Heroes would be less likely to follow him than Tagg, I think he did get outed after he died.
To say the least, Billions, possibly trillions of souls were being poured into Hell during Golden Morning all over the place. There are many people who would try to take advantage of the chaos to try to gain an advantage. Combined with the rather laissez-faire attitude of the current Hell wide "administration" it isn't too much of a stretch to say that some would try to use the chaos to try to gain some leverage against the head honchos of Hell. Not that it would have helped, but these new comers have never experienced the wrath of Satan so it's hardly their fault that they have no idea what they are going up against.
Last I checked, Director Calvert was Coil, though in his defense, his reveal came just a little before Echidna arrived so the reveal that a Director was actually a super villain would be small potatoes compared to the leaders of the Protectorate were literally the Illuminati Mark 0.5 who were releasing monster capes all over the place and having infiltrated the entire Protectorate with their spies and agents. One villainous director ain't going to be much news compared to that.
Ah I think I got confused between Tagg and Calvert.
Taylor is mostly drawing from her Earthly experience in this. Despite intellectually knowing that demons have an increased constitution and regeneration, it can be hard to fully proccess all the things that would affect in society or even just on a personal level. Especially since Taylor has never been a regenerating brute before.
While I agree with you on principle, you also gotta take into account that this is hell. People shank each other here all the time anyway, freely peddling drugs doesn't impact overall violence in any noticeable manner. Also, another thing to keep in mind is nobody gives a fuck. So what if some schmucks get themselves addicted and go on to fuck up some other schmucks? Business as usual, really.
Or it was Tagg.Kidnapping Charlie with the help of 'heroes'... well, guess Coil won't be a problem in the story since he already won a Darwin award.
She'll have to work with Charlie than.
She doesn't have her swarm yet, her scary factor dropped at 90% of what it once was.... If it return she'll teach Hell that arachnophobia is a myth and that being scared of bugs is perfectly nornal.
Much of Taylor's creepiness from her human life was the fact that she didn't look at you when she talked to you and was unnaturally still due to focusing on using her bugs to scope everything out and not really caring about looking at who she was speaking to because she could make out people with her bugs.
Kinda also helps that she has the ability to percieve magic with her antennae along with the human mind perceiving magic as similar to parahuman powers, allowing for easier use.
Taylor may have been Overlord level but she was never an Overlord in that since she held no territory and was more like Alastor. Here however I intend for her to actually become a proper Overlord as is her due.
When a purge happens with Skitter around it is likely to happen what with those on the streets needing saved and how if they get taken out thing go to shit even more than before. Taylor just doesn't know that yet since ot hasn't been covered.
Or possibly get the population down far enough that no angels show up... perhaps through... colonisation?
