Summary: Vox had never been killed before. But when Alastor left, all of Hell knew he was missing his protector, and that he preferred talking things down. He was charming, manipulative, and it worked.
But then he started drinking at night to ease the pain of his best friend leaving him high and dry, and the people of Hell took their crack at him. At first, he held his own, but after so long, someone found a weakness. He died.
And then he kept dying. And now ... he's different.
Notes: Welcome to my first chaptered Hazbin fic! I came up with this after seeing a good few designs of Vox's overlord forms, and wondered what he would be like if he was so powerful he didn't know what to do with himself.
Overpowered characters can be really fun, in my opinion, especially if you can give them fun caveats. Vox just ... lost his whole mind in this case! Chapter One starts off slow, but we will get there!!
