Striker

Stryker is a hybrid demon who appeared at the Harvest Moon Festival disguised as a common cowboy and ranch hand, but quickly reveals his true nature as a brutal assassin. Stryker is a hybrid—half demon, also known as an imp, and half reptilian demon. This makes him significantly taller than normal demons, with vertical, snake-like pupils and a ringed tail with a rattle. He is hired by Stella to assassinate her husband, Prince Stolas of Goetia. To carry out assassinations on the high nobility of the Infernal Kingdom, Stryker uses a rare and deadly holy angel weapon capable of permanently destroying demons. Beyond money, Stryker is driven by a deep contempt for the upper classes of Hell and the ruling aristocracy. He believes the nobility unfairly oppresses lesser demons and sincerely despises those he considers weaker than himself. Stryker is a classic "black cowboy" with a cold-blooded, arrogant, and sadistic personality. He is an expert with firearms and bladed weapons, possesses incredible physical strength and agility, and owns his own hellish horse, Bulletproof. He sometimes speaks with a cowboy accent, is arrogant, and disdains authority.

His arrogance vanishes when he's given a task that's beyond his capabilities. Once, they even wanted to kill Satan, but Stryker kind of wanted to live, so he refused. A new client arrived. Stryker looked up, smiling.

"And who did my lady order the murders of the PFLAVVS, ASMODEUS?!"

While Asmodeus is lighter than Satan, he's still no easy target. For Stryker, Asmodeus is a "spoiled" Lord of Sin, almost at the very top of the hellish hierarchy simply by birthright. Stryker sincerely detests the system in which greater demons lord it over lesser ones. Stryker would take this order as recognition of his status as "Hell's finest assassin." Killing the Lord of the Ring of Lust is a chance to forever etched his name in history and prove that greater demons can and should be destroyed. But it's still unexpected.
