Overview

Disgaea 2 is the sequel to the cult classic Disgaea: Hour of Darkness. It's a Tactical Strategy RPG, which builds upon it's predecessor in every way. However, some would argue that the story does not quite live-up to the original. The one thing that most Players notice and may find odd, is that the Main Character is not a general Warrior-type like in most RPG's, but rather a Monk-type Character. Adell uses fisticuff weapons instead of wielding a sword. The one thing to most be said about Disgaea 2 and the whole Franchise, in general, is it's staggering amount of replayability and how far the Player can push the game's numbers. Getting to Level 9999 is the goal of many Disgaea enthusiasts.

Plot

The Overlord, Zenon, curse the lands of Veldime many years ago, turning all of it's inhabitants from Humans to Demons... all that is, except for one. This lone young man is named Adell. Adell has vowed to destroy Zenon and undo the curse, so that it may turn his family back to their former Human selves. Adell and his "Mom", a crazy Witch Summoner Demon Lady, attempt to summon Zenon to their Village so that Adell can finish him off the easy way. Unfortunately the experiment may have failed, as they summon instead, what they think, is Overlord Zenon's Daughter instead. Her name is Rozalin, and she proudly states that she is in-fact "Overlord Zenon's only Daughter." Adell then decides to go on a Quest to bring her back to her father and kill him at the same time, because, "that's just his style."
