Sovereign Tower How to Recruit Victoria

Victoria of the City of Enberg is the late-game Round Table monster community sheets refuse to nerf in conversation. Stat totals near 67 with a locked sword bump make her the absurd Act 3 prize — if you navigate her welcome, invitation fork, and trial gauntlet. Sovereign Tower launched August 6, 2026; recruitment steps below match mid-August community guides from Bonus Action and TposeGaming-style roundups.

Spoilers for Act 3 politics and the Enberg murder thread that also gates Gothild.

Why Victoria matters

• Near-max lines across Strength, Agility, Charisma, Magic, Wits, and Luck.
• Solves endgame cards that punish thin rosters after the Act 3 ten-seat cap still fails to hold every name.
• Ties into Enberg investigation politics — recruiting her carefully interacts with How to Get Gothild.

She is not an early Map Room impulse buy. Budget attention in Act 3 when emergencies like Grest Pirates and Avalon dragon work already strain Demon rewinds.

Step-by-step recruitment

1. Welcome Victoria into your Tower when her Act 3 audience / visit thread begins. Rejecting the visit can soft-lock the chain.
2. At the final fork of her first audience, pick the invitation line community guides quote as: Would a knight of your caliber agree to join my Round Table?
3. Victoria sets trials — quest cards or challenges you must clear with your current roster.
4. After the trials complete, accept her at the trials-completed audience.
5. Confirm a free seat under the Act 3 ten-knight cap. You cannot dismiss anyone to make room.

Some write-ups compress this to “talk to her and finish every quest she gives.” Both framings agree: half-finishing trials does not grant the seat.

Trial and roster advice

• Pre-buff with favourite meals (Cooking) before each trial card.
• Match six stats honestly — Victoria’s own sheet is a reminder the game still checks averages and traits (Quest Scoring).
• Keep forge repairs cheap after Patch 1.0.8 cost reductions when trials damage armour.
• Use the Knight Quest Matcher if a trial tag is unfamiliar.
• Do not schedule her invitation week on top of the Act 2 murder cleanup if you still owe Demon time — Stop the Act 2 Murder.

Victoria and Gothild

Enberg’s murder investigation into Yohav can implicate Victoria when you send high-Wits knights on Suspect Interrogations. Resolving that line frees Gothild. Second-run ambush options against Victoria appear in some NG+ notes — see New Game Plus and How to Get Gothild. Decision implication: treating Victoria only as a murder suspect can deny or delay the strongest hire; treating her only as a recruit can change Gothild timing. Plan which completionist badge you want first.

Common failures

• Never inviting her at the first-audience fork.
• Leaving trials unfinished while chasing Avalon side content.
• No free seat at the victory audience.
• Confusing Edith’s Moonvale ask (dragon/spell knight) with Victoria’s Enberg trials — Edith is a different Act 3 recruit.

Affinity and romance caution

Victoria’s power does not exempt her from resignation maths. Feed preferred meals, avoid shoving her onto disliked comedy cards, and remember multi-romance penalties still apply if you flirt across the table while chasing Love Is All. Keep Knight Loyalty open during trial weeks when failures ding the whole party.

If you are also protecting Path of the Pure for the Golden Key, do not schedule suicide sends beside her trials — one corpse voids purity even if Victoria later carries your endgame.

Victoria is the Round Table admitting power fantasy still exists after thirty cycles of goose politics. Invite with courage, clear every trial, and leave the tenth chair warm.
