Homunculi
The alchemist’s battle companions: healer, tank, damage dealer or caster. Pick a type to match your playstyle, raise its intimacy, push it to evolution — and later to a Homunculus S mutation.
A homunculus is an artificial creature, a loyal companion of the Alchemist and Creator classes. It fights at your side, has its own levels, stats and skill set, eats special food and reacts to how you treat it (intimacy). There are four base types, each with its own role; as friendship and level grow the homunculus evolves, and later it can mutate into a Homunculus S form.
Homunculus types
The type is chosen at random on first summon, but you can re-roll it by summoning a fresh one from an Embryo. Each type has a fixed element, race and role.
Fragile but indispensable healer. A large SP pool and Healing Touch keep the alchemist alive, while Mental Change briefly turns it into a fighter.
- Healing Touch — healing
- Urgent Escape — escape
- Brain Surgery — returns SP to the alchemist
- Mental Change — temporary transformation
A living wall with the highest HP and defense. Castling pulls aggro onto itself, and Bloodlust adds life-steal in the thick of a fight — the ideal tank companion.
- Castling — pulls aggro
- Amistr Bulwark — defense buff
- Adamantium Skin — HP buff
- Bloodlust — life-steal
A fast melee damage dealer with the highest ATK. Moonlight delivers a burst, while high ASPD and evasion make it a terror of farming spots.
- Moonlight — damage burst
- Flitting — instant evasion
- Fleet Move — ASPD buff
- Accelerated Flight — flee buff
A magic caster with the largest SP pool and MATK. Caprice strikes with a random element, and Self-Destruction is a powerful finishing blast.
- Caprice — random element
- Chaotic Benediction — healing
- Change Instruction — INT buff
- Self-Destruction — powerful finishing blast
Evolution and mutation
A homunculus goes through three growth stages. Rising intimacy (friendship) is the key to each one.
The homunculus is summoned from an Embryo with the Call Homunculus skill. One of four types is chosen at random; the companion gains its own levels and stats.
Once intimacy reaches Loyal, use an Evolution Stone — the homunculus advances to its Evolved form: higher stats, a new look and extra skills.
In later episodes an Evolved homunculus can mutate into a Homunculus S form (Eira, Bayeri, Sera, Eleanor) with its own skill tree. Reference only — beyond base ep11.2.
How to summon a homunculus
Homunculi are available to the Alchemist and Creator classes after learning the quest skill Bioethics.
Complete the Bioethics quest — it unlocks the homunculus skill branch for the Alchemist/Creator. Summoning is impossible without it.
Brew an Embryo with the Prepare Potion skill from its ingredients (Medicine Bowl, Seed of Life, Glass Tube). It is the “egg” the homunculus hatches from.
Use Call Homunculus with an Embryo in your inventory — a homunculus of a random type is born. Don’t like the type? Repeat with a new Embryo.
Feed it at the right moment (hunger 11–25) to raise intimacy, and take it into battle — the homunculus earns its own levels. Loyal intimacy unlocks evolution.
- Feed within the 11–25 hunger window — that raises intimacy the most; over-feeding (above 75) lowers it.
- Intimacy climbs through levels: Shy → Neutral → Cordial → Loyal. Evolution is only available at Loyal.
- If a homunculus dies it is not gone for good — it can be revived with the Resurrect Homunculus skill.
- Each type has a favourite food; feeding the right item is more effective.
- Check stats and intimacy in-game with the @hominfo command.
