- "You go, boss!"
- — The Egg Boiz's catchphrase.
The Egg Boiz are recurring antagonists-turned-supporting protagonists in Hazbin Hotel: Journey to the Light.
They serve as recurring antagonists in Chapter 1, supporting antagonists in Chapter 2 and 5, and minor anti-heroes in Chapter 4.
They are an army of sycophantic Deviled Eggs who were created by supervillain and Kingpin, Sir Pentious, with the assistance of Baxter, and serve as foot soldiers and cannon fodder for the villainous snake demon, typically assisting him in his hostile takeover attempts by operating his weapons and machinery, or simply getting destroyed by his opponents. All of them have different numbers on their backs to distinguish them.
Following Sir Pentious' double death at the hands of Rum and Izzi, the Egg Boiz swore allegiance to Baxter, their co-creator, after Baxter had patched his strained relationship with Pentious.
Personality[]
The Egg Boiz all share essentially the exact same personality; they are very goofy and childish, cracking jokes even during battles. In their spare time, they are often shown playing with wooden toys in the image of their master and other figures of Hell, such as Cherri Bomb, acting out scenarios where Pentious actually succeeds in conquering Hell. They also play with Pentious' destructive inventions as if they were toys, sometimes accidentally killing each other. Their defining shared personality trait is that they are extremely loyal to Sir Pentious, with some being outright in love with him while others view him as their father, despite their creator experimenting on them and mistreating them whenever he is angered.
Powers and Abilities[]
Abilities[]
- Large Numbers: The Egg Boiz often come in massive numbers, from dozens and hundreds, and despite their fragility, enough Egg Boiz will be sufficient to overwhelm a target and give the egg demons the chance to capture or eliminate them.
- Piloting Skills: The Egg Boiz are skilled pilots and have manned several of Pentious' aircrafts such as the weapons on his airship and attack helicopter. They also have their own personal small biplanes that were presumably crafted by Sir Pentious himself and are armed with mounted guns and bombs, skillfully flying close to the ground without crashing into the surface. Two Egg Boiz were also shown piloting an attack helicopter presumed to have been invented by Sir Pentious, while two other Egg Boiz manned the helicopter's dual miniguns.
- Weapon Mastery: The Egg Boiz are capable of handling all of Sir Pentious' weaponry with sufficient skill, including the weapon system on his airship, net guns, firearms, laser pistols, and cattle prods.
Weaknesses[]
- Fragility: Despite their skills, large numbers and resistance to elements, the Egg Boiz often die in droves due to their rather fragile shells. Common handheld weapons, such as bats, are capable of smashing them into pieces, and Loona and Vortex killed several Egg Boiz by biting them directly. Several Egg Boiz were also outright melted by Collin, Cletus, and Keenie's angelic crossbows, demonstrating that the Egg Boiz are weak to angelic weapons like other demons. However, some Egg Boiz were durable enough to endure being constricted by Sir Pentious, thrown into each other like bowling balls, and live through Pentious' experiments, albeit mutated.
Relationships[]
Allies[]
Sir Pentious[]
The Egg Boiz are Sir Pentious' minions who he created with the assistance of Baxter. They are sentient eggs who assist the snake demon in his evil endeavors without question. The Egg Boiz are excessively sycophantic and adore everything about their boss, and constantly seek Pentious' approval and favor, although they were at one point seen face-palming in embarrassment when Pentious dabbed. Some Egg Boiz are implied to be attracted to Pentious in a sexual manner, as at one point, one of them tried to grab his ass, and another one commented "I wish he'd shoot ME with his ray gun", as a double entendre, while at least two Egg Boiz view Sir Pentious as their father.
Despite their undying loyalty to Pentious in spite of his failures, he has a tendency of abusing the Egg Boiz and can be very aggressive towards them whenever he gets annoyed or frustrated, often constricting them, insulting them, and throwing them around during his fits of anger. It is also shown that he uses the Egg Boiz as lab rats for his experiments, often resulting in them going through violent transformations. Despite this, it is made clear that Sir Pentious does care about his oblong minions deep down; when he accidentally killed two Egg Boiz when attempting to shoot Angel Dust with his derringer, he shed tears and mourned their losses. Furthermore, he also allows the Egg Boiz some down-time in his lair, and goes out of his way to fix their broken toys. He also seemed to be saddened after Cherri Bomb posted an image of an Egg Boi she had smashed on her Voxtagram account.
In Pentious's last moments, the Egg Boiz stood around him, crying hysterically as one Egg Boi gently took Pentious' hat, telling Pentious that they were proud of him and that he was a great father. In a heartbreaking and comical moment, the Egg Boiz cried hysterically, with some even pulling candles out of nowhere to stand vigil, they comforted their boss as he succumbed to his wounds.
Baxter[]
The Egg Boiz respect Baxter as their co-creator, even calling him "daddy" (much to his chagrin), though they will not shy away from attacking him if he opposes Sir Pentious. Following Pentious' death, the Egg Boiz solemnly gave Baxter the hat of Sir Pentious to confirm his demise and swore their loyalty to Baxter as their new master and "father".
Niffty[]
The Egg Boiz see Niffty as a mother figure, which she happily embraces because she thinks they are cute. Niffty cooks meals for the Egg Boiz, puts them back together when they are shattered, dresses them and calls them her "babies". Following Pentious' death, Niffty fully adopted the Egg Boiz as her and Baxter's "children", something Baxter begrudgingly goes along with.
