Species- Angel

Occupation- Lieutenant of the Exorcists

Appearance- Lute wears attire near identical to other Exorcists, but with the only visual difference being her mask's right pupil is a white circle with an X over it instead of a white X, and her mask's horns curved backwards. She also usually has bloodstains on her grey minidress. Under her mask, Lute is revealed to be a humanoid white-skinned angel with pale yellow-golden eyes, black lips, and short, neck-length pale white hair that has been cut into an asymmetrical bob cut with an undercut. She also appears to have grey eyeshadow for makeup. In "The Show Must Go On", Lute lost her left arm after ripping it off of her bicep to escape the rubble of the Hazbin Hotel. As revealed in "Storyteller", she is shown to now have a golden prosthetic replacement arm which features Adam's halo around the wrist as a bracelet.

Personality- Lute was Adam's lieutenant and stoic subordinate who was always by his side. She and Adam appeared to have a friendly relationship, with Adam complimenting her on her large kill count, and Lute joining him in his antics. She and Adam held several beliefs in common, such as that angels are supposedly perfect and never make mistakes. Like Adam, she enjoys her status as an angel and dislikes the very idea that angels can make mistakes. Lute especially shows a sadistic side in demeaning Charlie, specifically on how the Exorcists feel about her and other Hellborn demons. Her sadism was demonstrated in "The Show Must Go On" when she shouted to "rip Vaggi's c*** mouth out her ass!", something that even Adam found excessive. In regards to demons, she holds deep prejudice and xenophobia towards them, openly referring to them as "filth", "monsters", and in swear words. Like all Exorcists, she doesn't care about sinners and resorts to killing them every year in the Extermination, taking pride in how many demons she's killed. She views sinners in particular as lost causes and incapable of changing, claiming that the only chance they had to access heaven was their life on Earth. She's very rigid with her worldview, and will immediately dismiss anything that contradicts this. Based on her interaction with Charlie, Lute would be happy to target all denizens of Hell, sinner and Hellborn alike, during the Exterminations, and views them collectively as inherently inferior to angels, evil and deserving of their extermination. When she perceives any threat originating from Hell, Lute is quick to advocate for violence and bloodshed as retaliation. When the exorcists discover one of their own was killed for the first time, Lute is furious at their death and desires retribution, demanding they immediately return to permanently slaughter everyone in Hell to avenge them. This shows her viciousness, but also her impulsiveness, as despite this incident being solid proof that Exorcists are vulnerable and can be killed by demons, Lute wants to dive right into Hell without a plan. She has also shown to have a strong sense of loyalty to Heaven, as shown when despite despising all demons, sinners and Hellborns alike, she follows the pardon arranged by Lucifer with Heaven for the Exorcists to leave the Hellborn demons alone and only target sinners. However, this changed in "The Show Must Go On" following a period of animosity between Lute and Adam vs Charlie Morningstar and Vaggi, in which they directed the next extermination directly against the Hazbin Hotel, and attacked several hellborn demons such as Charlie and Razzle and Dazzle. Lute herself is shown to be very loyal to Sera, Emily, and Adam, her superiors, and she follows their orders without hesitation. She takes the more responsible role, making sure to remind Adam of the seriousness of his duties and to follow Sera's orders of keeping the Extermination a secret from the rest of Heaven. Later, despite her burning desire for revenge, Lute nevertheless continued to follow Emily and Sera's commands as the High Seraphims of Heaven, withheld any plans to attack Hell again and begrudgingly accompanied them as they attempted to try and make peace with Hell's inhabitants, though she refused to participate in negotiations. In "Curtain Call" she also followed Abel's command when he told her to stand down, though she was visually irritated by this. When Adam died, an emotionally broken Lute rushed to his side and tearfully screamed his name, which showed that she deeply cared about him outside of their professional relationship. His death would motivate her to openly advocate for the decimation of everyone in Hell, sinner or not, using Heaven's risked safety and the perceived threat that she believes Hell poses to it as pretexts, and will often use genocidal rhetoric when referring to Hell's denizens. Despite grieving the loss of a loved one, Lute is completely remorseless to the fact that she most definitely inflicted the same emotions of anguish and despair against Hell's population, and even smirked when confronted about the fact by Vox. This showcases the dichotomy in her moral compass, as she callously views the killings of sinners as "justifiable" but is completely angered and frustrated by the fact that no one in Heaven seems to mourn or even care that Adam was killed in an extermination, ironically enough this being an "eye for an eye" situation, something that she sang about in Gravity. At her core, Lute is uncompromising, refusing to give up her mission and purpose as an Exorcist, even viewing mercy as an unforgivable insult. She was willing to tear off her left arm in a fury to continue the fight against Vaggi and even went as far as to tell the Speaker of God that she was willing to give her life for Heaven. She is also unwilling to accept Sir Pentious' redemption, still seeing him as a sinner instead of a redeemed winner, and would use his story of when he was alive and his attack on Adam as evidence against his character, even claiming that Sir Pentious himself killed Adam when in fact it was the other way around; this however might have been an attempt on her part to discredit Sir Pentious or, just as likely, a result of Lute having a distorted view of what happened during the last extermination (as she claims that Sir Pentious was under Lucifer's command) as well as a delusional belief that Adam (and angels in general) could do no wrong. It has also been shown that Lute is pragmatic enough to know when a fight is lost: After Adam is killed and the army is left at the mercy of Lucifer, Charlie and their allies, Lute took Adam's halo and called for the Exorcists to retreat. Despite this, Lute's determination in her mission shows her resourcefulness and tenacity, as she proceeds to use any resources at her disposal to keep the status quo of Heaven, further demonstrated by ordering Lilith to take care of Charlie or temporarily calling off the deal Lilith was part of. She also holds deep hatred and contempt towards Vaggi, seeing her as a traitor for even sympathizing with demons, going so far as to rip Vaggi's left eye out when she spared a sinner child as an exorcist and leaving her for dead. This hatred would exponentially increase following Adam's death. Vivziepop explains that Lute is a character who sees herself as someone not taken as seriously as she thinks she should be, and since Adam was the only one who really gave her that purpose and that support, without him, she has a great emptiness that she fills with a hallucination of him that exists in her mind, which is a manifested representation of Lute's deteriorating mental health and grief. As shown, this "Adam" has accurate mannerisms and personality to the real Adam, however, Lute understands on a subconscious level that this is not the real Adam, as the hallucination itself confirmed that "he" is merely a figment of her mind and he doesn't have any knowledge, memories, or personality traits from the real Adam that she doesn't know of as something consisted entirely of Lute's own memories and knowledge of him. Vivziepop says that because Lute knew him, this "Adam" is Adam, but it is also Lute's version of him. Nevertheless, Lute speaks and interacts with her illusion of Adam as if he is the real one. In "Storyteller", Lute is shown to have a near-obsessive desire for revenge against all demons after Adam's death, showcased by her deteriorating mental health. Alongside this, she desperately keeps using Heaven's risked safety to go down to Hell and kill everyone, even going as far as attempting to not only challenge Sera but also yell at The Speaker of God in order to plead her genocidal crusade, which she believes is the "clear choice" as she coldly told Emily in "Weapon of Mass Distraction". Her hallucinated "Adam" also pushes Lute to avenge him and slaughter all the demons of Hell, encouraging her murderous impulses and desire for revenge. This would eventually lead to her taking advantage of an overloaded Might of Lilith in "Curtain Call", when she attempted to stop Emily, the Hazbin Hotel staff and Hell's Overlords from containing the cannon and preventing the partial destruction of Pentagram City, even though the explosion would have killed her as well, highlighting the fact that her madness and hatred is slowly destroying her sense of reason. After Emily helped Sir Pentious rebuild the Gate of Heaven while also delivering Cherri Bomb's love letter to him, she's seen seething with anger for what had transpired, leaving the scene in silence. Abel looks at Lute fearing her insanity and hatred might poison the rest of the Exorcists, showcasing her delusions have become stronger than ever.
