Examine the program data and replace the dummy special characters that do nothing but stand and look pretty. From those, make five (or eight, if you count Ladd & the ladies) special characters, each with a unique portrait. These special characters will adopt the sprite maps of existent classes. They should have a new mix of abilities (i.e. extra Abilities alongside Squire staples) and equipment possibilities to make it worth trying to invite them. There have been attempts in the past to make Ladd and the ladies unique. It can be done, but it takes knowing what characters can be taken without infringing on cinematic data and causing stupid graphical anomalies.

I play this challenge where it is roughly a variation of MR4M challenge but with invited enemy humans. The point of the challenge is to never change those humans and keep them as they were, no job change, no learning new skills and no setting any other skills that they didn’t have as an enemy (meaning don’t swap basic skill for black magic even if they have access to black magic) and no equipment upgrades. There are two exceptions: 1) equip change is legal if they had it previously and set as their official support skill. 2) learning new skills via crystal is ok. You probably won’t be able to use many of those anyway if you don’t break other rules. With this challenge I ALWAYS make a point to recruit these “special” enemies. And yes, unfortunately their sprite goes back to ”normal” but I always know. Also, there’s one unit that does have a face that does not match the sprite: The Drag Queen. I suggest recruiting him/her

You know what happens? The battles themselves transmit unique portrait data to a character which has nothing to do with the regular setup. After their recruitment, whenever the game calls for their data, it calls on the standard data. To avoid this without reworking code, rework character setup lists so special characters with new Squire Job Commands are the result. They won't escape their initial attire (Monk remains Monk even as Dragoon), but that's the point. If we had space to spare, we could make Ladd and the ladies unique characters as well. I'm sure it's something that the recent mod The Lion War or its "TOFU" counterpart are capable of addressing.

Techically, there are 5 more "Unique" portraits as well. Gustav, Milleuda, and Gragoroth are all Knights with unique portraits. And both Celia and Lettie might as well be Fancy Dancers since their portraits also retains some similarity to the Dancer's when compared next to each other. Unfortunately, two of those are cutscenes only characters while the other three are boss characters and therefore IMMUNE to Enticement Seems you and I both agree that Order of the Southern Sky has great uniforms/color palates for their uniques. For me though, I've got my eye on the Monk in the opposite gate 😁

I captured this footage on PSP WOTL so I'm just curious on how it would be on a PS1 emulator. The psp emulator just feels smoother to me. I had a viewer submit the unique monk portrait on the guest Knight at Zeklaus Desert so that was a cool thing to see. Granted this was on mobile.

If anyone's curious: Each scenario has one "Special Portrait" slot allowing you to pick a specific temporary unit ID and portrait ID, giving any single unit a specially designated portrait for the entirety of the battle. If you change unit IDs during the battle so that a different unit has the designated unit ID - say, for example, you're testing a modding idea and make some mistakes with how unit IDs are handled - the newly designated unit ends up with that portrait, and the unit who had formerly been the correct unit ID has their portrait revert to the standard one. Sadly, this means there's no way to take standard sprites and give them special portraits without using a completely separate sprite slot for them and importing a modified version of the sprite.
