Naughty

A little devil who loves mischief. She is enjoying throwing things, but she always got angry by Tanukichi.

### Terms of friendship

You have to give her an item stolen from Tanukichi's shop on the same floor. She can only be recruited on floors that have the shop, though you can restart the game to reroll the level if you need to. The item must officially be stolen, as you can't recruit her by giving her a shop item while still in the shop. Tanukichi's wrath can be quite severe if you steal too valuable of items, so it's best to steal only a single, cheap item to befriend her.

There are two basic approaches to stealing items. One is to pick up the item, then use a Grimoire of Collective Move to warp out of the shop with it, effectively making it stolen. Then you find Naughty, give her the item to befriend her, and either run for the stairs or use a Grimoire of Return to go back to town before Tanukichi finds you and attacks. This can recruit her without getting you a [BAD] reputation or injuring Tanukichi, so there aren't any longer term consequences. Having to keep away from Tanukichi makes it tricky, however.

The other approach to stealing items is to defeat Tanukichi first. Get everyone positioned to fight her, then throw damaging items at her. After the third, she'll say that she has to attack you to defend herself, and then you'll be able to attack and injure her. Once you've done that, her shop is yours to loot freely, and without the severe consequences of teleporting out with several stolen items. This will prevent you from accessing her shop for the rest of the dungeon run, or in town for a while thereafter, however.

Give her an item stolen from Tanukichi's shop on the same floor, so that it still has a price tag. This is the same basic condition as in the original game, so the analysis from the original game still mostly applies.

It is much harder in the sequel than in the original game, however, for three reasons. One is that Tanukichi is much stronger than before, making her much more difficult to defeat in combat. Another is that if you leave the shop with stolen goods, Tanukichi will cause the floor to be flooded with traps, making it far more difficult to move around and escape. The third is that after goods are stolen, Tanukichi will do something to disable the use of a Return Grimoire for the remainder of the floor, so that you must reach the exit rather than merely warping home. Attempting to use that grimoire will merely remove it from your inventory but not return you to Hope Village.

It is strongly recommended that you steal only a single, very cheap item from Tanukichi if trying to befriend Naughty. If she doesn't have anything cheap to sell, you can make her offer something cheap by selling something cheap to her, then stealing it back. If you steal at least 1000 gold worth of items, then Tanukichi will summon many monsters onto the floor, and they will be very high level. It is much, much easier to recruit Naughty if you prevent this from happening.

If you want to befriend Naughty, then there are a variety of approaches that can work. It is much, much easier if you can bring whatever items you want into the dungeon rather than relying on finding needed items in the dungeon on the way. The latter could mean that you're shorthanded.

One approach that is fairly reliable is to bring a Light Grimoire, a Telegnosis Grimoire, a Jump Staff, a Tunnel Staff, a Postpone Staff, and a Swap Staff. When you enter a floor where Naughty spawns, use the two books and check the map to see if Tanukichi also spawned. If not, then close the game, launch it again, and try again.

Once Tanukichi's shop spawns, dismiss your friends and use the Tunnel Staff to dig a tunnel from Tanukichi's shop to the floor exit. It is easier if both the shop and the exit are along the perimeter of the map, as this lets you dig a long tunnel around the perimeter that other monsters cannot enter except at the ends. This will be your escape route for stolen goods. Tanukichi's Increase Traps skill only creates traps in rooms and not in hallways between rooms, so it won't create traps in the tunnels you dig. If you have to pass through normal rooms, you'll also need a Trap Remove Grimoire to remove the traps after Tanukichi creates them.

Next, search through the level for a Naughty with a like level of at least three hearts. If you find one with a like level of two hearts, you can give her gifts to bring it up to three. Once you have found your target, use the Postpone Staff on her, which will teleport her to the dungeon exit and paralyze her there. Next, you may wish to clear any monsters from your tunnel if any have entered, as it will be easier to get away with nothing blocking you.

After this, go to Tanukichi's shop and pick up an item worth less than 1000 gold. Stand at the entrance to your tunnel and the Jump Staff to put some distance between you and Tanukichi. Depending on the shape of your tunnel, you may wish to use it multiple times to get away quickly. Don't hit Naughty with the staff, however, as this will damage her and end her paralysis. If any other monsters are blocking your way in the tunnel, you can use a Swap Staff to trade places with them and thus get past them. It is better to use the staff while you are far away from the monster.

Alternatively you can freeze Tanukichi with Ice Grimoire or Ice Pillar Staff and reflect Postpone Staff to reach the exit but this does not work if there is magic jam or you are not immune to paralysis.

Once you reach Naughty, talk to her to end her paralysis and invite her to join your party. She'll ask for a stolen item from your inventory. Give her the item you stole and she'll join you. At this point, you should be right next to the exit, so you can readily step on the exit tile on your very next turn and get away.

Alternatively, you can use an Sanctuary grimoire to defeat Tanukichi. Place the grimoire down (not read it), throw 3 damaging items at her (anything that is not edible) to trigger her combat phase, and then you can safely attack her from inside the invulnerability zone provided by the grimoire.

### Recruitment locations

* Route Maxwell Ruins, floors 13-15
* Route Phoenix Place, floors 13-16

It is only possible to recruit Naughty on a floor that also has Tanukichi's shop. The floors in Route Phoenix Place where she can spawn are much more likely than most other floors to have Tanukichi also spawn, however.
