INTRODUCTION
___________________________________________________________________________
���������������������������������������������������������������������������
I've never felt so alive doing a FAQ/Guide I'll have to say I am more than
motivated to get this through to the end; Dark Dawn is a very simple game
that offers not too litte nor too much. Puzzles are reasonably easier to
tackle and battles can be monotonous but w/ summons almost similar to the
Final Fantasy series (I'd say FF4 DS) you'd feel right @ home summoning
like there is no tomorrow! Overall a worthy sequel!
This guide will focus on getting you from the start till the end! This is
also a very basic guide; more to the point and precise so hopefully you'll
not be missing anything rare (especially Djinns) along the way. Have fun,
go knock yourself out and stay Golden forever!

BASICS (00^)
___________________________________________________________________________
�|����������������|��������������������������������������������������������
| PERSONAE (PE%) |
'----------------'
There are a total of eight playable characters! These are just summarize
introductions to each and can be categorized as spoilers! It is bare-min.
now but will flourish over time adding more information.
� MATTHEW -- EARTH
------------------
This is Isaac's son just like his father he is well-versed in the Earthen
Art or whatever... He doesn't talk and you'll have to control his emotion
or facial expression which do not do anything much and the response you'll
get from your peers most of the time are almost always negative. :\
� KARIS - WIND
--------------
Karis can control the wind and conjure spells like Whirlwind and Tornadoes
(cool, huh?) I wish I could do the same so I can blow away all the idiots
in my life! Karis behaves and acts like a mother to both Matt and Ty.
� TYRELL -- FIRE
----------------
Garet's son, he's prone to creating trouble as well as creating fireballs,
can't seem to keep his temper in check but I'm sure deep down he is nice
and all just a little reckless.
� RIEF -- WATER
---------------
Mia's son whom I thought was a "daughter" at first but oh well, this guy
here controls the element of Water and is able to douse flames and fire w/
his Psynergy. Probably the more cautious, logical one; the opposite of Ty-
rell.

| BATTLE MECHANICS + BUFFS & DEBUFFS (BM%) |
'------------------------------------------'
Not gonna cover everything since the manual is there for a reason. You did
bought the game, right?
-- PSYNERGY AND DJINNI SYSTEM --
� PSYNERGY
----------
Psynergy can both be used in and out of battle but there's only a handful.
Spells like Fireball can be used to ignite or trigger traps/contraption
while the Wind Adept's Whirlwind spell can be used to elevate object like
the "Floating Flower" or whatever it is called.
� DJINNI
--------
In all honesty I don't really care which is the proper way to spell what
is singular and what is plural when referring to Djinn, for singular I'll
call it DJINNI and plural will be called DJINNIS. Ok?
Djinnis need to be acquired; sometimes in hard to reach places or even in
a random encounter in a particular off-beaten path. I will of course note
down if a particular Djinni can be acquired etc, etc.
� USING DJINNIS
---------------
Once you've acquired the Djinnis you can set them up under the Djinn menu.
Setting up Djinn will allow a character to change class and in the process
altering the character's stats. Eh, play around I am no pro at this and
most likely I will just use what is best for my party at that point of
time.
� SET & STANDBY
---------------
Setting a Djinn to a character will allow him to possess new Psynergies,
while allowing a Djinn to go on Standby will make one lose a couple of
their Psynergy spells. What's the point of putting them on Standby then?
Well it allows YOU TO SUMMON powerful creatures pretty much like those in
the Final Fantasy series by Square albeit much, much better and probably
more beautiful than what Square-Enix could come up with nowadays.
You can also do "Set & Standby" in battle too but I like doing it out of
battle and summoning them on the battlefield the first chance I got it.
It's a little broken but whatever.

| TIPS & HINTS (TH%) |
'--------------------'
Golden rules for the new adventurers these aren't sure-fire or sure-win
tips or anything but they're handy to keep in mind when travelling all
over Weyard!
� SAVE, SAVE, SAVE!
-------------------
As far as I know you can practically save ANYWHERE in the game so take
good advantage of this feature, if you think you're nearing a boss fight
(I'll definitely inform you if you're using this guide) -- SAVE! And do
not be stingy with the slots use up all three (you can always delete when
one of them became obselete).
� TALK TO EVERY ONE IN TOWN!
----------------------------
If you're looking to complete your Encyclopedia then ensure that you talk
to every single person you come across, even signboards, bookshelves and
whatnot! This is the only way to actually have a bearing on where to go
next and at the same time to expand the Encyclopedia.
� DON'T BE AFRAID TO ABUSE YOUR PSYNERGY!
-----------------------------------------
Psynergy are automatically refill as you walk around or if you found a Psy
Stone you can touch 'em to completely replenish your PP.
� DON'T ESCAPE FROM BATTLE UNLESS YOU REALLY HAVE TO!
-----------------------------------------------------
The old saying of RPG is: "if you run away too often you will never be the
experienced fighter that you are" and eventually you will find that even
overcoming a couple of cheap enemies becomes quite a chore; two words: lvl
up!
� DON'T SPEND MORE THAN YOU HAVE TO!
------------------------------------
Save your money! Sometimes equipment can be found in dungeons; this is how
I play my game anyway, I can't really dictate how you should play yours
but as a general rule try to use your best judgment when purchasing things
in shop. If a particular weapon only raises your STAT by a couple of no.
then IMHO don't bother even though the abilities/magic may be tempting
you're still better off equipping something better.

After getting all of those introduction out of the way you will finally
be in control of Isaac's son, Matthew. To proceed w/ the story just head
on up above the ladder to where everyone is. Regardless of your expression
this does not really affect the game much but you'll have different dia-
logues.
Tyrell will get himself into trouble and you will have to trouble yourself
to save him, what a chain of unfortunate events. Proceed into the Cabin
and snatch up these stuffs:
� Leather Cap -- Given to you by Karis.
� Padded Gloves
� Short Sword
� SUN SAGA 1 (!)
� An Herb
(!) The Sun Saga books will retell you the tales of the Warrior Of Vale
this is probably something the developer added if you have not played the
first two games in the series.

While the (PADDED GLOVES) can be found two floors above also in a chest.

In the main living room head over to the bookshelves and grab the rare and
awesome (SUN SAGA 1)���to view it just use it like how you would use any
normal item.

| # AN HERB |
'-----------'
The (HERB) can be obtained from a pot in the vegetable field, it's the pot
near to the wooden fence.

Head out to the right and meet up w/ the daddies for more scene before you
are finally able to start saving Tyrell.

Just as you're about to proceed further Garet and Isaac will stop to in-
form you that they sense the presence of monsters. Random encounters will
now begin. This 1F is pretty easy just slide and jump the gap(s) also to
make things more easier set Matt's Psynergy (MOVE) to the L or R shoulder
button.
Feel free to use the Psynergy Stone if you want! Once you're out of the
cave go down the stairs and (MOVE) the pillar to the middle so you can
"jump gap" to reach the other side. Isaac and Garet will show up again
to congratulate you! What awaits you next is the TANGLEWOOD. Save your
game if you want.

It may sound intimidating but the puzzles setup in this "dungeon" aren't

take this opportunity to have a blast with the daddies' Djinnis as it will
only be lended to you for a short stint.

Do you have any questions? If you do then please send me an e-mail and I
will try my best to answer whatever questions I can. Please look through
this space before sending me a question because chances are what you have
in mind may have already been answered. Thanks!
� HOW DO YOU USE A SUMMON IN BATTLE?
------------------------------------
You will have to acquire the necessary Djinni first, secondly have those
Djinni on STANDBY by accessing the menu under Djinn select a Djinn and
choose to have it on standby. Go into battle and you are ready to unleash.
Take note that you will lose one or a couple of Psynergy when you have the
Djinnis on Standby, and yes you can do "Set and Standby" in battle too.
Just play around or read up the manual.
� IT'S DJINN FOR PLURAL AND DJINNIS FOR SINGULAR!
-------------------------------------------------
Not to be rude but whatever, I don't care.
� YOU MISSED OUT ON THESE DJINNIS!
----------------------------------
Send me an e-mail and I'll update with ample credit to you. Thank you!
