Here is a breakdown of each personality facet available in Celestial Crowns! Pronouns will alternate for readability’s sake.

Strengths

Terra’s strengths are what make her a good leader and are imperative for letting her lead Laute to peace or victory in battle.

Flaws

No one is perfect, and Terra is no exception. Terra’s flaws make him human and allow him to learn and grow as a person.

Ruling Style

As a Monarch, Terra must make difficult decisions every day. These facets will determine how they rule their kingdom, which will in turn determine its fate.

Sneak Peek 

Next week, please look forward to the intro to the first love interest, the royal advisor. 😉  In his update I will give an introduction to the route, the character, and the relationship between him and Terra.

Personality Facets:

Strengths

Terra’s strengths are what make her a good leader and are imperative for letting her lead Laute to peace or victory in battle.

Confident. (CON) Choosing choices with the “confident” facet will make Terra more sure of himself and unlock scenes where he can try or say things he wouldn’t usually.

Practical. (PRA) The “practical” facet will emphasize Terra’s more logical nature. They will be able to put emotion aside to focus on the pros and cons of each situation, unlocking scenes where they’re able to suggest ideas that would normally be outside of their comfort zone.

Witty. (WIT) Choosing “witty” choices will bring out Terra’s sense of humor and charm, endearing some to her and exasperating others. These choices will guide the scene to a more humorous outcome.

Flaws

No one is perfect, and Terra is no exception. Terra’s flaws make him human and allow him to learn and grow as a person.

Impulsive. (IMP) Being “impulsive” can lead Terra to make choices that they might ultimately regret, but it will sure feel good in the moment. 

Naive. (NAI) As a young monarch, Terra does not know everything. “Naive” choices highlight her still developing ability to see the world, and people, for what they truly are.

Spoiled. (SPO) Terra has been waited on hand and foot all his life, and sometimes this gets to his head. Being “spoiled” might indulge him in more luxuries and opportunities, but it could also ruin his ability to empathize with his people and make him unlikeable as a King.

Ruling Style

As a Monarch, Terra must make difficult decisions every day. These facets will determine how they rule their kingdom, which will in turn determine its fate.

Aggressive. (AGG) Ruling “aggressively” will push her subjects and council to the limits in an effort to make Laute the best kingdom it can be. 

Strategic. (STR) A “strategic” minded Terra will think very carefully about his decisions and all the ways it might affect Laute and its people. He will rely heavily on his council and consider every option before going through with something.

Gentle. (GEN) Terra can also rule “gently,” emphasizing peace and focusing on improving Laute from within, without focusing on how they are related to the rest of the world.
