Character Growth

This section will cover topics concerning elements of the player's character that can be improved over the course of the game, including what those improvements are, how they work, what they do, and how the player attains them.

• Health - over the course of the game the player can encounter Apollo shrines where they can complete a quest in exchange for an increase for their max health.  After getting health increases from several shrines, players find that they can take much more damage in combat without dying.
• Strength - similar to the Apollo shrines, players can visit Ares shrines several times over the course of the game.  These shrines will permanently increase the amount of damage the player does when hitting an opponent in combat.  After visiting several of these shrines the players will find that they can much more easily defeat powerful enemies.
• Inventory / Gear - Players can slowly increase the usefulness and effectiveness of their gear through careful inventory management, so that after several upgrades to a piece of armor or weapon it is better than any gear they would find.
