Deltarune’s morality system is centered around attacking or sparing the enemies found throughout each chapter’s Dark World. The sparing mechanic becomes more rewarding in Chapter 2 with the introduction of the Castle Town. Sparing an enemy enough times will recruit them to the Castle Town as friendly NPCs. However, violently defeating them causes them to be “Lost,” rendering them unrecruitable. 

Chapter 3 of Deltarune transports Kris and the gang into a TV-themed Dark World filled with interesting characters. Eight of the enemies appearing in this chapter can be recruited to Castle Town. Refer to our list of recruitable enemies with specific mentions of their whereabouts and Sparing tactics.
