Guard Ageing

This is a blue shield mark that exists only in the sequel. It is a blue mark, so multiple copies of the mark on the same shield are allowed but do not stack. This mark causes your shield's enhancement level to reduce by one every time you take damage. This is a bad thing, so you do not want this mark on your gear. The current in-game text description of what the mark does is completely wrong.
Damage Reflect Lv3

This skill reflects a fraction of the damage that Dragonia takes, so that her attacker takes some damage, too. The difference between this skill and the Damage Reflect skill used by Red Lizard is that this one reflects a larger fraction of the damage taken.

In the sequel this skill is called **Dmg Reflection III**, and can be taught to several different Monsters.
Dark Dragon

They are the most ferocious of all dragons. Today, the dark dragons struggle to dispel this awful rumor.

### Skills

* Breath of Fire
* Dragon Embrace
* Flame Protection

### Terms of friendship

Win her power contest. It's the same basic contest as trying to escape from Coco in the very early boss fight. If the ogre has at least three hearts, she'll give you a chance to try to escape. If you succeed, she'll ask to be your friend. If you fail, she'll then have one heart and not give you another chance.

Your power level affects the number of directions you have to press in order, while your current stamina determines how long you'll have to press them. You may wish to load up on Power Fruit and Large Bread and then eat a bunch early in a run (before meeting her) to clear space in your inventory on runs where you plan to try to recruit an ogre. Alternatively, you could have a sword and shield loaded with many Rise in Pow marks and a Power Bracelet that you switch to when trying to recruit her.

If you're having trouble recruiting Dark Dragon, then you may also want to load up on Poison Arrows and shoot her with a few of them to reduce her own power before attempting to befriend her. Just be careful not to kill her, as those poison arrows also deal damage.

While there are some dark dragons near the end of the Demon Kingdom dungeon, she cannot be recruited there.

### Comments

Dark Dragon's Dragon Embrace skill is one of the most dangerous in the entire game. It allows her to shoot you from long distances without needing to be in the same room as you. One dark dragon on her own isn't that dangerous, but several of them on the same floor can drain your life pretty effectively. They are especially dangerous on floors 14-15 of The Beast Road. Dark Dragon won't spawn until far into the Mysterious Adventure dungeon (the minimum floor is around 350-400), but if you want to complete that dungeon, you might want to use a Grimoire of Long Vacation to be rid of her.

The **Queen's Guard** is a rare outfit. Due to it being rare, it costs more than a common cosmetic, but not as expensive as something that's epic.

## Appearance

Grimoire of Blindfold

A grimoire of blindfold will cause all hostile monsters in the room to become blind. As blind monsters tend to move in a straight line and keep attacking, if they already knew where you were, this might not help very much. You'll need to move out of the way to make this effectively disable the monsters.

In the sequel, this is called Blindfold Grimoire.
Dungeons

## First game

There are nine dungeons in the game, and you must complete some of them in order to unlock others. The dungeons are unlocked in three phases. Once you have unlocked a dungeon, it will remain open for you to return and play it again, even after progressing further in the game.

### Beginning phase

* Beginner Dungeon

The beginner dungeon is unlocked from the very start.

### Middle phase

* Labyrinth of Crystals
* Village Exit
* Demon Kingdom
* Elven Hidden Village
* Memory of the Hero

Upon completing the beginner dungeon, you'll unlock the next five dungeons. While the dungeons can be completed in any order, Demon Kingdom is definitely harder than Village Exit. One could argue that Village Exit is largely meant as the second dungeon you attempt, as it is the best source in the game of farming for swords, shields, and money.

### Endgame phase

* Mysterious Adventure
* Village Mayor's Trial
* The Beast Road

After completing all five of the middle phase dungeons, you unlock the Mysterious Adventure dungeon. Attempting it will unlock Village Mayor's Trial. Getting further into it will unlock the Beast Road dungeon.

## Second game

The number of dungeons in the sequel is not yet known, and more might well be added that aren't in yet. Of the dungeons found so far, you generally must complete one to unlock the next, though Route Phoenix Place and Route Great Fairy Place can be done in either order. The first two are very short, leaving Route Old Castle as the first major dungeon. The dungeons in the game as of this writing are:

### Story Dungeons

* Northern Forest
* Route Grasslands
* Route Old Castle
* Route Maxwell Ruins
* Route Phoenix Place
* Route Great Fairy Place
* Route Artist's Atelier
* Route Crystal Spring
* Route Monster's Arena
* Route Fog Origin

### Endgame Dungeons

* Village Mayor's Trial
* Artist's Atelier Training Zone
* Trapper's Underground Labyrinth
* Eastern Training Ground
* Mysterious Adventure (Sequel)

### Early Access Dungeons

* Route Illusory Ruins
* Route Illusory Ruins 2

These dungeons were used for testing during early access and were removed for the game's full release.
Grimoire of Heavy Rain

A grimoire of heavy rain will make the floor wet and all books on it unreadable. While not a very valuable effect, it can be a convenient way to identify books that are actually a disguised 3tails Fox, 4tails Fox, 5tails Fox, or 6tails Fox, fox items do not get wet.

In the sequel, this is called Rain Grimoire. Additionally, it can make books in your inventory wet and unreadable, reduce fire damage, as well as disable explosive traps.
Faxy

Faxy is only present in the sequel and not in the original game.

### Skills

First Village

First Village is the town where you stay for the duration of the game. There is no second village. There are only four monsters there when you first arrive, but most of the remaining NPCs who offer important services will show up as you finish and complete the Beginner Dungeon. This page lists all of them.

Your friends whom you recruit in dungeons will also hang out in town, and you can talk to them, but don't otherwise do anything with them while in town. There are 40 locations where the game can put one of your friends. If you have fewer than 40 friends, all of them will be in town, and it will pick random locations to put them. If you have more than 40, then all of the slots will have some friend place there, and which friends are in town will be chosen randomly.

## Misla

Misla is the first friendly monster that you'll meet. She invites you to First Village, but doesn't have any non-storyline role.

## Mayor Tarte

The mayor manages your friends and lets you pick which ones you will take with you on dungeon runs. She also plays special roles in the storyline at several points.

## House

Your house has two doors that you can access. The left one lets you save your game, and the right one is for storage.

## Grocer Tanukichi

The town's main item shop sells a variety of goods, and also buys unwanted goods from you.

## Grocer daughter Kotanu

Kotanu doesn't do anything while in town, though she can show up in dungeons in certain circumstances.

## Smith Oyakata

Oyakata can upgrade your swords and shields.

## Smith Apprentice Rina

Rina sells some swords and shields in unlimited quantities at fixed prices, as well as buying goods that you want to be rid of.

## Compounder Barbara

Barbara offers special synthesis, which can convert fruit to Sword Marks or Shield Marks.

## Porter Puree

Puree can take you to various locations in the Beginner Dungeon, rather than forcing you to start from the beginning every time.

## Porter sis Serena

Serena can take you to floor 20 of the Demon Kingdom dungeon, rather than forcing you to start at the beginning every time.

## Treasure Hunter Coco

Coco runs a cafe that offers meals that will buff you on your next dungeon run.

## Dispeler Arachne

Arachne can remove curses from items for a small fee.

## Mayor sis Melt

Melt can prestige your friends to make them stronger, increasing the level cap by 5 at the cost of resetting their levels to 1.

## Aide Gabli

Gabli tracks which dungeons you have completed and which you have not.

## Appraiser Nibi

Nibi reveals the full stats of swords or shields. In the process, she effectively adds prefixes to them if they didn't already have one.

## Insurance Insya

Insya offers insurance on swords, shields, and bracelets, so that if you lose one in a dungeon, she'll replace it for you.

## Porter High Elko

Elko takes you to the start of the Elven Hidden Village dungeon.

## Tamamo

Tamamo gives you access to The Beast Road dungeon.
Forbidden Fruit

This is a shield mark that can only be obtained randomly from shields dropped by Alpha Monsters, and only in the sequel. It is a purple mark, so it cannot be transferred to any other shield. It costs 100 MP, and when used, will create a Revival Fruit for you. I haven't had a chance to use it, as it takes five Magic Up Fruit in a single run to reach the required 100 MP. The description also says something unclear about a max MP of 50, which may mean reducing your max MP to 50 to stop you from using it repeatedly.
Hold Bracelet

The hold bracelet makes it so that if you step on a Drop Item Trap, it won't drop items from your inventory. That effectively disables the trap. It does not prevent you from similarly dropping items when Echidna or Melusine hits you with her Tale Beat skill. Tanukichi will occasionally sell it for 10000 in her dungeon shop, or you can occasionally find it laying on the ground.

In the sequel, this bracelet will still disable the effects of an Item Drop Trap, but it also disables the effect of a Removing Trap. Additionally, it disables the item dropping effect of Medusa's Scare Drop skill. This makes it a far more powerful bracelet than in the original game.
Dryad

A demon tribe in which spirits are united with plants. They roam freely and enjoy tea parties with their long-lived friend, Arlaune.

Dryad is only present in the sequel and not in the original game.

### Skills

* Like Rain

### Terms of friendship

Use a Rain Grimoire while standing next to her.

### Drops

* Fiber Grass
* Rotten Fruit
* Small Heal Fruit

### Recruitment locations

* Route Great Fairy Place, floors 7-9, 28-30
Grimoire of Dispel

A grimoire of dispel will remove any curses from all items in your main inventory. It will not remove the curses from items inside of a Magic Pouch. This book is the necessary gift to recruit a Were Bat or Hematophagus to be your friend. In addition to being available as random drops or in Tanukichi's dungeon shop, you can always buy this book from Tanukichi's shop in First Village.

In the sequel, it is called Dispel Grimoire. It is still available in Tanukichi's shop in Hope Village.
Get Tired Easily

This skill restricts the formidable offensive capabilities of Aery, Sylph, Tempest, and Jinn. They all have the Act Twice or Act Three Times skill, allowing them to move and attack multiple times per turn. This skill makes it so that if they attack multiple times in a turn, only the first attack will do full damage, and subsequent ones will do significantly less damage.
Damage Reflect Lv2

This skill reflects a fraction of the damage that Blue Lizard takes, so that her attacker takes some damage, too. The difference between this skill and the Damage Reflect skill used by Lizard is that this one reflects a larger fraction of the damage taken.

In the sequel this skill is called **Dmg Reflection II** and can be taught to several different Monsters.
Gambling

The gambling prefix is available on both swords and shields.

### On swords

It makes it so that you either deal half or double the damage that you otherwise would have, and it chooses randomly which of the two happens.

There are edge cases where it is useful, but it's mostly a bad thing. It can be helpful for recruiting Zulur or especially Carbuncle as your friends, as they want to see you deal very high damage in a single blow.

### On shields

It means that you take either half or double the normal damage. This is very bad.
Demon Kingdom

The Demon Kingdom dungeon is started from the purple portal at the end of the Beginner Dungeon, that is, floor 36. Porter Puree can take you directly there. Once you clear floor 20, Porter sis Serena comes to town and can take you back to floor 20 within the dungeon. Most items are unidentified, as they are with most other dungeons. The entire dungeon has 51 floors, including a final floor with no monsters, and also floor 20 with no monsters. If you clear the entire dungeon in a single run, you can expect to reach level 30-35 by the end of it.

The main complication with the Demon Kingdom dungeon is that you can only bring one friend. You can recruit a second friend while inside the dungeon, but only being able to bring one complicates efforts at using it to level friends. You can also use a Grimoire of Summon Friend while inside the dungeon to summon a second friend as a way to get two high level friends.
Hematophagus

The bat girl tribe lives but sucking the blood of their opponents, but these days they can take iron in pill form.

### Skills

* Confu Ultrasound

Bring her health level below 1/4 of its maximum, then make her fall asleep, such as by using a Sleep Grimoire, Sleep Staff, or Sleep Fruit. That will put a yellow star over her head. After she wakes up, she will join as a friend if invited.

### Drops

* Battled Scale
* Great Scale
* Magma Stone

### Recruitment locations

* Route Fog Origin floor 41~43
Depower Arrow

In the original game, a poison arrow deals damage to a target that it hits, but also reduces the target's power by 1. In most cases, reducing a monster's power doesn't matter, as the monster is about to die. Poison arrows can be useful to reduce the power of certain monsters so that you can win a power contest as necessary to befriend them. This is especially the case for Kijin and Dark Dragon. Poison arrows are fired by a Pow Down Arrow Trap, and are one of the types of arrows sometimes used by High Elf.

In the sequel, this is called Depower Arrow. The sequel has a different item called Poison Arrow, which more descriptively, actually poisons the target. The name collision is unfortunate, but the name poison arrow really should be used as it is in the sequel. This page is at the name of the sequel item rather than the original to avoid having two pages with the same name.
Grab

This skill allows a monster to pick up an enemy and carry her target to an ally of the monster. This can move both the monster who uses the skill and her target long distances. It also means that friends with this skill are less prone to wandering off and dying because they will use this skill to fly back to you. You can protect against this skill with a Heavy Equipment mark on your shield, though Hraesvelgr's Strength skill allows her to bypass that mark.
Elder Rich

Vampire who lived for a long time. She is devoted herself to cultivating the barren lands deep in the Demon Tribe's Territory and is rarely seen in public. She enjoys a simple but fulfilling life with the Bat Tribe, with whom she feels at ease.

### Drops

* Rienel Cloth

### Recruitment locations

* Mysterious Adventure (Sequel) 800+F
Flame r

The "flame r" prefix is available on shields, but only in the sequel.

It replaces the effect of any books that you read by that of a Fire Grimoire. As this disables the normal effect of the book, it is usually a bad thing, as you'd have to remove the shield in order to use books.

Yes, the prefix name has a space before the "r". In a case of spectacularly awful kerning, it also has a space after the "r", though that isn't part of the page name.
Explosion Arrow

An explosion arrow causes an explosion when it hits a target, which deals 20 damage to the target and also to everything in adjacent squares. This explosion can damage both friendly and hostile monsters, and can also destroy items that were laying on the ground. These arrows cannot miss, exploding on the target regardless of evasive abilities. Explosion Arrows can sometimes be found laying on the ground, but arrows fired by monsters will explode and not be reusable.

Explosion arrows are used by Dark Elf, and are also one of the types of arrows sometimes used by High Elf.
Dormouse

A demon tribe of mice who always looks exhausted. They have a belief that they will do what they have to do when the time comes, but no one has ever seen them do it. They get angry when you sleep all the time, so they try to make you sleep with them.

Dormouse is only present in the sequel and not in the original game.

Fox Bressing

This is a shield mark that can only be obtained randomly from shields dropped by Alpha Monsters. It takes 100 turns to charge the mark. Once it is charged, if you eat Highest Aburaage, you will gain the Attack Up and swift status conditions, and then the skill charge will reset to zero. It is a purple mark, so it cannot be transferred to any other shield. Yes, the mark name is a typo and should read "Fox Blessing".
Pot Fairy

A magical creature that has a habit of collecting and putting everything in pots. The pots seem to be a part of her body, and it writhes when tickled.

Pot Fairy is only present in the sequel and not in the original game.

### Skills

* Route Phoenix Place, floors 13-16

### Comments

Unlike most friends, Pot Fairy really isn't intended for combat, as she's very weak at it. Rather, her purpose is to synthesize together two items when you need that done.

Grimoire of Ice Magic

A grimoire of ice magic will freeze everything in front of you in a cone shape. Monsters will become frozen and unable to act for several turns or until damaged. If there is water in front of you, it will freeze into ice, allowing you to walk across. Items on the ground in front of you will be frozen and unusable for the rest of the floor, though they automatically thaw out when the floor ends. This last effect is valuable as a way to create a frozen Fruit, as required to recruit Moth or Artemis to be your friend. This book is also useful as a way to freeze Flame Lily, as necessary to befriend her. The book generally comes with one to three charges.

In the sequel, this is called Ice Grimoire.
Debuffs Invalid

This skill prevents a monster from being affected by any negative conditions. While a very powerful skill, it is only available to Titania and certain boss or special monsters to prevent making it unduly easy to handle them. For example, one major purpose of this skill is to ensure that the battle against Lord Tarte is suitably difficult rather than allowing you to disable her by various conditions.
Guiltabrille

Scorpion Demon Tribe who wanders around the world on his own. She sometimes works as a travelling dancer and sometimes as a hired guard for the three swords. Although she looks unfriendly, she actually loves to talk.

Guiltabrille is only present in the sequel and not in the original game.

### Skills

* Paralyze Needle
* Like Night
* Poison Guard
* Dancing Guard

### Pro skills

* Energizing Dance
* Dance Tips R

### Terms of friendship

After 900 turns, give items to her until her like level is maximized. She'll then ask to be a friend. After 900 turns, the second fog level makes monsters much stronger than before. After 1000 turns, the third fog level makes monsters extremely strong, which is very dangerous. Another option is to find **Guiltabrille** near the exit or sent her there using a Postpone Staff, read a Jealousy Grimoire to instantly bring the third fog level, recruit her, and head for the exit.

### Drops

* Soft Shell
* Carbonized Shell
* Rienel Cloth

### Recruitment locations

* Village Mayor's Trial 2 Floor 85~88

Immunity Fruit

Eating an immunity fruit gives you the preventative condition, which makes you immune to other conditions for the rest of the floor. This can be useful if a particular floor is being really obnoxious with nasty conditions. It's usually not that useful, though.

Cost 1000 golds and can be sold for 500 golds.
Holstein

The distinctive pattern of this bull is eye-catching. On weekends and holidays, she works hard at farming by replacing her machete with a straw.

Holstein is only present in the sequel and not in the original game.

Girls Defenser

The girls defenser [sic] bracelet basically acts like a Revival Fruit for your friends. That is, if one of them dies while you are wearing it, it will instantly revive her at full health. This destroys the bracelet, however. Tanukichi will occasionally sell it for 15000 in her dungeon shop, or you can occasionally find it laying on the ground.

In the sequel, this is called Friend Resume Bracelet. **Friend Resume Bracelet** will turned into Ordinary Bracelet after you use this effect. If you synth the mark to other bracelet then only the Friend Protector mark will be gone and your bracelet won't turned into Ordinary Bracelet.
Fixed Damage Cut

Fixed Damage Cut is a red shield mark that exists only in the sequel. It reduces but does not eliminate damage that you take from attacks that do fixed damage other than fire, ice, or explosion damage, which are mitigated by other marks. That, of course, doesn't leave very many sources of fixed damage, but it probably protects you against spikes.
Grimoire of Return

Reading a grimoire of return is a common way to end your dungeon run and return to First Village. The other alternatives are dying (which you usually don't want to do) or completing the dungeon. Sometimes completing the dungeon isn't practical. It is recommended that you always have a grimoire of return with you so that you can exit a dungeon if you need to. In addition to being available in the same places as other books, a grimoire of return is always sold by Tanukichi in her shop in town.

Reading a grimoire of return will not work if you are in Tanukichi's dungeon shop or if Watcher has decided to kill you. It will consume the book, but will not take you back to town.

In the sequel, it is called Return Grimoire. It is also sold by Tanukichi in her shop in Hope Village. Naturally, it returns you to Hope Village instead of First Village.
Explosion Pouch

An explosion pouch comes full of mana. You can use it to cause an explosion akin to stepping on an Explosion Trap, which consumes one of the mana in the pouch. You cannot put anything into an explosion pouch. The individual mana items within the bag are also explosive, so a broken bag will create a shower of explosions. It exists only in the sequel and not in the original game.

The 600 per slot price for an explosion pouch breaks down as 500 for the slot and 100 for the mana. An empty explosion pouch is worth 500 per slot.
Elixir

The elixir is a gift item that exists only in the sequel. This item can only be obtained through crafting and is used to recruit the Pot Fairy and her variants.

The crafting recipe for an Elixir is:

* 1x Revival Fruit
* 2x Magic Solt
* 2x Extra Slime
* 2x Golden Magic Water

Prior to the endgame, two dungeons may provide all the necessary items to craft an Elixir: Route Maxwell Ruins and Route Phoenix Place. Phoenix Place has an NPC that sells Revival Fruit so that the player doesn't have to bring one in, but Golden Magic Water is rare and the entrance restrictions can be troublesome. Maxwell Ruins has no entry restrictions and Golden Magic Water is easier to obtain, but Magic Solt is less common, though not rare. Either way, the player may have to run the dungeon several times before having a chance to craft one.
Darkness Lover

This skill allows a hostile monster to make it very dark for you in the room where she is during the night. This reduces your sight distance to only a single square away. This effect only applies at night, and the skill does nothing during the day. Only hostile monsters will apply this effect to you, not friends.
Freelance Slug

It became calm after she decided to choose customers independently.

A slug quit her job at the town hall and started her own business. Now she can choose her own customers and has regained her physical and mental health.

* Route Fog Origin, floors 38-40
* Mysterious Adventure (Sequel)
Discount Bracelet

The discount bracelet grants a 30% discount on items that you buy from Tanukichi's dungeon shop. It does not grant a similar discount on items that you buy from her or other vendors in town, nor does it affect the price at which vendors will buy items from you, including Tanukichi in her dungeon shop. You can occasionally find it laying on the ground in a dungeon.
Dmg Recovery Lv2

This mark causes you to recover 3 health every time a monster hits you. It is a green mark, so its effects can be stacked, and you'll recover 3 health per copy of the mark on your shield. It can be created from a Big Heal Fruit using synthesis. The mark can also be put on an accessory to give the friend that wears it the same 3 health recovery upon taking damage as the mark would give you on a shield. It's also a waste of a mark, as you could instead use the mark slot for Dmg Recovery Lv3 and recover 4 health instead of 3. It exists only in the sequel and not in the original game.
Gaokerena

The tree of life which was an object of a divine spirit. It is said that she is able to use the fruits of recovery and that no industrial accidents occur within view of this tree. She is gentle, but her anger level is low, so you need to be careful.

Girls Bressing

This is a shield mark that can only be obtained randomly from shields dropped by Alpha Monsters. It takes 800 turns to charge the mark. If one of your party members dies while the mark is fully charged, it will revive her with full health, but this resets the mark charge to zero. It is a purple mark, so it cannot be transferred to any other shield. Yes, the mark name should read "Girls Blessing".
Poison Attack (mark)

In the original game, this is a sword mark that gives your attacks a small chance (around 5%) to inflict the poisoned condition on monsters that you hit. It is obtained by having Compounder Barbara perform special synthesis using a Poison Fruit. It is a green mark, so multiple copies of the mark on the same sword will stack and give you a higher chance to inflict the condition. This mark still exists in the sequel with the same name and effects.
Helmet Split

Amazones's signature skill takes a turn to charge, then hits someone within her normal melee range harder than normal. Of course, what often happens is that she takes a turn to charge, during which she dies or her target moves out of the way, leading her to cancel the skill instead of attacking. It's actually a pretty terrible skill, and she'd be better off disabling it in favor of her normal melee attack.

In the sequel, this skill is called **Rock Slash**, which is a totally different name from the original game. The skill is apparently more functional than in the first game, and can be used as a means of attacking from behind the main character when in a corridor, for example. Just make sure to teach the Friend Skillful as well!

Evasive Shield

The evasive shield has six mark slots, which is two more than any other shield in the game except the Brave Shield. It is also the unique source of the Seeing Through mark. It is obtained only by using a Magic Key on floor 45 of the Route Fog Origin dungeon. This makes it cumbersome to acquire eight of them to max the upgrade level, and also prevents it from having any of the bonuses that items dropped by Alpha Monsters get.

The evasive shield only exists in the sequel and not in the original game.
Hot Bread

Some floors of the sequel are cold, which doubles your SP consumption. Eating a hot bread will disable this environment effect for three floors, in addition to restoring 50 SP. If you plan on fully exploring a series of cold floors, this bread will definitely be worth the inventory slot. This item exists only in the sequel and not in the original game.
Drunks

The Drunks are a group of 2-3 neutral monsters that usually consists of Goblins, Hobgoblins, and Lorelei, gathered around a campfire found in the Mysterious Adventure (Sequel) dungeon. One of the girls will ask if you have any alcohol. If you give her Sake, you receive a message that says, "Things are starting to look better!" I'm unsure if this has anything to do with your reputation since mine did not change from "normal", but this is the message that normally displays when your reputation increases. Maybe it restores it if your reputation is negative?
Monsters

This page lists all of the monsters in the Monster Book, in the order given there. This includes all of the monsters that you can fight against. Most but not all of the monsters can be recruited as your friends, including all of numbers 1-111 except for #102, and also #116.

Each monster page has a screenshot taken from the monster book, the monster's base stats at level 1, and the monster's stats at her initial level cap before being enhanced by Melt. The amount of stat increases from each level up is slightly random, so your own monsters will likely have slightly different stats at the level cap.

The book numbers are from the original game. The sequel has many of the same monsters, but they are not numbered there. The monsters are sorted by the order that the sequel puts them into the monster book. This is very similar to the order from the original game, but not exactly the same.

The list of monsters is complete for the original game. In the sequel, it lists all monsters currently available in permanent dungeons, but not all of the ones in Route Illusory Ruins 2. A handful of recruitment conditions for listed monsters are left incomplete because they haven't yet been verified. It is expected that most of the monsters from the original game will eventually be present in the sequel, but many of them aren't in yet. Monsters have been completely rebalanced from the original game, but if the same monster (or a slight renaming) is present in both games, the same page can have information on both games.

Apart from a relative handful of bosses or otherwise special monsters, most of the monsters that you fight against can be recruited to be your friends. How to recruit a monster varies wildly from the type of monster. The details are given in far more details on the page for the given monster. A more general explanation is given on the Making Friends page.
Frozen Breath

Fenrir's signature attack will freeze everything in a cone in front of her. Monsters will become frozen, as will water and items on the ground. It takes a turn to charge, which gives you time to get out of the way. This attack does not distinguish between friendly and hostile monsters, but can freeze both.

In the sequel, this attack is called Freezing Breath.
Grimoire of Traps Visions

A grimoire of traps visions will make all traps on the floor visible to you. This makes the traps appear both on the ground on your main screen and also as an X on the map. It does not affect the functionality of the traps, but only reveals them to you so that you don't accidentally step on them.

In the sequel, this is called Trap Vison Grimoire. I think it's supposed to say "vision" and not "vison".

Oberon

The Queen of the spirits. She handles scales that work on life and mana. These scales are sold for a high price.

### Terms of friendship

To recruit Oberon, you have to give her a sealed bracelet. That is, a bracelet that has been sealed so as to have no effect when worn, not a Sealed Bracelet that prevents you from being sealed. When an item is sealed, it only remains so for a few floors before coming unsealed, so you'll need to meet Oberon immediately after the bracelet gets sealed in order to recruit her.

The simplest way to recruit an Oberon is to start by having a fox item for a 5tails Fox or 6tails Fox. The only reliable source of such items is 5tails Fox items on floor 50 of the Demon Kingdom dungeon, though you can also find them by chance in the Mysterious Adventure dungeon. Get such an item and keep it in your inventory when you head out to do the Mysterious Adventure dungeon, preferably by jumping to start on floor 201, as Oberon can't appear until you're quite a ways in. As you head through the dungeon, accumulate some bracelets that you wouldn't mind losing and keep them (possibly in bags) rather than selling them to Tanukichi when given the chance.

Once you find a floor with Oberon, shuffle your inventory to put several junk bracelets in your main inventory. Set your friends to follow and throw the fox item to let the fox out. Don't attack her, but let her approach and use her Youko Dance skill to seal a random item in your inventory. If she seals something you can't do without (e.g., your sword or shield), then reset the floor. Otherwise, as soon as she seals one of your junk bracelets, kill her. You now have a gift ready to present to Oberon to recruit her as your friend. Be sure to do so before leaving the floor so that the bracelet won't come unsealed on its own after all that work.

Elven Hidden Village

The Elven Hidden Village dungeon starts at Porter High Elko, in the southeast corner of First Village. The dungeon has 31 floors, including a final floor with no monsters. The dungeon has no restrictions on bringing friends. If you clear the entire dungeon, you can expect to be about level 25-30 by the end of it.

The main complication of the Elven Hidden Village dungeon is that you cannot bring metal items. That means that the only sword you can bring is a Club, the only shield is a Wood Shield, and you cannot bring any bracelets or bags at all. Bracelets do drop inside the dungeon, but other metal items do not. As a club and wood shield are the weakest sword and shield in the game, you'll need to roll strong versions of them in order to have something usable for this dungeon.

Items in the dungeon are unidentified by default. You can bring a Grimoire of Appraisal or Grimoire of Identification to identify items for you, though you won't be able to bring an Identify Bracelet. This dungeon also has Amnesia Fruit, which can wipe out your knowledge of previously identified items.
