Summary
Hi, First let me start off by saying, if you are a scripter, you are smarter than I. I'm not very good with scripts so I'm hoping for something simple script wise or step by step instructions on how to event this. Picture if you will: Player is in control of a lone character. That character frees three others from an orc camp prison. The four characters join to form a party. They adventure together and before long lose themselves in a new world.

First let me start off by saying, if you are a scripter, you are smarter than I. I'm not very good with scripts so I'm hoping for something simple script wise or step by step instructions on how to event this.
Picture if you will:
Player is in control of a lone character. That character frees three others from an orc camp prison. The four characters join to form a party. They adventure together and before long lose themselves in a new world. They fight side by side, saving each other's hides time and time again. This game is being created with RPG maker XP. "RPG" Role Playing Game. The end user or player is playing a role in the story. What if down the line, the player thinks, "This Mission could use a mage,"
The Lead character (the lone character the player started in the beginning) might as well be thinking the same thing. But would the lead character also ever consider sacrificing one of his friends just so he could fill the open slot with a mage?
My idea for my game is to create a place for recruitment, but I want to make sure the player can get the switched out character back. I don't know how to do this in eventing or scripts. All the scripts I can find are for switching parties not just characters, and of those scripts, they are not plug and play or anywhere near that. Too complicated for my needs or capabilities.
What I am looking for is a script or event that will allow the player to hire a new character and leave the dismissed character in its place, so the player can come back and recruit the old character back into the party later on. A character should not have to die to create space for a new party member in my opinion. Below is some visuals and as much info as I can muster. Please help me.
These are scripts I am using:
EDIT: I know the names are hard to read, so here they are:
001: Gargash
002: Gloria
003: Eric
004: Borzan
005: Cloey
006: Mylar
007: Ruby
008: Hank
009: Hazel
010: Lysia
011: Killary
012: Mazon
013: Teresa
014: Corrina
015: Kelvin
Beginning party consists of Mylar, Hazel, Borzan, and Ruby.
