his style and for being more far more "interesting" than most of the hotel's residents, but claims he has much to work on before they can be considered friends.
