To form a strong relationship with Veramus, read his mind often, and use the Void frequently. The character trait gullible is a bonus. The final outcome of your relationship with Veramus will depend on which ending you achieve. You will part ways with him (you might even kill him) in Endings 1 or 3; however, you will remain allies in Endings 2 or 4.

Factors:

  • Read Veramus’s mind frequently. Once you reunite with him in the hotel on Dordasa, you need to have tried to read his mind about 7 times to start seeing snippets of thoughts. Keep reading his mind frequently to see more.
  • Read the Vandorfin coordinates in Amalek’s mind when the Shadow asks you to
  • Read the minds of your teammates on the second mission to Teballai
  • When you are being held captive in the brig, choose Veramus to help you get out
  • To get Ending 2, you must read/attempt to read Veramus’s mind frequently enough to see his thoughts by the time you reach Ludebba. When he pulls you aside to talk to you, you will get a chance to Dive Deeper into his mind. Do it
  • On Ludebba, Veramus will take Korah as hostage and demand that you search his mind for a number. To fully break through Veramus’s mind at this point, you should have used the Void more than 99 times, and read Veramus’s mind more than 40 times
  • When Veramus asks you to look up the number in his head, you must do so; you must also be able to break all the way into his mind and Dive Deeper to see the correct number

Variations within the relationship:

  • In Ending 4, if Mierol is still with you and you’ve formed a romantic relationship with her as well, then you will become a ménage à trois with her and Veramus

You cannot form a romantic relationship with Crain. However, you can become grave enemies if you read his mind often enough–you might even kill him!

Steps to killing Crain:

  • Read his mind frequently; there are certain thoughts you might see that will arouse your suspicions
  • You must realize that Amalek is in danger right after you descend the Q’s tower with Mierol. You must also Dive Deeply into Amalek’s mind to see exactly how he got hurt

 

Amalek Relationship Guide

*SPOILER ALERT!*

To form a strong relationship with Amalek, you must generally avoid reading his mind. If you want to form a romantic relationship with him, choose gullible as one of your character traits at the beginning of the game. Similarly, if you chose short-tempered instead, you will lose extra points with him throughout the story.

Relationship factors:

  • When you reunite with Amalek in Chapter 2, you must have only looked at his mind less than 6 times; then you will tell him the Prototype’s purpose
  • Do NOT Dive Deeper into his mind for the Vandorfin coordinates
  • In the scene where you choose whether to Dive Deeper into his mind: if you resist Diving Deeply, if you told him about the Prototype previously, if you have used the Void less than 30 times overall, and if your relationship with Amalek is higher than 60 points, you will tell him that you have the ability to read minds
  • After he asks you not to read his mind, obey his wishes
  • If you chose “gullible” as one of your character traits at the beginning of the game and follow the steps above, you will kiss Amalek

Life or death:

  • Amalek will live or die depending on when you realize he’s in danger. During the second mission to Teballai, after you climb down the Q’s palace with Mierol, read his mind as soon as you can. Mierol will have time to bandage his wounds. Either way they will think that he’s dead, but if you bandaged his wounds early enough, you might see him again in the Epilogue (Endings 1, 2, or 3)

Enemies:

  • Your relationship with Amalek can take a turn for the worse if you read his mind often enough. If you pull the Vandorfin coordinates from his mind and keep reading his mind in the scenes afterward, you might say something you shouldn’t, and Amalek will know you betrayed him

Korah Relationship Guide

*SPOILER ALERT!*

To form a strong relationship with Korah, you must generally avoid reading her mind.

Factors:

  • If you choose the “charming” character trait at the beginning of the game, you will win more points with her throughout, but this won’t make or break the relationship
  • Do NOT read the Vandorfin coordinates in Amalek’s mind; this will eventually subtract a large number of points from your relationship with Korah
  • Do NOT kill Crain
  • When you are being held captive in the brig, choose her as your partner to help you get out (she will only agree to be your partner if you have at least 60 points in your relationship and you have NOT killed Crain)
  • Once Korah learns your secret, she will request that you never to read her thoughts again. After that, NEVER look at her thoughts
