Is there a way to see Silas naked? I only got him shirtless.
There is, yeah. I'll outline the steps below:
When your character has the nightmare and has the option to talk to Silas, you can see him naked if you enter without knocking. However, you have to have him like you enough.
With Silas, you'll want lots of intelligence. This gives you more chances to get on his good side. When starting a new game, choose "I remember". This gives a point in both intelligence and wisdom.
The next choice doesn't matter. Strong is what I normally pick though.
At the next menu, ask all of the questions! These should be: "Grasp","Between place?" and "Who are you?". Asking all of these grants a point in intelligence.
At the next menu, choose "Knowledge" as what you desire. This gives you another point in both intelligence and wisdom.
At the next menu, you can choose any. "Friends" or "A lover" both grant one charisma, while the others grant nothing, so might as well pick one of them.
Name and customize your character. These don't grant any stats, so pick freely.
Wait or follow road until you meet Silas (Exploring the field is fine too). Do tell Silas the "Truth", this grants two points of favor with Silas.
Next, you should get to ask Silas some questions in the carriage. I don't think these matter outside of asking about "Magic", though I recommend clicking through them all anyway just in case. But definitely do ask about "Magic", and do accept the offer to learn magic from Silas ("Yes").
If you have enough intelligence points, the lesson will give you three points of favor with Silas. You'll know you had enough intelligence if your character starts glowing.
When you reach the toast, choose "To magic". This gives three points of favor.
When you reach the tent, choose "Cuddle with Silas". This gives two points of favor, and based on which position you want Silas in can also grant charisma.
Bath options aren't important in this situation, but lavender will grant more intelligence and wisdom and we seem to be maxing those anyway.
While washing the dishes, choose "Joke". Being "sincere" only grants three favor, while joking gives five.
After the dream, choose "Go tell Silas". Immediately after, choose "Go in". Silas should be naked upon your entry, and disappointed that you didn't knock
Thanks a lot! I did most of the stuff that seemed obvious for gaining his interest, like the first choices regarding intelligence, truth, learning magic... But I didn't know minor choices affect the stats. That must have made me miss it the first time. Can we see Orion naked too? I'm guessing if it happens, it will involve initial decisions that increase strength and stamina
We can indeed see Orion naked. Fortunately, he's an easier one.
For Orion, you only need two things: High charisma, and get lost before orientation.
You can actually just follow the Silas guide, with two exceptions. First, choose "Love" as what you desire instead of "Knowledge". This gives charisma. Second, when you are at the tent scene and select "Cuddle with Silas", choose to make Silas the "Little spoon". This grants more charisma than making him the big spoon.
By the way, in the Silas guide the route I gave gives more intelligence than is actually necessary, so with the first change you can still see Silas before getting Orion.
The next choice after you finish the altered Silas path should be Silas offering a tour at the academy. Neither choice here matters, though I recommend accepting.
If you didn't give Silas your last name in the carriage ride, you'll get to make one when you talk to the woman at the admin office. Once you finish with her, you'll get to try to navigate the halls on your own. Do so incorrectly by only choosing "Right" and you'll be lost in no time and successfully find Orion in a towel.
Orion will take you to his room so he can change. When he asks you to turn around, choose "Don't". This option only appears if you have high enough charisma. He'll ask again, to which you should choose "Don't". Orion will then lower his towel and his opinion of you, so maybe not the right choice if you want to be his best friend.
