Recruit- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Introduction ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This Guide is meant as a quick and easy method to recruit all 108 Stars without having to potentially spoil oneself in a guide. I saw that all the current recruitment faqs only list the order on the tablets and not the order found in game. I have tried to put it in order as the earliest time to get each character. If you find any errors please e-mail me at the address mentioned above and they will be fixed as soon as possible. I also threw in the locations of a few extra things just to help people avoid having to be tied down by an actual full guide. Feel free to contact me in regards to anything at all, I will be more than happy to address anything. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Terms of Service ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By going past this point you agree to not reproduce this guide in anyway or form without first contacting me to ask for permission. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents A) Character recruitment. B) Special Rune listing. C) Old Book locations. D) Paint Locations. E) Sound set Locations. F) Window Set Locations. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A) Character Recruitment. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I split up the recruitment into two sections, Story recruiting and regular searching for recruits. Under the story section I included all the characters that join automatically and characters which are on your path during the story that don't require much going out of the way. Then after a story event that brings new opportunities it switches to a section where you just go to the places the guide says to go to get those characters. Some characters can be recruited in a slightly different order than listed below but generally I think I have it mostly the best way to go. If you feel differently E-mail me and I will update it. -----------------------------------Story--------------------------------------- [001/108] Hero Mcdohl (Tenkai Star) - Automatically joins at start of game.
