Characters in Triangle Strategy are not all recruited through the same means. You’ll need to know how to recruit each character, so you can make the most informed decisions during your playthrough.

Factors That Influence Recruitment
In Triangle Strategy, there are two major factors that will influence which characters join your team: your chosen routes and Serenoa’s Conviction. You’ll want to know ahead of time which characters are unlockable through which routes, so you can tip the Scales of Conviction in the right direction come voting time.
Additionally, certain characters will require Serenoa to have specific Conviction stats for them to want to join your party.
How to Raise Each of Serenoa’s Convictions
