You can recruit most characters in this game by simply progressing the story. But for a certain few characters, you will need to talk to them to have them join you on your quest. Here is how you can recruit them in FE Engage:

  1. Select Alear during the player phase and place them beside the character that you want to recruit. This can be a different character based on who you are recruiting.
  2. Next, for you action click on Talk.
  3. This will start a dialogue between the two characters.
