Character
Personality
Lilith is cunning, sneaky, and somewhat snobbish, making her in similar in personality to Cleo de Nile. However, she is also capable of showing genuine concern when trouble brews. When she found out Holt was going to get the Trick-or-Treatment, she had a look of surprise on her face and relented, informing the normies at the party that she thought monsters were evil.
Appearance
Lilith has dirty blonde hair that is pulled back in an apparent low ponytail. She has teal eyes and has a beauty mark near the upper right corner of her lip. Her attire is a resemblance to her uncle's, with a leopard print button-up top, greenish gold leggings, and black, high-heeled boots that rise right above her knees. Lilith also wears a dark brown belt, a red sash that is shown to have bullets in the pockets, and a matching choker. At some points, she wears a monocle over her left eye, also reminiscent of her uncle.
Relationships
Family
The famous and notorious Van Hellscream is Lilith's uncle.
Friends
Lilith's closest allies are her goons, who are unwaveringly loyal to her.
Since the events of "Ghouls Rule", Lilith found her monster counterpart in Cleo de Nile, who, like her, struggles to live up to family expectations of leadership, is marginally willing to use others to accomplish her goals, and has a sense for the finest of fashion. The moment they met, they recognized they were kindred spirits despite being the leading figures in their respective groups' growing hostility towards each other. With a bit of pushing by Cleo's friends, Lilith and Cleo managed to use their newfound friendship to establish peace.
Appearances
In "Ghouls Rule", Lilith was the ones who ordered to vandalize and vandalized Monster High twice and their own school twice plus one attempt, all five times aided by her goons. The attacks on Monster High were meant to provoke the monsters, while the attacks on their own school were meant to make the monsters look bad.
