Princess Minerva Menu Explanation FAQ Written By: Soul Eater Vin (a.k.a. Gray Wolf Alpha) Copyright 2003 Vincent Orsini "Soul Eater Vin" Created On: Tuesday, January 21st, 2003. === Introduction === Ah yes, welcome to this fairly unknown game. The reason why I wrote this FAQ is because I had nothing better to do with my time. So I searched the GameFAQs database and found this little RPG. Unfortunetly, because I dont know a letter of Japanese, I have to search through this game with a little bit of searching skills and a HUGE amount of luck. Well I bet your tired of hearing me ramble so now I'll get you to the game! Oh yeah, and prepare to hear the word "explanation" a lot for lack of a better word to use. === Index === Okie dokie, pardon me for not getting the layout of the FAQ all correctly made like. Its my first time so I'm undoubtedly going to have errors. 1. World Menu Explanation 2. Shop Menu Explanation 3. Battle System Menu Explanation 4. Character Profiles 5. Credits & Legal Crap 6. Contact Info === 1. World Menu Explanation === Well if your as stupid as I am, your probably wondering what all those command do in the first place. Well here I will provide explanations of what they so you dont have to go thru the painful search of finding out what they do. First thing first is, THE WORLD MENU. This will hold all of your items, weapons, characters, and what-not so get used to navigating through it. Here's a layout of the menu so you know exactly what is where: Option 1: Spell Selection Option 2: Item Selection Option 3: Status Screen Option 4: Equipment Screen Option 5: Numerous Option [Refer to Option 5-A for explanation of each menu] Option 6: Map Display !Option 5-A! Explanation; since there is more than one selections in the menu, it makes it hard to figure out which one does what. For the first selection, I have no clue what it does since whenever I selected something it didnt seem to make any noticeable changes at all. The Second selection does Party Formation so you can change what people are in your party. The Third Selection once again I have no clue what it does since it didnt seem to make any changes in the game at all. And the Fourth Selection just seems to display a messege which I have no clue what it says since I dont know Japanese. [The rest of the menu options are fairly self-explanatory and you shouldnt have any problems navigating yourself thru them if you've played any other RPG's.] === 2. Shop Menu Explanation === Ah yes, one of the most important part of RPG's are of course, the shops. Just so you dont worry your pretty little head over everything, I'll provide a description of what choices do what. I'm sure you know what to do just by reading what I've listed so there isnt a huge need for me to go into detail. Shop List of Choices: 1. Buy 2. Sell 3. ??? (I'm guessing its a Talk command because I got text upon selecting it) 4. Exit Inn List of Choices: 1. Stay 2. ??? (Once again, I think this is a Talk command cause of the text I got) === 3. Battle Menu System Explanation === The main part of the game and important things since it wouldnt be an RPG if there werent any battles. There is the simple HP and MP stats but I also saw there is TP and SP to use up in the game. TP probably stands for Technique Points for Technique's and abilities of the like and SP probably stands for Skill Points for yet another set of skills to use. Just wanted to clear that up so you dont get confused like a squirrel caught in on-coming traffic. Alright, when you encounter an enemy, you are given a series of simple choices to choose from. In order from left to right, there is: [Fight] [Unite Attack] [Run] [???] [Fight]: This brings up even MORE choices. But still, they were pretty easy to figure out. The first choice is for a single character to attack an enemy. The second choice is Defend. The Third choice is the Spell List to use a technique of what the character knows. The Fourth choice brings up the item menu to use an item. And I dont know what the Fifth choice does, since its a menu that is also found in the World Menu but I never figured out what it does exactly. That is all for the [Fight] Command. [Unite Attack]: It kinda speaks for itself, all the characters group up and all of them attack an enemy at the same for huge damage. Although if you use this command, all 3 character's turns will be used up and you will have to wait till the next turn to do anything. [Run]: Okay, if you dont know what this command does. I suggest you walk away from the game, look at yourself in the mirror, and proceed to be sad because of how stupid you are. [???]: Once again, this command brings up Text that I cant read so I have no clue what it does exactly. === 4. Characters Profiles === Well your probably thinking, "Hey! I thought you couldnt read Japanese??" Well I cant, I just found these small profiles of the characters from the intro to the game. They were even nice enough to provide us with their B/W/H stats. ^_^ Minerva Age: 17 Blood: AB Type Zodiac: Gemini Height: 163 cm B/W/H: 85/58/88 [Vin Note: I'm 99.9% sure that she is the main character of the game. Why else would they call name her Minerva with a title like Princess Minerva?] Kastle Age: 17 Blood: A Type Zodiac: Archer Height: 168 cm B/W/H: 76/54/80 Tyrolia Age: 21 Blood: B Type Zodiac: Libra Height: 172 cm B/W/H: 84/58/86 Olin Age: 20 Blood: O Type Zodiac: Virgo Height: 160 cm B/W/H: 86/60/89 Tua Age: Unknown Blood: Unknown Zodiac: Unknown Height: 132 cm B/W/H: ?/?/? [Vin Note: I'd bet a good amount of a money that Tua is Olin's lesbian lover by the looks of their profile picture. ^_^] Bluemoris Age: 22 Blood: A Type Zodiac: Cancer Height: 170 cm B/W/H: 85/58/83 Mizuno Age: 16 Blood: Unknown Zodiac: Unknown Height: 160 cm B/W/H: 82/56/80 Elan Age: 17 Blood: AB Type Zodiac: Scorpio Height: 165 cm B/W/H: 83/56/80 Lacroia Age: 19 (She does NOT look 19 to me) Blood: O Type Zodiac: Goat Height: 177 cm B/W/H: 98/62/93 [Vin Note: She's the sexiest looking character in this game IMO. ^_^;;] Dynastar Age: Unknown Blood: Unknown Zodiac: Unknown Height: Unknown B/W/H: ?/?/? === 5.
