Dragoners wield Armonics, ancient instruments that serve as weapons, in order to trigger powerful runic chants. Once you have accumulated enough BPM (Battle Performance Mana), your party can play together thanks to the B.A.N.D. system. Depending on the chant you perform and the character playing the central role, your party will receive different beneficial effects. Some characters can even perform their chant using a special costume!

Yuma possesses the soul of the Shining Dragon, allowing him to transform into an ancient creature through the power contained in his sword. While they were thought to have disappeared long ago, the dragons make Yuma the target of the Empire, who capture him in the hope of using him against the Kingdom of Astoria. Sonia, the Princess of Astoria, launches a rescue operation with the help of the Dragoners. Discovering Astoria's distress and the struggle of its inhabitants to save their land, Yuma decides to come to their aid. Usually shy, will he find the courage to put the power he holds at the service of the greater good?
