Time Stalkers (or Climax Landers in Japan) is a 1999 Roguelike turn-based JRPG developed by Climax Entertainment, the minds behind Shining Force and Landstalker, and published by Sega. It has the distinction of being one of the first RPGs on the Sega Dreamcast. The main cast of Time Stalkers features Crossover characters and locations from other Climax titles.The story follows Sword, a wandering swordsman who pursues an assailant into a clocktower. Inside he finds a library and, after casually flipping through a random book, is knocked unconscious and transported to a floating landmass pieced together from different worlds and time periods. He is immediately confronted by an old man calling himself Master, who declares Sword to be The Chosen One destined to save Ring World from an unspecified evil out to destroy it. Over the course of the story, Sword is joined on his quest by Rao (implied to be from the world of Feda: The Emblem of Justice), Nigel from Landstalker, Pyra from Shining in the Darkness, and Lady from Lady Stalker. | |

Ambiguous Situation: Rao comes from a world where a thousand-year war has waged against a Liberation Army and resulted in the creation of the Phantom Zone. While never spelled out explicitly, the evidence is compelling that Rao is from Mildras Graz of Feda: The Emblem of Justice, a sister series to the Shining franchise. | |

Ambiguously Human | |
Time Stalkers (Video Game) / int_225d8ff9 | comment |
Ambiguously Human: Sword's race is never specified. His ears are pointier than a human's, but smaller than an elf's, and his character model has fangs. There's potential dialogue that goes into his origins, but it's between him and Marion, so there's no guarantee the player will ever see it. Master is ambiguously elvish. He has ears similar to Pyra's and Nigel's, but he's bearded and looks quite elderly for a species with such a long lifespan. His race is never specified. It's also possible that his real body looks nothing like his avatar in the Ring World, if he even has a body at all. | |

Aborted Arc: After recovering from his depression, Dr. Alan begins research into a mysterious star. This is never resolved. Masaru Tanaka becomes convinced that he's the creator of Ring World, and that an equally powerful being is restricting his powers. After fretting about it for a while, he goes to see Dr. Alan for an invention to boost his power. When Dr. Alan ignores him, Masaru simply gives up and goes home. | |

Awesome, but Impractical: The heroes can wear ten rings at once; one for each finger. The character with the highest starting carrying capacity is Nigel, who can bring 8 items into a dungeon. To max out rings, a player would have to load a character with nothing but rings, send them into a dungeon, and get lucky enough with treasure hunting that they find an additional 2+ rings. | |

Stat Grinding: Skills have a stat requirement associated with their mastery. If the total value of a hero's stat requirements exceeds their current stats, all their skills are deactivated.

Scavenger Hunt: A possible mission type that involves finding one or more specific items in a dungeon. The game doesn't necessarily prioritize spawning the required items during a run, so whether or not the mission can be finished is a crap shoot. | |

Scratch Damage | |
Time Stalkers (Video Game) / int_5405b144 | comment |
Scratch Damage: Provided you aren't grossly under-leveled for the floor you're on, most enemy attacks will only deal 1 damage. It's unclear if this was a deliberate design choice or not. Bosses and spellcasters can reliably do much more damage, and can quickly end a run if you're not careful. | |

Purposefully Overpowered: Marion can carry more items into dungeons than anyone, register more skills than anyone, has twice the hunger meter and bonus skill points, and naturally learns skills that negate physical and magical damage. The secret dragon-type enemies are basically bosses that you can include in your party. They have 999 hunger, 6 to 7 times the hp your hero will have by the end of the dungeon, and can one-shot most enemies. | |

Hero of Another Story | |
Time Stalkers (Video Game) / int_581f6468 | comment |
Hero of Another Story: A given, considering it's a crossover. Pyra, Nigel, and Lady are all protagonists in their respective games. Captain Hawk may be this, having identified himself as "The Galaxy's Greatest Hero." He has the strength to back up the claim, at least, but is ambivalent to the conflict and only engages with the heroes when he's making passes at them. | |

Magic Knight: Sword is proficient with both weapons and magic, with an emphasis on fire spells. He's also capable of equipping staffs, which are caster-focused weapons. | |

Powerful, but Inaccurate | |
Time Stalkers (Video Game) / int_5bec943d | comment |
Powerful, but Inaccurate: The most obvious way the game balances attacks: techniques that deal more damage typically come with a hefty accuracy penalty. Spells in particular can have a 45-60% hit rate depending on the target to balance out the fact that they can wipe out whole parties. | |

Fantasy Gun Control: Despite having a Star Trek-esque space civilization and two modern urban centers as part of its composition, there isn't anything resembling a firearm to be found in Ring World. Cyborg-type monsters get access to a technique called "gun bullet," which appears to fire a point-blank bullet out of their arm. The Undead Lord bosses of the Phantom Zone have bandoliers, but no guns. | |

Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards | |
Time Stalkers (Video Game) / int_812ee32b | comment |
Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards: Inverted. Spellcasters like Pyra and Marion can one-shot enemies early on with spells, but their damage tends to not scale as well as physical attackers like Sword and Rao. More importantly, physical attackers get access to skills that allow them to hit one target multiple times, whereas higher level spells are limited to hitting multiple targets with the same damage as base spells. Either archetype can easily handle a dungeon, but high level warriors are much better at chewing through a boss' health bar. | |

Ash to Captain Hawk, though if Rao confronts them about it they'll insist it's just a joke. Bob is quietly obsessed with Pyra, who does not take well to his stalking.

Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass | |
Time Stalkers (Video Game) / int_a9de87d2 | comment |
Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Captain Hawk's reputation of "The Galaxy's Greatest Hero" is belied by his failed womanizing and disinterest in the threats facing the world. It's enough to make the heroes write him off. Then he emerges completely unharmed from Dr. Alan's death traps and they're forced to reassess his abilities. Ash is as good of a boxer as they've ever been, new lifestyle notwithstanding. They manage to easily chase Boss and his gang out of their shop after a failed takeover. | |

No-Sell | |
Time Stalkers (Video Game) / int_abd29ad8 | comment |
No-Sell: No matter how high your defense gets, enemy attacks will still do a minimum of 1 damage. Negating damage completely requires the appropriate skill, like Mag Invalid or Dmg Invalid. These skills are very hard to learn, but can be found on certain items, like shields, or monsters, like Hard Bugs. Balloon-type monsters can invalidate both Priority skills and spellcasting just by being present in a battle. | |

Time Stalkers (Video Game) / int_abdf7d09 | comment |
Weirdness Censor: The residents of Fujimi Town are much more skeptical of their new surroundings than other Pieces, whose fantasy and sci-fi backgrounds can help explain their new neighbors. Masaru Tanaka believes the world is his solipsist creation, Sandy chalks it up to being a dream, and the Yamadas think their neighbors are wearing costumes or part of television crews. | |

Impossible Task | |
Time Stalkers (Video Game) / int_bd6b86df | comment |
Impossible Task: Heroes can take missions from Mr. Noiman that take the form of a task you must complete before finishing a dungeon. If the assignment requires them to find items that the dungeon decides not to spawn, or raise a monster to a certain level without providing enough XP, there's not much the hero can do about it. | |

Cute Little Fangs | |
Time Stalkers (Video Game) / int_c335b301 | comment |
Sword's race is never specified. His ears are pointier than a human's, but smaller than an elf's, and his character model has fangs. There's potential dialogue that goes into his origins, but it's between him and Marion, so there's no guarantee the player will ever see it. | |
