The Gauntlet Runner is your mobile home and transport across Euchronia — part vehicle, part social hub. Travel between destinations takes in-game days, but those days aren't dead time: on board you cook, read, craft and bond, turning every journey into progress.
What you do on board
🍲 Cook & eat
Prepare and share meals that raise Royal Virtues and sometimes deepen a companion bond.
📖 Read & study
Books and activities nudge specific Virtues up — the steady drip that unlocks higher bonds.
🛠️ Craft & prep
Manage gear, Archetypes and loadouts between destinations so you arrive ready to fight.
💬 Talk to the crew
Downtime conversations flesh out the world and your companions — and advance their bonds.
Making journeys count
- Always do a Virtue-raising or bonding activity on a travel day — never let the trip go to waste.
- Line up activities that raise whichever Virtue your next Follower rank needs.
- Re-tune your party's Archetypes and inherited skills before you reach the next dungeon.
- Treat the Runner as your planning hub: check deadlines, bonds and Virtues before you disembark.
