How to Unlock Caldarus Events Gift Preferences ### How to Unlock Caldarus as a Romanceable Character in Fields of Mistria

To romance Caldarus in Fields of Mistria, you must break the Fire Seal located on Floor 60 of the mines. To do this, you'll need to offer four specific items: a Sealing Scroll, a Faceted Rock Gem, an Emerald, and a Rockroot. Once you complete the offering, a cutscene will play where the Mines Priestess warns the farmer to leave or risk being sealed. As your health depletes, Caldarus arrives, transforming into his human form, and grants you the Dragon’s Breath spell before retreating to the Deep Woods. In this new form, you can interact with Caldarus through gifts and daily conversations, similar to other dateable NPCs in Mistria.

After breaking the Fire Seal, you'll find Caldarus exclusively at his temple in the Deep Woods. Use the Dragon’s Breath spell to unlock this area permanently on your map.

Caldarus’ Heart Events in Fields of Mistria

With the March 2025 update, Caldarus starts with six hearts upon becoming romanceable, marking the current heart level cap. Unfortunately, there are no heart events for Caldarus at this time, but future updates are expected to add more.

Currently, you can experience a few cutscenes with the dragon. The first is a dream sequence that introduces you to Mistria’s magic system and gameplay mechanics. The second occurs when Caldarus saves the farmer from the sealing aftermath in the mines, revealing his human form and retreating to recover. Both scenes are part of the natural story progression.

Following the update, you can also trigger a date with Caldarus during the Shooting Star Festival, which takes place on Summer 28 in-game.

The Shooting Star Festival

The Shooting Star Festival marks the end of summer in Fields of Mistria, offering a chance to take romanceable NPCs with four or more hearts on a date to the Summit to watch the stars. Since Caldarus begins with six hearts, you're automatically eligible to go with him. To attend the festival with Caldarus, give him the Star Brooch before 8 PM on Summer 28 and meet up afterward to start the event, triggering a special cutscene.

During your date at the Summit, Caldarus expresses gratitude for the invitation and discusses the stars and the ancient Mistrian tradition of Starbinding. Your dialogue choices will explore themes of soul connections and the nature of relationships, with Caldarus hinting at deeper existential ideas and past-life connections. As the evening progresses, he invites you to continue watching the stars from his temple.
