Cassian does engage in petty to grand larceny at least in my headcanon. I'm sure the next phase of creation will give us a chance to further flesh out our MC's sins.
We may not need it, canonically most pople go to hell... And whereas there is people like Alastor who was a serial killer when he was alive had definitively earned a spot in hell, most of the sinners seems to be poor bastards that were victims of the system...

For example Emberlynn Pinkle was send to hell apparently for being a monsterfucker and a shitty wattapad witer... Which is cringe AF, but not enough to earn eternal damnation IMO...
[X] - yes use ai
 
I feel like the might depend on how we go about things. if we try to take something from someone we might be able to learn more faster. though it is pretty risky.
I will say that there is a very special character you can learn hexs and curses from; Someone that isn't from either Hazbin nor Helluva.

yes characters from other shows, movies, and media will show up but very rarely.
 
SV has always had the trend towards that, nerdy people equals nerdy MC to be picked.
I don't know. I mean the other quest did have a literal polar opposite of a brainy character as the runner up by only 5 votes short in a 87 vote total. I can also remember this fate/D×D crossover quest where we were more crazy magic enthusiast Eldritch abomination than actually brainy. sort of grand hammy philosopher scientist. was wacky good fun.
No, but good guess. Last hint is that they're a horror character. A character that loves nails.
pinhead?

One month, One long month since you've fallen from that great big red sky up above down to this shit stain of a city. Sure you've survived, hell you've even found an apartment to live in and everything, but everyday was the same torturous cycle, over and over again.

You would wake up with a splitting headache thanks to your lovely apartment neighbors next door as they loudly and furiously pounding the shit out of each other and screaming out their love. After that, you would shuffle half dead out of your mattress, which was as soft as steel beams and smelled like fermented horse urine, to your mold ridden closet of a bathroom and try to look half way presentable while using nothing other than water from a chipped and broke sink that was always either boiling hot or so cold it froze your fingers numb. After that you would just stare . . . Stare at the thing in the mirror that was now your face, your new face. After falling down, you realized that not only were you now stuck in a nightmare but you were changed into one too. You didn't know when you'll get use to your new self, or if you ever will, but it sure as hell wasn't today.

What do you now look like? Are you just a slightly modified and recolored human like Alastor, Carmilla, and Charile, or are you more monster than man?

[Write in] - what do you look like now as a sinner? Do you have too many or too few eyes? Wing? Claws? Tails? How tall or short are you? Be as descriptive as possible and please keep in mind both Jackson's stats and him as a person when creating his monstrous appearance.

Dressing in one out of the dozens of dirty and yellowed wife-beater and grey sweat pants you owned, which sadly was the only wear you had at all, with it all being topped by a greasy hat with the lettering "SHIT SHACK" truely bring your dignified look all togeather.

Yes, you somehow manged to get a job so soon after falling, you can't figure out if it was some corrupt form of providence from up above or a twist joke from the devil down here. The place was called the SHIT SHACK ᵀᴹ , yes with TM included. It was shady back alley room that was extended out with rusty sheet metal and rotting plywood into a "restaurant" and You hated it. Sure, The job paid surprisingly well when you only really stood over a fryer and dumped god-knows-what into boiling oil to serve; But the cost of rent for your joke of an apartment and food, packs of stale ramen packets with no seasoning . . . come on man, left you with a collective income of zero. You tried to haggle for a better pay from your boss, One Mr Gumlips, but it didn't go so well.

"Look kid"

Gumlips gruffly mumbled through a burning fat cigar still in his mouth as he puffed out a rings of inky black smoke. The "man" was shuffling various papers and documents clumsy through his hooves while sitting by his plastic fold out table that acted as his desk. His "office" must have been some sort of restroom not too long ago as tiles lined every inch of the place floor to ceiling. Your eyes wandered back to the pig man as he leaned against his uncomfortable looking wooden chair and continued

"I can't give you any more if you don't get me some more"

His comically large and bushy eyebrows shot up and down as his eyes motioned downward to his crusty old chinos.

"But if you won't, THEN GET OUT!"

Then you would end your day sitting down infront of your TV surrounded by too many bottles to count as you drank the memories of the day away before heading to bed . . . What the hell are you doing?

You're living in a shit-covered, rat-infested apartment, working a dead end job, and drinking mud water for beer alone . . . All alone. You were alone like always, like when you were living.

Your life up above wasn't what many would called ideal. You, your parents, and brother were crammed into a run down apartment, not so unlike what you have now. You were all close to one another, but you had always known you were second in your parents' love; Your brother was the true apple of their eyes. He was the star quarterback, he was dating the pretty girl in school and could get any girl he wanted, he was prom king, he was the most popular, he had friends, he was loved, he had everything.

You had nothing. You were nothing: You were the loser who hid in the library stuffing his fat face with candy instead of talking to others, you were the kid with no friends to hang with, you were fatty who couldn't run a single mile without passing out, you were the guy people only talked to when they needed to pass a chemistry test, you were the guy who spent more time mixing chemicals than actually spending time with your father who would rather watch football than acknowledge his other son, you were the kid who cried alone at night begging to have someone to care for you, talk to you, love you, but no . . . You had nothing because you were nothing.

Your mind further receded to the darkest memory you had back when you were still living: The day you died. There were these three friends who always loved to torment you when ever the could. It started small: Name calling, Shoving, sticking gum in your hair, throwing trash at you, throwing you in the trash, stealing money from you, kicking you into dirty puddles, so on and so on. You never fought back, you couldn't fight back. You stood there taking it all silently hopi- no praying that someone, anyone would help, But they never did.

This escalation would keep rising and rising till the last week of school, . During that day you were spending your lunch peacefully in the chemistry lab, Mixing different elements and compounds for the fun of it. You had gotten up to leave for a quick leak, during that time is when you guess the three executed their last grand act against you.

When you returned you immediately heard something burning. Looking around you saw a large, red, paper capsule placed in the middle of your chemistry set; The wick attached to it set ablaze nearly reaching the body . . . A firecracker.

Before you could react, the small bomb went off. The blast nor the heat, hell not even the glass shards, was the part of the explosion that would kill you, no it was the now boiling chemicals that clung to your face and hands.

You tried to call for help, God how you tried, but your mind went into complete shock as you felt every last inch of muscle and skin on your head melt into your dripping hands as you covered your eyes. The only thing you could do was scream, run and scream. You didn't know where you went or who was near you because your own eye lids was dripping down into your sockets. The only thing you could beside your own pained wailing was those from others. You could only image: Seeing you stumble and run as you yelled a gurgling cry for help as your throat quickly filled with liquifing flesh. Then you tripped. It must have been some set of stairs because you vaguely remember the sensation of rough edges cutting and hitting you as you fell, till you heard some crack. Your body went limp, then numb, then cold as you slipped into nothing.

And now here you were . . . Nothing changed. You were still that lonely, desperate, failure with nothing to be proud of and no one to remember you. They were right, you were a loser, a nobody, nothing and you always would be.

. . .

no, no, no, No, NO,

"NO!!!"

You screamed as you threw an emptied bottle at your TV, smashing the screen and sending sparks flying.

No, you wouldn't live like this. You wouldn't live like some rat hiding away to just end up dead in some alley. No, no God damn it. You would be something. You would be greater: Greater than your living self, greater than your brother, greater than your bullies, greater than anyone has ever been. You would be loved, respected, rich, you would be

An Overlord.

The way that national/Jackson's personal actions will work is that every time one of his stats are upgraded three times, that category of actions under it would get one more additional action that they can do under it.

One last vote, This time about Jackson's sin. Since he has the sin of Gluttony it means that he over indulges, but the question is on what? Drugs? Alcohol?, don't worry about the Scene early because I'll change it later to better fit what we vote on now, food? Sky's the limit as long as doesn't bleed over too much into other sins. You can't say something relating to sex too much because that would be more lustful than gluttonous.
[Write in] - what do you go to in a time of weakness.

It's fine you got him down more or less how I imagined him.

Is the appearance vote separate from the action vote?

"I can't give you any more if you don't get me some more"

His comically large and bushy eyebrows shot up and down as his eyes motioned downward to his crusty chinos.

"Put if you won't, THEN GET OUT!"
I'm pretty sure the Put is supposed to be But.
 
fingers.

[X] [Appearance] you were screwed over. sure, you still had a normal amount of eyes in your now football shaped head. yeah, your nose wasn't that weird conpared to what other people were working with. your hair wasn't that fucking terrible. but you were so, so short. you'd trade your right arm, or put up with 3 weird insect ones, to just be a few feet taller. (yes, I've picked Arnold Shortman for our demon form.)

I'll leave actions up to others. our appearance and Gluttony should be voted on separate from actions, preferably in a task vote.

in retrospect, I vaguely regret not making caffiene addict street racer who died setting off a gas explosion when he swirved off the road to avoid running over a cat.

For actions I'd like to prioritize PUMP SOME IRON! and SAY MY NAME. Because being able to run to the end of the block without passing out and the capability to lift more then the Pillsbury Doughboy is probably more important then owning a weapon. And I'd rather avoid any possible true name magic bullcrap down the road. I honestly thought the nickname in the last vote was gonna be the demon name but eh it'll be fine.

I don't think that's actually a thing in this setting, given Charlie broadcasts her name on television, and not knowing people's names doesn't seem to do anything to stop Alastor from Hazbin Hotel from defeating overlords and taking possession of their souls.

I was going to do that, but I both needed a third option for Prestige and I felt that being called nerd throughout the entire quest would be a little degrading. Althrough don't think that Poindexter is off the table completely. I can definitely see our future friends calling us that.

So maybe we can thematically make drugs that look like irritated-looking candies with toxic signs on them.

Edit: Made some edits to szymonmolitoris2 description with toxic signs & a gas mask to make him look like a demonic drug lord.

What about being like a softshell turtle trunk and all with chimera elements to reflect our stats physically? There is also the xmarks death injury guide lines the setting has
 
[X] Plan: We have to start somewhere

[X] Your appearance feels almost mocking, your arms and legs thinned and skeletal. Lacking the strength, small though it was, that you had in life. Your stomach is bulbous and soft, as if all the weight you had was concentrated there. Despite your height not changing you appear unnaturally lanky. You've taken to wearing baggier clothes to try and look less, unbalanced. It doesn't really work though, your hands are still as bony as ever and you haven't been able to find gloves that fit properly. Your eyes seem to glow with an internal light, and your mouth is much smaller than it seems like it should be. Finally your hair has become stiff and bristly, like thin sticks of wood almost, if not for the waxy texture they have. The ends sometimes catch fire when your excited or overwhelmed, letting out a smell like olive oil.
