Party Member Recruitment Schedule:
Each party member awakens to a unique Archetype, usable by any party member once unlocked. Early recruits may be initially non-playable, unlike later members who awaken just before their first combat appearance.
-
Storhl (Warrior): Joins on June 5th during the Border Fort events, but his Archetype awakens the following day, June 6th, in the Nord Mines. Until then, he's AI-controlled.
-
Grius: Joins after the Border Fort events, becoming combat-ready on June 6th. While you can equip an Archetype on Grius after Storhl awakens, he doesn't undergo a traditional Archetype awakening.
-
Hulkenberg (Knight): Interacts with the party from June 10th, fully joining and awakening her Archetype during the next day's boss fight on June 11th.
-
Heismay (Thief): First encountered during your free time in Martira. His Archetype awakens, and he joins the party, on July 4th within the town's main dungeon.
-
Junah (Masked Dancer): Appears throughout the game, finally awakening and joining your party on August 13th.
-
Eupha (Summoner): Her recruitment offers more flexibility. Complete the Dragon Temple Dungeon anytime between August 19th and September 4th during your Viraga Island free time to recruit her for the final boss. Note that her Bond can only be initiated after this period.
-
Basilio (Berserker): Awakens and joins on September 11th during the Saint's Day events. Combat use is available the following day, if desired.
