O============================================================================O

The Star Ocean universe has numerous different endings, depending on what
characters you have and their affection toward each other.

In Star Ocean: First Departure this is also true. Although it doesn't have
nearly as many endings as Star Ocean: The Second Story (for PSX) or
Star Ocean: Second Evolution (for PSP) it still has quite a few.

Affection Levels, or AL, can be changed through choices made in Private
Actions, or PAs, as well as through winning major battles. This guide will
list all the Private Actions available as well as whether the PA changes
the AL, and who it changes it for.

Most PAs will change a certain characters AL toward RODDICK. It is rare that a
PA will change RODDICK's AL toward other characters (although there are a few
that do).

This guide is being made while I'm writing my walkthrough (which is why it's
taking so long to complete), but this gives you the benefit of ALL the PAs
available.

However, there are so many combinations of characters you have that it is
very possible I'm missing some PAs so if you see one that I don't have here
please let me know!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy all the PAs in this game. 

NOTE: These PA's don't give any plot spoilers, but if you don't want to know
exactly what the PA is about, you probably shouldn't continue reading, as my
guide will give you a summary of each PA.

MISSING: Acording to Shaneth21's PA Guide, there are 107 PA's in the game.
I'm missing 8 of them. Which 8? I have no clue, as his guide isn't very
organized and has no summary. If you notice I'm missing any, please let me
know!

I'm also missing a couple AL for various ASHLAY PA's, please be patient for
them. It takes a while for me to get them. If by any chance you have the AL
for one of the PA's in which I don't, send me an e-mail (confirm it's the
real AL change by telling me HOW you got it and I'll give you credit)

Search (CI000) for e-mail instructions.

Q). How do I get the ILIA/RONYX ending?

My name is Rikki, and my e-mail is [email protected]

Feel free to e-mail me any questions/comments/advice/mistakes. 
However, when you e-mail me please arrange your subject header like this:

SOFD: "Subject Here"

Putting the SOFD: in front of your subject will help me filter e-mails related
to the Star Ocean: First Departure guides/walkthroughs I've done. Will I read
your e-mail if you don't do this? Probably not, I'm paranoid so I don't
read e-mails if I don't know who they're from. Adding the SOFD will allow me
to read it.

Please send in any PA's not here, even if you don't have the AL change. If I
don't know about them, I can't add them, can I?
