Thousand Hells Recruitable Heroes and Helpers

Is there a fixed list of recruitable heroes?

No complete fixed list is publicly available in the supplied materials. The Steam page says the cast of helpers changes each time, so a reliable database should record observed hero combinations and generation rules instead of presenting one permanent roster as fact.

What can be recorded now	What must wait for testing
Heroes have professions	Full profession pool
Heroes have skills and personalities	Exact skill effects
Helpers can differ between runs	Spawn and recruitment probabilities
Not every hero gets along	Exact relationship rules

Compare the character generation rules with the trait interaction notes when adding a new observed helper.

What should a recruitable hero record contain?

Each record should preserve the exact in-game name for that run, the profession, visible traits, recruitment context, and the evidence supporting every claim. If the same name or profile appears in multiple runs, keep the run identifiers so later tests can distinguish a repeated template from a procedural variation.

Record field	Evidence to attach
Display name	Screenshot or capture
Profession	Character panel screenshot
Traits and personality	Character panel or dialogue
Recruitment location	Map or event screenshot
Requirements	Choice sequence and party state
Outcome	Joined, refused, injured, or unknown

The player character page explains the same record format for the controlled hero, while the encounter types page helps classify where a recruit was useful.

Are helper abilities already confirmed?

The public store description confirms that skills and personalities matter to party preparation, but it does not provide a complete numerical ability table. Do not turn a demonstration line or a single successful action into a permanent hero rule without release-build evidence.

The underworld system and pre-release route clues pages provide context for why a helper may be useful without claiming a universal tier list.
