## Biography

### Events of *Hazbin Hotel: Journey to the Light*

#### Season 5

In "Back in Business", Larson, Calliope, and Tingles return to the Mint City Casino after a Hell-wide tour. While Calliope does her makeup, Larson and Tingles demand drinks from Wally Wackford to toast their debauchery. During this, Tingles begins to reminisce about a disturbing incident at *Ozzie's* wherein they saw that Fizzarolli was still alive. Larson is initially uneased by this, but laughs at how they got so drunk on that night that they can't remember the details. Despite Tingles' unease, they laugh it off and enjoy their drinks at the casino.

In "When We Do Wrong, No One Forgets", Larson, Calliope, and Tingle successfully retrieve the children known as Charlie's Angels from Crimson's gang and present them to Mammon, who had been searching for them ever since Lucifer had alerted him to their presence. Initially reveling in the sadistic spectacle of Mammon's interrogation, their amusement quickly turns to terror when Giulia discloses that Fizzarolli had survived Mammon's previous assassination attempt. Mammon's fury then targets Larson and his companions, resulting in a comically exaggerated thrashing. After the children manage to escape with Ebony's assistance, Mammon commands the trio to eliminate Fizzarolli, disregarding their warnings about the imp's protection under Asmodeus. Mammon threatens them with a macabre fate of being submerged in molten gold and added to his collection of gold statues if they fail to carry out the assassination. He then sends them on their perilous mission.

In "The Clock is Ticking", Mammon attempts to convince Fizzarolli to rejoin him personally. When Asmodeus intervenes, the King of Greed leaves and summons Larson, Calliope, and Tingles, tasking them with the mission of retrieving Fizzarolli to ensure his continued profits from the imp's debts. When Mammon's underlings sought direction on how to proceed, a frustrated Mammon sarcastically suggested that they should locate Fizzarolli's scattered limbs and reattach them to him, thereby plunging him back into debt. As Mammon stormed away in irritation, Larson comedically takes this bizarre "advice" to heart, and Mammon's crew decided on a plan to kidnap Fizzarolli with the intention of reassembling his severed limbs, all in the hopes of triggering a relapse into debt.

In a hilariously absurd scene, Larson, Calliope, and Tingles find themselves in a dimly lit warehouse, where they create a makeshift murder board to track down Fizzarolli's missing limbs. Calliope questions the necessity of acquiring all of Fizzarolli's limbs, but Larson shrewdly explains that the more limbs they recover, the more Fizzarolli will owe Mammon. Tingles enthusiastically mentions that he possesses Fizzarolli's right arm, with a suggestive implication. Calliope, on the other hand, reveals she has Fizzarolli's left leg, which she uses for dance practice occasionally. This leaves only his left arm and right leg to be located. Embarrassingly, Larson confesses to selling Fizzarolli's right arm to an amputee, but Tingles says that would not be a problem.

In a slapstick manner, the trio tracks down the imp amputee and comically beats him up, retrieving Fizzarolli's arm by ripping it from the imp's body and leaving the amputee in agony. Calliope then demands to know the whereabouts of Fizzarolli's right leg, to which Larson admits he discarded it. This leads to Calliope giving him an angry dope slap. In a rush, they head to the overflowing Greed Ring landfill. The trio of villains make haste, with Tingles producing a large balloon at his fingertips and ascending into the air, with Larson and Calliope clinging onto him.

In the mid-credits scene, Larson, Calliope, and Tingles are stuck in the air, floating slowly and aimlessly. Calliope urges Tingles to steer towards the landfill, but Tingles humorously explains that he can't control their direction, and they have to rely on the whims of the wind to get them there.

## Personality

Larson is famous for his cackling, destructive, and thuggish behavior; a total immature, shitty rockstar type. between himself, Calliope and Tingles, he takes the most pleasure in scamming and harassing Loo Loo Land's customers and employees. He is also very slow-witted, as his dialogue is peppered with malapropisms, and disapraged Blitzø for being an imp, despite being one himself. Larson's defining personality trait is that he is a pyromaniac with a fetish for explosives and fireworks, giggling insanely while setting off a display of fireworks even when such displays endanger and injure the audience. He is notable for being the one who came up with the idea to dismember Fizzarolli's limbs, as well as the one who gave Blitzø his white patches by burning his face with hellfire while Calliope and Tingles held him down, a further testament to his sadism and brutality. He also loves destroying things in general, blowing cars and small animals apart with fireworks, and destroying his musical equipment after performances.

It is also implied that he might have been jealous of the admiration and attention Fizzarolli gained during his years at Loo Loo Land, noting that he was the park's most beloved worker before spitefully saying that no one would love him once he was dismembered and could no longer dance.

Larson is implied to be a sadomasochist, as he does not seem to be averse to pain the same way Calliope and Tingles are. He was still laughing and claimed to be getting an erection when he accidentally set himself on fire, and whenever he and his teammates are being punished by Mammon, Larson is depicted with a big grin on his face through and through.

## Appearance

Larson is a broad imp demon with an alligator-like appearance, including a long snout, sharp rep teeth, and a tail. He has white skin (likely scarring from burning himself), wears a light and dark green jester outfit with white gloves, is always hunched over, and has red eyes with concentric white circles in his irises. He has an additional hand at the tip of his tail.

### Others

#### Blitzø

While the imp was working at Loo Loo Land, Larson greatly enjoyed bullying and making a mockery of Blitzø. At one point, he poured a jug of Madcap Vodka on Blitzø after the imp injured himself trying to do Fizzarolli's signature dance move, and harshly reminded him that the audience were only laughing at him, rather than at his jokes and poor attempts at comedy. Larson is notable for the being the reason behind the white patches on Blitzø's face, having Calliope and Tingles hold him down as he burned his face, simply because Blitzø made a joke at his expense that the audience found slightly amusing.
