Tutorial NPC

The tutorial NPCs will help new players on their first steps in the world of Vana'diel. This is done through a series of assignments, in which people will become familiar with battling, Signet, crafting, and some other basic actions. If you have already completed the last assignment given by the tutorial NPC, they will simply provide information about Skillchains, Magic Bursts, and search commands.

Before each quest is given, the NPC will provide tutorial information about various aspects of the game which is worth reading if you've never played before.

Tutorial NPC's are at the following locations:

Name	Location
Alaune	Southern San d'Oria (G-10)
Gulldago	Bastok Markets (D-11)
Selele	Windurst Woods (K-10)
