Eliminate all the monsters in Gila's basement.

Once you defeated the boss and got the evil bell, go back to the village and got to the house with the person called Gila lives. Talk to him and he will ask you to go down his basement. Once you do go down make sure you go to the wall where a message will come up. Use your evil bell on the wall and the wall should collapse and monster should start coming out. Behind the crack wall is a large area where monster will keep on spawning. Keep on killing the monsters until the monster stop spawning.

Scatter apples violently across the floor, most likely bruising them horribly.

This is pretty simple. When you go into the hospital, the place where you see Nurse Sarina and Leonor, you should see a counter with apples on it. Walk through it and you should get this achievement with bruised apples.

Burn 50 villagers.

You will need fire magic for this. Once you got it from the mines, go to the village and start attacking them with fire balls. You can attack 1 person 50 times to get this achievement if you don't feel like attacking 50 villagers with fireballs.

Receive money from a duck.

Unknown kind Optional Unknown No glitches

You will need to have 5 gifts to do this one. In the first village, give 5 gifts to a man called Brody(he should be inside a house). He will say stuff like he doesn't have anything for you but once you give all the gifts he will tell you that the ducks eat anything and they sometimes eat gold. After you done this, go north east to find these ducks and run into all of them. A message will say you got 500 gold coins and the achievement will come up too.

Slaughter ten generations of gatekeeper.

Once you get the silver equipment, go back to the gate keepers and kill them 10 times. Use time magic to help.

Raise Tarf to max level.

Objective Missable Unknown No glitches

When you find Tarf and him we be with you until you get to the village. Give him flowers and apples. Keep giving it to him and he will increase to level 2. Now he can chuck stones at enemies. Use the roo magic to block to prevent the enemy from attacking tarf while tarf throws his stones at them. As he levels up, the easier it is for him to kill them. His max level is 25 i believe but he does level up very quickly.

Receive and eat four unique homemade food items.

Unknown kind Optional Unknown No glitches

You will need to give about 3- 5 gifts but I can't remember how much from each person so just give them gifts until they give you their food
1. Give gifts to Lucy and she will give you meat pie.
2. Give gifts to Theo and he will give you smoking meat.
3. Give gifts to Nash after you saved Tarf and he will give you raw meat.
4. Give enough gifts to zalem and she will give you a Cranberry pie
Eat all the food and then you pinged the achievement. If you want the food again, Theo and nash will give you their food if you give gifts again. For Lucy and zalem you need to attack them first.

"Measure" Tarf.

Objective Missable Unknown No glitches

Make sure you back track the area where you found that iron ore in that little gap. Push tarf into the end of the alley to get this achievement and also he will say something about being squashed. If he gets stuck, ram him down that alley using fire magic.

Oh God make them go away!

Unknown kind Optional Unknown No glitches

Once you defeated Druegar (first boss in the shrine) go back to the ruins and if you go north east again, a little further up from the place where the rock monsters are and you can see Mosquitoes flying around in the air. Try to get close to them and they will slowly but surely follow you. Slowly walk down to get to the village and make sure they are following. Just before you go across to the Mosquitoes are there, right next to you. When you cross over you should get a message saying something about the Mosquitoes not being in pursuit no more. Then you will get you well deserve achievement.

Sleep in three women's beds.

Unknown kind Optional Unknown No glitches

1. Talk to Lillia right from the start of the game. Then go to the house you started in and walk upto her bed. Make sure you are holding down the button to make your character move. After a second a message will come up saying if you want to sleep in the bed.
2. When you go to Zalem's store, talk to her first then buy something. Once you done this, go to her bed and do the same as above to prompt the message to sleep in her bed.
3. Right at the end talk to Maria when you are going to fight the final boss. Once you done this, go all the way back to her house and sleep in her bed.

Make all the animals in Ramia Village absolutely adore you.

Unknown kind Optional Unknown No glitches

There are 4 animals in this village.
1 cat- the cat lives in some guy’s house. Feed it raw and cooked meat. If you need to, go back to Theo and Nash to and give some more gifts to them. They will always give you their meat if you have none.
1 goat- feed it herbs and cranberry
2 rams- feed it herbs and cranberry
If the achievement haven't pinged, keep giving food to all the animals until it does.

Note: To save time buying/finding the items and feeding them to the animals you can save the game then feed the items to the animals. Then reload and feed it to the next animal. This allows you to please each animal once for every reload instead of making them all happy which saves you your items

Unlock all details for all non-boss bestiary entries.

This is can be done if you get the bestiary potion. You can get this potion by finding a mattock in the shrine(use faqs if you can't find it) and then go over to the area where you see a chest which has no entrance(not the one guarded). You should see a crack on the wall. Use the mattock and collect the Bestiary potion. You need to defeat the same monster many times and you have to keep on checking if you got all information from the monster in your notes.
