In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, there are optional side missions that players can take part in. These side missions are called Paralogues; which Paralogues you get depend on which characters you have in your class/army. In the game, you play as a professor in a prestige Military school. You need to pick which house you want to teach in, and the house you pick determines what students join your group. You can still recruit students from the other two houses even after you pick one, and you can essentially recruit all other students to join your group.
Most of the Paralogues focuses on specific characters, and if those characters aren’t in your group, then the Paralogues won’t become available to you. A lot of the Paralogues generally center on two characters. However, you would need only to have recruited one of these characters to unlock the Paralogues. For example, I never recruited Raphael in my first playthrough of the game, yet I still unlocked his Paralogue. That’s because Raphael and Ignatz share a Paralogue, and I already recruited Ignatz.
Paralogues are green exclamation marks on your calendar. If you have green exclamation marks on your calendar, that means you still have Paralogues to do. You pick Paralogues on your free day; they can be found on the mission option. Paralogues, which would be marked with the green exclamation, will be available with other missions.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses – Paralogues, Guide to Paralogue Rewards
There are four different routes in Fire Emblem: Three Houses and several Paralogues are exclusive to specific routes. The four routes are Crimson Flower, Azure Moon, Verdant Wind, and Silver Snow. Also, different Paralogues only become available at certain parts of the game. The game is split between a Part One and a Part Two; some Paralogues become available in Part One, while others are available in Part Two. There’s also a time limit with the Paralogues; you need to accomplish them before you reach a certain date.
Here is the list of Paralogues in the game, which characters you need to recruit, and the potential rewards you can earn. The Paralogues are split between which ones are available in Part One, and which ones are available in Part Two. Reminder, even if a Paralogue focuses on more than one character, you only need to have one of those characters to unlock it.
