We recruit some rather obscure characters.
New Recruits:
Pesmerga - Mysterious hunter looking for Yuber. Appears where Neclord was after Neclord is defeated.
Crowley - Mysterious magician. Hiding in a secret room in Qlon Temple. Can only be recruited once the base is at final stage.
Clive - Mysterious drifter. Randomly appears at the inn at Rikon. Seems to appear more frequently once the base is at its final stage.
Leon - Strategist related to Mathiu. In order to recruit you must talk to him once the castle is at its largest, and then go back and talk to Mathiu, who will give you a letter to send to him. Take the letter back to Leon.")
