Ragnarok Empire Tactics War story begins with Branshaldo and the Aura nations

The game's story begins with two nations, Branshaldo Empire and the Aura Republic,

at war with each other over possession of an area of land called the Grantria Peninsula.

The nations call a truce, but relations remain poor, with the fear of war erupting again constantly looming.

The player gets to choose which party they side with, determining which side of the story is told,

and which of the five endings to the war is shown.

The game "Ragnarok Empire Tactics War" is played through the eyes of a silent protagonist named Rito by default, though he can be renamed.

The only dialogue from the character results from when the player is presented with three dialogue choices on how to respond to a question,

with the possible responses typically shown as a positive, negative, or indifferent answer.

The characters that fight alongside Ritos vary depends on the path the player opts for him to take.

The player can choose to have Rito align with either the Branshaldo Empire, the Aura Republic, or neither.

The player may also choose to have him stick with a certain side for the whole game, or switch sides throughout the game,

although the plot typically flows more clearly if Rito sticks to a certain side.

If the player sides with Branshaldo Empire, Rito will fight alongside Cynthia, a cold,

temperamental mage fiercely supportive of her home region.

Her side of the story focuses more closely into the struggles of Princess Adelaide,

who is tasked with ruling the entire empire once her father passes away due to illness,

and Darius, the General who advises Adelaide and controls the troops.

If the player sides with the Aura Republic, Ritos will fight alongside Yuri, an extremely formal and devoted knight.

His side of the story focuses more closely on his adoptive father, who is in charge of the Republic,

and his struggles with his biological son, Veda, and his strong hate towards Branshaldo Empire.

If the player has Ritos not side with either party, he instead travels with his friend Toren, a good natured ex-mercenary who detests war.

His story focuses on cleaning up messes that arise as a by-product of the war, protecting the village that houses his love interest, Livia,

and pursuing the mysterious "Ragnarok Empire Tactics War" character.

Additionally, there are extra, minor characters that are unrelated to the main story,

that only appear if the player chooses to play optional "Sub-Events".
