System's Twilight Hint Guide:

Sorting It Out

I've tried a long time and I can't get anywhere. Tell me the solution.
Okay.
  1. Gatekeeper
    • Legava opened a lot of gates for you (seemingly unintentionally) and watches over you meticulously. Legava is based loosely on Legba; his name is intended to have connotations of "legal" and "law."
    • Mazer tells you many stories and acts a little insane, but he seems to have your best interests at heart and opens your horizons. He is based on Carrefour; the word literally means "crossroads."
  2. Provider
    • Yjerle is a bit "senile," but she gave you some memory storage. She seems the kindly but forgetful mother type.
    • Rosshi is a "spoiled brat." She illustrates the other extreme of the feminine stereotype. Both characters are based on Erzulie; Rosshi ("red-eye") based on the Erzulie Ge Rouge facet.
  3. Librarian
    • Emolpho, energetic and outgoing, works in the Data Stream, as does...
    • Ift, Emolpho's "servant," the silent and reserved guy. Ift is based on Damballah; the origins of both names are given when you finish the game.
  4. Craftsman
    • Ogham works in the Workshop, and is rather meticulous. He's based on Ogou and also "ogham," a form of runic writing.
    • Verlm also tries to get things done -- in a different fashion, of course. He's a combination of "vermin" and "worm."
  5. Reclaimer
    • Barhinn tried to remove nodes to solve the "problems."
    • Weykent is known as "the destroyer," and erased your memory block once. The pair are based on Baron Samedi, giving connotations like "barren," "weekend," "weakened..."
