Disgaea: Hour of Darkness/Monster Classes

Monsters are characters that you will face on every single map of the game. Ranging from the lowliest Spirit to the mightiest Dragon, monsters are a very special edition to any team. They are very expensive when you are first trying to create them, but the more of them you defeat the cheaper they become.

Faerie
Fairies are demons that even appear in the Human world. In the Netherworld their magic powers get dispersed, so they wear a special cape to prevent it. When they get angry, they swallow their enemy with its huge mouth. Unlike other demons, fairies have strong bonds within their species.

Spirit
Spirits are the most mysterious type of demons in the Netherworld. Demon scholars now believe that they are spirits that failed to become prinnies, and now exist in the form of wandering ghosts. They are known to be the most common type of monster, according to the last Netherworld Census.

Treant
Treants live throughout the Netherworld. Descendants of the Millennium Tree that grew its own will. They look like plants but they are carnivorous and capture their prey by paralyzing it with poison gas. They can live for a million years, but depending on the region, they can easily die.

Winged
Little is known about them, other than their natural habitat. They travel in groups but once battle begins, they'll attack anyone. Because of this, they are believed to have little bond between their kind. Thanks to their wings, they have some of the best movement in the Netherworld.

Dark Knight
Unlike ordinary demons, Dark Knights have a strong sense of chivalry and prefer a fair fight. Very few demons in the Netherworld can compete against the Dark Knights. In fact, with their sword skills, they can slay a dragon with a single slash.

Lantern
Their pumpkin head is a dead give away. It is said that they are pumpkins that turned into demons. They may look funny, but they are ruthless killers. Experts with short swords and close combat, but they are more popular for their healthy, protein-filled bodies, making them the target of hungry demonic health nuts.

Undead
They are categorized as a species, but since they are monsters that have come back to life, they aren't technically a species. Because of their smell, they're generally hated, but the do have a cult following. Most undead are weak, but those of the King variety are known to be as strong as an overlord.

Dragon
The most powerful clan of monsters, dragons are known throughout Celestia and the Human World. However, a lot of research has been done on dragons for the purpose of summoning and controlling them in battle. Low ranking dragons are often summoned by angels and humans to help out in a pinch.

Beast
Beasts have a lion's body, a monkey's face, a scorpion's tail, and bat wings. They are extremely proud about being the top of the Netherworld food chain. It is very rare to find any beast serving another demon. There's nothing they love more than the thrill of the chase.

Prinny
Handle your prinnies with care, because they explode if your throw them. Prinnies aren't technically demons. They are irresponsible, but they work for the Overlord to pay for their sins, but that is the real joke. They don't do their jobs well, so they'll be stuck in the Netherworld for a very long time.
