‍

Alex - The Jock

Alex is a local athlete. He still wears his letterman jacket despite graduating high school by this point and is frequently seen tossing a football in front of his house. He can be a little sensitive about his aspirations to become a professional athlete, but if you support his need for protein, enthusiasm for playing catch, and love of the beach, he'll quickly make friends.

Age: Unknown, but based on the letterman jacket he is wearing, it is believed to be between 18 and 20.

Height: Unknown, but based on sprite comparisons, it is believed to be 6'0".

Birthday: Summer, 13 years old

‍

Elliott - The Writer

Elliott enjoys the solitude of his beachfront home much more than the noise of the city streets. The only people he knows are the local artist Leah and the fisherman Willy. That's better because having too many social commitments would prevent him from writing. Elliott is one of the best potential romantic partners in Stardew Valley because, despite his initial impression of being haughty and arrogant, he is a kind man who supports the player's farming aspirations.

Age: Never stated, but based on his independent demeanor and Hemmingway-like writer lifestyle, he was assumed to be between 25-28 years old.

Height: Unknown, but based on sprite comparisons, it is believed to be 6'1".

Birthday: 5 Fall

‍

Harvey - The Medic

As the sole physician in Pelican Town, Harvey devotes most of his time to monitoring the health of the other residents. He is extremely healthy for his age, and the player can see him exercising around town when he is not in the clinic. Harvey will undoubtedly offer some unnecessary medical advice during a brief conversation, but at least he has good intentions.

Age: Unknown, but it is assumed that he is in his early 30s because he appears young but has completed medical school.

Height: Unknown, but based on sprite comparisons, it is believed to be 6'2".

Birthday: 14 Winter

‍

Sam - The Musician

Sam is an accomplished guitarist and drummer. Once he has enough songs written, he hopes to form a band with his best friend, Sebastian. He currently resides with his parents, Kent and Jodi. Sam is adored by his younger brother Vincent, who aspires to be just like him when he grows up. His part-time job at JojaMart pays for his music equipment.

Age: Unknown, but it is assumed that he is 20 years old because he still lives with his parents and has a part-time job.

Height: Unknown, but based on sprite comparisons, it is believed to be 5'11".

Birthday: 17 Summer

‍

Sebastian - The Loner

At first, Sebastian can be a little difficult to get to know; he certainly doesn't make things simple for the player. He is Maru's half-brother because Robin is his mother, and Demetrius is his stepfather. Sebastian has felt abandoned and dejected ever since Maru was born. He thus primarily spends his time playing pool with Sam at The Stardrop Saloon or using the computer in his bedroom in the basement. He's still a great choice for the players.

Age: Unknown, but based on the generations of his parents and sister, it is believed that he is around 25 years old.

Height: Unknown, but based on sprite comparisons, it is believed to be 5'8".

Birthday: 10 Winter

‍

Shane - The Down-On-His-Luck Sweetheart

One of the saddest tales from Stardew Valley is about Shane, who battles severe depression and alcoholism. The Stardrop Saloon is where he spends most of his time, drinking away his problems. His 9 to 5 job at the JojaMart saps his energy and patience because it is a typical Monday through Friday job. Shane's aunt Marnie lets him stay with her while he gets himself together and dusts off.

Age: Unknown, but believed to be in his late 20s. Due to his lifestyle choices, he probably appears older than he is.

Height: Unknown, but guessed to be 5'7"

Birthday: 20 Spring

‍

Abigail - The Rebel

Young Abigail is still going through her rebellious phase, or so her mother, Caroline, believes. She worries about Abigail's interest in "occult nonsense" and wishes Abigail would let her hair return to its natural color. Unconcerned, Abigail enthusiastically engages in her hobbies. She plays the flute, among other instruments, and serves as the band's drummer for Sam and Sebastian.

Age: Unknown, but assumed to be around 20, given that she is independent but continues to live with her parents.

Height: Unknown, but based on sprite comparisons, it is believed to be 5'0".

Birthday: 13 Fall

‍

Emily - The Tailor

Don't let Emily's job at The Stardrop Saloon fool you—tailoring is her true love. Since cloth and wool can also be difficult to find in the city, she makes all her clothing and adores receiving them as gifts. While their parents are away traveling the world, she and her sister, Haley, live in and take care of their parent's house.

Age: Unknown, but based on her sister's apparent immaturity, it is believed that she is around 25 years old.

Height: Unknown, but guessed to be 5'9"

Birthday: 27 Spring

‍

Haley - The Beauty

While their parents are away, Haley resides in the family home with her sister Emily. She had a wealthy upbringing and was loved by her family so she might appear arrogant initially. She spends the majority of her time on hobbies like makeup and fashion. She does, however, have a sweet side if the player is motivated to show it.

Age: Unknown, but it is assumed that she is around 23 years old and has recently completed her post-secondary studies.

Height: Unknown, but based on sprite comparisons, it is believed to be 5'5"

Birthday: 14 Spring

‍

Leah - The Artist

Leah is silent (if not as reserved as her friend Elliot). She is a gifted artist with a sizable portfolio but is too modest to display. She works on sculptures in her cottage every morning. After that, the player can probably catch a glimpse of her picking mushrooms or other wild plants in the nearby forest. Leah's self-assurance may be low, but her affection for her friends is contagious.

Age: Unknown, but based on the fact that she was in a committed relationship before relocating to Stardew Valley, it is assumed that she is in her mid-to-late 20s.

Height: Unknown, but based on sprite comparisons, it is believed to be 5'3".

Birthday: 23 Winter

‍

Maru - The Tinkerer

Maru is one of Harvey's few close friends because she is a nurse at the Pelican Town clinic. Although Sebastian is her half-brother, she is the daughter of Robin and Demetrius, and the two don't often get along. Maru was inspired by her scientist father and carpenter mother to pursue her passion for invention at a young age.

Age: Unknown, but given that she is a fully licensed nurse, it is assumed that she is in her early to mid-20s.

Height: Unknown, but based on sprite comparisons, it is believed to be 5'4"

Birthday: 10 Summer

‍

Penny - The Reader

Penny is the definition of a bookworm; you can frequently find her at the library or a museum with her nose buried in a book. Vincent and Jas, the town's two kids, are taught by her since Pelican Town lacks a school. Penny, who lives in a trailer with her mother Pam in a city, only has modest aspirations of getting married and having a family, perhaps with the player.

Age: Unknown, but based on the fact that she still lives with her mother and also likely staying because of financial difficulties, it is assumed that she is in her early 20s.

Height: Unknown, but based on sprite comparisons, it is believed to be 5'1"

Birthday: 2 Fall

‍

Pam - The Barfly

Although Pam is Penny's mother, the two of them are utterly dissimilar. Pam enjoys spending her evenings socializing with others in the bar.

Height: Unknown, but guessed to be 5' (with her hair adding a little flower)

Along with Marnie, Emily, and Robin, the two of them take an aerobics class. She claims she enjoys helping Evelyn maintain the town's public gardens in her spare time.

Age: Unknown, but since she is Abigail's mother, it is assumed that she is in her early to mid-forties.

Height: Unknown, but guessed to be 5'5"

Birthday: 7 Winter

‍

Pierre - The Shopkeeper

The general store proprietor in Pelican Town, Pierre, is Abigail's father and Caroline's spouse. Even though the local JojaMart has caused him misery, he is extremely proud of his locally owned and operated business. Pierre enjoys visiting the Stardrop Saloon in the evenings to unwind and socialize with his neighbors. To Abigail's dismay, her father (or not...? ), who would love to adopt a cat, is allergic.

Age: Unknown, but since he is Abigail's father, it is assumed that he is in his early 40s.

Height: Unknown, but guessed to be 6'0"

Birthday: 26 Spring

‍

Morris - The Capitalist

Stardew Valley's main message is to leave the city and lead a tranquil, healthy life in the countryside. To tempt you back into the mega-corporation, Morris is the devil, Joja. He competes with Pierre for customers at the neighborhood supermarket he owns and operates, the JojaMart. Thankfully, if you finish the Community Centre with Junimos' assistance, you can drive him out of town.

Age: Unknown, but guessed to be in his 30s

Willy - The Fisherman

Willy resides on the beach outside the town and is a devoted fisherman. Elliott is his only friend, and they live near the ocean.

Height: Unknown, but guessed to be 5'10"

Birthday: 24 Summer

Wizard - The Magician

A magician named The Wizard, also known as M. Rasmodius, resides in a tower west of Cindersap Forest. Although he has a reserved demeanor ideal for a life of study, he doesn't seem to despise the locals.
