RISE

Plot
Beginning in Zone 0, RISE follows Cinnamon Glaze on his mission to change the world for the better. Gaining allies on the way, Cinnamon faces off against the corrupted Guardians in order to get them to change their ways.

Cinnamon Glaze
A revolutionary formerly stationed in Zone 1. Former assistant of Dedan. He has a determined attitude, believing in a better future for all Elsen, and that he can start to bring about that future.

Taylor
A young, female Elsen located in the Annex mines of Damien. She is very idealistic and supportive, and remains as the team's morale during the hardest parts of the adventure.

Caramel
An Elsen met in Zone 3. He has a mysterious, undisclosed past that led to his withdrawn attitude. He decides to accompany the team due to thinking it might be amusing. He begins to form bonds with them and trust them over the course of Zones 3 and 4.

Haylan
A park janitor in Zone 2. He dreams of one day owning the park, and making it better suited for the timid, faint-hearted Elsen that live in the area. He's generous and sensitive, his competences essentially making him the team medic.

Gameplay
The gameplay is incredibly similar to that of OFF, except for the addition of new areas (and removal of the purified Zones). Even the party members themselves have competences that are functionally the same as the party members in OFF.
