'''Prinnies'''

Not actually a character per se, but still deserving of mention. Prinnies are exploding demon penguins who talk like [[Main/Surfer Dudes|Surfer Doods]] which serve as the primary labor force of the Netherworld (Though they exist in Celestia as well and are treated better there). Etna keeps a squadron of Prinnies with her at all times. In fandom, they have been upheld by fans as the unofficial mascots of the franchise, a position since adopted by the developers, [[Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero?|leading to their own spinoff game]]. All Prinnies contain the souls of sinners and criminals and, as such, are designated by the [[Powers That Be]] as the [[Butt Monkey|Butt Monkeys]]s of the universe.
 
Tropes associated with prinnies:
Line 22:
* [[Everything's Better with Penguins]]: The shape of their "suits".
* [[Fastball Special]]: They blow up upon impact (but can easily get better).
* [[Immortal Life Is Cheap]]: Since "reviving" a prinny involves little more than stuffing them into a new prinny suit, it's impossibly cheap (1 HL) to bring back even the strongest prinny -- whichprinny—which is partly why their bosses have no issue with abusing them to their hearts content.
* [[Killer Rabbit]]: They're certainly not the most powerful monsters in the game, but like all Disgaea characters you can level/equip/reincarnate one into a wrecking machine. Watching an adorable penguin slice monstrous demons to ribbons is always good for a laugh.
* [[Made of Explodium]]: Their human souls, combined with cheap crafted bodies, means Prinnies are highly unstable. Sufficiently jarring impacts cause them to explode. On the downside, this means you can't toss them around the grid for fine unit positioning, which is normally a useful tactic. On the upside, [[Video Game Cruelty Potential|they make great impromptu weapons!]]
