Friendship

Friendship is a system where the player can build relationships with other Heroes. Depending on the player's interactions with other Heroes they can gain or lose Friendship XP, which affects their Friendship Level. Each Hero has a Friendship Level, and there is a separate Team Friendship Level as well. 
== Friendship XP ==
There are several ways the player can increase or decrease friendship XP. Although a Hero's Friendship XP can go down based on the player's choices, their Friendship Level will never decrease.
=== Conversation Choices ===
When talking with another Hero, the player may be presented with several conversation choices. Depending on which option the player chooses, the Hero's Friendship XP may go up or down.
=== Hangouts ===
Hangouts are short activities the player and another Hero can participate in. The selected Hero gains Friendship XP at the end of the Hangout based on the Hero's preferred actvities.
=== Havens ===
Havens are special areas around the Abbey grounds which can be found through exploration. Once discovered, the player can invite a Hero to join them there, potentially receiving major Friendship XP gains at the completion of the activity.
=== Compliments ===
The player may pay a Compliment to a Hero to increase Friendship XP.
=== Gifts ===
The player may choose to give Gifts to another Hero. Giving a Gift rewards Friendship XP for the recipient based on their tastes.
=== Missions ===
Each squad member will earn Friendship XP for participating in a Mission with Hunter.
