Levels
Cornet is taken at 57500 EXP. The puppets are taken at 46000 EXP. The reason for this is that Cornet is forced for the entire game and there's no way to remove her from the party, so she's bound to get extra EXP. In fact, only Sharte can have the same amount of EXP as Cornet, period. Kururu can before the time she leaves as well.
This puts Cornet at level 40, most of the puppets at 34, with Ledgen at 36 and KnightSpawn at 37. Do note that Cornet levels faster than everyone else, so even if they puppets got equal EXP, they'd only be level 36-37 anyways (except the quicker levelling Ledgen and KnightSpawn).
For the record, if you use all puppets equally, they end up in the 25 range.
Battle System
Basic turn-based.
Rewards
Only Cornet gets these. The Rewards Gauge is increased by using Horn skills on puppets. The Rewards Gauge carries over between battles so I allow 3 (half) starting levels. Your mileage may vary. It doesn't really matter anyways.
Elements
There are seven elements: Dark, Holy, Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, and Thunder. Dark/Holy oppose each other, as do Fire/Water and Wind/Earth. Thunder has no opposing element. Being struck by the opposing element increases damage taken by 50%, while being struck by the same element reduces damage taken by 50%. Neutral None indicates the absense of an element.
Equipment
All equipment in Rhapsody are universal accessories. In addition, none of them are status resisting accessories. As such, none will be used here, save for the Holy Charm, which Cornet has a plot claim to. The Holy Charm reduces MP cost to 50%. Yes, this is as worthless as it sounds for Cornet.
