- Ophilia and Cyrus have been announced as the last two playable characters - Cyrus is a scholar working at the royal university who is an incredibly curious and knowledgeable person - Cyrus» Path Action is «Explore» which lets him find out hidden details and information about other characters - during combat, Cyrus can reveal the weaknesses of enemies and exploit them using fire, ice and lightning magic - Ophilia is a priestess and her Path Action is Lead, which allows her to guide characters to certain
places by having them follow - in combat, she's a classic white mage - type who can heal allies, buff their stats and use light magic to attack the enemy - Ophilia can also call upon the character she's guiding to aid her in battle - character's special abilities are called Talents - Olberic can take hits in
place of other characters in battle - Primrose, like Ophilia, can call upon the character she has charmed and have them aid her in battle - Tressa can sometimes find money
simply by walking around the overworld - Alfyn can mix items to damage enemies or heal allies - Therion can unlock treasure chests - H'aanit can capture beasts during combat - your active battle party can consist of four characters, but you can
swap them out with the other four characters at any time - even after you've met up with the other playable characters, you can still pursue each character's individual story - you do this by making them the «main» character of your current party
Rather than
simply placing a character on to summon them in - game however, LEGO Dimensions will have you lifting,
swapping and tapping the portal in such a way that makes sense in the story and for some nifty gameplay.
Simply swap out the empty for a full one, then leave it in
place until that one depletes over a few months - yep, months - and
swap them back over again.
