Character Name: Etna
Character Series: Disgaea
Character Age: 1,473. Physically 15.
Background: Disgaea: Hour of Darkness.
Disgaea: Cursed Memories
I’m not really going to be taking too much from the other games she is featured in because they are all either cameos (Disgaea 3, Phantom Brave, Cross Edge, et cetera) or alternate universes (Prinny 1 and 2, Trinity Universe). Obviously being alternate universe versions of Etna means it’s a different character and the cameos are often non-canon, unimportant to her character, and/or end up Flanderizing her personality.
Personality: There once was a young demon working as a low-ranked servant in the castle of the almighty King Krichevskoy, Overlord of the Netherworld. As it was common for demons to abandon their children shortly after birth, this child was an orphan; the only family this child had was a pet which followed her day in and day out and she loved him more than anything else. Being so much younger, weaker, and inept in comparison to the other servants, she became a target of their anger and ridicule.
She was bullied, teased, and made to suffer for being young, being weak, being unattractive, and being unable to rely on herself. Despite the Hell she dealt with through every day, she managed to get through it all because of her pet by her side. That was, until, those demon bullies killed her pet, leaving her entirely alone. Through a stroke of luck, however, the King stumbled across the child sobbing and helped bury her pet and took her in as a close vassal rather than a lowly servant.
At first glance, Etna appears to be selfish, cruel, and vain. That is because she is all of these things! She has to be in the world of demons. Demons are, by nature, chaotic, which inevitably creates a world based around the survival of the fittest. She wears skimpy clothing and adamantly believes herself to be sexy-she is entirely comfortable with her body, save for the jerks that won’t let the fact she’s flat chested drop. She bosses the Prinny Squad around as though they were less than garbage-considering they’re all souls of sinful humans, this isn’t honestly that bad. She takes what she wants when she wants it because, again, she lives in a world where this is the norm.
Etna became the strongest demon in her Netherworld (second to only Overlord Laharl, naturally) because she has these qualities. Her strength comes from her pride, determination, and cruelty. However, she is as strong as she is only because of her harsh childhood and the intervention of the King. She blames her pet’s death on the fact she was too weak, both physically and emotionally; she later blames the King’s death on her being too weak, both physically and emotionally. As a result, she lives her life to become stronger: she trains to become physically stronger; she boasts and wears skimpy clothing to show the confidence she developed after her pet’s passing and with Krichevskoy’s support; she accumulates wealth to avoid ever being the poor homeless servant ever again.
She is still a demon, however, and though the extent of her important characteristics are based on a past of suffering and the compassion of a ruler, she can cruel, selfish, and violent in situations where they are not validated at all, though these are rare in comparison to how most demons behave. She can be childish and selfish, such as when she left Laharl’s vassalage due to him eating her pudding.
Things of great interest to her include the following:
- Pets. In canon, a boy lost his pet and Etna (in a rage that both Laharl and Flonne found uncharacteristic of her) forces Laharl to save it as a test to see whether or not he was an Overlord worth following.
- Bullying and suffering. Anyone experiencing anything that reminds Etna of her childhood would get immediate special treatment from her in the form of protection and support, though she would be unlikely to ever tell anyone why. Her support would involve making those suffering stronger so they can stand on their own legs.
- King Krichevskoy. Though she never quite understood his opinions on Angels, Demons, and Humans coexisting or the concept of love, she adheres to his dream in her own way. If not for herself, she will get involved with Humans and Angels if she thinks the King would have wanted it. Though she did not understand her feelings in the first game, Etna was in love with Krichevskoy; between Hour of Darkness and Cursed Memories, she seems to have accepted these feelings, but knew they would go nowhere, and again became emotionally stronger as a result.
- Breasts. This gets flanderized in many of her cameos and by many players. It’s not so much that Etna has breast envy or flips off the hook when people call her flat, it’s just that she WANTS THEM TO DROP IT. She shows no jealousy towards Jennifer or Rozalin. Although, she would likely develop a rivalry if she met another succubus determined to out-sexy her and happened to have a rack, but this wouldn’t be jealousy. Being confident with her body is an important part of her character.
- Sweets. Her diet consists nearly entirely of snack foods and if you want a quick trip to the grave, just go ahead and eat some of it.
Abilities: Etna has the standard demon repertoire: super human speed, strength, endurance, longevity, healing, some mastery of some magics, and other things. Her special skills involve summoning Prinnies as projectiles, firing lasers, and binding opponents in place while dropping a small sun on their heads.
Sample Entry: Everything in hailbeautyqueen, played in both Memento Eden and Netherworld RPG before both games closed.
