Vox is an egotistical, charismatic, and manipulative showman of an Overlord who craves attention.[17] To the public, Vox presents himself as a legitimate businessman of VoxTek Enterprises, giving the facade of a man of the people to the denizens of Hell, when in truth, he is power-hungry, and he manipulates their minds to boost his reputation. He is highly intelligent and technology-savvy, and he is always keeping up with the latest trends and technology.[18] He seems to be able to hide his less desirable side in public and even in private unless he's pushed too far. Despite his egocentric nature, Vox is loyal to the interests of his fellow Vees and seeks to maintain their collective image of power, and as the most level-headed member of the Vees (except where Alastor is concerned), he often acts as the de facto leader.

Driven by an obsessive need for the limelight and jealousy of more popular media figures, he systematically murdered his coworkers (including a radio news anchor and a late-show host) to climb the corporate ladder. • The Cult: He eventually killed his boss (Bob) and seized control of the network, using his rising influence to form an unnamed television-themed cult where he promised a new era of entertainment with himself as a god-like figure. • Death: In the early 1950s, during a cult rally in an abandoned aquarium, a heavy suspended television fell and crushed his head, electrocuting both him and his followers. This accident blinded or stabbed his right eye (leaving him able to hypnotize only with his left eye) and inspired his sinner form's shark-like teeth and chest vents.
