Crew Special
------------
After you get 4 members in your party and you begin to recruit members for your 
ship a new option will be enabled in hand to hand combat. This option will be 
"Crew Sp." and it will appear right above "Items" in the command screen, for it 
to appear you will have to max out your spirit points, once you do that choose 
that command, 2 attacks appear, both attacks drain ALL your spirit points. 

Prophecy:Causes damage to all enemies on screen. 

Blue Rogues: Damage will vary depending on how many crew members you have,if 
you have them all it causes around 2,000 damage to all enemies and heals all 
party members. 

Cancel Effects
--------------
An easy way to avoid getting attacked by really anoying enemies is like this: 
Cast a confusion spell or get the Swirlmerang from the net to tackle the bigger 
ones, then attack it right after it's confused. It will cancel it's current attack. 
Most it'll do will be a counter attack. 

Finding Glacia
--------------
To find Glacia easier, look at the lands of ice. Most of the ice is white, but 
within the white ice is one light blue area. It is over the mountain when you 
discover the lights in the sky -- go to the other side of where you are now 
(over the mountain). In that side alone, look for a light blue area in the 
ground containing a city frozen in ice. Note: This is very hard to find because 
none of the tips of the buildings in the city emerge from the ground. 

Finding Gordo's bar
-------------------
Go to map square E4. 

Hidden audio
------------
While the game was in development, the game programmers wanted to implement 
speech. However in the final version, the speech was not included. The speech 
was only in the battle system. Use the following steps to hear the voices that 
they were going to use. Turn on the Dreamcast with no disc. When the system 
screen shows up, go to CD player. You will see there is no CD when you go in the 
CD player. While at the screen with the CD Player controls, insert either game 
disc. When the disc is loaded in the CD player, the Skies of Arcadia CD will 
appear. Select "Play" to hear the hidden audio. 

Hidden artwork
--------------
Place the game disc in a PC compatible CD-ROM drive and open the "master01.bmp" file. 

Secret Aika FMV sequence
------------------------
When you begin the game and pass the part with Alfonso's ship, return to your island. 
Get out of the underground base of Pirate Isle. Aika will say that she needs to 
freshen up a bit. Go to her house, then face towards the door. Go all the way to the 
left left until you see a clothesline. In that one corner you will see, pasted on the 
wall of that house corner, a handkerchief. Inspect the handkerchief and you will see 
a hidden FMV sequence of how Aika looks with her hair down.
