@Introduction: @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Welcome to Radiata Stories, Tri-Aces next big RPG.
As the game starts you will be introduced to Jack Russell (yes, like
the dog), a young man training to be a knight. After a few cut scenes
you will receive your father's weapon, unfortunately you can't use it
for a while.
You will arrive at Radiata castle where you must partake in a small
tournament to join the Knights. You will soon have to fight Ridley,
who will beat you senselessly. You stand no chance of winning at this
point, so don't using items is pointless. Regardless, due to your
father's renown they will let you be a knight as well. After another
cut scene you will receive Trainee's Wear and the Royal Knight Charter.
You now have control over your character. Here are some controls
R1 - Map, push up/down to scroll to different levels.
L1 - Game Clock
Start - Pause
Triangle - Status Screen
Circle - Exit status screen/map screen or interact with person/object
X- Kick, you can kick objects for items... also used for accepting
selections
Kick the bed for Analysis ball and the desk for a cure drop. Then save
and leave the room.
Push R1 to look at the map and scroll up/down until you see a blue
circle on the third floor that is your destination so keep that in
mind. You can kick the guard next to your room for 1D (money) each
time.
Head west through the door to the left of your room and enter the first
door your come to. You should be in a storeroom, kick the desk for a
cure needle and the shelf for an herb extract. Go back to your room
and enter the door east of it and kick the chairs for a cure drop.
Then leave the room and head east until you get to a guard and several
doors, take the northern door and enter the first door you. Kick the
lockers in the back for a Knight Edge and then equip it as your weapon.
Now head back to the spiral staircase you saw earlier and head to the
door at the top.
You are now on the second floor, go into the first door and kick around
for holy water and Ridley's theme, the door after that is the item
shop. Kick the statue for 5D. Then leave and head up the small
staircase.
Now you're on the third floor, go left and enter the first room and
find a cure drop. The second room has 15D and Ganz's theme. Then head
east into the next section and enter the door to meet with Ganz and get
your first mission and some training. It is basically a battle
tutorial, it should be self-explanatory. Afterwards you will start on
your mission, and a very strange priest will join you.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@Mission 1: @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Cross the bridge and use the save point. Creatures you can battle
appear on your map, so just walk into them if you wish to fight and
gain some experience (a good idea.)
Head west into the next area and kick the rocks for an empty bottle,
there will be a merchant at the cross roads you can buy simple supplies
from... or you can kick him until he fights you. Head south to find a
house, kick the boxes to get a mint drop. Then head back the merchant
and head west to come to a village.
Go around to the back and get the chest with the evasion berry. Then
hit the boxes on the west to get an herb extract and then head west
again. Continue down the road and eventually you'll get to the dwarf
city; there really is no other path to take, as Ganz will prevent you
from going down any other road.
You will eventually be in Earth Valley. I recommend upgrading
equipment/weapons now; both of the respective shops are on the top
floor with appropriately labeled signs. I would probably pick up an
Aqua Blade for Jack at the very least. You can get the earth valley
(song) on the bottom floor dormitory room 102 by kicking the safe; the
building is the door at the very bottom floor on the east side. The
record is used fore recruiting a character later. After your done
exploring, head into the big golden building.
After the cut scene the inn will now have a save point in the back
room, so I would take advantage of it. Talk to Ganz twice and then
Ridley, he should mention something about the bar needing help, so go
down to the next floor and find it, then talk to the bartender and
accept his task. Leave the bar and enter again in the morning to find
the culprits, 3 goblins.
Then go to the room and rest until Ganz says the cart is loaded, which
will automatically start the journey back. Just stay with the cart and
it should be easy, since he takes a shortcut back. But you meet up
with the goblin trio again, and Clive proves to be invaluable
(/sarcasm.) You will get into a fight with the goblin trio who uses a
formation against you for the first time; all 3 goblins will attack
anyone caught in the shaded area for more than a second. You can break
up their formation by killing one of them, so concentrate your fire on
the one Ganz will tell you to attack, so everyone will work on him at
the same time. Continue on and it shouldn't be too long before you are
back to the castle. If your interested in how your progress should be,
my party was level 8 to 9 by the time we got back to the castle.
Exit the large room and enter the passageway to your left... it's the
ladies room, and you get an... interesting scene. In the Men's room
you can find holy water... I don't even want to know. Ganz won't let
you explore, just go to the meeting area on the fourth floor.
Afterwards, you'll automatically be back in your room.
Now go west until you reach a tower with stairs going up and down, head
to the very bottom and down the latter and then go into the northeast
area and run past the enemies (since you are alone) and into the next
area that has a chest with a strength berry, this is a permanent +2 to
strength. Then go to B1 (your floor) and use the stairs to the east to
go up one floor.
Head east and into the next area, which should be the main hallway.
Head east and enter the first DOOR and search the room for a flee ball
and 50D. Then head out and use the small staircase going up. Head
left and enter the door marked with the knife and fork and search the
plant for a cure drop. Now look on your map and head for the large E,
that is the elevator; go there now. By the entrance to the elevator is
a bench, kick it for a mint drop. Then use the elevator to ascend to
the third floor.
Head down the hall until you come to a door with a syringe on it, head
inside to grab an herb extract from the shelf unit. Now go to the
fourth floor by whatever means you wish to use and open the map and go
to the study and search around for a mint drop and herb extract. Then
go into the next room (Cross's) and search the armor for cooling spray.
Now head to the first floor and go down the small staircase to find a
different section of the B1 floor. Search the first room for an herb
extract and the room at the end for an analysis ball. That is
everything I could find in the castle at this point in the game, so
return to your room and save and rest.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@Mission 2: @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@
When you wake up you should automatically be in a cut scene, if that
just rest until you see it.
Continue along the path to you reach a junction, head north and follow
the path all the way to a large tree stump. Kick the rocks in front of
it for celestial nectar, then head back to the junction and head west.
You should soon arrive at Fort Helencia and get another cut scene. As
soon as the scene ends, go back one screen. There is a healing circle,
merchant, save point, and a chest with a Knight Edge in it. You should
also see a training dummy; if you kick it you can do some combat
exercises. Continue along the road and you will eventually find Master
Genius. This group sure has a way of attracting weirdoes. Regardless
of how crazy he is; he is pretty powerful. Simply continue down the
road and eventually you will reach the entrance to the city... but you
won't enter and you'll be back at the Genius's house.
After the cut scene head back to the bridge for yet another cut scene.
Then continue along the road until you reach the Nowem Region, there is
rocks scattered throughout the road, so kick them as they quite
frequently have items in them. At the first fork go South, you should
come to a tree bridge, next to it is a chest with recovery pills in it.
Then continue along the path until you get to an area that branch off
in several different directions. The path on the very bottom will face
you against a difficult enemy, but rewards good experience if you can
win, the other two paths come to the same place.
In the next area cross across the log until you get back on the dirt, a
bit past this you should see a log that you are probably assuming you
can't get to like most things in the background, but you are wrong,
walk onto it and there is a chest with a mass of enmity. Continue
along the path and you should soon arrive at the light elf city and get
another cut scene. Ironically, the dark elves are much more friendly
than the light elves.
In this area you can find an item vendor and if you kick the nearby
barrel you can snag a life berry. Nearby by the fireplace is a hidden
staircase (well not hidden, just hard to see from the angle the camera
is in) between the two posts, head up and search the room for a heating
tablet, bell amulet, and evasion berry.
Now enter the door back in the main room and enter the first door
(Brewery) and search around for a magma powder. Back in the hallway
you should find some barrels, search them for a life berry. Then head
down the stairs near where you just got the life berry and kick around
for a mint drop. Now head back to the main area and go up the stairs.
And then head up the other set of stairs for a cut scene; now head back
to the second floor.
Search the shelves in the room to the far northwest (at the end of the
hall) for the elf region music. The next room over has a save point so
you can sleep and rest. Head down to the first floor again. If you
want to get revenge, now is a good time, you can kick Ridley twice to
fight her and if you win you can get an evasion berry. Now go past the
brewery to find Ganz, who wants some whine, if you agree to help him
you'll have to do a little test, use the answers "poor" and "neither"
to get the wine and Ganz will reward you with about 1000D, also if you
can beat Ganz you can get a defense berry as well. Beating Genius will
give you a "sage" as well; he really isn't worth it though. When you
are done save and sleep.
When you awaken, you will find another cut scene and will eventually
fight a blood orc. After a minute the fight will stop and he will take
Ridley out of the fight, now Ganz, Jack and Genius have to fight him
alone. The orc is unbeatable unfortunately, and if you keep moving he
is a pretty easy fight. After another minute the king of the dark
elves will finish him off, and you will see how far the hate between
elves and humans goes. After a few more scenes you will be back in
Castle Radiata.
We have already cleaned out the castle, and we still can't leave it
unfortunately, so head back up to your room. But since Leonard is
gone, kick the bed behind where he usually sits for 10D. I knew he was
holding out on us. Anyways, save at your room and leave and the castle
steward and you will find out there is a problem in the basement. Head
down to the next floor (the dungeon floor) and go forwards a bit for a
cut scene. Then return to your room and rest up for another one; seems
the brigade is in trouble.
Now head for the second floor and go to the item shop and accept the
task to deliver a package to your roommate, Leonard. Go back to your
room for a cut scene, but he won't be there. So head up to the third
floor and use your map to find Ganz's room, and go there. Now head to
the training facility on floor B1; use your map if you haven't been
there before. Afterwards, go to Natalie's room, it is the one right
next to Ganz's. Jack will get discouraged at this point (and I can't
blame him) but you must persevere, as you only have one more place to
go, back to your room. The shopkeeper will give you a few hundred D as
a reward, but I have to wonder if it was worth it.
By the time I got back to my room, Ganz was waiting for me there.
That's it; you're out of the knights unfortunately. If he doesn't show
up, just rest until he does. We'll, I don't know if it was
unfortunately, they weren't exactly the nicest bunch, on the up side;
you do get to beat up a drunk!
Jarvis
Level 21
39/396 HP
This would be a really hard fight, but he only has 39 hp left, so it
should be nearly impossible not to win. Afterwards, save and talk to
the other customers and then to Ganz.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@Theater Vancoor: @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Head back to the first floor and search around for a mustard powder and
luck berry. Then head back to the first floor and enter the door on
the far west and search the plants for a mint drop. Enter the center
door to meet with Caesar. After the "test" go back into his room and
kick the bucket for 80D. Then head up to the second floor.
Kick the knight statue in front of you for a heating tablet and then
proceed to the door. You will have to fight Gerald who will trounce
you, he is unbeatable so don't worry about it. Go back to Gerald's
room and kick his desk for a startle powder. Now head up to the top
floor and search the statues for cooling spray and an herb extract;
then enter the final room. Unfortunately, you and your buddy Ganz must
part ways for now.
After you wake up return to your new house and search around for Jack's
theme. Then head outside (I would save first) and search the debris
around your house for a cure needle. Head towards Theater Vancoor and
kick the first trash bag you see for an item (it is random), and then
head to the theater.
The receptionist will tell you to head one floor down, of course ignore
him and go to the bottom floor and search the storeroom for eye drops.
Then head back to B1 and search the room on the east side for a
strength berry and cure needle. The room at the other end of the hall
has you meeting your new captain, Jarvis... the drunk you beat up
earlier. After the scene go back into the room to get an herb
extract... I guess he isn't just a wino. Then head up to the first
floor and enter the room on the east side to meet up with Jarvis again.
If you remember, Daniel was one of the people who was in the
qualification tournament for the knights; just thought you might enjoy
that informational tidbit.
Daniel
Level 11
326 HP
As long as you are at least level 10 (which you should be quite easily)
he should be no real match against you (and yes, I just listed the
stats of something, I will try to do that more, but this isn't
something I really planned on doing until the next version of the
guide.) Afterwards, you will be made corporal (that was fast) and
Jarvis will teach you the "attack" command. Then probably the best
part of the game will happen, Jarvis will explain recruitment to you.
There are 177 characters in the game that you can put in your party
(including Jack.) And since you are reading this very exciting guide,
I assume you want to do as much as possible, so we are going to try to
get all 177, but I should tell you now, it is impossible to get them
all in your first play through; I can't reveal any more details without
spoiling the game for you. We already have Jack and Clive, so that
leaves 175. We are going to try to get more useful party members
first. Just incase you are a completist like me. It should be noted,
unless I feel that it is necessary for survival, I won't be including
minor items in the guide anymore. It is much easier for both of us if
you walk outside, kill one monster and be able to afford several of the
items instead of kicking everything in the city. If you want to
recruit as many characters as possible before the story forces you to
continue, get Bruce and Golye first and then get Butch and Nick. Also
if you are looking to upgrade equipment, go to the Verontier Armory in
Radiata Square. Also there is a cut scene with Leona at the crossroads
south of Vareth.
Character Recruitment:
Aidan- usually in the Vareth Magic Institute during the day, talk to
him once you have a couple of friends.
Alba- Look around the city, and you should find a man in a half
red/half white coat on. Speak to him a couple of times and he will
fight you. He should be relatively easy. On the next day, find and
fight him again, and he should join. He doesn't seem to hang out in
one particular area unfortunately, but he is easy to get otherwise.
Bruce- Talk to him in the Vancoor infirmary (floor B1) while severely
injured a couple of times.
Butch- you can usually find him working in the northern part of town,
simply talk to him with Golye in the party. At around 1 PM you can
find him near the lottery stand by the Faid General Store.
Carlos- Talk to him in theater Vancoor, he cleans the bathroom in the
morning. Then go to the Vancoor jail (at the bottom of the place) and
enter cell 5 and climb down the ladder. Then follow the water west and
you will eventually see something gold shining at the end of the water
flow; that is his contact lens. Return it to him to recruit Carlos.
Clive- you will get him automatically when recruitment is available.
Cosmo- He is usually hanging around inside the Olacion Order, simply
talk to him enough and he should join you. I have heard mixed things,
but if he doesn't join, just follow him to different areas of the
church and continue to talk to him, he joined me around 7 PM inside the
chapel.
Edgar- During mid day go to Olacion Order east side and you should see
Edgar poking around, eventually he will peak into a window, talk to him
several times and he will start talking about a belt. Go inside the
Olacion Order and go into Fernando's room and kick around for an old
belt. Then speak to Fernando to get permission to give the belt to
Edgar, he is wearing an orange/blue outfit and is usually in his room.
Give the belt to Edgar and he will join your party.
Ernest- if you've been following this guide you should be able to get
him at this point in the game. At the crossroads south of the Vareth
Institute you should find a man playing music at night. Give him the
earth valley music. Come back the next night and he will join you. I
have also seen him inside Vareth institute.
Eugene- Go to the bar at the back of the Vancoor when it is open (the
bar that is) and talk to Eugene over and over and over until he joins
you.
Faraus- Talk to him in the morning at the Vareth Institute infirmary
and you will find out he is missing a book. Simply speak to Cain (who
is usually doing a Sermon in the chapel) for the book and then return
it to Faraus.
Flora- Head to the Olacion Order building and search inside in and you
should eventually see a young girl dressed a bit differently then the
rest of the people there. Talk to her twice and she will say she lost
a picture of her father and thinks it is a bad omen. Go to the
Eisenhower Pharmacy around 10 AM and talk to the receptionist for the
picture. Then return the picture to Flora.
Gene- During the day he is leaning against the Vancoor building, talk
to him and then go to the inn south of Theater Vancoor and talk to the
woman there twice, then talk to Gene again. Do this every day. Gene
is usually at the wall around noon. I believe it takes five days.
Golye- Go to the Vampire Club late at night and you can find him in the
side room, talk to him twice to fight him and he will join you.
Jared- Go to the Vampire Club (spooky I know) early in the morning (its
marked "Void Community on the map) and talk to the guy at the table
until he tells you a story (agree to hear it of course.) He is usually
there at 8AM.
Johan- A bit after noon he will walk into Vareth, he will tell you a
remarkable lie, repeat this for a couple of days and he will join you.
Lulu- Go to Anastasia's room in the Olacion Order in the morning and
she should be in her room, she will be looking for her little pooch.
After that, you need to find her cat. There is one near the trash by
your house. It will likely be the wrong cat when you return it to her,
the next one can be found north of the Vareth Magic Institute. The
last one is found in the northern section of town called "Black Town of
Night and Lust" at the end of an alley, and that should finally
complete it.
Marietta- Go to Vareth Magic Institute and find the star tower, go to
the room on the very bottom of the star tower during the day and you
should get her automatically. If it helps, she was there at 8AM.
Morfinn- Go to his clinic (Eisenhower) and visit him past midnight
while injured red two nights in a row.
Nick- Go to Vancoor square around 11 AM and he should be there drawing.
Talk to him with Bruce in the party. He can also be found on the left
side of the Olacion Order with a group of children.
Pinky- Go to the Vampire club, you can find Pinky in front of the door
usually, but he dozes off at 9 PM. Kick him until he wakes up.
Rachel/Cornelia- At around 6:30 PM she will change into her alter ego
by the boxes at the lottery stand in the "Black Town of Night and
Lust." Talk to her while she is transforming.
Synelia- Go to the Eisenhower Pharmacy, when she is sitting behind the
desk talk to her enough and she will give you a quiz. I am unsure if
the questions are the same each time, but two of my answers were
Crocogator and Jiolus. See:
http://www.divinemight.com/rs_recruitment/index.php/Synelia
If you need help with the questions she asks
Rolec- Go into the Vancoor first floor bathroom at 8 AM and kick him...
that was easy.
Solo- now you get to recruit a pervert, fun. Go to the Vareth
Institute library around 10 AM and talk to Felix who says he thinks
he's being stalked; them talk to the obvious stalker twice to recruit
him.
Friends by this point: Aidan, Alba, Bruce, Butch, Carlos, Clive, Cosmo,
Edgar, Ernest, Eugene, Faraus, Flora, Gene, Golye, Jared, Johan, Lulu,
Marietta, Morfinn, Nick, Pinky, Rachel/Cornelia, Rolec, Solo, and
Synelia
Please go to http://www.divinemight.com/rs_recruitment/ for information
on recruiting them
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@Crocogator Mission: @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Unfortunately the game will force you onto the next mission a day and a
half after starting a Theater Vancoor, so you probably won't have time
to recruit many people, I really wish they wouldn't do that. You will
have to go hunt Crocogator, and Jarvis will be put into your party, and
you won't be allowed to arrange your party since he is the "leader"
which means getting a few people will be impossible for the time being
unless you did them first. But on the plus side, even though he is in
your party, you are free to recruit other characters, as long as they
aren't other character dependant, IE Butch and Nick. If you simply
want to push the story forward and ignore characters then just go to
your room and rest until the next scene comes up, and then go out of
the designated exit on your map.
If you feel like it, you can return to your village and pick up a
defense berry in the chest by your house. Just continue down the path,
using your map as applicable, I would ignore the enemies in the regions
you previously explored, as they aren't worth much to you now.
Unfortunately, the save point at the fort was removed for some odd
reason. The crocogator is found just past the city of flowers entrance
(north at the fork.)
Crocogator
1020 Hp
Level 19
Element: water
Let Jarvis take care of him, and occasionally throw him healing items.
After you win, Jarvis makes it seem you are going to hoof it back by
not giving you a cut scene, that sly dolt. Fortunately, head one
screen back and you will be introduced to the wonder and majesty that
is... the teleportation pig. Anyways, return to the city and go to the
Olacion order and go to Anastasia's room (west wing, first door.) I
really wish they would return her to the wild to swim free with the
rest of the whales.
Anyways, time to pick up a few new characters.
Character Recruitment:
Castle Radiata Characters:
Aldo- Get him the book of Faeries from Septem Village. Aldo can
usually be found walking around near Vancoor. The village is in the
region south or Adien Region. The monsters here should be quite a
challenge. When you arrive at the village, it will be in the chest.
Do not read it; just return the book to him. If you can't find Aldo,
check upstairs in the Begin Eatery, which is down the street from
Vancoor (has big utensils on the sign.)
Anastasia- Talk to Anastasia in her room (at the Olacion Order) and she
should complain about her key. I had a heck of a time starting this
quest. She finally gave me the quest when I had 25000D and was level
25, but she supposedly gives it when you have 10000D. I had no such
luck. Afterwards, talk to Lulu to learn she ate it... I mean threw it
away. So talk to good old...hobo guy, Zeranium. You've probably seen
him wandering around in front of trash piles all over the city, go find
and talk to him. Afterwards, head to Faid General Store, where you can
buy it back for...10000D. Return to Anastasia with the key for her to
join you. I think this might be related, if you can't get her to talk
about the key, just stand there watching her until she leaves the room
through the secret passageway (which she does at 6PM if I recall), come
back the next day and talk to her to see if she talks about it then.
Cecil- Level up Aidan to level 32 (Septem Caves works well) and talk to
Cecil with Aidan in the party. He can usually be found on the second
floor (not in the towers) of the Vareth Institute behind a desk.
Christoph/Jill- Around noon head to Star Tower and go to the first door
on the right and talk to Jill, she needs Gobpakken Seeds and Pointura's
Threads. They can be found on the creatures by the light and dark elf
cities. Once you have 5 of each talk to Christoph and then to Jill to
recruit them both.
Dan- He is the Chef at Club Vampire, I have never seen him not be
there. Talk to him he should send you to Tria village. Then speak to
Saron, one of the village elders of Tria Village and she will give you
the recipe, and then return it to Dan.
Dennis- At around 7PM head to Vancoor second floor, west room and talk
to Dennis until he starts talking about a flower that never dies. Now
teleport to the city of flowers and follow the southwest path until you
reach the end, you should see a glistening red flower off the side of
the road, that is the flower you need. I am not positive, but I think
it might have to be nighttime for it to show up. Then return the
flower to Dennis to have him join you.
Gregory- Gregory can usually be found in the weapon shop in front of
theater Vancoor in the afternoon. There is a level requirement on this
quest, but I am unsure of the exact level. He gave me the quest when I
was level 24, and I hadn't tried talking to him before in several
levels. He wants you to pick up some Liquor from Earth Valley, so head
over there. Go to the bar in the afternoon (the same one you ran the
goblins out of) and talk to the bartender and head back to Gregory.
Lily- Follow Elwen (Leader of Vancoor) down to the sewers and you will
see that she is being followed by Lily. When Elwen enters the alter
room leave the room and wait outside and eventually Lily will come,
talk to Lily when she is crouching and Jack will have to fight her
alone. She is pretty tough so have some healing items. After the
battle Lily will join you. You have to be at least level 22 to recruit
Lily, she wont follow Elwen otherwise. Use this guide if you have
trouble navigating the sewers:
Elwen's Path from Vancoor-
1. Right from the ladder, into the first gate.
2. Forward and into the first gate again.
3. Straight to the end of the hall
4. Head forward and you should be in a room with a huge fountain, go
down the southwest exit.
5. Head forward and then go south the first chance you get.
6. Go east all the way down the hall.
7. You should now be in a large square room, head right and enter the
first gate (avoiding the giant alligator that runs around the center.)
8. Then head down the stairs and Elwen will wait in the room.
Morgan- you need to be level 32 first to get her. Morgan can be found
in the Vareth Institute, in the second floor room of star tower at
around 2PM. Talk to her and she will ask for a donation. The first
donation is only 1000D. The next day come and she will ask for 3000D.
On the day after that she will ask for 9000D. The last one
requires...30,000D. If you have trouble getting the money, I suggest
using the lottery booth in the northern part of town, the payoff is
10,000D.
Paul- He can be found practicing on the bridge over your house
extremely early in the morning, just talk to him.
Tria Village Characters:
Gonber- Go to Tria Village (see Leban) and head out the west exit, and
that is it.
Keaton- Go to Tria Village and talk to him after recruiting Tarkin and
Gonber and he will join you, you don't actually have to have them with
you. He is usually feeding the chickens around 3 PM.
Leban/Wyze- Teleport to Tria Region and then head up to Tria Village
(its not the one you are right by so use your map, it's a bit north.)
Then find Wyze in the village, check the north exit as well. He should
say something about Leban, then leave the village and head past the
piggy teleporter and down the road to see a man being ambushed by what
appears to be giant armadillos, that is Leban. Defeat them and then
head back to Wyze to recruit him as well.
Tarkin- Go to the barn in Tria Village (he was there at 8AM) and talk
to him about his cow problem. Then go back to Castle Radiata and get
the medicine from the pet shop adjacent to Heliforde Gate. Then return
with the medicine and he will join you.
Solieu Village Characters:
Sarval- He is usually feeding the pig in Solieu village in the morning,
talk to him to find he is missing three piglets. The first piglet can
be found on the stone building just north of the village. The next
piglet is south out of town, on the side of the road. The last piglet
is inside of your house. Then return the three pigs to Sarval and he
will join you.
Sunset- Go to Solieu Village (take the teleporter) and he is usually
running around with a butterfly net during the day. Simply talk to him
a couple of times to get him to join.
Forest Metropolis Characters:
Chatt- Go to the forest metropolis, he is the elf that is usually at
the top of the brewery stirring. He will tell you that Clarence was
looking for you. Clarence can be found in the same city if you're
doing it at this current point in the guide. Talk to Clarence and then
talk to Chatt. Come back a day later and talk to Chatt and he should
try to pull another trick on you. Come back in another day at 3AM and
talk to Clarence as he comes back from his run, he should tell you that
Chatt wants to talk to you. Then go to the 3rd floor storeroom to see a
very large bear/sloth thing. Defeat it and Chatt will join you, he
sure is an odd one.
Hyann- Hyann is the gambler of forest metropolis, talk to him while he
is doing the odd/even game (during the morning usually) and win four
times in a row. Make sure to save before playing, because if you lose
the fourth time you lose 10000D (oh, and you can't play if you have
less than that.) I don't know if its just my luck, but both times I
recruited him it was even, even, even, odd for me. And I won the first
time with those. Try it out and send me e-mail if those work for you
as well. Call it even after the game and he will join you.
Martinez- Martinez can be found in the far room of the second floor of
forest metropolis. Buy a record from "Chic Records" in Castle Radiata
and give it to him, come back on the next day and he will join you.
Rika- Rika can be found in the forest metropolis in the second floor
rooms in the morning (Before noon). Talk to her in the morning for a
quiz, answer three questions correctly and she will join you. Here
were my three and the answers:
What does # signify? Half a note higher
How many white keys are there in an octave on a keyboard instrument? 7
Of what animal hair is a violin bow made of? Horse
What is the name of the famous dark elf percussionist? Martinez
How many strings does a guitar have? 6
Romaria- She can be found in forest metropolis, or outside of it a bit.
Kick her and she will fight her, she is a difficult battle at this
point in the game but if you beat her you will have your first elf.
Santos- Put Rika and Martinez in your party (and if it wasn't too
obvious, you must recruit them first) and then talk to Santos. You can
usually find him in the main area of Forest Metropolis in the early
morning or you can find him in the main area of the second floor during
the day.
Septem Village Characters:
Garcia/Bran/Wal- Go to Septem Village (see Aldo) very early in the
morning. At about 7AM Garcia will leave his house, talk to him twice
and he will wonder where Bran and Wal are. Go east until you see a
cave entrance and go in. After a few screen you should see a large ice
turtle attacking two men. Defeat it (it was easier than all the other
fights in the cave and then return to Septem Village and talk to all
three of them.
Nuevo Village Characters:
Howard- Talk to Tarkin in Tria Village when he is in the barn for some
milk (after you have recruited Tarkin). He is in the barn around 8 AM.
After you get the milk, go to Nuevo Village. Howard leaves his house
at exactly 6AM; you need to talk to him them, as the rest of the time
he is pretty much impossible to get to. Talk to him twice in a row to
get the quest and complete it.
Stefan- Go to Nuevo Village in the afternoon. At around 7PM he is
sitting by a tree next to the village, he will ask you two questions,
the answers are yes and No. He leaves his house around 7 AM as well
(also Nuevo Village.)
Dova Region Characters:
Mook- Head out the southwest castle exit until you come to a crossroads
with a hut. At noon a man will get out of the field, talk to him about
his monster problem and head north and follow the path all the way up
to the top of the mountain to face his monster. After you defeat him,
make sure to claim the defense berry from the chest. He also gives you
a little bit of a cash reward...double score.
When you return to your room you will most likely have another cut
scene, if you don't keep resting and you will eventually. Shelia's
house is right by the fountain, so approach it. Afterwards you'll be
free to roam again.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@Extra Missions: @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
BIG NOTE: If you want to complete all the extra missions, and collect
the characters you get in them you need to be careful. After a couple
of days, if you talk to Thanos, he will force you onto the next
storyline mission (IE You won't be able to complete the extra
missions.) To prevent this, talk to Thanos right before 9PM. I would
save beforehand just to be careful.
Vexatious Vermin:
Simply head the Vareth Institute and talk to the receptionist, Roche.
Afterwards, Daniel will be forced into your party, so make room for
him. And then simply pound the rats into extinction. Afterwards, the
crew will chase the big papa down to the sewers for a battle with him
and about 20 other rats. While he is a rat, he is extremely tough (but
weak offensively.) So just defeat the others and have everyone beat on
him. Afterwards, the rat will flee to fight another day. But for
winning the battle I got a Book of Recovery and an Evasion Berry.
Unfortunately, Jack being the nice guy that he is, splits half the
money with Daniel.
A Masterpiece of Fantasy:
Go to the weapon shop that is about 10 feet out the door of Theater
Vancoor for a cut scene. Afterwards, warp to Earth Valley and enter
the city. Search around and you should see three doors next to each
other, with the same sign (a hammer striking metal.) Go into each of
the three doors and collect the packages. Then return to the weapon
shop and collect your reward.
Smilodon Fang:
Talk to Thanos and get the Smilodon Fang mission. Then go to the
Olacion Order, and go into the room south of Anastasia's to talk to
Dwight... I think he needs the medicine himself. Head out of the south
gate and head to the region marked on your map. Once you arrive travel
down the road and you should see a Smilodon fairly quickly. While Jack
makes the point you could sell off other teeth for more, I couldn't
find any other male Smilodon in the area. So head back and claim your
reward. Dwight and Grant are now available as characters as well.
Grant- you can find grand in Dwight's room in the morning. Talk to him
and he will want you to hand out some flyers. Servia, Sonia, Lunbar,
Silvia, and Zeke are the people they are supposed to be delivered to in
the beast pit. Lunbar runs the weapons shop on the floor your enter
the beast pit on. Sonia runs Chic Records, which is on your map.
Servia is the assistant cook at the Vampire Club. Zeke runs the inn on
the first floor of the beast pit. Silvia works in the vampire club at
nights. Return to Grant after all 5 fliers have been delivered and he
will join you.
Dwight- At 6PM go into the confessional at the Olacion Order, do not
wait in the confessional, enter it, as waiting won't cause the scene to
occur. Then run around to the other side of the confessional and talk
to Dwight to get him to join.
Beast at the Bridge:
Onto the next mission, beast at the bridge, get it from the same place
as last time, Thanos. Then head to the markers on your map for a cut
scene and a battle, you will have to face a large snake and a small
army of treants; the snake is what you should be worrying about, so
concentrate fire on it until it is taken out. You can do the first
part in recruiting the three workers now as well.
Elef/Hip/Ryan- Return to the bridge the next day after completing the
quest where you meet them. They will have ruined their blueprints,
return to the castle. Go to the inn by Heliforde Gate marked with the
horse sign and talk to the innkeeper until she hands over the
blueprints, and then return to Elef. Like I said before, they won't
join you now, but they will in the future.
Characters at this point: Aidan, Alba, Aldo, Anastasia, Bran, Bruce,
Butch, Carlos, Cecil, Chatt, Christoph, Clive, Cosmo, Dan, Dennis,
Dwight, Edgar, Elef*, Ernest, Eugene, Faraus, Flora, Garcia, Gene,
Golye, Gonber, Grant, Gregory, Hip*, Howard, Hyann, Jared, Jill, Johan,
Keaton, Leban, Lily, Lulu, Marietta, Martinez, Mook, Morfinn, Morgan,
Nick, Paul, Pinky, Rachel/Cornelia, Rika, Rolec, Romaria, Ryan*,
Santos, Sarval, Solo, Stefan, Sunset, Synelia, Tarkin, Wal, and Wyze.
*= Not joined yet, but indicates their quest needs to be done now.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@Escort Mission: @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Talk to Thanos after completing a couple of missions and he will spur
you onto the next storyline mission, where you escort the princess.
Wow, that is the most masculine name for a princess I can think of.
Afterwards, you will automatically escort the princess into town and
she will be taken from under your nose. Those are the best bandits I
have ever seen, wow. Anyways, Jack knows where to go even if you
don't, so you can't get lost. When you enter a building with a save
and heal point (which you should probably use) go upstairs and pull the
circuit breaker on the wall and then head back downstairs and a passage
will open up, descend. And then you will have to fight a guy named
Elmo... After the first fight, Daniel will be forced out and you will
have to fight the Duo again, concentrate on the big guy first, as he
packs a wallop.
Joaquel
Level 20

Special: Steal
Elma
Level 13

Head east and take the first path up. Continue heading east up the
ladder and into the next area. You should be in a large square room,
head east and enter the gate on the other side. Head down the hall,
and go into the door at the end. You should arrive in another large
square room; enter the gate marked 01. Go west and enter the door at
the end of the hall. Then head past the first door your come to and up
the sewer pipe. At the end of the pipe climb up the ladder for another
cut scene. After you are returned to Theater Vancoor you will be
promoted, and now you can recruit even more people. Now, Gerald will
teach you how to use links, a very interesting tactical formation.
Afterwards return and speak to Thanos and head for the town square for
a cut scene. This weirdo is looking for a man named Aphelion. He pays
you an extraordinary amount of money to find him (100,000D). After a
series of scenes you will find out the money is worthless
unfortunately.
Character Recruitment:
BIG NOTE: To stop the storyline from progressing, only save/go into
your house after midnight.
Daniel- simply talk to him, he can usually be found in/around Theater
Vancoor. Supposedly you have to do the quest Vexatious Vermin to get
him.
Caesar- Put Aldo and Gareth in your party and talk to him at Vancoor
Square at 6PM when he is by the fountain.
Conrad- He can be found in the Quintom Squad Locker Room (Theater
Vancoor floor B1) at around 11AM. Not only will he join you just for
talking to him, he will also give you 1000D.
David- you can usually find him just outside Theater Vancoor at 9AM.
He will ask you to deliver a letter to Mint, who you can usually find
in Tria Village at around 11AM. Give her the letter and then return to
David.
Elena/Adina- Go to the Morfinn Clinic during the day and talk to the
little boy upstairs until you tell him a story. Do this for three
days. Then talk to Elena, she is one of the two twins usually
escorting Anastasia. After you recruit Elena, put her in your party
and talk to her twin, Adina.
Elef/Hip/Ryan- Go into the back doors of the Peaceful Pony Inn and talk
to them and they will join you (if you did the other things I
instructed you to in the previous sections.)
Eon- Go to the void community torture room and at 11PM Eon will enter
and start playing with the rats. Go see Dr. Morfinn after talking with
him. So go talk to Morfinn in his clinic (he is there at midnight so
you should be able to talk to him right afterwards.) And then talk to
the owner of Waldo General Store the next morning, and then return the
medicine to Eon.
Franklin- Talk to him with a female in your party. He can usually be
found walking into moon tower at about 2 PM.
Gareth- you can find him in the Theater Vancoor training area at 3AM.
Talk to him and he will fight you. If you defeat him, he will join
you.
Gareth
Level 19

Special: Freeze
Giske/Jarvis- first, get your money is below 5000D. That's right, I
want you to make yourself poor this time. I suggest getting Iris if
you want to get rid of a lot of money. Then go to the bar behind
Theater Vancoor around 4PM and talk to the bartender to collect some
tabs. Jasmine can be found next to the Benign Eatery during the day in
the accessory shop. Then find Jarvis, he is usually found in Theater
Vancoor during the day. Let him pass on collecting the tab for now.
Return to Giske and he will demand you pay the tab, but you don't have
the money. Then go out and make the 5000D you need. Return to the bar
(Do NOT speak to Jarvis again first) and pay off Jarvis's tab. Giske
will join you for collecting the tabs, and then find Jarvis; he will
join you for paying off his tab.
Gordon- He can be found on Theater Vancoor, 3rd floor in Gerald's Room
(The Zweit Squad Locker Room) at around 3PM. Talk to him and he will
fight you, defeat him and he will join you.
Gordon

Special: Poison
Iris- you need 40,000D to get Iris. She can usually be found in the
Olacion Order building main hall around noon (on the bottom right hand
corner, she can be hard to see.) Talk to her and she will want
20,000D. Say you will double it.
Lyle- Put Conrad in your party and talk to him. He is usually in the
general store in Vancoor Square during the day.
Yack- first you need to run into a Tsuchinoko. It's a rare creature; I
saw one at night at the large tree southeast of Fort Helencia (the one
at the end of the path). It looks like a short fat snake; if it
doesn't show up, try again the next night. When you get into battle
with it, cure its poison status (Don't kill it) and it will run away.
Afterwards check your item list and you should have a Tsuchinoko
Dumpling, keep this item, it's used for getting another character.
Anyways, after fighting the Tsuchinoko find and talk to Yack, he leaves
Nuevo Village and heads west at 7AM.

@Extra Missions 2: @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Creatures of the Sewer:
For this job you need to head down into the sewers. I need to make one
thing clear, that people don't understand. You MUST use the sewers in
Theater Vancoor. Not the one in void community. So head down to Floor
B2 of Theater Vancoor and enter the east door and go into cell 5 and
descend the ladder.
1. Head east and enter the first gate.
2. Continue along the path and enter the first gate again.
3. Head through the next area and up the stairs.
4. You should be in a room with a large fountain/waterfall. Enter the
door to the northeast side of the waterfall. You should get a cut
scene when you enter.
5. Continue on through the next 2 areas for a cut scene and then the
fight.
Mud Ponbarbar
Level 31
3150 HP
Element: Water
Special: Confuse/Petrify/Poison
As long as you have someone who can heal status ailments (like Flora)
this should be an easy fight. Just try to avoid his breath of status
ailments. When you defeat him, he drops a rune saber, a good two-
handed weapon that can petrify your enemies. Return to Thanos and
collect your 5000D.
Tony- Tony can be found in the room northeast of the large waterfall
room fishing. You should have seen him while doing the mission.
Return and speak to Tony and he will join you for making the sewers a
better place.
The Ultimate Battle:
Once you get the mission, go up to the top floor of Theater Vancoor and
speak to the chief. She decided to let you handle it, instead of her.
Leave the Theater and head to the city exit by Vareth Magic Institute
(as marked on your map.) Exit the city through the gate and you will
be forced into a fight.
Melissa
Level 27
3200 HP
Special: Confuse/Poison Blind
This fight is easy for one reason, the creature is slow as heck and so
are its attacks. Just keep moving and you should be able to pretty
easily avoid every move it has. Unfortunately, you are fighting this
one alone, so try to bring some HP Cure items. For winning, you get an
evasion berry as well.
Treasure of Goblin Cemetery:
After getting the quest head to the Vareth Institute library. Head up
the staircase in the library and search the bookshelf on the far right
and Jack should get the password to the cemetery.
Leave the institute and head out of the city using the gate marked on
your map (Lupus Gate.) Now head to the bridge the guys in "beast at
the bridge" were working on and cross it. Head forward a bit and you
will come to a crossroads and get a scene with the goblin trio again.
They will engage you in a battle, using the same tactic as last time.
Fortunately, they aren't that much stronger in comparison. After the
battle, choose "let them go" and they will join you. So if you're
doing checklist of characters; mark off Aesop, Monki, and Gob. For now
we are going to head to the mission and get the other goblin characters
afterwards.
Anyways, head directly west at the crossroads. At the next crossroads,
take the left branch. At the next fork, go forward and collect a life
berry and then return to the branch and go the other way. At yet
another crossroads head left and you will come to a chest and be
ambushed by a giant snake.
King Serpent
Level 31
1000 HP
After trouncing the serpent, open the chest for a rainbow crystal.
Hold onto this (don't sell it.) Then return to the fork and head the
other direction. Continue ahead and you will eventually get to the
cemetery and get a cut scene, head down the ladder.
Head trough the tomb, collecting the chests as you go. There is only
one path to take. Eventually you will come to a large room with a cut
scene where you will have to face off with Gobblehope and an army of
bone goblins.
Gobblehope IX
Level 30
1650 HP
For winning the battle you get a mystery berry. Loot all the chests in
the room, and then return to Thanos. He gives you the reward AND lets
you keep the recruitment suit.
Gonovitch's Dilemma:
Hoof it over to earth valley and go into the big gold building and head
up to the second floor for a cut scene. Now, head to the mine on the
southeast side of the city (it has a dwarf standing by it.) Make sure
you go into this one.
Head forward and when you get to a large room, head west. In the next
room, wait at the end of the hall for the elevator and ride it to the
bottom. When you get to the next large room (with the green box) head
west again until you see a cut scene. You have to face off against two
rockdiggers.
Rockdigger

For defeating them you get two life berries. Afterwards had back to
Earth Valley and report to Gonovitch and then head back to Theater
Vancoor to pick up your reward.
Character Recruitment:
Gerald- Go into Club Vampire for a cut scene and agree to take the
letter to Gerald. Go up to his office on the third floor of Theater
Vancoor for a scene, and then return to Club Vampire. Then head back
to Theater Vancoor and go to Elwen's office on the fourth floor;
afterwards, head to the nearby gate (Faucon) for another scene between
Gerald and Nocturne.
Gerald
Level 44
1884 HP
Special: Blaze
If you manage somehow to beat Gerald, he will join you. The most
effective way people seem to beat him is by poisoning him and just
running around until his HP drops to zero,
Nocturne- Put Gerald in your party and talk to him, he is pretty much
always in Club Vampire aside from when he is sleeping. Use the same
strategy you used against Gerald (poison him).
Nocturne
Level 44
1983 HP
Special: Steal
Elmo- Do the events to get Gerald and then talk to Elmo and he will
fight you. He can usually be found in Club Vampire. Simply defeat him
and he will join up with you.
Elmo
360 HP
Level 13
Joaquel- After the events with Gerald and Nocturne go to the void
community basement at 5PM and wait there (by the door that is always
locked) and before 6PM Joaquel will come down. Talk to him and he will
tell you to guard the door. Just wait for him to come back (very fast)
and he will join you.
Ben- He is usually found in the back of Shangri La, sleeping. Kick him
until he wakes up, and then talk to him and listen to his story.
Bligh- Bligh leaves his him in Nuevo Village at 6AM, he will complain a
goblin stole his pipe. Teleport to Shangri La and use the exit at the
back, you are looking for a goblin with a cone on its head. Talk to
him twice (Brie) and he will fight you.
Brie
Level 15
203 Hp
Then go back into the city and look for something sparkling on the
ground that is the pipe. Afterwards, return the pipe to Bligh and he
will join you.
Brie- first get Bligh and then return to the Goblin you fought, this is
Brie. All you need to do is talk to him with two mages from Vareth
Magic Institute in your party.
Lin- Lin can be found in the huts at the back of Shangri La at night.
Talk to him and he will ask you a couple of questions. The answers are
handsome, responsible, and Sergeant Lin.
Goo- He can usually be found on the first floor of Shangri La, give him
an empty bottle. He will also give you a Toadstool Lance.
Den- He can usually be found on the upper floors of Shangri La. Kick
him five times and he will fight you.
Den
Level 10
156 HP
After you defeat him, he will join you.
Mason- Mason is usually at the top of Shangri La running around like a
moron. Kick him three times (which is difficult) and he will play hide
and seek with you. To find him the first time go down the ladder by
where he was running at, the ladder is at the very bottom part of the
screen. The second time you can find him in a shack at the very
highest part of Shangri La. The last time you can find him hiding in
one of the huts inside a pot; after that he will join you.
Gabe- first, buy 50 panic powders from the Black Rose General Store in
Radiata castle (that will cost 4000D). Then head to Shangri La in the
morning, Gabe is by the sign with a mushroom, talk to him when he is
smoking his pipe and give him the 50 panic powders.
Gonn- Use the teleportation pig and go to Shangri La and then go east
until you're back at the main fork. Go north and you should see a
goblin by a chest (if you haven't looted the chest before, do that now
as well.) Talk to him until he joins (around 7 times.) He is usually
there at 7AM.
Donkey- Donkey is found in the outdoor section of Shangri La (go into
the city and then go into the exit in the back.) He is usually there
in the late morning. Buy all 12 of his records (12000D) and then talk
to him again and he will join you.
Golly- First get Donkey and put him into your party. Then talk to
Golly and he will join. Golly can be found in the same area as Donkey
by the platform.
Gobrey- Gobrey is a Ghost. To recruit him you need a Tsuchinoko
Dumpling that you should have got when you recruited Yack if you cured
the Tsuchinoko instead of killing it. If not, go read Yack's section
on where to find one. Gobrey can usually be found in the back of
Shangri La.
Zida- I hope you have been using an axe if you want to get him at this
point in the game. Use the training dummy and get up to stage 16 using
an axe. You will have to fight a blood orc; occasionally you will get
a blood orc horn for winning, which is what you need. Zida can usually
be found in the wine cellar in forest metropolis, talk to him until he
commands you to get a Gobpakken seed. So get one now if you don't have
one on you (they are found in the area around the city of flowers on
the plant monsters.) Bring the seed back to him, but he will want the
blood orc horn instead. Talk to him once again with the horn and he
will join you (he doesn't actually take the horn.)
Claudia- After recruiting Zida head to the basement of Moon Tower in
the Vareth institute at around 6PM and talk to Claudia who needs the
Blood Orc horn, give it to her. Now come back again the next day and
talk to her again and the guy in the tank will twitch. Come see her
again two more times on two more days and she will join you.
When you are done recruiting head back to your room (during the day)
for a scene with Leonard who give you an invitation. You will
automatically be put into Radiata Castle after a couple of cut scenes,
there is a nearby save point if you need to use it. When you're ready,
head to the very top floor of the castle for another scene; after the
scene return to your room and rest for a scene with Genius, Ridley and
the lord of the Night Elves.
When you awaken, save and head to Thanos, a new mission has become
available.
Stone of Miracles:
After accepting the mission head to the Olacion Order for a cut scene
with Kain. He tells you that the stone can be found in the Septem
Cave. If you've been following the guide for recruiting characters, it
should be a familiar place. But if not, you can find the cave in the
Septum Region, which is south of the Adien Region. Go into the main
entrance of the cave (not the one on the side path) and follow the cave
and you will eventually see a cut scene with a large Kraken type
monster. Concentrate on its body when it comes out of the water and
avoid the nasty breath attack that will make you blind and break your
link. When you win you will get the Leviathan spear and a strength
berry as well.
After defeating it, don't go back the way you came. Head forward into
the next area and jump down and follow the path east. It is much
quicker than going back through the cave.
Return to the Olacion Order and claim your reward, an orb. Make sure
to read the description of the item. After the scene ends you should
get another scene talking about the dwarves. Afterwards, Thanos has
another mission for you.
Top Secret Mission:
After accepting the mission head to the city exit in the north part of
town as labeled on your map. When you get there your party will split
away and a gang of thieves will ambush you. There are about 5 of them,
and they shouldn't be too much of a hassle if you are around level 40.
Afterwards, go talk to Thanos and return to your room and sleep until
you see a scene where Cross orders an attack on the dwarves. After the
scene sleep again for a scene where Donovitch visits you and tells you
about what has happened. Then you must walk over to Earth Valley where
you will see a gruesome and a sad scene. After it is over, head back
to the castle (you can use the pig by Earth Valley.) When you arrive
back in town go to Thanos, he has another mission for you.
Build That Body!:
Head over to the Olacion Order and you will engage in four battles.
You must defeat all of them to be able to recruit the characters.
Vitas
Level 18
426 HP
Alvin
Level 21
511 HP
Miranda
Level 25
506 HP
Special: Hp Heal/Recover
Achilles
Level 28
1406 HP
For beating all four of them you get 3000D when you return to Thanos.
Now you can recruit a couple of more characters. Don't return to your
room during the day, only do it right after midnight, any other time
will trigger the story again. These characters can't be recruited on
the same day as the "Build that Body!" mission either; they simply
don't exist on that day for some reason.
Character Recruitment:
Miranda- you need to get her to heal you (and thus you must be injured)
on three different days in three different locations. In the morning
(7-9 AM) she is in the Olacion Order, the rest of the day she runs
around the city looking for Godwin.
Vitas- She can be found in the Olacion Order in her room on the west
wing at 11 AM when she is practicing. Talk to her and she will fight
you again. Defeat her and she will join you. Her stats are the same
as last time, so it should be no problem.
Godwin- Level Miranda up to Level 35 and then talk to him; he can be
found on the side of the Olacion Order at 3PM teaching children.
Return to your room when you are ready to continue the story where you
will get a summons to the castle. Oddly, going to the castle does
nothing, so go back to sleep. You will get a scene with Ridley, and
the biggest choice of the game will happen. You will have to pick a
side, the humans or nonhumans/fairy creatures. You will lose all the
characters you recruited on the other side. If it sways you at all,
the non-human side gets Ganz and Ridley if you are nostalgic for them.
Most people say that the fairy side has the better story while the
human side has the better characters. For my first play through I
selected the non-human side.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@Nonhuman Side: @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Ridley will join your party; walk over to Fort Helencia where you can
use the teleportation pig to the City of Flowers (the other ones don't
work right now.) When you arrive, the elves give you a less then
friendly welcome. After the scene use the teleportation pig near the
city of flowers to go to Fort Helencia (I would use the save as well)
and head inside.

After the battle you will see the strangest scene in the game... Jack
will flee the fort and be joined by Pitt, Row, And Gil and you will
engage Leonard and Natalie again.

Natalie
Level 34
1071 HP
Special: Paralyze
This time Natalie will try to use her Volty attack, which is pretty
much an instant kill unless you're at full health/obscenely over
leveled. When she flares up, run away so she will use the blast on one
of your team members instead. Or you could just Volty her instead if
you can. Try to break up their formation by taking out the guards
first as the area effect attack the formation generates is nasty.
After the battle you will automatically go back and finally be allowed
to go into the city of flowers. Presently, the light elves will not
let you talk to them or go inside any buildings except Lord Zane's, so
just head there for a series of cut scenes where most of the plot
finally comes together.
Head out of the room and past the dwarf (who supposedly dug his way
here) and into the next room, you can find a chest in here with the
Glory Axe inside of it. The northern exit is your new room where you
can sleep and save as usual. The southern room heads to the courtyard.
In the courtyard you can buy new weapons/armor... and they are quite
expensive but about twice as good as anything before this point (even
the training dummy equipment... some of which you can also buy here). I
would not worry about buying new armor until you can afford the
Alefstrain. You can also put people into your party here, but
currently you really only have room for one, as Coco will be forced
into your party when you head out. You will notice that your roster
has been heavily diminished to just the Elves, Goblins, and Ridley... and
it will stay that way.
Anyways, head into the southeast door in the courtyard for a side quest
scene. Go talk to Lord Zane, the dwarf shop owner, Clarence the dark
elf, Lord Zane again, and then go back to where you saw the original
cut scene. Now you have two more shops to choose from, one selling
accessories and the other selling potions and the like. You can
recruit a couple of characters now as well.
Franz - Head back into the courtyard and talk to the elf in the center
for another cut scene where he wants to challenge Gil. So agree to
watch the fight and see him get trounced. Wasn't that a magical
moment? Go to sleep and you can find him in the courtyard in the
morning, talk to him and he will join you.
Head out the main exit from the courtyard for a scene with a very
inebriated dwarf who wants even more liquor... so he can share it... Of
course agree to help him. Talk to the dwarven shop owner in the
courtyard and he will tell you to talk to Naom (the dwarf in front of
Zane's room.) Then go talk to the dwarf in the courtyard that is
always pounding steel. After that return to Grigory to finally deliver
the beer, it's a lot of work to get one dwarf tanked.
Then finally head out of the blasted Fort Helencia and there are a few
characters to recruit right off the bat.
Grigory- if you leave during the day talk to the dwarf that is training
outside of the fort and he will join you.
Serva- Like Grigory, he can be found outside the fort training during
the day. Talk to him while he is training and agree to help him train
and he will fight you. You have to do this three times on different
days for him to join you
Serva
Level 27
639 HP
Gil- Gil can be found right outside the fort around dusk, talk to him
and he will fight you. After defeating him he will join you and... write
a poem.
Gil
Level 34
883 HP
Element: Wind
Special: Freeze
Marsha/Keane- Head back inside and buy 10000D worth of items from their
shops and the return to them after a couple of days and they should
join you. I'm not sure of that amount; some reports say it might be
20,000D instead. Anyways, you have to buy that amount all at the same
time.
Naom- Head back inside and talk to him and he will join up. He is the
dwarf that is always in front of Lord Zane's room.
Now that we are done recruiting characters head to the marker on your
map. When you arrive in the new region (which has the coolest bridge
eve) you will be in for quite the climate change. This region is a bit
confusing because it has several intertwining paths at different
elevations and sometimes it can be difficult to spot the mushroom
elevator. Anyways, when you see a mushroom elevator, just kick the
stalk and it will descend.
Ricky- Take all the southern paths and eventually you will come to a
goblin by a chest (loot that too!) and he will mention biting you and
missing his wolf. Head all the way back to the bridge and go to the
eastern side and his wolf will be by the anonymous dark elf boy.
Apparently he is injured, so give him an herb extract (see, animals
like herbs too!) and he will perk right up. He will then run off into
the sunset. Head back to Ricky and he will join you for reuniting him
and happy... in their happiness.
Once you arrive at Goblin haven Coco will leave because of the smell.
There is a save point inside which I would definitely use. We can
recruit a significant portion of the population very easily, so lets do
it now.
Jan- He is directly south of the save point, talk to him and answer
"yup" and he will fight you.
Jan
Level 19
286 HP
Special: Poison
Niko- He is usually on the ledge, but occasionally he will fall off.
When he falls off talk to him and he will join you.
Pietro- Talk to him twice and he will fight you... three times.
Regardless of all his boasting, he has the same stats for each of the
three fights.
Pietro
Level 26
406 HP
Special: Poison
Georgio- Talk to him when he is wielding a sword (and not smoking) and
while you have a two handed sword equipped and he will fight you. He
is the goblin near the center of the room by the stone slab.
Georgio
Level 24
452 HP
Special: Poison
Then save and head up the ramp on the north side of the room for a cut
scene with the legendary Gawain. Ridley is quite right, you can't win
the fight, but do as much damage as you can anyways. After the battle
a healing circle will appear, use it and talk to Sir Gawain Again.
Gawain
Level 53
1350 HP
His current HP depends on how much damage you did to him in the
previous fight, his minimum seems to be 350 HP though. For winning,
you get a mystery berry and Gawain joins you. It is temporary, and he
will leave when you return to the fort, so make sure to learn his skill
before then. As I don't believe anyone else on the nonhuman path has
it. Anyways, you will be told the story of Cairn, and if you look
closely at the picture of an elf attacking (killing him) it looks a lot
like... Gil. Anyways after the scene you will be outside. Head back
inside to recruit a couple more characters.
Luka- He is the one closest to the exit, put on the recruitment suit
you got from the goblin cemetery and talk to him.
Giovanni- He is the one sitting by the cauldron, talk to him with the
recruitment suit on.
Danny- He is the one sitting right in front of the door to the shrine
area. Talk to him right after midnight for a very strange conversation
and he will join you.
Sonny- He is found in the shrine of the city, all you need to do is
talk to him with the recruitment suit on.
Polpo- Talk to him when he is stirring the cauldron and taste the brew,
and then talk to him again. He wants you to collect three deathclover
larva. They can be found outside on mushrooms (not the ones on the
ground.) You will have to scour the entire region to find three. When
you return give them to him and he will join you. Speak to him again
after he joins to get some of his soup, which is needed to recruit
another character.
Bosso- To find Bosso go back to the beginning of the area (the bridge
side) and follow only the southern path and you should eventually find
a goblin surrounded by Matangos. When you find him talk to him to fight
off two Matangos, unfortunately they were his friends not his enemies
and he attacks you.
Bosso
