Domingo is a magical creature that is a hidden playable character in the games Shining Force: The Legacy of Great Intention, Shining Force: Resurrection of Dark Dragon, Shining Force Gaiden and Shining Force CD.
Background
Domingo is a magical creature hatched from an egg. Domingo joins Max's Force after hatching.
Personality
Domingo's personality is that of the stereotypical social and intellectual elite. He feels no need for friends, so he openly expresses disdain for his companions and flaunts his knowledge so much that he comes across as a know-it-all. He always maintains polite etiquette, but his highbrow personality tends to repel most people. Despite the fact that he seemingly would prefer to socialize in more intellectual circles, he sticks with Max's group out of loyalty to the one who hatched him.
The alternate universe version of Domingo from Resurrection of the Dark Dragon is almost the complete opposite. He can only say "Domingo!" and change colors to show his mood.
Strategy
Getting Domingo to Join
An egg is located in a suit of armor in Manarina's castle. When you search in Legacy of Great Intention it says that you are searching the monster. In order to hatch the egg, the egg must be taken to Pao and incubated. After the egg is hatched, Domingo will join the Force at Level 1.
In Shining Force Gaiden and Shining Force CD, search the bushes in Battle 12(the nighttime ambush battle) to find him.
Using Domingo
Shining Force I
Domingo is easily one of the most overpowered characters in the game. He has high Health Points, high Defense, high MP, and high Agility. Domingo has the ability to float on the battlefield, making him a "flyer" along with Balbaroy, Amon, Kokichi and Bleu. Domingo is easily one of the strongest of the flyers, able to pick off enemies with lvl.4 Freeze and can be a replacement for Tao as a mage or an alternative to Anri. He, along with Anri, are the two most efficient spell casters due to the reliance of the Freeze spell and due to his overall higher MP, the better of the pair.
Domingo is also suitable for speed-run players. Due to his lack of promotion, when he first joins he will gain levels for a while as if promoted and ends up arguably the strongest spell caster overall.Domingo lacks in physical attack and once his MP runs dry will be forced to act purely in a defensive role. Despite his massive stat boasts as he levels, he begins to get less growth by the time most other Force members are beginning to see their own growth stats.
Shining Force Gaiden
Domingo learns only offensive spells, including the first three levels of Blaze and Bolt. He is the only character in the game to learn Freeze level 4, though he will only learn it through extensive grinding. Besides being the only floating Mage, he gets exceptionally good HP, Attack, and Defense by Mage standards, and his MP is decent as well. Altogether he is the game's most offensively capable magic user.
In Shining Force CD, Domingo stands out a bit less. Though his HP becomes even more impressive as he approaches level 20, May gets Defense comparable to his, while Natasha trumps him for MP. However, he is still the only Mage to float or learn Freeze level 4, and in this game he has time to learn the spell even without grinding. He must at least be considered if you like offensive spellcasters.
