Alastor

Alastor stands out from many of Hell's more chaotic residents with his kind and well-maintained personality. He gives the first impression of a good-natured and charming man, with a permanently wide smile on his face at all times. Alastor's demeanor, mannerisms, and even his voice are similar to an old-fashioned radio announcer and speaks with a transatlantic accent, often using colorful anachronisms such as "photo show" and refers to Charlie as "enchanting demon beauty". This playful dandy exterior, however, obscures a much darker side to him, one with high levels of self-importance who will not hesitate to use physical violence when others do not act in accordance with his very particular values ​​or expectations. Alastor is described as a man of duality. He highly values ​​good manners, affability, and intelligence in others, and will actively look down on those who do not meet his standards, however, he will often play fast and loose with these arbitrary rules regarding himself and his own conduct. His smile is also a demonstration of power and dominance, and miserable people are seen by him as weak.[21] Alastor has a strange sense of morality, which is described as "not normal", and has been noted to be quite sadistic and even cannibalistic, devouring lesser demons or those who incur his anger. Despite this, he remains close friends with the other cannibals of Hell, including the inhabitants of the Cannibal Colony. He is narcissistic, not seeing many people on his level. However, this does not make him reckless. Despite being extremely powerful, Alastor is fully aware that there are other demons and entities that rival him in terms of power, such as other Overlords. For this reason, he is wary of these demons, as they can harm him if he is not careful.[22] Despite everything, Alastor genuinely wants to help Charlie run the Happy Hotel, albeit for his own amusement and hopes that his failure sides with his idealism. Alastor also dismisses the idea that redemption is possible as laughable, however, he fulfills his role as patron as promised, providing staff to the hotel and protecting Charlie and his business from outside threats. He sees the entire endeavor as a fun distraction from his decades of boredom.
