Getting started

Party setup: roles before romance choices

Build a party that can explore, talk, control a fight, and recover after mistakes.

  1. Keep a character with social skills for dialogue-heavy routes.
  2. Add a reliable damage role and at least one control or support option.
  3. Use short rests intentionally instead of treating them as an emergency button.
  4. Let companion approval develop through choices that fit your role-play.
