[Personality] Valvatorez is a shameless parody of Lelouch from Code Geass. The end.
... Just kidding, he's more complex than that. Though Valvatorez was once a powerful demon known as "The Tyrant", he is actually quite noble, kind, and is mostly un-demonlike in any way. His main schtick is his obsession with keeping promises. No matter how trivial the promises are, Valvatorez will go through extreme lengths to keep them. For example, he had promised one sardine for each of the group of Prinnies he instructed after they completed their training courses, but they end up getting captured before he could give any of them sardines. In order to uphold the promise, he fights his boss and gets into trouble with the Corrupternment... all so that he can give sardines to the Prinnies.
It's his obsession for keeping promises that ends up with him losing pretty much all his power, due to that promise involving him not drinking human blood. However, Valvatorez learns about the health benefits of sardines through records of scientific research in the human world, and firmly believes that he can regain his powers by eating them. He loves sardines to the point of it being yet another obsession, and even goes on long speeches of admiration for these fish. There are many occassions when he will steer a topic to random useless sardine trivia, much to the annoyance of other characters.
Valvatorez is incredibly flamboyant. He always has the tendency to break into rousing speeches, as well as doing unnecessary cape flips and gestures. He takes everything too seriously. Even something as minimal as a typo in the newspaper, in which he decided to invade and take over the Information Bureau just to correct that typo. Also, one of the main runnings gags is how a certain character keeps supposedly dying and coming back, and Valvatorez takes every single one of those "deaths" seriously. To put it blunty, Valvatorez is incredibly stupid.
His stupidity really knows no bounds. He's extremely gullible, such as readily believing Fuka's claim of the Netherworld being just a dream she's having, despite her flawed reasoning and a history spanning more than four-hundred years to prove her wrong. He also puts too much faith in people. For example, when Axel shows after his supposed death to get revenge, Valvatorez quickly jumps to the very unlikely conclusion that he's an impostor trying to tarnish their friendship. He's also easily impressed, which in turn causes him to become distracted from important matters.
In short, despite being a political rebelling demon, Valvatorez is actually a pretty decent guy who believes in the power of friendship and sardines. He may be really strict, but he always means well for everyone.

Please scroll down the Gameplay Style for in-battle abilities.
As for story-related abilities, Valvatorez is a vampire and can gain power by drinking human blood. However, since he made a promise not to, this is irrelevant. Also, he does not burn/sparkle/turn into a daisy/whatever in the sun, nor has any other stereotypical vampire weaknesses. Also, like most Nippon Ichi Software-created characters, he has the ability to break the fourth wall, which comes off mostly as being genre savvy since he takes everything so seriously.

[Sample post]
[First Person]
What do you think of your home world?
It's changed quite drastically since the last I've visited it. Not to mention that it's changed for the worse.
If you could go back home, would you? Why or why not?
[Cape flip.] OF COURSE! If I am not there to whip the Corrupternment into proper shape, then who will? If demons do not do their noble job in frightening humans to behave, the entire universe will be ruined! As a Prinny Instructor, I cannot let such a serious matter be ignored!
If you were to describe yourself in one sentence, what would that be?
[Cape flip!] SARDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE! [Upon witnessing the utterly confused expression of the interviewer, Valvatorez decides to explain:] You see, I have a reason why I have gained incredible strength to make me the rebelling demon I am today. The secret? It's the sardines. Eat them, and you too shall grow stronger.
If someone provoked or attacked you, what would you do?
Hmmhmm... I'd teach them a lesson by fighting back, of course. Violence is the proper etiquette of settling disputes in the Netherworld, after all. As a proper demon, I must enforce the proper customs so that I may spread fear throughout the human population and bring order!
Oh look, there's a double rainbow!
[VALVATOREZ TURNS AROUND WITHOUT HESITATION. Though a bit over-the-top, he is genuinely shocked.] WHAT WHERE?! Double rainbow all the way across the sky?! What does this all mean?!
Hey, did you hear about that giant sale going on? Interested? What would you want to get?
Ooooh, you mean that supermarket down the street from here? I've marked it on my calendar weeks ago, and I've been counting down the days ever since! They're having a 85% discount on sardines, you know, and I quite like the quality of the ones they sell. Not farm-raised and as fresh as they can be! I must say, human world supermarkets are quite the amazing thing...
You find yourself with a cute, little penguin slave. What do you do with it?
A cute... little... penguin slave, you say? Ah, you must mean a Prinny. [CAPE FLIP!] Naturally, I shall see to it that I put every effort of mine into educating the damned soul so that it can become a fine Prinny capable of sublime servitude in order to repent for their sins! Such is my duty as a Prinny Instructor!
What disgusts you the most?
I am glad you asked! [CAPE FLIP!] The only two things I despise are sardine bones that get stuck in teeth... and breaking promises!
[Third Person] Today was not a good day. Of course, Valvatorez had expected it to be a good day when he had awoken this morning, especially when he saw the newspaper ad for a local supermarket's special two-hour sale. An eighty-five percent discount off fresh, top-quality sardines! Since those incredibly cheap fish have become even more cheap, this was a perfect opportunity to stock up and regain his lost power! Perhaps he would become an overpowered, broken-tier party member by the time he returns to Hades thanks to this incredible sardine sale!
However, he did not expect the seafood section of the supermarket to be fortified with a thick wall of elderly housewives. This is terrible... Of course anyone would be enticed with these ridiculously low prices, but Valvatorez needed those fish more than any of these humans! These housewives may need the sardines to cook a meal for their husbands, but Valvatorez's purpose for these sardines were far greater. He had a corrupternment to overthrow, and these fish will give him the power. He must hurry, before they become sold out! Valvatorez gives a mighty flip of his cape as he gives a booming declaration:
"Step aside! Those sardines shall belong to ME!"
A moment of eerie silence passed as the elderly houswives ceased their chattering and squabbling, and stared coldly at the lone vampire. A chill of uneasiness ran down his spine, but backing down was complete and utter poppycock. Even though these housewives greatly outnumbered him and seem to be completely livid, they were still human... He should be able to take them on with out any help. The power of sardines were with him, after all! He will see this to the end! The roar and clamor of battle rang out through the grocery aisles. A true battle royale for the sardines had begun. The one who emerged victorious...
... was not Valvatorez, who has been cast out of the grocery store with incredible force that his defensive stats could not handle. The power of elderly housewives is incredible, indeed.
[Why do you want to play this character in Somarium?] I felt a huge connection with the character when I started playing Disgaea 4. I also wanted to vary things up a bit with my roster by playing a male, as well as a more humorous character.
[Which rule was your favorite and why?] No playercesting. Being playercest is lonely...
[Any questions?] Nope.
