Support

You may be looking for Support conversations

Supports are bonds between playable characters, through which they gain certain statistical bonuses. The type and amount of bonuses is determined by the participating characters elemental affinity. Characters can strengthen their supports and their bonuses by standing adjacent to each other for a number of turns (Fūin no Tsurugi, Blazing Sword, Sacred Stones) or by participating in a certain number of battles together (Path of Radiance, Radiant Dawn), then initiating a conversation between those units by using the "Talk" or "Converse" command. Support bonuses will only activate when both units are within 3 spaces of each other.

Other types of supports include fixed supports (e.g between Ike and Mist in Path of Radiance, between Barst, Bord and Cord in Shadow Dragon) and Bond supports, which are supports found in Radiant Dawn that are set in place before the game begins (e.g between Jill and Haar) or by achieving an A support between two characters in Path of Radiance and utilizing the data transfer (e.g between Ike and Soren).
