How to Unlock Caldarus as a Romanceable Character in Fields of Mistria
Upon completing the offering, a cutscene will play where the Mines Priestess warns the farmer to leave or risk being sealed with the Sealing Scroll. As the farmer's health depletes, Caldarus appears, transforming into his human form, granting the player the Dragon’s Breath spell, and then retreating to the Deep Woods. In this new form, you can interact with Caldarus, giving him gifts and engaging in daily conversations similar to other dateable NPCs in Mistria.
After breaking the Fire Seal, Caldarus can be found exclusively at his temple in the Deep Woods. You'll need to use the Dragon’s Breath spell to unlock this area permanently on your map.
Caldarus’ Heart Events in Fields of Mistria
Currently, there are a few cutscenes involving Caldarus. The first is a dream sequence at the game's start, introducing Mistria’s magic system and mechanics. The second occurs after breaking the Fire Seal, where Caldarus saves the farmer from being sealed and reveals his human form before retreating to recover in the Deep Woods. Both scenes are part of the natural story progression.
Following the March 2025 update, you can trigger a date with Caldarus during the Shooting Star Festival, which takes place on Summer 28.
The Shooting Star Festival
During the date at the Summit, Caldarus expresses gratitude for the invitation and discusses the stars and the Mistrian tradition of Starbinding. The conversation delves into existential topics about soul connections and the necessity of villains in stories. Caldarus muses about past lives and, feeling fatigued, invites you to spend the rest of the evening watching the stars from his temple.
