I found myself in the same boat 3 months ago when I started playing again after missing all of Season 1.
1) Around Queen’s Jubilee is when the group dynamic starts comes together. Origins Madness is when Taimi comes into the picture and the group really gells.
2) Kasmeer mentioned that she hiccups when she’s frightened. (I think during the last story mission for Origins of Madness). That’s about it from what I remember.
You mentioned you will probably have more questions…I highly recommend taking the time to watch these videos made by the youtuber WoodenPotatoes. He made through recap/replay/analysis videos at the time of every Season 1 event. It’s over 6 hours of videos, but I don’t think you will find a more thorough recap of what happened in Season 1. He made them at the time of the events, so it was cool listening to what the community was speculating at the time. Made it feel like I was experiencing the content vicariously through him. Like I said, I missed all of Season 1, but I was able to answer your questions off the top of my head after watching his videos.
