Heroines and Non-Heroines

Basically, player characters divided into heroines and non-heroines. There are 6 heroine characters in this game while the others are non-heroine. Those heroines are Asuna, Lisbeth, Silica, Leafa, Shinon, and Klein. As you play this game, you will notice that there is a big difference between heroines and non-heroines.

-          Non-heroines can’t participate on the floor boss battle as your partner but all heroines able to do that.
-          Heroines and non-heroines have a different inventory item. Non-heroine characters only have a weapon slot, an armor slot, and a talisman slot while heroine characters have all 10 equipment slots.  As a replacement, non-heroine characters will get twice effect from the equipment to cover their weakness. Equipment with +10 STR stats will raise their strength by 20.
-          Heroines will hear all your battle commands (R button on battle) but non-heroines will ignore your battle commands most of the time.
-          Non-heroines battle style chart (attack type, defense type and support type) will reset to balance every time they leave your group but heroines won’t.
-          Non-heroines will level up as the time passes but heroines won’t. Heroines will only get some experience points for every floor boss battle even if they don’t participate.
-          You could team up with heroine characters every time but you couldn’t do that with non-heroine characters. You can’t invite non-heroine characters to your party when they are leveling up or when they are sleeping.
-          Heroine characters will able to learn special sword skills (lvl 6 sword skills) as the time passes but non-heroine characters won’t able to do that.

Maximum chart of one specific battle style is 120. So you could say that Asuna in the picture above has 120 times praise at debuff, about 100 times at stun, and about 40 times on debuff sword skill.
