Scenarios
Til (Elf Fairy Tamer)
History
He is a young elf who has longed to be an adventurer.
Although he has already been an adult for a good number
of years, he still has a childish side to him. Since then, he
has been preparing to become an adventurer by learning
Fairy Magic and other classes. Recently, he has become
more confident in his magical abilities and has finally
decided to take his first step as an adventurer by knocking
on the door of the Pavilion of Crystal Pieces.
Gameplay
He can fill various roles as a fairy tamer while
watching his remaining MP. He has also mastered the
Ranger class and can heal his allies with herbs and
potions.
Growth Guideline
For ability score growth, give priority to Vitality and
Spirit, which may not be a concern at low levels, but as
levels increase, HP and MP will tend to be in short
supply. Ranger.
Prioritize Fairy Tamer class with Ranger and Sage's
classes following. For combat feats, [Metamagic/Targets]
and [Metamagic/Distance] are recommended.

Aria (Elf Fist Fighter)
History
She is Til's childhood friend, an elf girl who worked
as a dancer in a tavern. She couldn't leave Til alone
because of her caring nature and decided to go with him
on his journey as an adventurer. She is friends with
Cecily, who is mentioned below. They met at the temple
and sometimes went out for dinner or shopping together.
Gameplay
She can use [Throw Attack] to make the opponent
fall prone and let others hit the fallen enemy. In the
beginning, you may feel that she has a weak attack, but
this can change with growth.
Growth Guideline
First, level up the Grappler class. If you want to focus
on the offensive, learn [Improved Throw] when acquiring
the combat feat at 3rd level, and if you want to focus on
defense, learn [Evasive Maneuvers]. Furthermore, at the
5th level, you can choose between [Trample], [Tenacity],
or [Armor Proficiency/Nonmetallic Armor].
Enhancer class can help improve Aria’s weaknesses.
024
Scenarios
Cecily (Human Priest)
History
She is a human female priestess serving in the Canaris
Temple. Although she is still just a novice, she is a devout
believer, actively involved in temple affairs, and
enthusiastic about speaking with temple visitors. She
loves all beautiful things, especially elven women and
Lake Erlute. Naturally, she has a soft spot for her friend
Aria as well, and when she hears that she has become an
adventurer for Til, she decides to become one herself.
Gameplay
She can support her allies with many Divine Magic
skills, such as [Cure Wounds], which recovers HP. She
has also mastered Spiritualism Magic, so he can use
[Spark] for offense and [Protection] to support in battle.
Although she can use many kinds of magic, they
consume a lot of MP, so always pay attention to how
much MP you have left, and be careful to save MP for
important spells.
Growth Guideline
As a magician, intelligence and Spirit are the main
ability scores to grow. You can grow any of the Wizard-
Type Classes by referring to the spells that will be
available at the next level you want.

Gabargin (Dwarf Warrior)
History
He is a dwarven warrior from Lios, a city south of
Luferia, who, believing that the loss of his friends’ fortune
was due to his own failure, ran away from the city and
ended up in Luferia. He dreams of getting rich to
reimburse his friends for their losses.
Gameplay
He is an attack-oriented heavy warrior. In battle, use
the [Beetleskin] technique to reduce damage while taking
advantage of his high attack power to finish off the
enemies.
His low movement speed is compensated because of
his mount. You will need to pay to get a mount, but it is
worth it, so try to get one whenever possible.
Growth Guideline
For ability scores, prioritize Dexterity and Strength.
As for the class, it is advisable to give priority to the
Fighter class, which will lead directly to an increase in
combat power.
As for combat feats, get [Weapon Proficiency/Axe] or
[Armor Proficiency/Metal Armor]. If you like mount,
you can learn stunt [Elevated Attack] and [HP
Enhancement].
026
Scenarios
Guy (Nightmare Magic Warrior)
History
He was born into a noble family in Luferia, but after a
series of deaths due to accidents and sudden illnesses in
the family, Guy was not allowed to take over the title
because he was a nightmare and was cut off from his
family. For a time, Guy was taken in by relatives, but he
felt neglected because of his nightmare background, so he
left home and became an adventurer.
Gameplay
Basically, he is a warrior with a spear. [Mana Strike]
can help you deal large amounts of damage. If you cast
Truespeech Magic, you will normally receive a -4 penalty
if you are in metal armor, but this penalty will be
eliminated if you use the racial ability [Alternate Form].
Growth Guideline
Grow his lowest ability scores. If you like fighting with
weapons, you should level up the Fighter class, and if you
like casting spells, you should level up the Sorcerer class.
It is also a good idea to develop both classes equally to
create a versatile magic warrior.

Shacki (Tabbit Artificer)
History
She is an artificer tabbit. Shacki is small in stature, carries
a long gun on her back, and wears pretty, feminine
ornaments and fabrics. She came to Luferia after a long
journey from another part of the region, exploring Luferia,
which looks interesting. She is planning to stay in Canaris
for a while as an adventurer, and when she gets tired of it,
she will go on another trip.
Gameplay
She uses a gun to attack enemies. Damage with guns is
quite powerful because it ignores Defense. However, since
it consumes both MP and bullets, it is necessary to pay
attention to that.
Growth Guideline
For the ability score, increase Intelligence if you value
Artificer's Magic Power and the gun's damage, increase
dexterity if you want to improve the gun's Accuracy check,
and increase Dexterity, Agility, and Intelligence if you value
your Scout skills.
It is recommended that you keep leveling up Artificer
and Marksman to the same level. The Scout class should
follow them a few levels below.

beforehand.
Scenario Overview
The PCs are asked by Dorvan, a man researching the
history of Luferia, to find a “Jasper of Hurifane.” One is
a jade gem, and the other is a jade-colored pudding. After
talking to a group of thieves who think they are looking

different each time.
Description
It looks like a white cow without spots. He has a
face of an old elf, a man of deep wisdom, and he is
considered unique among the Jii.
Like regular Jii, he sometimes mentions evil events
to people, but they are never major calamities and
are most often prophecies of personal misfortune or
death. Furthermore, no one has ever seen Pentreus
in person, and those who have had their lives
changed for much worse.
Pentreus has an incense burner called “Ephemeral
Guide,” and when he sleeps with its smell, he can
send a vision of a future evil event to other persons.
Pentreus sometimes warns adventurer parties of
future evil via these visions. However, most of them
forget the content of their dreams, and when they do
remember, they are only told that they dreamed of a
creepy old man.
There is a reason why Pentreus takes this
approach. He does not like to create prophesies to
influence the future, and he only reaches out to those

Pixie is their girlfriend in their dream and answers all

Description
Sferrareel is a rose fairy who is said to have once
fallen in love with Prince Serdi of the Kingdom of
Izmar. She resembles a beautiful elf girl, her long
crimson wavy hair seemingly adorned with many
roses. However, these roses all bloom from her hair
and are part of her body. It is said that she was always
surrounded by the sweet and sad scent of roses.
The love story of Sferrareel and Prince Serdi is
said to be about 500 years old. For more
information, please refer to “The Legend of the
Prince and the Rose Fairy” on page 45 of this book.
It is said that she is now living in seclusion with the
memory of Prince Serdi. If you find the scent of
sweet and sad roses wafting in the air in a secluded
forest, Sferrareel may be nearby.
The most common scenario for her to appear as a
target is a request of some scholar researching her
legend, or by someone who is in love with her legend
and would like to meet her. Another option would
