Simon

Story
Despite what is insinuated in the Prologue, he is the main character of this game. When he was 15, the Incubus King's invasion started, so he is old enough to know that the things back then weren't much better. A somewhat idealistic person (at heart, at least) but with an eminently practical mind, he is determined to make a difference. To do that, he doesn't have any problems working with various organizations, although he does not always share their objectives.

Simon is a widowed middle-aged man with a past filled both with determination about doing the right thingTM and regrets about his own failures, both real and imagined. He is a man with various intellectual interests, like theology and business.

He describes himself as an older soldier:

with many regrets:

As would happen with any other intelligent being, others see him differently. The queen of Ari-Yhilin, Janine says:

Riala remarks on some of his flaws, as she has known him for a while as an adversary:

He is a patient man, who puts very little value in the opinions of most people. He is also a very good listener, as even the Queen can attest.

As can be seen during his captivity in the Orgasmic Empire, he is also a survivor and has a great instinct of self-preservation. Another notable characteristic for his age is his remarkable willingness to learn new things in different subjects. In that sense, sometimes he feels more like a scholar than a warrior.

Tactics
Simon naturally has high defense(both physical and magic) and he's stuck in most/all battles. He actually has higher than average attack but since he's always around with Aka (who between high crit rate and naturally gain ATK faster than Simon), he doesn't shine until his own chapter.

His ability to equip different weapons and armor lets him modify his stats to suit the needs of the party (although this has relatively limited use for most of the game since he doesn't have any options to amp his MAG for instance).

All his "strikes" (including precise) can crit and therefore almost completely nullify his attack command since they're so cheap and have a status effect as well. Battlefield Medicine should only be used for healing status effects, it scales off MAG but is generally very weak throughout most of the game, consider amping AGI, by equipment of getting caches, to support this skill as the speed bonus for this skill is relatively low. Commanding Presence has a lower stun rate but works really well for mobs. When he gets his upgraded skills, he becomes an even stronger support fighter, with Unified Strike to land a number of status effects and a party wide reviving, status effect clearing healing skill.

Chendler - I use him for Stunning Strike and later for the revival skill when he finally gets it. He can tank some hits, so I concentrate healing on squishier targets. Battlefield Medicine is probably the third skill I use, when Stun fails and an opponent applies Poison on a character. The rest of the skills I have not even touched aside from testing what they do.

Some tips:


 * 1) He's the only character that can do Silencing Strike which can be very useful.
 * 2) Stunning Strike and later Commanding Presence are a good way to impede an attack, you might also consider blinding strike sometimes.
 * 3) Rebuke and King's Rebuke can clean lust status effects and King's Rebuke can remove the same status effects on the whole party.
 * 4) Suppress Lust is a good way to refill Simon's MP. You should consider using lust increasing skills on him from other members to speed-up the process especially since the version 0.15 where its cost has changed.
 * 5) Precise Strike is a little bit expensive but sometimes you just need to do damage as fast as possible.
