The Dynamic Duo: Valere & Zale

Valere and Zale, the protagonists of Sea of Stars, are unlocked right from the beginning of the game. As the story unfolds, players are presented with a pivotal decision – to choose one of the two characters as the leader of their party. However, it is important to note that this choice does not impact the narrative significantly, as both characters remain essential to the storyline and fight alongside each other throughout the game.

Valere, a skilled Battle Monk, wields a staff and deals devastating physical damage. She possesses the ability to infuse her weapons with magic, enabling her to unleash powerful strikes. On the other hand, Zale, a nimble Blade Dancer, brandishes a sword and excels in agility. As a sun warrior, Zale’s magical repertoire comprises fireballs and healing spells. Both characters offer unique playstyles and can be switched between freely, allowing players to adapt their strategies to different combat situations.
