Traits can be used in the Bond Diagram to strengthen your party in new and exciting ways. This Shining Resonance Refrain Traits Guide will tell you how to unlock various different traits so you can experiment with different combinations to find the most powerful boosts for your party.
The initial traits you have, typically a dark grey color, have no actual effect on your party or the bonds they develop over time. However, as you unlock more traits for use on the Bond Diagram menu, you will be able to synergies the relationships between your party members for beneficial effects. Below are tables for each of the characters in Shining Resonance Refrain including the traits they can acquire and how you unlock them.

Blaine "Captain Camper" Smith is one of the original founders of Gamers Heroes. Now operating under the guise of Editor-in-Chief (purely because we felt the position was needed for public relations purposes), he's tasked with a lot of the kind of jobs that would put you to sleep at your desk.
When he's not catching some Zs, you'll likely find him arguing points he knows nothing about, playing the latest rogue-like he'll never complete, or breaking something on the website that never needed fixing.
