Felony

A Felony is a character improvement feature that only appears in Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories. Felonies are a sign of honor for demons, because laws only exist in the Netherworld to be broken, so by accumulating felonies you can obtain various bonuses.

In Adell Mode this feature is unlocked during its tutorial on episode 3, while in Axel Mode it's unlocked as soon as any character meets the conditions to earn a Felony. In both cases, it remains unlocked even through New Cycles.

How it works

Gaining Felonies

Receiving Felonies after entering the Dark Court.

Characters may be assigned subpoenas from the Post Office NPC by clearing certain conditions(see list below), and accepting one creates a Subpoena item with a Bailiff. Inside the Item World of an item with a Bailiff, a special portal will appear in the floor that matches the level of the Bailiff. Entering said portal summons the character to the Dark Court, where they will receive a certain number of felonies, as well as a physical reward(HL, Mana or items).

A character with maxed out Felonies.

Felonies have a limit of 300 per character, and those with felonies will have a stamp over their portrait denoting the current number. The stamps only show a maximum of 99 felonies(despite the limit of 300), but Dark Hero Days added a section in the status screen that displays the exact value. Note that if a Tower of characters is thrown into the Dark Court, all of them will receive felonies, speeding up the process of obtaining them. Likewise, Magichanged monsters also gain felonies if their wielders enter the portal.

Effects

Felonies grant various effects, whose strength depends on the number of felonies on the character:

• Increases total EXP gained by 1% per felony
• Higher approval rate from Senators at the Dark Assembly
• When using Ascend in the Dark World, raises the level of enemies instead of hurting the Dark Sun
• Some of the endings depend on the felonies on Adell
• Some effects depend on the character with the highest amount of Felonies:
  • Decreases purchase prices and increases selling prices by 1% per Felony(max 33%)
  • Unlocks certain stages(at 33, 66 and 99 felonies)

Losing Felonies

As there are some negative effects to Felonies, it's possible for characters to get their stamp removed. Generic classes can get rid of their felonies by using the option to "Reincarnate as a Prinny" in the Dark Assembly, then Reincarnating back to whichever class they want. Unique characters have the option to "Reincarnate to Atone for their Sins", which works more like regular Reincarnation. In both cases, the character loses their Felony stamp along with all of its effects except for the increased EXP gain.
