Missing plan details

no chapter/renown-level correspondence found for Cai's route, so 8R cannot be tied to a specific chapter
no gold-per-chapter income figure found, so the 5000G ramp cannot be scheduled precisely
no support-points-per-action rate or points-per-support-level threshold documented; pacing assumes one support action per week

Story and profile

Who they are

Lilian is a young archer from a Saraminian family that was once highly regarded. She was picked for Megaira's Beacon in the Heroic Games and works under Theodora. Money is her priority: gold coins and gemstones are her favourite things, she tries to be frugal, and expects pay that matches her work, to the point of being rude to Theodora when she feels underpaid. Older men and hunting round out her interests.

Her path is Hunter, Archer, Sniper, Bow Adept. Dexterity growth of 55% and Luck of 50% make her accurate and lucky. Safety First adds Hit+10 when the foe cannot counter, so she does best picking targets that cannot strike back, and she learns Physic at White Magic rank B for some healing. Her weak side is damage and bulk: Strength is 35%, HP 35% and Defence 30%, so she should stay behind the front line. Bow and Infantry are preferred skills and Brawling is a bane skill. The guide ranks her B, a step below Game8. She joins in Part 1, automatically on Theodora's route.
