In my opinion, this is the best RPG on the SNES. I even think it is better than the 'unbeatable' Chrono Trigger, which is also on the SNES. If you want to know, it is the biggest SNES ROM dump EVER. That should give you a good idea on how good and big it is. Well, this game is still in Japanese and Dejap (Game Translators) are in the middle of translating it so I am making a guide so if you badly want to play it, you will be able to make progress. Well, here we go... _______________________________________ History _______________________________________ 15/9/01 - Created Guide, Made 22 Sections (not final), corrected Spelling mistakes (10%). Finished Controls Section. Finished Battle System Finished A.R System Finished Anger Explosion, Finished Character System 12/10/01 - Not as much as I hoped, but I have managed to get the skills section done, the spell section done and the battle arena is finally complete. I have had many e-mails about that. 28/10/01 - I'm not paying much attention to the guide. Started on main guide, only a bit done. _______________________________________ Next update _______________________________________ 30/10/01 - Version 0.3 - Start on the FAQ, Make Contents Page more detailed (e.g. Each Character has their own section)Fix Spelling Mistakes (20%) Work more on the actual Walkthrough. Oh yeah, Version 0.3 is kind of a small update. But you at least have a bit of the guide to work from. Version 0.5 is going to be a HUGE update. 15/11/01 - Version 0.4 - Work on the FAQ, nothing else 30/11/01- Version 0.5 - The mother of the updates so far. FAQ completed, Walk' big chunk completed (100%) spelling mistakes corrected. Adding 3 new sections. News section, Cheats and Tips and THE POWER UP SECTION. The last section will probably appear later on. It will show you how to become VERY POWERFUL VERY QUICKLY. He he. Sorry, all these things have been postponed because of Website. _______________________________________ Standard RPG Procedures _______________________________________ Here are tips that you can use to get through Star Ocean 1. At the beginning, when you get to control Ratix (the hero) Go outside the town and start leveling up. If you can reach Level 10! (Which I did) You will have lots of Vol. (money) Which means that you will be super strong. This will give you a huge headstart in the game. REMEMBER: All experience is shared. 2. Fight until all the enemies in the area do 0 damage to you. Then add 1 or 2 levels on top of it. This way, you should always be strong enough to beat the bosses. 3. Save all your berries. You'll need them later. Especial try to keep the steaks. 4. Always save. You never know what's around the corner. 5. Just because armour is stronger, doesn't mean its better. 6. If a character says 'do you know it', say no unless you actually know what they are talking about. If you say you know, they won't tell you, AT ALL. Well, for now, this should give you a good start. _______________________________________ Controls (default) _______________________________________ On map or in town: L button = None R button = None Y button = None X button = Open Menu B button = Back up in menu/with direction button run with dash skill A button = Access something in menu/talk to person In battle: L button = Use Hissatsuwaza (Ratix etc.) First press attack R button = Use Hissatsuwaza (Ratix etc.) First press attack Y button = Move "Anywhere" on screen X button = Open in battle menu (Tactics, Change, Spell (Jumon)) B button = Cancel A button = Attack _______________________________________ Battle System _______________________________________ Star Ocean's battle system is different from others. While most RPG's today use the 'ATB meter' (active time bar) Star Ocean uses something totally different. The 'FMAB' (full motion active battle) has real time battle (accept for menu's) To make it clearer, you can attack monsters whenever you want but this also means that the monsters won't wait for your commands. The game doesn't stop there. It simulates a real battlefield. This means that you have to run up to the enemy to attack them. Just like real life. The only exception is people casting magic (Jumon) or people that can use bows. This also opens up new possibilities. you can move behind the enemy doing more damage. You can close up the movement of the enemy and 'sandwich' the enemy doing lots of damage. This of course makes battles very frantic and fast. A random encounter can last as long as 5 seconds! Due to this fact, in battles you can only control one character in battle. The rest are all controlled by the AI. But the great thing is that the AI can sometimes be very smart and in some cases, save your life!!! If you want to control someone else (meaning you get bored of Ratix) You can fight as someone else. In my opinion, this is the best battle system EVER!!! It may be hard at first, but you will get used to it. _______________________________________ A.R System (Approval Rating) _______________________________________ A.R, better known as the Approval rating is the attitude variable. Each character has a separate A.R to another character. For example, Ratix might have a high A.R for Iria but a low one for Cius. This means that he likes Iria but doesn't like Cius much. At first, it might seem pointless to manage these but I will tell you how important they are. Measuring the A.R is a bit hard to do. No, this is not Breath Of Fire 2. There is no meter. Well, to help you, I will show you what are the A.R variables. Through the actions of other characters. This is basically out of Private Actions or through normal choices during the game. To be VERY GENERAL, if you do nice things, the A.R will be higher than normal. Be careful. Nice things can end up turning around and smacking you in the, you know. Say Iria wants a dress (she doesn't as far as I know) and you say she looks fat in it. This might Make her learn a fat attack! (she doesn't) This is just a stupid example but take it seriously. The other and probably the most important way to build you're A.R Is during a battle. Say Iria is getting her a** whooped and she has 10 hp left. You then cure her with an item or kill the enemy that was killing her. Her A.R would hugely increase. But you can say the same thing if you don't help her. Her A.R would decrease for EVERYONE that didn't help her. As far as I know, it is impossible to measure the A.R of the characters, but on a basic note, this is how I think the A.R is if you are not nice or bad. Ratix : Average for everyone. It is slightly higher for Dorn, Milly, Iria and Ashlay. Milly : INCREDIBLY HIGH for Ratix, High for Dorn, Marvel and Ronixis. Dorn : High for Ratix and Milly, slightly higher for Milly. Ronixis: High for Iria, Marvel, and Milly, low for Cius. Iria: High for Ronixis, Ratix, and Cius. Low for Marvel. Cius: High for Fear, Ratix, and Iria. Low for Joshua. Ashlay: High for Ratix, average for everyone else. Joshua: Average for everyone, low for Cius and Marvel. Slightly higher for Ratix and Iria? Marvel: Very high for Joshua, slightly high for Ronixis and Milly. Perisie: Low for everybody except Ratix and Milly, who are higher. Tinek: Low-to-average for everybody except the character who defeats him, which will be significantly higher. Well you have made the A.R higher for everyone. You are wondering what the big pay-off is then. Well the first one is that they will Be nice to you. But the pay-off is more in the battle sense. Party's that are nicer to each other fight better than parties that hate each other. Parties that are nicer will cure each other more than parties that don't. anyway, in battles, if a person that has an high A.R to another character that has an equally high A.R dies, the person will shout in something like "I WILL KILL YOU" and have an Anger Explosion... _______________________________________ Anger Explosion!!! _______________________________________ Man, the moment you experience one of these, you will try hacking into your ROM to keep the state there forever. This special state occurs in battles when one of your allies die. For example, if Ratix has a high A.R for Iria, and she dies, he may have an anger explosion Ratix will turn red and scream out something like "I'M GONNA KILL YOU!!!" OR "YOU'LL REGRET THAT!" He will be 'on fire' and his attack power and speed will be doubled and if you have a high A.R for that character, you may even have, brace yourself, have triple power and speed! Imagine you done 300 Damage a hit. That's 900 damage! Is that power or WHAT! _______________________________________ About E-mail _______________________________________ Well, just to tell you, I get about 400 e-mails a day (no seriously) and about fifty of them are about Star Ocean.

Foods) Ratix Farrence Age: 19 Clan/Race: Fellpool Country of origin: Clatos Village, in the country of Moore. Class: Kenshi Fight Style: Edarl Swordfighting Height: 174cm Weight: 68kg Favourite food/drink: Hoikoro Information Ratix is the hero of the story. Don't like him? Tough! You HAVE to play with him. Don't worry, his fighting style is unsurpassed. He is from the village of Clatos, and his 'job' is to protect the village with his friends Dorn and Milly. As you will notice through the game, he is the type of person to stand back and stay out of it. you can see this well with Milly, as she is crazily in love with him. To sum him up, he is powerful in battle, cool under pressure and an overall nice guy. Watch out though. He has a very strong sense of judgement and put a friend on the line, and watch the anger explosions!!! Good points High attack and stamina. Can attack repeatedly. Best fighter in game. THE BEST HISSATSUWAZAS (can you say it?) IN THE GAME Heh, Shichiseisouhazan!!! (You're dead) Bad points Erm, Shichiseisouhazan is a big word? Can't think of any flaws. Milly Kiliet Age: 18 Clan/Race: Fellpool Country of origin: Clatos Village, in the country of Moore. Class: Houjutsushi Fight Style: Houjutsushi (Healer) Height: 164cm Weight: 46kg Favourite food/drink: Fruit Parfait Information The best Houjutsushi healer in Clatos, next to her father but she Really doesn't like to study under him. This is why she is so Behind. (her magic, its crap at the beginning) She is totally in Love with Ratix, who doesn't pay attention to her. What do you Have to do to make it clear to him? Anyway, she is very emotional And this serves as her primary motive. She totally relies on her Magic so if she gets attacked, help her quick or watch that HP go... Good points The BEST healer in the game Just like Mint from Tales of Phantasia Has a HUGE amount of MP Bad Points Dies REALLY easy Touch and die. Keep in the back rank. Anyone like her voice? Not a good fighter. Dorn Marto Age: 19 Clan/Race: Fellpool Country of origin: Clatos Village, in the country of Moore. Class: Kenshi Fight Style: Ratix Style Height: 181cm Weight: 75kg Favourite food/drink: Steak 240 Information Dorn is Ratix's best friend and part and he is in the gang. He has excellent weapon skills. Many say he is even better than Ratix His sister who was extremely close to him died in a raid of thieves The same in the beginning) She had a music box and Dorn keeps it close to him as a memento of his dead sister. Even though his sister died, he is a light-hearted person and is very optimistic. The biggest of problems are tiny when Dorn is around. Although he pretends not to like Milly (who likes Ratix!) he loves her to bits. He thinks she is more important to him than Ratix. In battle, Dorn Wields a huge longsword (Cloud anyone?) which does huge damage. Good points Despite the size of his weapon, he attacks very quickly with huge Damage HUGE SWORD!!! Bad Points Unless you use this guide, you get him for 10 mins (you can get him Back) No Hissatsuwaza's Ronixis J Kenny Age: 38 Clan/Race: Human Country of origin: Earth Class: Monshoutsukai (don't ask) Fight Style: ??? Height: 179cm Weight: 64kg Favorite food/drink: Matsutake (Mushrooms) Information Ronixis is the leader of the Federation Starship Kalnas. Sounds Star Trek like. He is in the middle of fighting a ship called Rezonia. He Is called to investigate the planet Roak (Ratix and co. homeplanet) No, Ratix is not from Earth. Bet you didn't know that. Milly starts To teach him magic but he hates magic. His wife died of an incurable disease. He doesn't want to think that magic can save Lives. He thinks science can. He has a good range of skills and He uses a bow in battle. What a good battle combination. Good points Wide range of battle spells He has a good bow so he can keep enemies at bay. Decent MP Bad Points Has Millysitus TM If an enemy touches him watch that HP go Careful with elemental enemies. The AI sometimes will cast spells That heals enemies! Iria Silvestolie Age: 23 Clan/Race: Human Country of origin: Earth Class: Kakutouka Fight Style: Jujitsu, Martial Arts Height: 171cm Weight: 48kg Favourite food/drink: Tama no Hikari (alcoholic drink) Information She helps Ronixis on his mission. She is very loyal to him and Even though she doesn't approve of some of his actions, she will Still follow him. She is very more sociable than her captain. In Fact, she loves alcohol! She can sometimes get emotional but Not as much as Milly. Good points Her Hissatsuwaza are quite powerful She has lots of stamina. Bad points Seen how slow she attacks? Careful how you attack. Has few weapons and armour so far as I have seen. Cius Warren Age: 20 Clan/Race: Highlander Country of origin: The country of Astral Class: Kenshi Fight Style: ??? Height: 190cm Weight: 90kg Favourite food/drink: Kokuryuu (A kind of alcohol) Information Cius is the son of the leader of the Astral Army. He lost his mother whom he really, loved, which could explain his lack of self- confidence. When his father talked about handing down his power to Cius, he hated the idea and left to improve his swordsman ship. while Cius is VERY strong and always like to show it, he lacks self confidence which decreases his power. The main purpose of his journey is to build up self confidence and he wants to build up as much as possible. When Ratix meets up with him, Cius is more skilled but Cius sees a lot of potential in Ratix and wants to see how he Improves (just like Ashlay) Cius is a party type of guy and loves To swear, shout and drink to he gets into a fight. Cius wields a huge Two-handed sword to deal out as much damage as possible. Good points One word. POWERHOUSE Learns decent Hissatsuwazas He looks cool with his HUGE sword. (FF7 anybody?) Very funny to watch Bad Points How long does it take to swing that thing!? 10 hours!? Low MP. Save it for boss fights. Erm... not many really. Joshua Jerand Age: 20 Clan/Race: Featherfolk Country of origin: Silvalant Class: Monshoutsukai Fight Style:??? Height: 172cm Weight: 20kg Favourite food/drink:??? (Any help would be mentioned) Information Joshua is part of the Featherfolk race, the winged people that live in the mountains. The Featherfolk are pretty much unheard of accept in Joshua's case. His parents were killed at a young age and his sister was abducted. He managed to survive and a human cared for him until he was strong enough to get revenge. He is searching the world for his abducted sister. Joshua is a quite man and because of the incidents that has happened to him, he hates any kinds of violence. Be warned, if anyone gets in his way, he will do anything to complete his mission and will become quickly angered. Joshua is very weak physically but is good with magic. Joshua is better with offensive magic than healing magic. Good Points Can cast both healing and attacking spells. Can cast EXTENTION High MP so he can cast his spells. Bad Points He's in-between Ronixis and Milly in usefulness. Acts like has got 1 HP. Make sure he doesn't get hit. Watch the elements of enemies. He may cast spells that heal them. Fear Mell Age: Doesn't say, but around 20-25 Clan/Race: Highlander Country of origin: The country of Astral Class: Kishi Fighting Style:??? (Anyone know? It's in jap') Height: Doesn't say Weight: Doesn't say Favourite food/drink: Baked Turban Shell (found a translation) Information Fear is the top level general in the Astral Army. She is very loyal To the leader, Warren (Cius father) You could say that she is his Dog. She is a good childhood friend of Cius and she is very masculine , just like Cius. She is very forceful and always gets what she wants She is angry that Cius left the Astral Army and every time she thinks Of him, she thinks he is a coward. She will fight for her friends, Whatever it takes which makes her a powerful ally. She fights in a ??? (Please help, e-mail plz) style which means that she can use Raven Swords boomerang like daggers. Good Points In my opinion, the third best fighter in the game, next to Cius/Dorn Can equip decent armour High HP Bad Points Doesn't have good Hissatsuwazas That's about it. A top class fighter Marvel Frozen Age: Unknown (About 20) Clan/Race: Unknown Country of origin: Unknown Class: Ancient Master Fighting Style: ??? Height: Doesn't say Weight: Doesn't say Favourite food/drink: Wine Information There is always one character who's past is unknown. No matter what RPG. Her past is full of mystery and it's up to you to find out. Her quest is to find the mercenary "Shinku no Tate" and succesfully Kill s/he (I have NO idea yet) who killed her parents and older Brother. As I said before, nothing is known about her past (until you complete the game) Something about Joshua bothers her and thinks something is wrong with him. She fights with a magical weapon called the Raven Orb that flies around her body, giving her imaginable strength. Good Points Can use magic in physical attacks Very powerful Hissatsuwazas Bad Points Not one of the best fighters Has the lowest defence for a fighter character Perisie Age: Probably around 10-12.

She has a very good musical Sense and you first see her playing on the Ocarina (Zelda, remember) She fell prisoner to the Velcants and has spent a good deal of her Life in a dungeon. She has very bad social skills but they get Better as you go through the game. She fights in the Neko Kakutou Style, she transforms into a cat like form even more during battle And uses claws and her feet to fight. She can even summon cats Into battle! Good Points Unless you have never seen a cat before, they are lighting fast and She gets these abilities to use in battles. She is so fast she can Get right across the screen in about 2 seconds and can dodge attacks Too. The longest good thing I have ever said Don't wanna sound like a freak but she is really cute and says some Nice things... Bad Points Can't equip a lot of armour so this means she will take quite a bit Of damage. Ashlay Barnbelt Age: Probably in his late 50s or early 60s. Clan/Race: Highlander Country of origin: Astral Class: Kenshi Fighting Style: Mastered Edarl Swordfighting Height: Doesn't say Weight: Doesn't say Favourite food/drink: Sensou Jelly Information Ashlay is an old war hero from the Great War of Makai. He has Mastered the Edarl Swordfighting skill and he used to be the Best fighter in the Astral Army. He thinks it is an art to defeat Enemies, not a just slaying. He is trying to promote 'the true Way of fighting' but know one listens. He says that they fight In a bloodthirstiness manner. They don't see the real honour Of killing someone in style. When he sees Ratix using a similar Style of Edarl Swordfighting only a bit varied, he sees great Potential in him so he wants to see how he turns out. Ashlay Is happy to see Ratix who likes the art of the fighting. He Can't use shields since his left arm was damaged in battle. Good Points Can use almost all the techniques Ratix can use Starts out EXTREMLY POWERFUL HAS A HUGE AMOUNT OF HP Bad Points Very slow to attack because if his age and his stamina Has next to nothing MP Will eventually be suppressed Tinek Arukena Age: Probably around 15-16 Clan/Race: Lycanthrope Country of origin: ???

He is very calm and after being beaten by Ratix, he wants to join him to find out how powerful Ratix can get (which is INSANELY powerful) He is so focused that he rarely gets into conversations and is much of a loner. In battle he uses staves and long poles. Good Points Has a huge attack range Is very calm Bad Points Being calm, he rarely gets Anger Explosions Can't equip good armour _______________________________________ FAQ _______________________________________ In progress _______________________________________ Walkthrough _______________________________________ Please note that I'm working heavily on this section.

Dorn: Hey, what do you think about Milly? Ratix: Hmm...what do you mean? Dorn:This is just between friends but...she's really a ditzy airhead, is a tomboy... Dorn: And to top that, she's not very smart, really annoying... Milly: Who are you talking about!? Dorn: Er....I... Milly: If you have the leisure to say that get to work! Dorn: But there's nothing to do! Milly: Just do a patrol around time. Hey, I'll even come along too. Dorn: I guess I don't have a choice. Milly: OK, let's go patrol. [Outside] Ratix: What the--!!? Man: Uwaaa....it's the thieves! Girl: Kyaaa! Dorn: An enemy!* Milly: Unforgivable!* Ratix: Let's go!* Dorn: Let's kick their butts! [Fight] Ratix: Let's go!* [Fight] Thief Bitts: They're tougher than we thought, aren't they? Oyabun Vayard: Pathetic! Rubbed out by a bunch of fucking kids! I'll... Ratix: We're not kids! We're the guardians of this town! Dorn: Pathetically weak leaders shouldn't talk like that! Milly: Right! You weaklings! Vayard: Wh, wh, what did you say!? Bitts: Let's get 'em boss! [Fight] Townsman: Wow, thanks. Ratix: Just doing our jobs. Milly: Oh, aren't you cool? That night... [In Ratix's room] Ratix's mother: Here's your tea. Make yourselves at home. Dorn: Geez, today's thieves were so easy! Milly: What are you saying, it was pretty dangerous! Milly: Ratix, what's the matter? You don't look happy. Mother: He's been like that a lot lately. Dorn: See you. Ratix: Yeah. Milly: Show me a happy face tomorrow, Rati. Milly: Sorry to be a bother. Mother: Come again. [Ratix goes to bed] Ratix: There's nothing to do....because it's peaceful, huh... [The next morning] Mother: Shouldn't you be going to work yet? Mother: Hey you, wake up! [At Patroller's HQ] Milly: Ratix, you're late again. Dorn's already inside. Dorn: You're late, Rati. Let's go inside Ratix: Wha's the matter? Elder: Oh, Rati. We have a problem. Read this. It's this letter... Letter: Please, send help. In Cool Village there has been an outbreak of a strange disease. There is much suffering. ---Elder of Cool Milly: What do we do? Dorn: We go help them, of course! Milly: If we use the herbs that grow on Mt. Metox... ???: Wait! Milly: Daddy! Elder: Maltos-san, will you go? Maltos: Yes, it's my job. If it's a strange disease, it will probably be no problem. Elder: If Clatos' best Houjutsushi is going I'm relieved. Maltos: I'll be back soon, so don't go to a dangerous place like Mt. Metox. Elder: OK, I'll leave it to you. Dorn: We'll let you know if anything comes up. [That night] Dorn: Hey you two, cheer up. I understand how Milly feels...but you're really strange, Rati....tell us what's the matter. Rati: ....... Two days later [Voices from outside Ratix's house] ???: Yesterday Daddy didn't come back. I'm going after him. ???: Dont do that, he said he'd call us if he needed us. ???: But....I can't wait any longer! [Ratix goes outside. A carrier pigeon brings a message to Dorn] Milly: Rati.... Milly: What does it say? Note: Cool's strange disease is incredibly contagious. Houjutsu doesn't work at all. Furthermore, I've been infected. It's not transmitted through the air, but you can be infected just by touching a sick man's shoulder. The disease stays dormant about 1-2 hours. Once it starts in less than 3 days the infected one's body completely becomes stone. Cool is already finished. Don't come near. Maltos Kirit. [Milly runs away] Dorn: Milly, Wait! Dorn: She's gotta be worrying about her dad and is going to Cool! Let's hurry. [After first fight outside of town] Ratix: What's the matter, Dorn? Dorn: No, it's nothing.... [At Cool] Dorn: It's Milly, follow her! [At the house where Milly and her father are] Maltos: Don't come any nearer! Maltos: .....You can't touch me. Milly: Daddy.... Maltos: You can't help me any more. Milly: So I can't be with you and hold your hand at a time like this? ....it's not fair.... Maltos: Rati-kun, Dorn-kun....please take my daughter back to the village. Dorn: Milly....let's go... Maltos: Milly!! [Milly is alone back at Clatos] Milly: Sorry, everyone... ???: Wait. Milly: ....Dorn.... Dorn: Were you going to go alone? Milly: .... Dorn: You're going to get the medicine on top of Mt. Metox, right? I can tell whatever you're thinking. You were going to go somewhere that dangerous alone....!! Milly: Sorry... Dorn: ....Bring your head up.... Milly: Huh? Dorn: Cheer up....as long as we get that medicine, your dad will certainly get better, right? Milly: ....yeah...but... Dorn: I hate seeing your sad face more than anything else in the world...!! Milly: Dorn? Dorn: I...I... Dorn: !!!! [Dorn falls to the ground] Dorn: Ooh... Milly: Dorn, what's wrong? Are you OK?! Dorn: Stay away!! Uh, no, it's nothing... Milly: But....Ah, hold on, I'll get someone!! [Milly runs to Ratix's house] Milly: Rati! Dorn is...!! Dorn: ...Ouch... Dorn: Crap....whenever there's trouble, her thoughts go straight to Rati....what's with that.... [In Ratix's house] Milly: Rati!! Dorn is...!! Rati: Let's hurry!! [Outside, with Dorn] Milly: Are you OK? Dorn: Huh? What are you talking about? Milly: But, you were just...!!! Dorn: Didn't I say it was nothing? Don't worry about it, it was just a cramp. More importantly, Rati, Let's go get the medicine from Mt. Metox. We have to save Milly's dad. Rati: Yeah. It's north of Cool.... Dorn: Right. There there are Feldworms, so we have to be careful. [At the mountain] Dorn: There are Feldworms here, so let's be careful. Milly: They'll stick their eggs on you if they touch you. Rati: And it's serious trouble if those eggs hatch. [Feldworm Fight] Dorn: You OK? Milly: Yes. Rati: Be sure to get rid of the Feldworm Eggs. Milly: Right, we don't want them hatching on us. Rati: Yeah. [Feldworm Fight] Milly: You OK? Dorn: Don't touch me!! Milly: What's with that attitude, I'm just worrying about you. Dorn: No, it's nothing so don't worry... Ratix: It can't be that you....!!! Dorn: ....It looks that when I touched the pigeon I got infected. Milly: Oh no.... Rati: You'd better go back home. Dorn: No, the transformation hasn't started yet so I'm OK. Milly: But... Dorn: I'm OK!!!! [At the top of the mountain] Milly: If we bring that flower back... [Two people beam down in front of the herb] Man: There shouldn't have been anyone here... Woman: When we used the scanners 30 minutes ago, there was none. Man: Well, since they've seen us, we have no choice. Let's have them help us. Rati: Who are you!!? Milly: Are you here to take the medicine? Man: To say that there's no need to be afraid....wouldn't do any good, would it. Man: My name is Ronixis J. Kenny. How should I begin... Dorn: Where did you come from? [Iria starts to approach] Milly: Stay back! Woman: My name is Iria Silvestory. I'll explain in the Captain's place. Iria: I'll let you know from the start though that we are your allies. Milly: Really? Dorn: No way! There's no way suspicious guys like these would be our allies! Rati: ...We're just here to get the medical herb. Iria: If you want to cure a disease, we've got something better than medical herbs. Rati: Who are you...? Iria: Do you feel like talking yet? Rati: As long as it's just talking... Iria: It would be difficult for you to believe this, but we have come from far far away to save you. Rati: If that's the case, then why didn't you come to help us earlier? Iria: We are bound by something called the "Interplanetary Protection Treaty" which prevents us from contacting still-developing people. Rati: Still-developing...? Iria: We've come from over the sky...from another planet. This is an exception. Rati: From above the sky? Another planet? Iria: Are you gods? Iria: We're not gods, were people just like you. [Iria turns around] Iria: Althogh we don't have tails. Milly: Oh, she's right! Iria: Speaking of this, our enemy Rezonia broke the Interplanetary Protection Treaty, and fired a biological weapon on this planet designed to trigger a formerly dormant contagious disease. Rati: So it's becasue of these Rezonia guys that everyone's turning to stone? Iria: That's correct. Milly: Good god...Unforgivable... Iria: We have come to analyze the virus. Ronixis: So, like I said, we came to help you. In a way that you couldn't imagine. Milly: I can't believe it, but if you can cure the disease... Ratix: I don't really believe you either, but if you can heal our friend here... Iria: I don't know for sure if we can cure it or not, but if you come with us, and we can make a vaccine... Rati: Go above the sky? Ronixis: You could say that. Ronixis: However, if you come with us, you probably will never be able to return to this planet again, because of that Interplanetary Protection Treaty we talked about earlier. If you want we can still treat your meeting us like it was just some dream. Dorn: I'm going with these people. If I stay here I'm just going to turn to stone anyway. Milly: I can't decide whether to leave my father and everyone forever, or to leave Dorn forever... Ratix: Milly, Let's go with Dorn. If we stay here, it's a shame, but we can't do anything. Ratix: Not being to see everyone in Clatos again is sad, but more importantly I want to save them! Iria: I guess it looks like you've decided. OK then, let's go. Iria: Close your eyes for a bit. Milly: Huh? [Beam me up, Scotty...] Milly: Kyaaaa... Milly: aaaaa..... Milly What was that?! Ratix: Where the hell are we?! Ronixis: This is our ship. Milly: You really are gods, aren't you? Iria: We're not gods. We're just a little more advanced than you. Someday your people will attain this power too. Rati: .... Ronixis: Well then, le'ts bring your friend straight to the Medical Center. [En route to the Medical Center] Rati: The floor is moving! Milly: Just like that door opened on its own! Ratix: Incredible...t's all stuff I've never seen before! Ronixis: Come to think of it, we don't know your names yet. Ratix: I'm Ratix Ferrence. Milly: I'm Milly Kirit. Dorn: ....Dorn...Malto... Iria: Captain, his condition is worsening. Ronixis: Yes, let's hurry. [At the Medical Center] Rati: What is this? Iria: You must be surprised, but this is our medical center. Ronixis: Doctor, I leave him to you. Doctor: Yes, sir. Ronixis: Well then, there's no point for you two to stay here. Why don't you have a look around the ship? Iria: Captain, that would violate the Protection Treaty. Ronixis: Isn't that irrelevant now? I'm going to the bridge. You guide them around. Iria: Ah, Captain! Geez! [At the elevator room] Iria: The circular floors you see are elevator pods. Ratix: Elevator Pods? Iria: Using this the floor will move. To the left is the bridge, and to the right is the rest of the ship. [Wander around, explore the Holodeck, "Refresh room," the bridge, etc. At the bottom floor:] Iria: This is Calnas' entry point. Ronixis: Iria, Bring Rati and Milly to the Medical Center. I'm going there too. Iria: Understood. Ratix: Where did that voice just come from? Iria: We use something called a Communicator to talk to people who are far away. It would appear that the doctor is calling us. Milly: Is he all better? Iria: I don't know. [At the Medical Center] Milly: How is it? Ronixis: Don't be in such a hurry. The Doctor will explain everything. Milly: All right... Doctor: *clears throat* Doctor: Well, according to our examination, we determined the cause of the disease, and undertand its properties. However, curing the disease is impossible by Earth's modern doctors. Milly: Don't you have all this incredible power! Have you searched carefully? Come on! Doctor: Miss, that power is what allows us to know when we are outclassed. Doctor: ....the disease is transforming his body at an alarming rate. No matter what vaccine we made it would soon have no effect. However....that doesn't mean there's no chance. By looking at the structure of this virus, we can see that is a parasitic virus. Therefore, if we find the first infected being, in other words the host, and by looking at his blood composition, we can create a cure. Milly: Can you save him? [speaks in polite form] No, I mean, can you save him? Doctor: Yes. Rati: But in 2 or 3 hours he'll transform. We have no time to search for that host. Doctor: It sounds strange, but even if transformed his life signs will remain in stasis. Therefore if we have a cure, he will return to normal. Ratix/Milly: ??? Doctor: You don't need to understand the details. Basically, once he changes to stone we can return him to normal. Ronixis: But it's not that easy. Rezonia is our enemy and is not likely to tell us the first host. Iria: That's right. But what confuses me the most is, why did they fire that biological weapon at Roak in the first place? Rati: Roak? Ronixis: That's the name we gave your planet. As Iria says, there's no indication of why Rezonia wants to turn the Roakians into stone. [Alarm goes off] Speaker: Unknown life form spotted on Transporter Deck! Repeat... Iria: Unknown life form? Ronixis: That's impossible. Let's go. [To deck] Crewman: Captain, this is the creature. Ronixis: What the hell is this? Ratix: Feldworms! Ronixis: What is that!? Ratix: It looks we got their eggs on us in the mountain after all. Iria: If that's the case, then why didn't the scanners pick it up? Ronixis: I don't know. We'd better get rid of these things. Crewman: But the phasers don't work on them! Ronixis: What?! That's impossible! Rati: Leave this to us. Ronixis: Will you be OK? Rati: Let's go Milly! [Fight] Ronixis: Are you all right? Rati: Yes. This is all of them, isn't it? Iria: Look out! [A previously Hidden Feldworm runs out and attacks Ratix] Rati: Ow! Rati: Damn, there were still some left... [Ratix slashes the Feldworm, killing it instantly] Milly: Are you OK? Rati: Yeah, it's only a light wound. Ronixis: It disappeared... Rati: Huh? Ronixis: When it attacked you, it disappeared. I can't even see its body. Milly: Huh? It's here...right here. Ronixis: What??? Iria: So, you can see it... Iria: As soon as your blood spilled on it it disappeared. Let's go to the medical center. Ronixis: I leave the rest to you. [Medical Center] Iria: Doctor, is there something that makes the Roakians' bodies different from Earthlings and other similar humanoid races? Doctor: Oh yes. Internal organs, muscles, and nervous system and all other systems are exactly the same as Earthlings, but there is one thing that is very different. Iria: It's their blood, isn't it? Doctor: Yes. Their blood composition differs greatly from Earthlings. There are lots of differences, but the easiest differences to understand is the hemoglobin which carries oxygen in the blood has high amounts of copper. Ronixis: What is it you're getting at, Iria? Iria: It's just a possibilty, but by turning Roakians into stone, could there be something they could gain? That would explain why they fired the biological weapon at Roak. Ronixis: What would you think? Iria: For example, their blood is an unknown substance... Ronixis: You can't mean.....a weapon? Iria: It's possible. Furthermore, it also can't be picked up by radar. Milly: Then they're killing us to make a weapon!? Iria: We don't know for sure yet. Rati: But, that would be an explanation. Ronixis: Anyway, if tha'ts the case, then some of the petrified Roakians would have disappeared. Let's check that out. I'm going to the bridge. Iria: Doctor, try to computer simulate a weapon made from the material from the transformational properties of that blood. Doctor: There are tens of thousands of combinations! Iria: All we can do is try. Doctor: Very well. [Ratix and Milly are alone in the Medical Center] Rati: I'm thinking that this is all because I wanted something interesting to happen... Milly: What are you talking about? It doesn't have anything to do with that. Ratix: But... Milly: If I only had more power... [Doctor enters] Doctor: The Captain wants you to come to the bridge. You can use the left elevator. Ratix. OK. Milly: I wonder what it is? Ratix: Who knows? [The bridge] Ronixis: Ah, you're here. Listen to what we've found from Iria. Iria: Comparing the population and number of human statues from before, there are 20 million people missing. How did they get them away without our finding them? Ratix: Then, it really is... Iria: There's no saying for certain that it's a weapon. Ronixis: But I can't think it would be for any good purpose. Ronixis: Sorry. By the way, we are to head to Earth. We're going to try to get a way to get Rezonia to give us the host. I'd like to have you report to the rest, so come with us. Doctor: Captain, Dorn-kun's condition is... Ronixis: I'll be right there. Milly: I'm going too. Doctor: His major systems have begun to transform. It's a dangerous state. Ratix: Dorn...!! Dorn: ....Captain.....I have a re..request. Ronixis: What? Dorn: ....at least...I want to die at home... Ronixis: Die....you're just going to sleep for a little while. Dorn: But if you can't get the blood... Ronixis: ...... Dorn: Please. Ronixis: ....All right. Ronixis: Prepare the transporter. Doctor: Yes sir. Milly: Let us come with Dorn. Ronixis: You two... Ratix: We promise to come back. Ronixis: Very well. Just to make sure, I'll have Iria go with you. Ratix, Milly: Thank you. Ronixis: Doctor, beam Dorn directly into his bed. Doctor: Understood. Ronixis: Iria, I'm counting on you. Iria: Yes, captain. [Dorn's house] Dorn: To tell the truth, there's something I wanted to give you before I die. Milly: What are you talking about, you're just going to sleep for a while. Dorn: Bring me that music box from on top of the desk. [Ratix picks it up] Dorn: Give it to Milly. Milly: This was your sisters...I can't take it. Dorn: Please take it... Dorn: My sister gave me th... [Dorn turns to stone. Milly falls to the ground crying. Ratix goes up to the now-petrified Dorn on the bed] Ratix: Don't worry. I'll save you for sure. Iria: It's a shame, but let's go. To save him. Ratix: Right. [At the bridge, later] Ronixis: Now we're going to a planet called Earth. We've prepared a room for you so you can rest there. Ratix: Yes, thank you very much. Engineer: Sector Alpha's point 001 Mark 269, Warp 6. Ratix: Milly, look at this, it's pretty. Milly: It's beautiful....like an ocean of stars.... Ronixis: From here, we're going to the Federal Center on Earth. Ratix: Something's following us! Milly: What's THAT!? Iria: Where? What are you looking at? [Starship Materializes] Ronixis: What the? It just appeared out of nowhere!! Some kind of space distorter? Scientist: No, it seems different! Beforehand there were no gravity waves. Ratix: I TOLD you something was coming! Iria: Come to think of it, you two could see it?! Iria: An unseeable substance!! Ronixis: That ship is?! Communications chief: Captian! They're sending us a message!! Ronixis: Play it! Message: We have come from Rezonia. We have no intention of fighting. Repeat... [Meeting room] Admiral: So then, you want to make a truce with us? Rezonia emmisary: Yes. Rezonia: We didn't even want to fight Earth in the first place. Admiral: So it's true that there was a 3rd party behind Rezonia... Ronixis: A third party?! Rezonia: Yes. It was coercion. They have fantastic technology, and they were responsible for the destruction of Planet Ise half a year ago. Rezonia: We don't know why. But they were the ones who gave us the virus and the new material technology. Admiral: So that's it. I understand most of it. Ronixis: The biological weapon fired upon Roak...In other words, a Vaccine for the virus or the host....we'd like you to give it to us. Rezonia: That's impossible. Rezonia: Neither the host nor a vaccine exists any more. So, it's a shame about Planet Roak, but.... Milly: I can't believe it...!! Rezonia: We know pretty much where the virus came from, but that information won't do any good now... Admiral: Well, I guess there's nothing we can do. Seeing as how there's no way, I guess we'll have to give up on rescuing Roak... Ratix: What!! You're going to just abandon us!!? Iria: Ratix, settle down!! Ratix: Shit! [Coffee shop] Ratix: Even though we came all this way to save everyone... Milly: What on earth will we do now? Iria: To think that the virus was engineered on Roak 300 years ago...So getting a vaccine is impossible...The federation has officially abandoned the Roak rescue mission. All I can do is apologize. I'm really sorry. Ronixis: It's not all that impossible, is it... Ronixis: It's just that the chance is extremly slim...right? Iria: Planet....Stream...!! Iria: I was wondering what you were saying...that's impossible! Ronixis: Well, I can do something about getting into the ship. Iria: But...!! Milly: There's still a way? Then....Please!! [At the Ship] Guard: Captian, I haven't heard any orders to depart, but? Ronixis: I was given them. Don't worry. Let us by. Guard: Yessir! Ronixis: We haven't got time to dally. Let's get to the bridge before the idiot guards find us. [Bridge] Iria: Everything's OK. We can depart soon. Ronixis: OK, Close the entrance hatch. Ratix: Will just the two of you be OK? Ronixis: Yeah, cause we've got the Computer. Ratix: Computer? Ronixis: Hm...it's difficult to explain, but it's a machine that helps out in various ways. Ronixis: Well then, let's launch... Iria: But if we go to Planet Stream we'll get court-martialed! Ronixis: If we screw up it's hard labor for the rest of our lives. But there's no turning back now. Iria: I'm so unlucky to have gotten stuck with a superior like you... Milly: ....Sorry.... Iria: You don't need to apologize. It's unlucky...or even if I say so, I'm not reluctant to go there. Iria: I'll follow you, Captain. So you better lead me the right way, OK? Ronix: Mm.... Ratix: By the way, what exactly IS Planet Stream? Iria: Even we aren't quite sure. Ronixis: It's someplace we found in deepspace exploration. Iria: Stream was a place that is said to have had fantastic technology long before we started to explore space. But we don't really know anything about it. Ratix: What's there? Ronixis: A Time Gate. We'll use it and transport to Roak in the past. Iria: We don't yet understand the structure of the gate, so it's off limits to go to. Iria: We'll be within orbit of Roak very soon. Ronix: Right. Iria: (A living door....Will the guardian of the Time Gate accept us?) [On Stream] Ronixis: According to the Rezonian emissary, the mysterious 3rd party went to Roak in order to get the virus. Iria: If you calculate from today it was hundreds of years ago. Ronixis: Right. They've got to have technology far beyond what we can even think of. We'll transport to Roak before they get there and get the virus ourselves. Iria: However, there is the problem of whether or not the door will accept us... Ronixis: Gate! Listen to our wish! Please let us go to Roak 300 years in the past!! ???: I am ther Guardian of the gate. Seeing your reason, you apparently wish to save everybody. Guardian: Very well. Throw away your weapons and communications devices. Then I shall let you enter a different world. So I shall open the gate... Ronixis: All right! Iria: This must be proof that we don't intend to change the flow of history or commit some crime. Ronixis: OK, let's enter. [Ronixis and Milly jump into the void, and Iria trips. Ratix goes to help her, and then they jump into the portal.] ....Dorn, Just you wait....I'll save you... And so the adventure begins! This is the format that I write in _______________________________________ Chapter Name/Town/Cave - What I have called the chapter Items - What items you can find Level - My suggested level I don't include the suggested party because you will find your favourite party yourself. You're 'best' party might not be my 'best' party. Well, we are ready to go _______________________________________ _______________________________________ Our hero awakes, different time Items - Blackberry, Flare Bomb, Resurrect Bottle, Blueberry x 2, Necklace, Zebori x2, Ruby, 200V Level - 10 _______________________________________ Ratix wakes up on a beach next to Iria, and wakes her up. She looks Around and doesn't see the others. She tells Ratix that because You stopped and helped me, we went in at different times and we must Have been separated. Noticed it night? As you get closer to Clatos Village, it turns into daylight. Details, details... When you reach Clatos, and you are outside the entrance, she will realise that she Stands out of the crowd (she's from the future, remember?) She will Give you two choices. (1) I will find some for you (2) Don't worry, it's no big deal I would think that if you answered (1), you're AR to Iria would go Up, and if you answered (2), it would be slightly lower. I would Advise you to choose (1). It doesn't really matter, since you have to Find clothes anyway. You see Ratix and Iria laughing? They are Imagining Ronixis and Milly being in the same situation... _______________________________________ Clatos Village Items - Spectacles, 420V, Blackberry, Talisman Level - 12 _______________________________________ In progress _______________________________________ Special Moves (Ougi's) _______________________________________ I have used Ian Kelly's guide to help me (I missed some) Souryuu "Sei" Raizan This technique is a much more powerful version of the Shoureiha; the user uses his or her sword to create a large dragon of blue energy at the enemies to inflict massive damage. Who uses: Rati: Shisei Ougi Technique [Shoureiha], MP 12 Ashlay: LV 32, MP 16 Suzaku "Shou" Gekiha With this technique, the user taps the power of the Suzaku (a legendary bird)and charges it to his sword. There are three different forms of this technique; one is a beefed-up version of the Shouretsuha, where the bird of energy travels in a circular motion around the user to create a wave of force (Rati), one that is in the form of a projectile, and one where the user jumps into the air, turns into a Suzaku, and swoops down on the enemy. (Iria) All three have devastating potential. Who uses: Rati: Shisei Ougi Technique [Shouretsuha], MP 14 Iria: Shisei Ougi Technique [Ryuuseishou], MP 11 Ashlay: LV 36, MP 19 Shichiseiraimeiken Like the Raimeiken, this technique charges the user's sword with a powerful bolt of lightning. There are several forms of this technique ;one which causes a double hit of lightning of extremely destructive force (Rati), or one that fires a ball of electricity in addition to the normal strike (Ashlay.) Who uses: Rati: Shichisei Ougi Technique [Raimeiken], MP 15 Cius: Shichisei Ougi Technique [Raimeiken] Ashlay: Shichisei Ougi Technique [Raimeiken], MP 23 Shichiseisouhazan This legendary technique charges an intensely powerful energy into the user's sword as he jumps up in the air to do a double-powered strike many times more powerful than a normal Souhazan. Some users of this technique will also fire incredibly damaging plasma waves upon landing in addition to the strike. (Rati) Who uses: Ratix: Shichisei Ougi Technique [Souhazan], MP 27 Cius: Shichisei Ougi Technique [Souhazan], MP 25 Ashlay: Shichisei Ougi Technique [Souhazan] Kokuryuutenraiha One who wishes to use this technique must have the ultimate control of the Dragon before they are able to use it. The user throws his sword in the air and summons a powerful three-headed dragon who breathes a blast of dark force on all the wielder's enemies to do strong darkness-based damage. Who uses: Ratix: Kouryuu Ougi Technique [Kouryuuha], MP 30 Hiryuutenraiha Hiryuutenraiha is another of the three legendary techniques taught by the Kouryuu Ougi, and only the most powerful swordsmen can master it. Its form is identical to that of the Kokuryuutenraiha, except the user summons a three-headed dragon that breathes fire upon all enemies to do fire damage. Who uses: Ratix: Kouryuu Ougi Technique [Suzaku "Shou" Gekiha], MP 30 Souryuutenraiha The final of the three techniques of the Kouryuu Ougi, this technique Is exactly like the other two in form, but the dragon summoned with this technique breathes a cold blast of freezing breath to do ice damage to all enemies facing the user. Who uses: Ratix: Kouryuu Ougi Technique [Souryuu "Sei" Raizan], MP 30 Souryuu "Sei" Raiha This technique is identical to that of the Souryuu "Sei" Raizan, Except that the dragon wave of force is not created by the user's sword but by a ki explosion from the user's palms Who uses: Iria: Shisei Ougi Technique [Kikoushou], MP 9 Genbu "Ha" Ouken: The user of this technique executes a Kikoushuu, but at the same time, summons a Genbu to come at the target from the opposite direction, sandwiching it between two attacks to do heavy damage. Who uses: Iria: Shisei Ougi Technique [Kikoushuu], MP15 Byakko "Kou" Hadan This technique is a powered-up version of Renkiken; the user turns him or herself into a Byakko and charges at the enemy, doing a double headbutt. Who uses: Iria: Shisei Ougi Technique [Renkiken], MP 12 Oukahakkeshou With this technique, Iria sends out a flurry of punches towards the enemy, stunning them and hitting them multiple times for very high damage. Iria: Hakkeshou Ougi Technique [Genbu "Ha" Ouken], MP 18 Uraoukasakkou This more powerful version of Oukahakkeshou is similar in that the user attacks with a flurry of punches, but in addition the flurry of punches is followed up by a slicing kick with both legs. Iria: Uraouka Ougi Technique [Oukahakkeshou], MP 23 Genbushourai: The user of this technique slashes his sword onto the ground, summoning a Genbu, a legendary warrior spirit, and creates a huge explosion that does heavy damage to enemies in a wide range. Who uses: Cius: Shisei Ougi Technique [Shouretsuha], MP 16 Byakkoshourai: The Byakkoshourai is a technique that turns the user into the Byakko, A legendary white tiger, and fires a series of powerful energy bolts from his mouth at the enemies. Who uses: Cius: Shisei Ougi Technique [Shoureiha], MP 18 Souryuushourai: This technique is similar to the Souryuu "Sei" Raizan in that the user summons the blue dragon Souryuu to fly at the enemy to do damage; however, rather than being created through the force of the sword, the blue dragon in this technique is born from the energy bolt created by the user's Senkouken. Who uses: Cius: Shisei Ougi Technique [Senkouken], MP 14 Southern Cross With this technique, Marvel summons the power of the cross constellation to attack all enemies facing her. Marvel: Shichisei Ougi Technique [Flare Orb], MP 16 Seven Star This technique summons the power of the seven stars of the Shichisei Ougi. With it, Marvel creates a linking set of seven stars which damages all enemies fighting the party. Marvel: Shichisei Ougi Technique [Hail Orb], MP 19 Galaxy This technique is Marvel's most powerful that utilises that of the Shichisei Ougi's star power; Marvel summons the power of the universe to create a small rift that opens a doorway to a meteor shower, which attacks all enemies. Marvel: Shichisei Ougi Technique [Thunder Orb], MP 26 Sylvan Shot: With this technique, Fear throws a flurry of her Raven Swords at the enemy in a straight line, hitting them multiple times for lots of damage. Fear: Bushin Ougi Technique [3 Way], MP23 Unholy terror Fear jumps high up in the air, and fires four energy blasts from her hands down at her target. Fear: Bushin Ougi Technique [Galaxy God Breath], MP 29 Victory Terror This technique is essentially the same as Unholy Terror, except that the blasts that Fear fires are more powerful. Fear: Bushin Ougi Technique [Unholy Terror[, MP 31 Magical Dance For a massive trade-off in MP, Perisie summons a host of witch-cats to regenerate the party's MP. Perisie: Neko Ougi Technique [Prismic Dance], MP 60 Jump-Punch-Somersault (JP Somersault) Perisie jumps at her target, striking down with her claw, follows up with a crouching slash, and finishes by doing a flip-kick in mid-air. Perisie: Neko Ougi Technique [Nerichagi], MP 18 Dream Combo With this technique, Perisie pulls out a gigantic hammer and starts pounding on her target, stunning it and doing as many as 20+ hits. Perisie: Neko Ougi Technique [Ei! Yaa! Toh!], MP 28 Gurensenpuukon This technique is essentially the same as Tinek's Senpuukon, except that Tinek spins around his staff/spear so fast that his feet start blazing with fire, doing additional fire damage to any enemies falling within range. Tinek: Hakkeshou Ougi Technique [Senpuukon], MP 10 Shippuu Hariken This is Tinek's answer to Ratix's Shichiseisouhazan: he does a double Strike with his staff/spear (albeit standing rather than jumping) and fires a plasma beam out at his target. Tinek: Hakkeshou Ougi Technique [Shippuukon], MP 14 Oukahakkeshou Tinek's incarnation of Oukahakkeshou is different than Iria's; it is essentially the same as a Kikoushou, only much more powerful, and creates an explosion of cherry blossoms when it connects with its target. Tinek: Hakkeshou Ougi Technique [Haoushippuukon], MP 19 Shichiseiranbu Possibly Tinek's most powerful technique, with Shichiseiranbu, Tinek Jumps towards his target, slashing his staff/spear down towards the Enemy with blinding speed to hit multiple times for lots of damage. Tinek: Shichisei Ougi Technique [Oukahakkeshou], MP 23 _______________________________________ Skill Points _______________________________________ In Progress _______________________________________ Magic List _______________________________________ Heal This spell heals one character slightly. It doesn't heal much, but it comes in handy, especially towards the beginning of the game when you have few spellcasters. MP 3 Who uses: Milly: Level 2 Joshua: Level NA Deep Mist This spell encases all of the enemies in a deep mist, obscuring their vision and making it more difficult for them to hit their targets. MP 2 Who uses: Milly: Level 4 Press This spell drops a big weight on the target to do damage. If there are other enemies near the target, they will get hit too. MP 5 Who uses: Milly: Level 6 Antidote This spell cures one character of poison. MP 5 Who uses: Milly: Level 8 Silence This spell prevents all enemies facing the caster from casting spells. MP 7 Who uses: Milly: Level 10 Cure All This spell is like "Heal," except it affects all characters. Again, it doesn't heal much damage, but is useful at the beginning of your journey. MP 10 Who uses: Milly: Level 13 Protection This spell is an assist spell that increases the entire party's defense level. It is very useful, especially towards the end of the game when the monsters dish out unbelievable amounts of damage. MP 18 Who uses: Milly: Level 13 Joshua: Level NA Acid Rain This spell reduces the attack strength of all the enemies facing the character. Again, this spell is really useful against enemies towards the end of the game. MP 9 Who uses: Milly: Level 16 Cure Light This spell is a more powerful version of "Heal"-it can cure up to several thousand hit points of damage to a single character. MP 12 Who uses: Milly: Level 22 Joshua: Level 27 Dispel This spell will cure one character ailing from paralysis or petrification. This spell is indispensable in the later stages of the game, especially in the bonus dungeon, where enemies who can petrify you are everywhere. MP 16 Who uses: Milly: Level 25 Delay This spell reduces the speed that enemies run at. Some enemies are very fast and difficult to catch up with; this spell is effective when you need to stop them. MP 22 Who uses: Milly: Level 28 Fairy Heal The most powerful healing spell, Fairy Heal summons several fairies to heal a single character. This spell will usually heal you completely, unless your max HP are very high and you are very hurt. MP 24 Who uses: Milly: Level 31 Haste This spell hastens your entire party so that they run faster around the battlefield. Cast it on Perisie or Tinek and watch how they blaze across the screen! MP 18 Who uses: Milly: Level 34 Growth This spell increases a single character's size a bit to give them a burst of energy and increase their attack power. This spell is very useful when going up against tough bosses or monsters with lots of HP. MP 14 Who uses: Milly: Level 36 Fairy Light This spell is like a much more powerful version of Cure All; it summons a host of fairies to heal the entire party. It doesn't heal each character quite as much as Fairy Heal would, but it can heal several thousand HP for each character. MP 30 Who uses: Milly: Level 42 Raise Dead When one of your party falls in battle, cast this spell to bring them back. You will probably learn it late in the game, but by the time you do, your characters will be dying considerably more often, so it comes quite in handy. MP 35 Who uses: Milly: Level 46 Fixed Cloud This spell causes a huge cloud in the shape of a hammer and falls upon the battlefield, stunning all enemies facing the caster. This spell is really useful in the bonus dungeon, especially against those eyes and other monsters that can petrify you. MP 20 Who uses: Milly: Level 50 Gravity Press With this spell, the caster increases the force of gravity around an enemy so much that it sustains heavy physical damage. Like "Press," it will affect any other monsters near the target, but it does much more damage. MP 25 Who uses: Milly: Level 54 Ice Needle This spell freezes the water molecules in front of the caster to create a large spike of ice, which fires at his target. It can be dodged, but travels so quickly that it usually finds its mark and does reasonable ice-based damage. MP 3 Who uses: Joshua: Level NA Grave Mp 4 This spell causes the ground under an enemy to form huge earthen spikes and impale them for earth-based damage. This spell can also damage other monsters near the target if the spikes hit them too. Who uses: Joshua: Level NA Ronixis: Level NA Wind Blade With this spell, the caster creates a small whirlwind and directs it at the enemy to do wind-based damage. Unfortunately, the speed at which the whirlwind travels is not great and thus quite often misses the target, who has already moved out to f the way. This is the most powerful (only!) Wind Spell. MP 5 Who uses: Joshua: Level NA Ronixis: Level NA Blizzard The caster of this spell summons a small blizzard to hit all enemies facing him with a water-based attack. This is the most powerful Ice Spell. MP 8 Who uses Joshua: Level NA Earth Grave This spell is just like Grave, except the spikes that come from the ground do more damage and have a larger area of effect. MP 9 Who uses: Joshua: Level 17 Ronixis: Level NA Thunder Bolt This spell creates a thunder cloud over the target, and summons a bolt of lightning down to strike for electrical damage, and do lots of damage. MP 10 Who uses: Joshua: Level 20 Ronixis: Level NA Ray This spell summons a ball of light and several mirrors; the ball of light shoots out rays of light, and the mirrors reflect them across the entire battlefield to attack all enemies to do light-based damage. MP 12 Who uses: Joshua: Level 23 Ronixis: Level 23 Tractor Beam This spell does physical-based damage; it creates a tractor beam over a section of the battlefield and then sucks all enemies within that section high in the air, and turns them upside-down, dropping them onto their heads on the ground. MP 14 Who uses: Joshua: Level 31 Ronixis: Level 27 Earthquake This spell causes a rain of huge boulders to fall upon all enemies to do huge amounts of earth-based damage to them. This is the most powerful Earth Spell. MP 19 Who uses: Joshua: Level 36 Ronixis: Level 36 Word of Death The caster of this spell says a word of death directed towards a single target. If the spell takes effect, that target dies instantly. MP 19 Who uses: Joshua: Level 40 Thunder Storm This spell causes three massive bolts of lightining to strike the battlefield and strike all enemies facing him with lightning-based damage. This is the most powerful Eletricity Spell. MP 22 Who uses: Joshua: Level 45 Ronixis: Level 40 Light Cross With this spell, the caster creates several spheres of light, which he directs high up into the air. The spheres then descend on the battlefield, exploding on impact to do light-based damage to all enemies facing him. MP 26 Who uses: Joshua: Level 50 Ronixis: Level 45 Fire Bolt The caster of this spell fires a small bolt of flame at a single enemy. It travels reasonably slow though, so it often fails to meet its mark. MP 2 Who uses: Ronixis: Level NA Shadow Bolt This spell causes bubbles of darkness to sprout from a pool of darkness under the target. They pop and do darkness-based damage to any enemies in its area of effect. MP 6 Who uses: Ronixis: Level NA Eruption With this spell, the caster summons a huge blast of magma from up under the earth to spurt out and damage all enemies within its area of effect with fire- based damage. MP 8 Who uses: Ronixis: Level NA Wounds This darkness-based attack spell causes the target's own shadow to gain a mind of its own; the shadow then slices him in the back with a darkness-based cut. This is the most powerful Darkness spell. MP 9 Who uses: Ronixis: Level NA Explode This spell causes a huge explosion in the center of the battlefield, doing massive amounts of fire damage to all enemies facing the character. This is the most powerful Fire Spell. MP 16 Who uses: Ronixis: Level 50 Star Flare This spell is similar to Explode in that it creates a huge explosion on the battlefield, but this explosion is one of light, and consequently does light-based damage. This is the most powerful Light Spell. MP 28 Dark Circle This spell preys upon all of the weakened enemies facing the caster; it opens a hole in space, sucking in all enemies that have less than a quarter of their full health. MP 40 Who uses: Joshua [Secret Spell] Ronixis [Secret Spell] Gremlin Lair This spell does opens a portal to a lair of gremlins who come out and attack all enemies of the caster to do physical damage. MP 30 Who uses Ronixis [Secret Spell] Meteor Swarm This is the most powerful attack spell, which is a physical -based attack, and causes a swarm of meteors to strike all enemies facing the caster MP 32 Who uses: Joshua [Secret Spell] Ronixis [Secret Spell] Extension This powerful spell is a physical-based attack, and affects all enemies facing the character. Enemies that do not resist the attack are completely atomized.
