Selecting character

Hi, I wanted to know how to do this without involving script. Lets try explaining this in small detail:

I made a game with 4 character, at the start of the game you can pick 1 of the 4 character to begin their first chapter. When you finished one of their chapter, it goes back to selecting screen. But now there's 3 remaining and yeah finish those 3 character's chapter and later in the story they meet and blah blah.

To make it even more simple, an example of this system is in a game called Wild ARMs (possibly other Wild ARMs series).

So if someone can help me do this event-like thing thanks.
 
This is kind of difficult to explain without going into great depth, so I'll just explain it the simplest way I can. It may be better to put this "character selection" part off until you have a better understanding of RMXP.

The easiest way to do this for now is to just use a "Show Choices" command, where each choice is a character you can play as. Then the next time around, simply make that Choice Box have fewer choices.

Since the later choices can vary, you would need to keep track of which characters the player has played as using a variable, or switches, and construct the "show choices" that way.
 

Thank you for viewing
