Prinny Bios:

May 10, 2009 00:00

Prinny Squad:
The prinny sqauad is a trio of Original Characters based off of Nippon Ichi Software's game canon. Made up of Hero Prinny, Fake Laharl, and Princess Lovely (Or Hero, Fake, and Lovely for short)they pilot the "legendary" Pringer X in the Super Robot Wars: Unlimited Generation game. The three pilots are rather lackluster to begin with, stuck in a single lackluster "joke" unit with conflicting skills and low stats. However, if the player takes the time to use them and level them up, they experience explosive stat growth. If their levels are high enough by the mission "Farewell, Pringer X", then rather than confine
them to pilot-only missions, the player will get the Pringer Z, a much more powerful version of Pringer X.
As a pilot unit, the Prinny Squad can do the team attack, "Prinny assault" when next to Kurtis.

Individual profiles:

Hero Prinny:

With a design straight from "Prinny! Can I Really be the Hero?", Hero wears the mystical Red Muffler, which flaps dynamically in the wind, even when wind isn't present. It is through this scarf that Hero doesn't explode like a regular prinny would. Hero's personality is based one part on Gurren Lagann's Kamina, one part Getter
Robo Armageddon's Ryouma, and one part SRW Original Ryuusei Date. Badass otaku that doesn't afraid of anything and makes the impossible work through the power of sheer hot blood and knowing anime stereotypes. This is a Prinny who literally went through hell and back for the sake of making a dessert. The only thing that can really faze him is Etna. Otherwise, he'll just keep pushing forward, even when there's nothing ahead but a brick wall. Or a cliff. Or a sun.

Spirits: Spirit(+10 will), Daunt(-10 will to foe), Valor(x2 damage), Accel(+3 move), Zeal (extra turn), Love (Adds all bonuses)
He starts with Spirit and Daunt, and won't gain Zeal and Miracle until rediculously late.
Innate abilities: Prevail, Chain Attack

Pilot combat:
Hero as an individual unit is not strong at all. He's stuck on the ground, and has odd range with his moves.
His speed is higher than the other two, and his accuracy is good. This makes him akin to a fighter plane.

Combo, dood!@ Range 1
Rapid slashing with his knives. Melee.
Air Slash, dood!@ Range 2-3
Hero jumps, sending shockwaves from his knives. Ranged.
Hip drop, dood! Range 1
Hero jumps and comes flying down on an enemy head, repeatedly. Melee.
Prinny Bomb Range 1-2
Hero pulls a bomb from his pouch and throws it. Has 4 ammo, needs 105 will. Ranged.
Pringer Beam Range 1, MAP
Hero hits everyone around him with the finishing move of Pringer X, small scale style.
Prinny Raid! Range 2-6
Hero throws Fake or Lovely at an enemy, causing a massive explosion. This incapacitates the throwee for the rest of the map. Ranged.
Prinny Rush!@ Range 1-3
Hero, Fake, and Lovely pull a 3-man team attack straight from Disgaea. Melee.
Prinny Assault!@ Range 1-4
Hero, Fake, Lovely and Kurtis pull a devastating combo attack on one foe. Melee.

Fake Laharl:

As his name states, he's a fake version of Prinny Laharl. When Etna "accidentally" killed the Prince at the beginning of Disgaea 1's Etna Mode, she superglued antennae onto a random prinny, claiming to all demons that he was, in fact, Laharl. Because of this, Fake has seen a lot more combat than most prinnies, and (thanks mostly to the demons Etna controlled) survived long enough to escape. Ironically, when Laharl himself became a prinny, he ended up looking exactly like his fake. Fake's personality is taken from Shinji Ikari (Evangelion), Kira
Yamato (Gundam SEED), and a bit of One Piece's Usopp: Despite being the strongest of the Prinny Squad, he's a bit scared of actual fights, and prefers to use his brain over his abilities. He's also the most intelligent.

Spirits: Self-Destruct (blow self up), Scan (view enemy info), Snipe (Range +2), Fury (Ignore barriers), Sense (Strike + Alert), Hope (+50 SP to ally)
Like Hero, he starts with his first two skills and doesn't get his last two until a relatively high level.
Innate abilities: None

Pilot Combat:
Fake differs from the rest of his team in that his stats start at fairly decent. They don't gain as much with levels
as his team, though he'll remain consistantly stronger than them until the mid 30s. His average stats make him akin to a gespenst.

Combo@ Range 1
Fake slices a foe up with his knives. Melee.
Prinny Barrage Range 4
Fake attacks with wind slashes from his knives. Ranged.
Prinny Dance Range 1
A mystical dance distorts a foe with accuracy down, attack down, and movement down. Minimal ranged damage.
Prinny Bomb Range 1-2
Fake pulls a bomb from his pouch and throws it. Has 4 ammo, needs 105 will. Ranged.
Pringer Beam Range 1, MAP
Fake hits everyone around him with the finishing move of Pringer X, small scale style.
Prinny Rush!@ Range 1-3
Hero, Fake, and Lovely pull a 3-man team attack straight from Disgaea. Melee.
Prinny Assault!@ Range 1-4
Hero, Fake, Lovely and Kurtis pull a devastating combo attack on one foe. Melee.

Princess Lovely:
You know that one spoiled rich girl who everyone used to pretend to love but secretly hated? Yep, that's Lovely. Her soul jacked the body of Laharl's dead mother once she had passed on to her next life, and so she inherited all of the love and kindness the demons of the netherworld had had for the "Big Sis Prinny". Etna wasn't fooled at
all, though, and put the spoiled girl to work. Her personality is a mix of Anemone (Eureka Seven), Chiko (Diebuster), Princess Shine (SRW OG), Reiko Komori(Gaogaigar) and Chibiusa/Rini (Sailor Moon). This mix of minor characters has also given her an inferioity complex, and she always trys to grab the spotlight, becoming infuriated at being ignored. Aside from having an abnormal amount of mana for a prinny, Lovely brings a touch of magic to the prinny squad. She wants a haro of her very own, and is obsessed with cute things and cute boys. She has a huge stalker crush on Kurtis.

Spirits: Gain (gain bonus exp), Trust (heal 2000 hp), Luck (Gain bonus money), Enable (Unit gets bonus turn), Renew (Unit ammo and energy restored), Miracle (Love on ally)
While Lovely gets her first three spirits relatively quickly, her last three come extremely late, getting miracle well after Hero and Fake have gotten their last spirit.
Innate: Skill (gain extra PP on kill), Fortune (gain extra money on kill)

Pilot Combat:
On foot, Lovely dons a sailor suit and equips a staff, which effectively gives her magic a good power boost.
Her Ranged stat is pretty good, but the rest of her stats are lackluster. This makes her a low-HP battleship.

Heal@ Range 1-2
It doesn't do damage, but heals allies.
Force@ Range 1

Pringer X:
Born of space junk and EDF debris from their failed assault on the Netherworld, Pringer X was created as a beacon of hope for all Prinnykind, using the very latest in Prinny Technology (Rubber bands, super glue, duck tape, and the like.) Its pilots were fin-selected for their courage, intelligence, and to get rid of that bitch once and for all charm. Lastly, its outer shell was made of many prinnies, merging their souls and bodies into one force. This, of course, resulted in an unstable failure of an exploding deathtrap known as the Pringer X.

Pringer X has neither the armor to take hits nor the agility to dodge. What it does have, is a battleship-sized HP stat to handle a few hits. It's restricted to the ground, and while it can move through water, it'll take damage if it waits a turn in it due to leaks.

Pringer Spiral Plasma Chop!@ Range 1
By channeling plasma into the fins, they probably won't explode? Best on airborne enemies. Melee.

Pringer Spinning Drill Attack!@ Range 1
Rapid spinning and ramming the target almost leaves a scratch. Best on underwater enemies. Melee.
Pringer Missile Range 2-5
Fires way too many dumb-fire missiles from the chest pouch. Has 10 shots. Inaccurate. Ranged.

Pringer Beam Range 1-3
A beam of pink energy causes a pink explosion that deals massive damage. 1 ammo, shared with MAP. Ranged.
Prinny Explosion@ Range 1
A kamikazee explosion. This attack may trigger on its own.

Pringer Z:
The Legendary Pringer Z is a secret unit gotten by having a certain combined level total amongst the Prinny Squad. In their darkest hour, the Red Moon itself generated this mecha from the souls of sinful mechabeasts and other semisentient evil mecha. Pringer Z itself is a vast improvement over Pringer X, able to dodge and tank like a Hybrid mecha, while retaining Battleship HP. Powered by its pilot's mana, rage, and the souls of the sinful collected around it, Pringer Z may just be the hope of all Prinnykind. It still explodes from a violent impact, though. (or a critical hit)

Mech Abilities: Sword Parry(guard some attacks), Sin harvest(Gain 30 EN per enemy killed), Safety Pod(Pilots remain on battlefield after destruction), Phantom Z (Pringer Z's safety pod can be picked up by any unit, friendly or otherwise, and the unit will be able to use the Pringer Beam. The pilots will be unavailable to use their spirit commands if the pod is picked up.)
If the pod is attacked, Pringer Z's repair cost and downtime will triple.

A secret attack that has yet to be revealed.

There are talks, still, of a mecha beyond Pringer Z...Pringer 3! But for now, all they are are rumors.
