Growths mode: You can choose between random growths, fixed growths, 0% growths and 100% growths at the start of the game.

Depending on how many turns you complete the game in, you can expect to receive the following rewards in subsequent playthroughs:
200 turns or less: Boots
190 turns or less: Set’s Litany
180 turns or less: Thor’s Ire
170 turns or less: Nini’s Grace
