Mercenaries can be hired each chapter for gold, and will remain available for all missions in the chapter. The price increases as their level increases, but they can be hired for half price after completing the chapter's compulsory mission. After the end of Chapter 13, mercenaries can no longer be hired; they will only remain available if they were permanently recruited.

Guest characters are only available for the chapter where they initially appear unless their recruitment criteria are met. Izerna and Enid are treated as guest characters in their respective first appearances, but are automatically recruited afterwards.
