* Etna, Raspberyl, Hanako, Post-La Pucelle Priere (possibly Pram) : Succubi.
* Rozalin, Salome: Vampires.
* Kyoko, Yukimaru: Ninja class, Asuka: Samurai (hur dur)
* Taro is a male holstaurus! Fridge Logic at its best here.
* Flonne will become a full-regalia Angel class, duh, but I think she would end up looking like Cornet's mom, Cherie.
* Zetta: Majin.
* Champloo: Makai Chef.
* Vyers, Laharl, Adell, Axel, Mao: Incubi, then.
* Don't forget Real Form Tink.

* Most of those are doubtful if you ask me. Adell might be able to pass for an Incubus, but for the rest, just think about this: Adult Succubi are ridiculously curvy, so logically, an adult Incubus would probably have a muscular build, but even Axel looks pretty scrawny. My theory for Laharl and Vyers at least, is that they represent the classic idea of the Devil. Laharl's antennae do look kind of like horns in the right position.
* According to the in-game description, no one know what a Succubus looks like because their physical forms are tied to what is deemed as most attractive. That being said, let's score our incubi candidates:
* Vyers: managed to score with a human witch, fathered a son with said witch, and looks handsome to boot. Myth confirmed, dood.
* Laharl: son of above, which would have automatically qualified him if not for having numbed his heart to love due to the grief of losing his mother.
* Adell: It probably doesn't matter if he had incubus blood, he turned the switch off a long time ago and it's not going to come back on because it has probably atrophied from lack of use. Busted.
* Wouldn't be so sure of that. Remember how he's able to charm Yukimaru into joining his cause (and talk her out of suicide in the process) with pretty much no effort. He may claim to not like girls, but girls seem to like him just fine.
* Axel: Evidence is circumstantial, but considering his charm and that his Idiot Ball behaviour might be intentional, this is pretty plausible. Not to mention to lightning bolt brows can't be natural in anyway. Axel being an incubus may also explain his director's passion for his work.
* Mao: He has hardly any idea how love works, much less what it is. As a matter of fact, his passion for the scientific method and his ability to extrude malice into a physical form means that this myth is waaaaay busted.
* Champloo: If anything, food is a good way to generate emotions...
* Look at tier five. I highly doubt there is any accuracy in the above as none of those characters resemble this monster class.
* Anything to do with tiers are titles and simply have nothing to do with species. The species is called Winged.
* Then Myao would grow up to be a Nekomata! Gao is already a clear werewolf and Crowdia a pretty good looking tengu.
* Marjoly: Old, blonde, in-denial Prism Mage?
* Gordon, Jennifer, early-game Kurtis, post-game Almaz, Sapphire, Marona, all Prism Rangers (what? At least Red is playable): puny humans. Ahem.
* With the characters of Disgaea 4 specifically pointing out that they're vampires and werewolves, as opposed to JUST demons, it seems to me that before this, most demons were simply "demons" without a specific species attached.
* Demons without a specific species are probably the Netherworld equivalent to humans. That's how you get all the human-like fighters and archers and the like. They're "demons", they have pointed ears and live for several thousand years, but they don't have anything particularly special about them after that.
* This probably ties into the long-running background plot point that humans, demons, and angels might be Not So Different
* I always assumed that the humanoid demons were the result of succubi trips to the human world and are really half demons.
