Rune Factory 3: Character introductions

rune factory 3 castSomewhere in my heart I’m not quite ready to let Rune Factory 3 go yet, though I am looking forward to the upcoming “Twin Villages“. So while there’s still lingering affection in my heart for this game, I thought I’d do a quick write-up of the villagers in the game (excluding the marriage candidates) and their likes and dislikes. If I still feel up to it later I’ll do the marriage candidates as well.

Wells

Head of the village. Monica and Shia’s grandfather. Dislikes monsters but is generally a good guy.

Birthday: Winter 19
Favorites: Dango (だんご), expensive flowers (高級な花), mago no te (まごの手).
Also likes: Japanese food, grilled fish, sashimi, ordinary flowers.
Hates: Jams, cakes.

Also likes: Metal ore (including junk ore), udon dishes.

    Thnx, i was hoping to find their likes/dislikes and now I found them. Thnx for sharing!

    Ps, does anyone happen to know how to build a pet house? Talking with Gaji doesn’t work…

      I don’t know what they called it in the English version, but you have to finish the Pribella Forest dungeon (the first one), and have 40 logs before Gaji can start building pet houses for you.
