An In-Depth FAQ by CyricZ

************************************************************************

There are many characters in the game that can't be picked up with
normal means.  These guys are usually quite a bit more powerful than
your average Joe, and they have story potential, as well...

So, why did I create this?  Well, it's definitely one of the things
people are most often looking for, and many of the other topics in this
game are covered in In-Depth FAQs, so I thought "Why not?"

This info can be found in my bigger FAQ, along with a more in-detail
description of what these guys can do.  I've taken out Attacks,
Equipment, and pretty much everything except how to pick them up and
what they look like.

Okay, note that I mention Chaos Frame a lot throughout this.  This is
NOT Alignment!  Chaos Frame is your Reputation.  To increase your
Chaos Frame, you must liberate strongholds during missions, as opposed
to capturing them.

To liberate, you need to check a Stronghold's info during the mission.
Note the number for Morale.  To liberate the stronghold, you must
roughly match your unit's Alignment with the Morale of the stronghold.
High alignments can liberate towns of high morale, and low alignments
can liberate towns of low morale.

To this end, you'll probably want to keep one or two units with around
Neutral alignments for the purpose of liberation, since it's really
tough to keep fighting and stay Neutral.

Liberating a Stronghold: CF +1/2 point
Capturing a Stronghold: CF -2 points
Enemy Recaptures a Stronghold: CF -2 points

As you can see, if your CF is in the gutter, you're not going to be
able to rebuild it in one mission.  It's a long process.

Well, that said, let's get to the characters.  It's all bare minimum.
Just how to get them, so let's do it.
