Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is a throwback to the more classic JRPGs, with it being a spiritual successor to the Suikoden series. One of the biggest drawing points of that series was being able to recruit 108 characters for your army. Hundred Heroes is no different, as you will be able to find a total of 120 characters to join your party, some of which can join you in battle, and others that help you out in other ways. This page will provide a list of every single character in the game that can be recruited.
Where to Find All Recruitable Characters¶
Of the 120 characters to find in Eiyuden Chronicle, 46 of them will join as part of the main story, so you won’t have to do anything to get them. However, that still leaves plenty of other characters that don’t do that, so you will need to find them in the game’s world. Some of these extras will simply join upon talking with them, but others will require you to do something before they actually hop aboard. There are even some characters that you might run into earlier on, who might not want to join you until much later.
We’ve broken this up into the main events of the game where new characters become available to recruit. This also includes those that will join automatically as part of the story, so you can keep track of how close you are to bagging all 120 characters.
Initial Characters¶
These characters are your initial group, available as soon as you start the game. Note that the prologue will have a few extra characters that aren’t available until later. Additionally, while we’ll provide notes on how to recruit every character here, click on their name to be taken to a more in-depth guide for specific characters.
