Hero
From Wildermyth Wiki
Heroes are the . . . uh, heroes . . . of the game. Each hero has a personality, develops augments over time, and carries equipment.
Heroes travel in a party. The party starts as a bunch of farmers and every hero develops over time. A farmer can become a warrior, a hunter, or a mystic.

Recruitment
One recruitment event is offered per chapter, in which the player can pay legacy points to hire a new hero for the party.
Any time the party has fewer than 3 members another recruitment event will be offered.
The Bard ability reduces the cost of recruitment by 1 LP.
