''The'' Bonus Boss, Baal first appeared as a Demon ''Lord'' in ''[[La Pucelle]]''. He [[Took a Level In Badass]] in ''Disgaea 1'' where he became known as Supreme Overlord (or "Tyrant") and was the one who was ultimately {{spoiler|responsible for King Krichevskoy's death; it was propaganda that blamed "black pretzels."}} In this game, he became a Prinny after his first defeat; it was assumed at the time that this was a reincarnation. Baal appears again in ''[[Phantom Brave]]'', this time taking the form of a Mushroom-esque monster, an Eringer/Funguy. It was assumed at the time that he had gone through his reincarnation period as a Prinny, yet retained his incredible strength. More of his true nature became known in ''[[Makai Kingdom]]'', Baal does not die when his body is killed, rather he merely finds other host bodies to inhabit and he is as old as the universe itself.. This became ''worse'' in ''Disgaea 2'' when he started getting more than one body. In ''Disgaea 3'', Baal has more of a storyline, he is stealing traits from various characters for some unfathomable reason. Expect lots and lots of [[Level Grinding]] to be anywhere near capable of fighting Baal, his HP tends to be in the millions.

Notably, Baal was absent from ''[[Zettai Hero Kaizou Keikaku]]''; in fact, [[Bonus Boss|Valv]][[Makai Kingdom|oga's]] description states that he [[Did You Just Scam Cthulhu|conned Baal out of the]] [[Bonus Boss]] position. Nevertheless, Baal's made his appearance as a Bonus Boss in ''Prinny 2'' and has made his mainstream Disgaea return as a DLC Bonus Boss in ''[[Disgaea 4 a Promise Unforgotten (Video Game)|Disgaea 4 a Promise Unforgotten]]''.
