1.Updates
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
V 0.6
Hopefully made the title a bit less awful(Word transfers funny into
Notepad and I let GameFAQs do the dirty work). Included info about
favored weapons.

V 0.5
Made the insult to human kind...Er...I mean title. Fixed minor typos
and other stuff.

V 0.4
Added "Other suspicious fellows". Added some info about special classes
and items characters will bring.

V 0.3
Fixed some more formatting and grammatical errors. Added some more
quotes as well.

V 0.2
Actually made this part as well as fixed some typos. Added some death,
omit and reputation quotes.

V 0.1
Got the bulk of the FAQs up. Still need some info on the sayings for
Denim's highest reputation.


2.Intro to the FAQs
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Seeing as I couldn't find any FAQs for the endings of Tactics
Ogre(Either by the fact that there are none, I'm blind, or just very
lazy) and was also really bored so I decided to make this document.

Regardless of whatever some weird pixies tell you I don't actually know
everything(Not now...But very soon...) about how the ending works. But
never fear because you can E-mail at Cortesdragon@hotmail.com with helpful
information. Although I won't answer anything, if the information turns
out to be true I will include it in this FAQs.

Although most sites say that there are 7 endings to Tactics Ogre there
are in fact only 2. However those two endings have many different
variations, which if you really want to could be considered completely
different endings. I however do not. This FAQs will cover how to gain
and manipulate the endings and characters you desire for your next time
through Tactics Ogre.


3.The "Bad" ending
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Denim mourns
This whole ending comes about if Kachua dies either in combat or by
committing suicide. It's basically the scene with Plancy in slow motion
and very sad music. You can't change this part at all.

Foriner sisters know something
If you have Sisteena and/or Selye they/she will report to Moruba that
there is a plot to kill Denim. If you have neither this won't show up.

Assassination
If you fail to unite the people of Valeria(Look below) a gunman will
enter and kill Denim while he is being inaugurated. You can change who
is there by having Shelley, Selye, Sisteena, Deneb, and/or Vice.

Back at Zenobia
Known to many as the "Gilbert" ending. If you unite the people of
Valeria then instead of Denim being shot Gilbert will report to Tristan
that Lodis is getting ready to attack Valeria.

To actually unite the people of Valeria you need to raise Denim's
reputation with the 3 races(Bacrum, Gargastan, Walstanian) to the max.
You can check this by hiring new recruits and clicking on their name,
if the default is at the highest state then that race likes you. The
highest rep for each Alignment is:

L: Most likely you are trusted. All your comments and your activities
are well received.

C: Not only do they agree with your ideals, they have accepted you as a
leader.

N: They are all happy with the idea and accepting it one-hundred
percent.

To make a race like you more have a unit of that race gain levels by
fighting and killing enemies(Training doesn't work I don't think).
However a race will start to dislike you if you attack them. Therefore
to be liked by all races you should fight in random battles against
indistinct monsters or Roslolians who don't count as one of the races.


4.The "Good" ending
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The throne room
Kachua will give a speech as she is crowned Queen. You can't do much to
this scene besides change who is in the room by having Shelley, Selye,
Sisteena, and/or Deneb. If you have Vice he will get his own scene in
which he cuts Kachua's crowning to think about Denim. Olivia also
triggers her own scene which she lives Heigm to find Denim.

The return of the Brunhild
Denim will be standing over Plancy's grave(Back in his stupid costume)
talking about Kachua. If you have one of the Zenobians(Canopus,
Mildain, Guildus) a scene will start in which Denim will see them off.
Canopus does most of the talking, unless he is dead then Mildain takes
over then Guildus. The dialog changes depending on which on them you
have but always ends up in a joke(Some times funny other times just
dumb)That leaves Denim, Mildain and Guildus laughing while Canopus is a
bit pissed.

Comrades
This is the part of the ending that actually changes the most. After
Denim finishes talking about the Brunhild he will talk about some of
his comrades who left Heigm. You will need all of the required people
in normal state(No Lich, Angel knight, Snapshot, Undead, or Retissue)in
order for the scene to occur. Despite whatever class you made them they
will revert back to their starting class. Only one scene will be played
even if you have all the necessary people.

Haborym will either take highest priority or no priority at all
depending on if you see his optional scene. After you take over Heigm
read the Warren report about a double agent. Go to Krizar and Haborym
will tell you why he is really in Valeria. In the ending he will tell
Denim that he will continue to hunt down his brother.

The next set of people all have the same priority but seeing as you
can't get them all in one route it doesn't really matter. In C route
Forcas and Byan tell you that they are going to help people along with
Aloser, if you are missing even one of them(Such as in N route)then
this scene won't happen. In N route Debordes is starting to remember
his past when he was alive, him and Orias are leaving for else where.
In L route Oxyones finally forgives Jenounes then gives Denim a kiss,
the Dragoon tries to redeem his sins.

Zapan is a bit lower in priority and will only come up if you don't
have both Oxyones and Jenounes. He says he wants to find more young
people like Denim which Denim thinks is a little weird coming from
Zapan. Zapan gives Denim a bear hug before heading off.

And last is Presence. If you some how couldn't save anyone or got
slaughtered a few too many times this is the last guy that will show
up. Presence tells you that vengeance is done and that he will return
to his life of helping orphans.


5.How to gain ending changing characters
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
If you haven't noted by now the whole ending of Tactics Ogre is based
on what characters Denim has in his party at the end of the game. This
section covers the aspects of as well as how to gain the ending
changing characters regardless if their role is paramount or just
repugnant.

Denim Mown
Race: Bacrum
Element: Varies
Alignment: N(Changes through the course of the game though)
Starting class: Soldier
Special class: Lord
Special class' favored weapon: Sword
Omit quote: Are you going to get rid of me? I'm your buddy.
Joins: Chapter 1
Denim is the hero of our story and that of course means that he needs
to be kept alive in order to beat the game. His alignment will change
with two(Or one) answers to Leonard's questions during the end of
chapters 1 and 2 which will in turn allow which classes he can change
to. To turn Denim into the very powerful Lord class Kachua/Bersalia
must die in anyway before returning to Fiduc from Banisha in Chapter 4.

Bersalia Overis
Race: Bacrum
Element: Varies
Alignment: L
Starting class: High Priestess
Special class: Princess
Special class' favored weapon: Staff
Omit quote: I can't run away. I have a responsibility.
Death quote: Denim, I'm so sorry. I was so selfish...But I love you...
Joins: Chapter 4 all
Denim's adopted sister also known as Kachua. She will fight on Lans'
side at Banisha in chapter 4 depending on how you answered Moruba's
question at Banhamuba. If you said you couldn't fight her she will show
up, if you say you could then she won't. If you don't kill her or if
she wasn't in the battle Denim will have a talk with her in which you
either need to tell her you lover her or that she should go with
you(I'm not really sure what triggers the choice). If you tell her what
she wants to hear then she will join your party as the god like
Princess class, other wise she will kill herself. However if she dies
you can turn Denim into his Lord class and also get the Shotgun. You
can't dismiss her once she joins.

Vice Bozeg
Race: Walstanian
Element: Varies
Alignment: N
Starting class: Soldier
Special class: Warrior
Special class' favored weapon: Sword
Omit quote: You still got a grudge against me?
Death quote: Kachua...I have always loved you...
Joins: Chapter 3 L
Vice does the opposite of whatever Denim does. If Denim becomes
Ronway's dog then Vice will be go by his own ideals, however if Denim
is the one to take the chaotic path then Vice will take his place as
the puppet. In the 3rd chapter of the Law route Vice will join the
party in his Warrior class when you find Mildain, Guildus and Warren.
In the other games he will die either by public execution or at the
hands of Ronway's bodyguards.

Canopus Wolff
Race: Zenobian
Element: Wind
Alignment: L
Starting class: Eagle Man
Omit quote: Really? This is a joke, isn't it? Are you serious?
Death quote: Thanks Denim, it's been fun...
Joins: Chapter 1
The wind rider from the first game is back for more! Canopus will join
your party when you first enter Tanmas, filling in the gap as your 10th
place person. Eagle man is very similar to Hawk man but seems to have
higher stats. This class also learns the special skills Wind shot at
level 10 and Tornado at level 20 which both cost Canopus' level in HP.

Mildain Walhone
Race: Zenobian
Element: Varies
Alignment: L
Starting class: White knight
Special class' favored weapon: Sword
Omit quote: I see...I am very sad to hear that...I guess this is good
bye...
Death quote: Keep on moving Denim...You are so close.
Joins: Chapter 3 All
During chapter 3 Mildain is waiting in Amorika with Warren and
Guildus(Or not) and will join you once you get there. However when you
actually get there depends on which route of the game you took, in N it
is very early but in C and L it is more towards the end. White knight
is simply a beefed up Knight which can come in quite handy.

Guildus Burn
Race: Zenobian
Element: Varies
Alignment: L
Starting class: White knight
Special class' favored weapon: Sword
Omit quote: No way! You don't deserve a great warrior like me!
Death quote: Kill the Roslolians...You can do it...
Joins: Chapter 3 L and C
In the Law and Chaotic routes of Chapter 3 Guildus will be with Mildain
in Amorika. In chapter 3 N he will be experimented on by the
necromancer Nybbas and you will be forced to kill him. Although he
won't join you in that route you still get his Isleberg sword.

Donald Presence
Race: Walstanian
Element: Earth
Alignment: L
Starting class: Exorcist
Omit quote: I have already given my soul to. I will do whatever you
say. Are you sure about this?
Death quote: I have taken my revenge...I can finally rest in peace.
Joins: Chapter 1
Presence is running around outside Krizar fighting Nybbas' undead. If
he lives through the battle then he will join you other wise you get a
cleric(Who doesn't change the ending)in his place.

Sisteena Foriner
Race: Bacrum
Element: Wind
Alignment: N
Starting class: Amazon
Special class: Wind Shaman
Special class' favored weapon: Staff
Omit quote: What is this? You are becoming like the Cardinal!
Death quote: Sorry...I cannot keep my promise...
Joins: Chapter 2 C
During the first chapter she will be running around Rime and you will
have to save her but even if you do she will run off. Later in chapter
2 C Byan will suggest that you save her, if you agree you will fight in
an optional battle. Once you reach Bodo Sisteena will ask to join your
forces along with Forcas and Byan, if you say yes they all join, if you
say no one of them do. In chapter 4 after the battles at Banisha talk
with Moruba at Coritani and ask him about forbidden magic he will turn
Sisteena into a Shaman that can use Pray-H when you go back to
Banhamuba. Once she is a Shaman take her to Damsa to gain the Forbidden
magic Air cry.

Selye Foriner
Race: Bacrum
Element: Fire
Alignment: N
Starting class: Valkyrie
Special class: Fire Shaman
Special class' favored weapon: Staff
Joins: Chapter 3 C and chapter 4 N
In chapter 3 C head to fort Bodo to drive out the Dark Knight Oz. Once
he runs back to Fiduc Selye will ask to join your group. In chapter 3 N
Selye will be under Oz's charm spell and is right in the middle of
about 4 temple knights as well as Oz. Even if you kill Oz and save her
this time she runs off. During chapter 4 you can read about pirates in
the Warren report and then head Kadoriga for Selye to join you. Like
with Sisteena you can go back to Banhamuba to turn her into a Shaman
that knows Pray-Z. Go to Bodo to gain the Forbidden magic Nova+. In the
L route there is a somewhat secret scene you can watch in the Warren
report that hints that Selye was raped and murdered by the Dark
knights.

Shelley Foriner
Race: Bacrum
Element: Earth
Alignment: L
Starting class: Siren
Special class: Earth Shaman
Special class' favored weapon: Staff
Omit quote: Aren't you being selfish? After all you are a mere
terrorist...I expected as much.
Death quote: Sorry Denim...I was so difficult...But I am thankful to
you...
Joins: Chapter 4 all
During chapter 4 Shelley will attack you at Banhamuba but if you knock
her under 20 HP without killing her she will runaway. Anytime after
that but before going to Banisha head to Baramus, go into training, and
cast Storm. If you have Olivia then she and Denim will find Shelley.
Like her other sisters she can be turned into a Shaman this time
learning Pray-B. Go with her to Gekko to gain the Forbidden spell
Quake.

Olivia Foriner
Race: Bacrum
Element: Water
Alignment: L
Starting class: Priestess
Special class: Water Shaman
Special class' favored weapon: Staff
Omit quote: You think I don't have enough magic power, do you?
Death quote: Filaha, please forgive the foolish people...
Joins: Chapter 4 all
After you either bust trough or are escorted to Bringantes there will
be some scenes with Denim and Plancy. After the scenes Olivia will talk
about her childhood with Denim and how they were very close when they
were kids. If either Sisteena and/or Selye are with you they will also
come in and talk with Olivia. Anyway she will join you right before you
leave the castle. Olivia can also be turned into a Shaman that knows
Pray-G. If you bring her to Gerdo you can find the Forbidden magic Ice
cloud.

Haborym Rams
Race: Roslolian
Element: Fire
Alignment: L
Starting class: Sword master
Omit quote: I guess I didn't do a good job for you...
Death quote: Mother forgive me...I could not avenge your death...
Joins: Chapter 3 all
You will meet Haborym in all routes but where depends on which route.
In C route he will be fighting a gang of Ninja at Vahanna and mainly
acts like a nimrod by trying to fight all of them on his own. In L
route he is fighting Ozma at Rime and still has the great idea that he
should get himself killed, the enemies are more spread out so saving
him isn't as hard in C route. In N route go to Kirzar to see a scene
with Leonard and a bitchy Valkyrie then head to Kadoriga to save the
Valkyrie in which in turn will make her join along with a few other
people including Haborym. Haborym can not change jobs and therefore
gains every level as a Sword master making his very good with skills
that use DEX such as Charm and Fudo.

Zapan Illydus
Race: Walstanian
Element: Wind
Alignment: C
Starting class: Berzerker
Omit quote: That's not the way to do things! Are you insulting me!?
Death quote: I made it this far...I have no regrets...Denim don't
die...
Joins: Chapter 2 or 4 L
Zapan will be in the middle of the enemy forces at Kadoriga and it's
your job to save him. If he lives then he will ask to join you. If you
say yes then he joins but you won't be able to change his class until
you return to Amorika. If you said no then he will leave and later
attack you in chapter 4, this time you must get him under 20 HP and he
will join, but this time with better equipment and more levels. During
the C route he will show up to fight you and pretty much be an ass but
will later be back stabbed by Vice.

Jenounes Apatizer
Race: Gargastan
Element: Fire
Alignment: N
Starting class: Dragoon
Omit quote: This is a bad joke. I will never forget this...
Death quote: I knew this day would come...I will be happy in heaven.
Joins: Chapter 3 L
After the battles at Bringantes during chapter 3 an old man will tell
you that you are their enemy. If you disagree with him he will ask
Jenounes to join your forces.

Oxyones Lavin
Race: Gargastan
Element: Water
Alignment: L
Starting class: Dragon tamer
Omit quote: I regret trusting you. Do whatever you want!
Death quote: The world is not only for human beings...Remember that...
Joins: Chapter 4 L
After the story battle at Brumor get in a random battle there. If you
bring Jenounes with you then you will fight Oxyones and her 4 dragons.
If you knock Oxyones under 20 HP then you will have the option of
having her join along with any living dragons. If you didn't get
Jenounes or if he died you can still fight Oxyones in random battles
but she won't join.

Aloser Danya
Race: Walstanian
Element: Wind
Alignment: N
Starting class: Archer
Omit quote: I am no afraid of death. But I chose the wrong person to
work for.
Death quote: Don't forget Baramus...Denim, I trust you...
Joins: Chapter 2 C
During the first battle of chapter 2 C Aloser will attack you with her
gang. If you knock her under 20 HP without killing her then she will
join as an NPC. If you do this then she will fight along side Denim at
Tanmas. If she lives this time she will join your team. Later at the
end of the chapter if go the N route she will leave your party. In the
L route she will team up with Vice in order to have vengeance but will
be killed when the Dark knights attack Rime.

Forcas Rhende
Race: Bacrum
Element: Fire
Alignment: N
Starting class: Knight
Omit quote: It was my mistake to believe you!
Death quote: It is time...To go into an eternal sleep.
Joins: Chapter 2 C
When you reach Krizar in chapter 2 C Forcas will be locked away. After
the battle you will save him and he will ask you to go with him to save
his allies, it's your choice if you want to though. Regardless if you
help them or not Forcas(Or Byan or Sisteena) will ask to join you when
you get to Bodo.

Byan Ohwan
Race: Bacrum
Element: Earth
Alignment: N
Starting class: Wizard
Omit quote: I understand. I'll just get in your way right?
Joins: Chapter 2 C
If you agree with Forcas to save his allies then you will be sent to an
island to save Byan. Byan will be smack in the middle of the enemy
forces and you have the somewhat hard job of trying to save his skin.
If he lives then he will also ask for you to save Sisteena. Whether you
save her or not Byan will join you at Bodo.

Orias Obderhode
Race: Gargastan
Element: Fire
Alignment: L
Starting class: Priestess
Omit quote: You think I'm worth nothing. I'm not saying anything about
this...
Death quote: Debordes...I wanted to save you...I love you...
Joins: Chapter 3 N
Nybbas' estranged daughter. She will be in Ashton during chapter 3 N
and you will need to save her, but with her terror knight brother
guarding her it's not as insanely hard as some of the others(*Cough*
Selye *Cough*).

Debordes Oberhode
Race: Gargastan
Element: Earth
Alignment: C
Starting class: Terror knight
Omit quote: If you are waiting for me to say something then you are
wasting your time.
Death quote: Orias...Sorry I could not protect...You...
Joins: Chapter 3 N
The undead son of necromancer Nybbas and sister to Orias. He will be
fighting Guildus and a gang of undead with his sister, Orias, in Ashton
during chapter 3 N. If you save both him and his sister he will join
you, other wise he will leave without saying much. He has gained all of
his levels as a Terror knight but because he doesn't meet the 30 kills
requirement changing him to another class will not allow him to turn
back until you do.

Deneb Rhobe
Race: Zenobian
Element: Fire
Alignment: C
Starting class: Sorceress
Special class' favored weapon: Staff
Omit quote: You are so mean(Heart) I don't like you anymore!
Death quote: Hey this was my favorite body~(Heart) How dare you.
Joins: Chapter 4 all
Guess she didn't die in the first one...Anyway during chapter 4 read
about Deneb's shop in the Warren report. From now on Deneb's shop will
replace a normal city's shop depending on the day as followed:

Griate: 1, 2
Armorika: 3,4
Krizar: 5,6
Baramus: 7,8
Ashton: 9,10
Coritani: 11,12
Brigantes: 13,14
Rime: 15,16
Fiduc: 17,18
William: 19,20
Heigm: 21,22
Grimby: 23,24
Babisha: 25

If you went to the right place then you should be in Deneb's shop which
sells very rare items. You can also sell Glass pumpkins you find in
order to recruit Pumpkin heads. To actually get her into your team you
need to buy any 250 items from her and then a "Join" option will open
up. If you hired at least 10 Pumpkin heads at some point she will also
come with some good fire based equipment and spells. Be warned though,
her shop closes for good when she joins your party.


6.Other suspicious fellows
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
There are some other characters you can recruit who have special
portraits as well as a place in the Warren report. Until my last time
through I thought some characters, such as Haborym, had nothing to do
with the ending. But when I finally saw an ending with Haborym I
started to think maybe these other people could some how take a role in
the ending. However this is still just speculation.

Ganb Backstein
Race: Gargastan
Element: Water
Alignment: N
Starting class: Beast master
Special class' favored weapon: Whip
Omit quote: I should never have trusted you!
Joins: Chapter 4 all
After you save(or don't) Kachua at Banisha read the rumor in the Warren
report about how the Dark knights are salvaging sunken ships. Now head
to Grimby and you should meet a Gunner named Rendal who is under attack
by Martym, save him and he will tell you about a thief who ran off with
the powerful Rifle. Go back to the warren report and read about the
thief in Nimuraba, head there next. When you get there you will meet
Ganb along with some monsters including his substitute Griffins ObdaJr
and BeldaJr. Like most other people you fight and want to join knock
him under 20 HP without killing him, but also you must make sure not to
kill his Griffins. After the battle Ganb will join you with ObdaJr,
BeldaJr, and the almighty Rifle. Like Mildain and Guildus his class is
just a stronger version of a normal class, this time being Beast tamer.

Radlum
Race: Indistinct
Element: Water
Alignment: N
Starting class: Warlock
Omit quote: After all, you never asked me to join, I was the one always
asking...But...
Death quote: What have I done...I have to begin from...
Joins: Chapter 4 all
Read about The Hell Gate in the Warren report then make your way down
there. On the second floor of the dungeon Radlum will be under attack
from monsters and undead. Like most computer controlled characters he
will lose all sense of reason and attack the enemies head on with his
staff. If you can save his life he will ask to join your party, say yes
to have him come along with his Dragon magic spell, Wipe out.
