This section will give you information about various things in the game. If you find something neat out send it in.
Brave and Faith affect your characters. You can increase both these things with the Mediators "Praise" and "Preach" Skill.
Brave affects:
1. Barehanded damage (should also conversely affect weapon damage).
2. Chance of Reaction Abilities activating.(Counter is an example)
Faith affects:
1. Effectiveness of magic cast on that person (Damage, success rate, etc.) Note that this means that a Cure spell cast on a character with high Faith will be more effective, but also attack spells cast on him/her. Similarly, a higher Faith will make it easier for a support spell (Haste, Shield, Protect, etc...) to be effective, but the same applies to negative status ailments (Stone, Slow, etc...).
2. The speed at which status abnormalities dissipate (again, both positive and negative). Higher Faith means slower status recovering.
3. Magic regeneration rate (like when using the "MP Recover Movement" ability).
