Mildred "Millie" Knolastname, is one of the three tritagonists (alongside her husband Moxxie and Loona Buckzo) in the adult animated black comedy/romantic drama web series Helluva Boss.
She is an assassin for I.M.P, Blitzo's best friend (alongside Moxxie), and Moxxie's lovely wife and is arguably the most lethal and bloodthirsty out of the main cast.
She was voiced by Erica Lindbeck in the pilot, who would go on to voice Loona in the series proper, and also voices Sumire Kakei in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations, Black Cat in Marvel's Spider-Man, Farnese in Berserk, Jericho in The Seven Deadly Sins, and Lady Nagant in My Hero Academia, and is voiced by Vivian Nixon in the series proper.
Biography[]
Past[]
Millie was born to imp farmers Lin and Joe, presumably on their farm, in the Wrath ring where she would be raised by them. She had numerous siblings, and got a reputation for being even more violent than denizens of the ring, amassing a head count so large during “The Pain Games” her mother forbid her from participating. Sometime before the events of Helluva Boss, she dated a twisted gangster from the Greed Ring known as Chazwick Thurman; how this affair ended is not stated, but to this day, simply just the sight of him is enough to cause her to collapse into a near-bestial rage.
Some time later[1], after Blitzo and Moxxie had met, she started working as a legbreaker. Failing to make much money (and spending what she had on cheap booze) she became cynical and depressed, resigned to the fact she'd never be anything more than a common thug. Then, by coincidence, she "stole" a hit job that Blitzo had taken. He confronted her at a seedy bar, hoping to convince her to join his group, but believing he had been hired by someone to kill her (and likely drunk), she lashed out at him, starting a fight that wrecked the bar. Eventually, she threw a knife at him that drew blood on his cheek, without him even slightly reacting. Impressed by his resilience and attitude, she decided to at least consider his offer.
Upon joining I.M.P. and realizing her potential was being recognized, Millie started to become more social, eventually losing her cynical attitude and gaining a positive outlook. She started dating Moxxie, and the two would eventually fall in love, proceeding to get married shortly before the events of the show.
Helluva Boss[]
Millie is the loving wife of Moxxie, and fellow member of I.M.P. She has a sweet and caring personality, but is also a ruthless and sadistic killer who enjoys her occupation as an assassin for hire. Millie also seems to enjoy being part of her boss, Blitzo’s, “family" and tries to keep the peace between him and Moxxie (though it is also suggested she actually enjoys Blitzo’s voyeuristic behavior).
Millie is seen to accompany Moxxie wherever he goes. She will defend him against any attack (be it Loona or even an insulting child). Unlike Moxxie, she is much more willing to just go along with anything Blitzo wants and is most happy when out in the field committing murder.
At the end of season 2[2] she is revealed to be pregnant with Moxxie's child.
Personality[]
| “ | Millie is a good woman, a better woman than I deserve, and there's nothing that scares me more than hurting her. | „ |
| ~ Moxxie describes Millie's personality to Crimson. |
Millie is shown to have a sweet, caring personality for those she loves like Moxxie and her parents. Outside of this circle, however, she can act unapologetically sadistic and brutal to others, especially if those in the circle have been hurt by them. This is shown through multiple encounters in the series, with Millie’s hatred for her ex, Chazwick Thurman, almost causing her to kill the shark once she learns that he also had a relationship with and hurt Moxxie by abandoning him.
Should Moxxie be hurt or taken hostage, Millie's infernal nature comes to the surface in a bout of unholy rage that, as Blitzo tells Moxxie (in "Truth Seekers"), would take a "roided-up hippo" to stop, making this claim after Millie has already brutally slaughtered half the security in a government facility in her attempts to find and free the both of them. A less violent, but considerably more reckless maneuver committed by Millie, was hitting a beloved employ of the Deadly Sin of Lust over the head with a guitar for antagonizing her husband. She's also shown to be affable to others, waving politely at Verosika's crew despite their previous animosity, and is shown to have great tolerance for Blitzo's antics, seeing as he is the one who turned her life around. As such, she has shown to be a good friend to him, begrudgingly following him on his "ghost-busting" adventure and consoling him when he believes nobody truly loves him.
Quotes[]

We know you aren't makin' as much anymore since y'all went "freelance". Millie: Freelance pays fine, ma! We're doin' FIIINE! ...It's fine. |

Trivia[]
- Millie is an imp, and as such a Hellborn demon to Hell, originating from the Wrath Ring.
- Due to being imps, Moxxie, Millie and Blitzo are seen as the lowest of Hell's citizenry, which may further explain their drive for fame and wealth. Millie’s penchant for entrepreneurship exacerbates this.
- Viv had stated that she would change Millie's voice actor once the actual series premieres but would still keep her previous voice actor, Erica Lindbeck, to voice Loona. Later, actress and dancer Vivian Nixon, was hired to voice Millie.
- There is a large poster of Moxxie and Millie's wedding photo in I.M.P.’s meeting room. In it, Millie is wearing a long strapless black dress and has wild hair that goes down past her hips, while Moxxie is wearing a white suit. It appears Blitzo has drawn over the photo in red marker to draw himself hugging them. This same photo seems to be in their living room, although only the bottom half can be seen and it doesn't have Blitzo's graffiti.
- In Vivziepop's 2019 short Holidaze, Millie appears as an ornament on a Christmas Tree. There is a tree carved with the initials "M+M →B←" in a heart that alludes to her and Moxxie (and by extension Blitzo).
- While Millie seems to tolerate Blitzo's intrusions, she is not shown to be comfortable with other men flirting, as the game attendant pushing Moxxie away and attempting to flirt with her noticeably upset her.
- Millle mentioned in "Loo Loo Land", her parents used to take her and her siblings to Loo Loo Land when they could manage it financially.
- Millie breaks the fourth wall in "Spring Broken", where she (along with the whole IMP crew) all collectively look in disapproval at the camera in reference to the internet’s artistic portfolios concerning Loona.
- She was the star of the first Helluva Boss short, "Hell's Belles", a five minute story where she entertained her visiting sister, the only appearance by another member of the main cast being a cameo by Moxxie.
- Ironically, while Millie is clearly the most dangerous member of the cast when angry, she is also the most lucid and reasonable member when she isn't.
- In the episode "Ghostf**kers", Millie is also the only member of I.M.P. who understood her boss's mistakes, although she is unaware that how Blitzo forgave Fizz for his accident as a first target of aplologizes since after defeating Crimson and his mafia (except Striker) since the events of the episode "Oops".
