At the moment, these are all the available characters in the game that you can recruit to the Liberation Army, and grow a deep bond with. You can build strong relationships with any character that you choose, but keep in mind that only one can receive the Ring of the Maiden from Alain. Once you’ve made your choice of whom to marry, you cannot go back on it. Whichever character you choose to marry will have the same effect as any other character, so the only difference will be your preference. You won’t receive any special rewards for choosing a particular character.

How to Romance in Unicorn Overlord

Before you can even think about marrying a character from Unicorn Overlord, you’ll first need to build a relationship with them. There are a few different ways you can do this, but overall, you’ll want to start by building Rapport with them. There are a few different methods you can use, including:

  • Fighting in battles together in the same unit
  • Share a meal at the Tavern
  • Give a gift

If you have a particular character in mind that you’d like to romance, make sure to put them in Alain’s unit formation, so they can fight battles together and slowly gain Rapport. Outside of this, you can visit a tavern within a city where you can share a meal together. The easiest tavern to find is located within the Walled City of Barbatimo.


You can also give a gift to any character you choose. However, you can only provide them with a gift when they are stationed as a guard in any of the liberated towns. If you need to purchase a gift for them, you can find these at a Provisioner found within towns, or the Black Market Dealer.

How to Marry in Unicorn Overlord

To be able to marry a character in the game, you will need to reach maximum Rapport with them. You can check this in the Rapport section in the main menu, and if you are at the full three hearts with the character you want to marry, you will have the chance to marry them.

After initiating the final Rapport Conversation between Alain and your chosen character, you’ll want to get your hands on the Ring of the Maiden to marry. To unlock this item, you must complete all the main quests in Elheim, starting with ‘The Winding Wood’. This quest can be found just south of Bellum Ghoria Hamlet in Cornia, shown in the map image above. To speed up the process of marriage, you’ll want to choose to focus on Elheim’s quests first over Drakenhold.

The final main quest in Elheim you’ll need to complete is ‘The Witch’s Word’. There aren’t a lot of main quests you’ll need to complete in Elheim before unlocking this one; it will appear to you soon after you’ve liberated Castle Laurhal. The Witch’s Word can be found in the northernmost region of Elheim, just outside the City of Quantipelt. The enemies here will be Level 23, so make sure to be on the same level.


Soon after you complete this quest, a few cutscenes will occur. In the second cutscene, Rosalinde and Eltolinde tell Alain about the Ring of the Maiden, the item needed to complete the Rite of the Covenant ceremony. They will provide Alain with this item, and immediately after the cutscene, you will unlock the Unicorn and Maiden Main Quest. This will allow you to marry a character of your choosing, and it can be found within the Albion region, specifically outside of Palevia Town, as shown in the map image.


Once you’ve arrived, head to the Altar at the back of the island. A cutscene will begin with Rosalinde, where she’ll tell you to return with the person you’ve chosen for the rite. You’ll need to have completed three Rapport Conversations with your chosen character, and completely maxed out the Rapport gauge. Approach the Altar again, and your Rite of Covenant options will appear. Choose who you wish to marry, and the Rite of Covenant will complete the marriage.
