Disgaea: Hour of Darkness/Special Classes

Laharl
Laharl (ラハール, Rahāru) is the son of King Krichevskoy, who plans on becoming overlord after his father's death. He is incredibly arrogant, and always tries to prove that he is the top demon in the Netherworld, often at the expense of his sensitive side. He becomes physically sick when hearing optimistic sayings, especially "Eternal love", and when he sees women with sexy bodies.

Etna
Etna is the leader of the Prinny squad, and one of the few vassals who remain in the Overlord's Castle after King Krichevskoy's death.

Joins: Start

Flonne
Flonne (フロン, Furon) is an Angel Trainee sent on a mission to assassinate Overlord Krichevskoy.

Gordon
Captain Gordon is 37th "Defender of Earth", sent to the Netherworld to stop a potential invasion. Gordon has a great sense of justice, but is dim-witted.

However, his sense of justice and duty constantly motivates him and those around him even in the darkest hours.

Joins: 9-5

Jennifer
Jennifer is Gordon's beautiful sidekick. Jennifer is a rather sexy woman, and she often jokes around in a very flirtatious manner.

D at the age of ten. She is also skilled at martial arts, specialising in kung fu.

Thursday
Thursday is an "All Purpose Robot" created by Jennifer. He is very focused on bringing about justice, even to the point of breaking down.

He does not seem incapable of feeling human emotions, having forged a close bond with Gordon and Jennifer. Thursday usually begins or ends his sentences with 'blip beep'.
