Adell is the hero in the video game Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories.
He was voiced by Hikaru Midorikawa in the Japanese version, and by Shiloh Strong in the English version.
Origin[]
Adell is a demon living in the world of Veldime. Adell is thought to be the only human remaining in this world, as everyone else was turned into demons by Overlord Xenon's curse. Adell decides to break this curse and turn everyone back to normal.
Personality[]
Adell is hot-blooded and likes to stick to his ideals, always placing an emphasis on fighting fair and keeping his promises. He is kind, understanding, and trusting to a fault even when it might be against his best interest. This is emphasized when interacting with demons like Rozalin, who she herself describes as a "natural enemy", but Adell sticks to his promise to protect her. Because of this, sometimes his trusting nature can be mistaken as stupid or naive, but this is inaccurate. Adell is fully aware of how risky his actions can be, but believes in himself and others so stubbornly that he is willing to stay by his ideals anyways.
Many of his personality had been informed by his circumstances while growing up. Since he had to witness everyone in his life slowly transform into more demonic and cruel versions of themselves, it was probably necessary for him to become such a principled person in tandem. His disgust for lies was also informed by being “lied to" by his birth parents, who promised in a letter to return after leaving him but never came back. Feeling betrayed and hurt by this, he wanted no one else to experience that same pain and put it onto himself to always be honest. Both of these experiences made him pretty lonely growing up, where he's described as having "no friends" before meeting people like Rozalin, Tink, and Yukimaru.
Contrastingly, he loves his adopted family. Even as they slowly lose their memories and they don’t treat him the kindest, he still stays by their side and looks for a cure to their curse anyways. The struggles they went through made him a loyal and understanding person through and through, which undeniably helped him through his journey looking for Lord Zenon.
Overall, Adell is portrayed as a reliable and honest person who occasionally has moments of stubborn and hot-bloodedness. His eagerness for fighting has earned him the nickname “battle maniac”, but he prefers to think of himself as a simple and honest individual who just wants to protect his family. However, by the end of his journey, it’s safe to say that also includes his newfound friends and girlfriend, Rozalin.
