Appearance

Adam was an angel with a human appearance. Most of the time, he wore a mask that appeared similar to other Exorcists, though with normal-looking eyes and golden facial expressions. The mask also held a pair of horns similar to an Exorcist, albeit longer, smoother, and with a golden ornamental attachment on the tips. Under his mask, he is revealed to be a fair-skinned angel with golden-yellow eyes that have dark bags underneath, a stubble-beard on his chin, and slightly messy, short cedar-brown colored hair. He also had a pair of large and golden wings on his back. In contrast to other angels that have appeared thus far, Adam's halo was bright gold in appearance, and similar to the Exorcists, has two spikes pointing up and down from each other, though these spikes are located at the front of his halo as opposed to the likes of Lute's halo, which has its spikes in the middle, joined by a small dot. He wore a smooth white and golden cloak that appears to have a large 'A' symbol emblazoned on the front. His visible hands were black in appearance, and had gold-tipped spikes on the back of his collar. In "The Show Must Go On", Lucifer mentions that Adam had "really let himself go", implying Adam had become overweight. Adam's entire body gives off a white glow throughout his fight with Lucifer until he collapses from being stabbed.

Personality

Adam appeared very egotistical and unsympathetic. As the leader of his Exorcist army, he took his stance as the Exorcists' head figure very seriously, sending antagonistic threats towards demons and anyone for standing in their way or whoever disobeyed his command, as he did so with Vaggie for refusing to kill a Sinner, cutting her wings, and leaving her in Hell. He also displayed traits of extreme narcissism and chauvinism, believing himself the perfect man due to being the first and claiming he had never made a mistake in his life, since he was the first man to be born on Earth, and he claimed that all the male bloodline came from him and brag about how big and great his dick is. His narcissism was so great that, upon his defeat, he refused to admit how far he had fallen and expressed a god-like complex by proclaiming his enemies should be grateful for him having fathered the beginning of humanity while demanding they worship him for his deeds. Adam did not appear to be aware that his egotistical and depraved behavior towards Lilith was the cause of her leaving him. When meeting Charlie Morningstar, he didn't hate her for being a child of the woman he was married to before she fell in love with Lucifer, and was relatively patient with her, although remained dismissive of her suggestions. Adam was also sexist, constantly addressing other women as "bitches" and enjoyed their sexual depravity, as he admitted to Vaggie that her forbidden love relationship with Charlie was "hot as fuck", albeit it is unclear whether this was about their genders or them being angel and demon. Despite this, he seemed to have a good relationship with Lute, whom he seemed to have in very high esteem, even though he was her superior.

Personality 2

Despite his obliviousness, Adam did show moments of common sense and self-awareness, such as when the death of an Exorcist was discovered, he knew that if they decided to kill the Sinners now after just one week after the most recent Extermination, then demons would catch on to how Exorcists can be killed. Adam also knew when to slow down on his egoism, after inadvertently exposing the purpose of the Extermination to all the courts of Heaven, including Sera, the highest seraphim authority in Heaven and the one who ordered that no one but the Exorcists can know. Adam may have enjoyed playing music, specifically with a guitar, as he outright claimed to be in a band. He also had a poor view of radio and stereos, telling Alastor those already belong to the past, considering them to be old and useless. Adam was also quite cruel and sadistic, openly admitting in front of Charlie that he enjoyed killing demons, calling it entertainment, and tended to announce how many killed in the Extermination. He also dismissed Charlie's project of redemption not because he didn't believe in sinners being redeemed, because if she succeeded with that project he wouldn't be able to continue killing demons. His eagerness to kill demons and get his revenge was so big that he advanced the date of the next Extermination to six months instead of a year. Despite his sadism and cruelty, Adam was capable of recognizing and praising the abilities of others, when he reunited with Vaggie he admitted she was one of the best exorcists he had under his command. He also genuinely commended Lute for killing 275 demons during the most recent extermination, and congratulated her with a fist bump. Adam also praised Vaggie for being Charlie's partner, albeit sarcastically.

Trivia

Adam shares the same name as the first man created by God in the biblical story of Genesis. "Overture" confirms that he is indeed the same figure. As Adam is the ancestor of all of humanity, all human souls in Heaven and Hell are his descendants. Adam being the one who named Vaggie may a nod to how he was given the ability to name things in the Bible. Adam's outfit during the extermination in "The Show Must Go On" bore a golden leaf-like decoration at the front which may be a reference to the fig leaf he used to cover his nudity after eating the Fruit of Knowledge in the Bible. Adam plays the guitar with his left hand (dominant hand strums), however, during the court scene in "Welcome to Heaven", Adam plucked a feather off his own wing and used his right hand when writing the list for Charlie. This may indicate he is ambidextrous, or that he is right-handed but plays the guitar left-handed, given guitars can be played with the non-dominant hand. For some reason, Adam wore his mask all the time, during Exterminations and even in Heaven in public. The guitar that Adam plays is made of a U-shaped harp connected to the other end of another subsequent harp. In "Overture", Adam states that ribs are his favorite food. This is a reference to how his second wife, Eve, was created by using one of his ribs in the biblical story. However, it is unknown if Eve being created from his rib is canon in the series. A silhouette somewhat reminiscent of Adam can be seen during the opening scenes of the Hazbin Hotel pilot, although lacking a halo and bearing a pointed head. Adam's robe bears a Christian Cross, a trait shared with St. Peter. One of Adam's requirements about getting into heaven is sticking it to the man, which could be a reference to his voice actor, Alex Brightman's "Stick It To The Man" in the School of Rock Musical which Alex Brightman also starred in.

Trivia 2

In a video posted on July 5, 2024, during a conversation about killing off characters Vivziepop brought up Adam, saying "I wish we had more time with him", indicating that Adam likely won't be returning. According to the Hazbin Hotel Playbill page posted on Vivziepop's Instagram, Adam was voted "biggest dick in all of Heaven".
