Ms. Mowz

Ms. Mowz appears as an elusive treasure hunter before becoming an optional partner through a Trouble Center request. Her interest in badges links her story to exploration rewards.

• Story: Recruitment is optional, so a player can finish much of the main story without her in the party. Her usefulness grows when revisiting areas for missed treasure.
• In the game: Use her field sense to narrow down hidden-item searches. Interpret its feedback locally rather than assuming it marks an exact tile or replaces a complete area checklist.
