Egos are a huge part of the world in Monark. According to Cromwell, they are the “wills of individuals” and come in seven basic forms. Conveniently, these forms correlate exactly to the seven deadly sins: Pride, Wrath, Envy, Greed, Gluttony, Sloth, and Lust.
In another work, Cromwell expounds on the existence of Alter Egos, which are fragments of the heart that get extracted from humans when they encounter the mist. Naturally, as there’s a lot of mist in this game, you’ll encounter lots of Alter Egos that can be absorbed to improve your stats.
Alter Egos Overview
Alter Egos take the form of small, red, dark crystals that float in the air. You can interact with them, and one of two things will happen:
- If your corresponding Ego is high enough, you will absorb the Alter Ego, leading to a stat boost for the entire party - including characters you haven’t encountered yet.
- If your corresponding Ego is not high enough, you will be told what the Ego requirement actually is to acquire the Alter Ego. It’s best to make a note of the Alter Ego’s location and come back when you’ve reached the threshold.
There are 30 Alter Egos to find in the game. You can see which ones you have and which ones you have yet to acquire by heading to the Profiles menu on your cell phone.
Here, any character with a diamond shape next to their name will have an Alter Ego somewhere in the game once you have interacted with them. Their bio will usually give you a good hint as to the location of their Alter Ego, but this is not always the case. Once you have acquired a character’s Alter Ego, the diamond will turn from a blank gray icon into a filled-in crystal icon.
Collecting your first Alter Ego will nab you the Alter Ego Contigo achievement, which comes with Male Voice D as a reward.
All Alter Egos
The table below lists all Alter Egos in the game apart from the final one, which has its own section since its identity is quite the spoiler.
