22 | The [[PlayerCharacter player characters]]. Angela and Kevin for ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonTreeOfTranquility Tree of Tranquility]]'', and all four in ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]''. |
23 | |
24 | ---- |
25 | %%* TheAce |
26 | * TheChosenOne: This is pretty much the explanation for Finn's existence in ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]''--he's the guide to help the chosen one restore the Goddess Tree. |
27 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Arguable only for Molly, who sometimes looks red-haired in artwork. |
28 | * DubNameChange: They are known as "Akari", "Takeru", "Hikari", and "Yuuki" in Japan. |
29 | * FairyCompanion: Finn the Harvest Sprite becomes one for the player in Animal Parade. |
30 | * FairytaleWeddingDress: Of all the unique wedding dresses the bachelorettes wear, Molly/Angela has the closest one to a ballgown. |
31 | * FriendToAllLivingThings: Except moles. |
32 | * GenerationXerox: The NewGamePlus mode of ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonTreeOfTranquility Tree of Tranquility]]'' has you playing as your child... Who looks exactly like you do, lives in a town exactly like yours, and can even (provided they're the same gender as your original character) ''marry the same person.'' [[ParentalIncest Um.]] Also, ''their'' child can start a new adventure, continuing the cycle for as long as you choose to. |
33 | * HaremSeeker: Considering the number of marriage candidates in the game, you can certainly make your character into this. |
34 | * HelloInsertNameHere: Their default names are already in the blanks, but most people just ignore them. |
35 | * HeroicMime: As always, aside from canned answers during [[ScriptedEvent Scripted Events]]. You see your character's mouth moving often, but there are never any words. Somewhat subverted in ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonTreeOfTranquility Tree of Tranquility]]''. Both Kevin and Angela will say "Let's go!" when waking up and starting a new day; "There, there" when tending to their animals; and "Great!" when receiving a tool, or during certain events. These, however, are voice clips spoken aloud. These clips weren't terribly popular with the fans. |
36 | * IdiotHair: All of them, with the exception of Kasey, who has HairAntennae. |
37 | * VirtualPaperDoll: You can dress them up in different outfits and accessories once you purchase them at the tailor's or festivals, or have them made by the blacksmith. |

47 | A gentle, graceful young woman who lives on her parents' farm, which is where she's usually found. She is interested in medicine and healing. |
48 | |
49 | ---- |
50 | * AloofDarkHairedGirl: She is not necessarily cold, but certainly on the more reserved and mature side than many of the other bachelorettes. |
51 | * CantHoldHerLiquor: More mild than most, but the reason she gives for not liking cocktails is that they give her awful headaches. |
52 | * CoolBigSis: To Taylor. |
53 | * DubNameChange: She is known as "Anise" in Japan. |
54 | %%* FearOfThunder |
55 | * FloralThemeNaming: Only in the Japanese version. There, her name is Anise, and her brother's name is Thyme. |

67 | A waitress at the inn. Loves fine cuisine, but couldn't make it herself if her life depended on it. |
68 | |
69 | ---- |
70 | * BigEater: Given how much she likes to talk about food. |
71 | %%* CuteClumsyGirl |
72 | * TheCutie: Not surprising, given what her [[SickeninglySweethearts parents are like.]] |
73 | * DubNameChange: She's called "Mai" in Japan. |
74 | * FeminineWomenCanCook: Subverted. The entire basis of her character is this. |
75 | * FrenchMaidOutfit: Her winter ensemble is reminiscent of this. |
76 | %%* GenkiGirl |
77 | * LethalChef: Despite this, she has her own cooking show, if only out of the "Those who cannot do..." school of thought. |
78 | * NeverGetsFat: Thin as a stick despite her apparent gluttony. |
79 | * ProneToTears: Cries pretty often, particularly (and [[{{JustifiedTrope}} rightfully so]]) when Chase is berating her for her awful cooking skills. |
80 | * SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The Energetic Girl to Chase's Savvy Guy. |
81 | * ASideOrderOfRomance: Should she romance the player character. |

98 | * GirlNextDoor: Renee is very easy to approach and has a wholesome personality. She's available to woo from the get-go and is the local [[FarmersDaughter rancher's daughter]], which encourages interaction with the player. Arguably, she's the [[ImpliedLoveInterest "default" romance choice]] for male players. |
99 | * HappilyMarried: If she marries Toby, they're never seen fighting in their rival cutscenes or after. |
100 | %%zce* NiceGirl |
101 | * PatchworkKids: Has her father's hair color and mother's eye color. |
102 | * PinkMeansFeminine: Her Fall/Winter outfit. |

111 | A native from Toucan Island who dreams of leaving home and working as a dancer. |

116 | * DeclarationOfPersonalIndependence: When she leaves Toucan Island against her mother's wishes and sends a letter back to her parents. |
117 | * DefrostingIceQueen: Seems like an AlphaBitch at first but becomes noticeably nicer as you befriend her. |
118 | * DrearyHalfLiddedEyes: Has significantly hooded eyes, likely to give her a somewhat seductive look. |
119 | * DubNameChange: She is named "Sheila" in Japan. |
120 | * ExposedToTheElements: Her winter outfit is basically nothing but a different color belly dancer outfit. |
121 | * FieryRedhead: Especially prominent in her rival cutscenes with Luke. |
122 | * FishOutOfWater: Being from a tropical climate, she hates the cold seasons. She also frequently comments on the different culture, and some of the festivals seem lost on her. |
123 | %%* MsFanservice |
124 | * RedheadInGreen: For her winter outfit. |
125 | * SmugSmiler: Her default expression features a smirk. |
126 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: Has her father's hair color, eye color, skin color, and eye shape. |

136 | |
137 | ---- |
138 | * DubNameChange: She is named "Pat" in Japan. |
139 | * {{Expy}}: She's oddly similar to Flora from ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAWonderfulLife AWL]]/[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonDS DS]]'', both in working with an archaeologist, some clothing, and being a BespectacledCutie. |
140 | %%* GadgeteerGenius |
141 | * OutdoorsyGal: Spends most of her time in the mines. |
142 | * SmartPeopleWearGlasses: She is almost certainly the most book smart of all the bachelorettes, being an inventor, and is also the only one to wear glasses. |

151 | |
152 | ---- |
153 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindows: Blue eyes, blue hair. |
154 | * CuteOversizedSleeves: Not super exaggerated, but her cardigan sleeves in both outfits are a little oversized. |
155 | * DubNameChange: She is named "Kotomi" in Japan. |
156 | * ICantBelieveAGuyLikeYouWouldNoticeMe |
157 | * OppositesAttract: Julius is much more open than her. |

168 | |
169 | Candace's younger sister. Unlike her older sibling, Luna is outgoing--and even a little rude! She looks very young, but [[OlderThanTheyLook don't believe that for a second.]] |
170 | |
171 | ---- |
172 | * BigBrotherInstinct: Inverted; she's younger than Candace, but she can still be protective of her shy older sister. She does NOT want Julius talking to Candace, due to how he treated Candace when they were kids. |
173 | * BerserkButton: Do NOT suggest that she's immature in any way. |
174 | * DubNameChange: She is named "Ruumi" in Japan. |
175 | * ElegantGothicLolita: She dresses like this from time to time. It doesn't help her look much older. |
176 | * TheFashionista: She's much more interested in wearing clothes than making them by her own admission. |
177 | * FlowersOfFemininity: Her hair is filled with flowers. |
178 | * GirlishPigtails: Lest we forget a single aspect of her appearance... |
179 | * OlderThanTheyLook: In ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonTreeOfTranquility Tree Of Tranquility]]'' she was kind of short, but still available as a marriage candidate. |
180 | * PlayfulPursuit: Her final rival heart event with Gill has her evoke this. |
181 | * PlotRelevantAgeUp: Moreso a Reboot Relevant Height Increase. In ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonTreeOfTranquility Tree of Tranquility]]'', [[OlderThanTheyLook she was so short she looked like she was the same age as the other children on the island.]] In ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]'', despite her age not being changed, she was made taller. |
182 | %%* RaisedByGrandparents |
183 | * SiblingYinYang: She's the outgoing and brash counterpart to Candace's shyness. |
184 | * SweetTooth: The majority of her most-loved gifts are desserts, such as [[TrademarkFavoriteFood pie]] and cake. |
185 | * TooMuchAlike: With Selena. Nearly gets into a CatFight with her because they're both too sassy when a misunderstanding occurs. |
186 | %%* {{Tsundere}} |
187 | * [[ManChild Woman Child]]: Behaves like this in her rival cutscenes with Gill, even if she flat-out [[BerserkButton denies]] being immature. Justified, as she's 16, and not technically adult yet in [[ValuesDissonance most cultures.]] |

201 | * NotSoDifferentRemark: Says this to the protagonist about Selena and Luna after their spat. |
202 | * ASideOrderOfRomance: If romanced by the player character. |
203 | %%* TomboyishPonytail |
204 | * {{Tsundere}}: For Owen. |
205 | * TsurimeEyes: Reflects her strong personality. |
206 | * TheUglyGuysHotDaughter: While "ugly" may be a tad harsh to describe Hayden, Kathy looks ''nothing'' like him. If you squint, you can see they both have green eyes, but that's about it. |
207 | |
208 | !!Witch (''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]'') |
209 | [[quoteright:195:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/witchap.png]] |
210 | |
211 | * BewitchedAmphibians: You initially meet her as a pink frog. [[spoiler:Thanks to the Wizard, she gets better.]] |
212 | * CuteWitch: A staple of the series. |
213 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: Possibly. There are some hints at this, like how she doesn't get along well with the Harvest King or how she says she doesn't know what to do if you died or disappeared suddenly (if you're married to her that is). |
214 | * DivergentCharacterEvolution: The main thing that separates her from the Witch Princess, whom she's an obvious {{Expy}} of? The Witch Princess is usually the Harvest Goddess' nemesis. Here, she's one of her staunchest allies. |
215 | * TheHermit: As a result of being a witch and living alone deep in the Fugue Forest, she can be abrasive. During most festivals, she says that they don't interest her enough to participate. |
216 | * LoveFreak: Unlike the Wizard, she says that she is fascinated by the concept of romance. |
217 | * MsFanservice: She is certainly the flashiest out of the witches in Harvest Moon, dressed in just a corset, bloomer-like shorts, and stockings. |
218 | * MysticalWhiteHair: Has long white hair, which she passes on to her children. |
219 | * NoNameGiven: [[spoiler:Until she is married, which she reveals it to be Vivi.]] |
220 | * OlderThanTheyLook: She has lived on the island longer than most of its residents and tells the player that she will continue to live for a long time. |
221 | * PetTheDog: She greatly respects the Harvest Goddess. In fact, her failed spell was meant to revive the Goddess Tree. |
222 | * SupernaturalGoldEyes: More of an orange hue, but still in effect. |

234 | * HotGod: She looks like an attractive young woman. |
235 | * ImprobableHairstyle: Has the most physics-defying, intricate, wacky hairstyle of any character by far. Perhaps justified since she's a ''goddess,'' but still... how does that hair loop in the back even work? |
236 | * InterspeciesRomance: The male protagonists are humans who can marry her. |
237 | * MayflyDecemberRomance: Being a goddess, she will outlive her human husband. |
238 | * NoNameGiven: [[spoiler:Her name is Sephia, but she doesn't tell you that unless you marry her.]] |
239 | * PhysicalGod: She's a physical goddess. However, few humans can see her. |

249 | |
250 | A doctor who works at the local clinic. |
251 | |
252 | ---- |
253 | * AsiansLoveTea: Both green and herbal tea are some of his most-loved gifts. Slightly downplayed in that a lot of other villagers also like or love tea, but usually not both kinds. |
254 | * DoesNotLikeSpam: He hates cold drinks, mostly cocktails. |
255 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: Became a doctor [[spoiler:after trying to save his [[LostLenore first wife]] from terminal illness to no avail.]] |

257 | * DubNameChange: He is known as "Won" in Japan |

262 | * LongHairedPrettyBoy: Has his hair up in a ponytail. It still manages to reach his shoulders. |

264 | %%* StoicSpectacles |

271 | |
272 | A cook and waiter at the inn. In ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]'', he becomes the head chef at the bar, instead. |
273 | |
274 | ---- |
275 | * AngryChef: Frequently and brutally berates Maya whenever she tries to cook him something. He'll also be pretty harsh towards the player's food if it doesn't meet the requirements for his quest. |
276 | * BrutallyHonest: Won't hesitate to tell you how he truly feels about things, from food to other people. Usually it's negative, though he'll occasionally have something nice to say. |
277 | * CareerRevealingTrait: Wears an apron in both his outfits, hinting at being a cook. |
278 | * DeadpanSnarker: He comes off quite rude because of this. |
279 | * DubNameChange: He is named "Chihaya" in Japan. |
280 | * GameplayAndStorySegregation: There is a minor event where you can bring him certain dishes and he'll taste-test them for you. Giving him an orange cake during one of these would lead to him saying it's not good enough and to bring him a better dish. Ironically it's one of his favourite items. |
281 | * HairColorDissonance: It's difficult to tell if his hair is pink or orange. Perhaps it's an artistic interpretation of strawberry blond? |
282 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He tends to have a snarky way of speaking and teases or outright insults Maya up until he marries. He can be pretty mean to you too but if you befriend him he warms up to you. |
283 | * NoAccountingForTaste: He and Maya, sometimes. Their daughter Dakota points out the fact that they fight all the time and even cites it as the reason she'll never get a younger sister. |
284 | * ParentalAbandonment: In ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonTreeOfTranquility Tree of Tranquility]]'', he says that he can't remember his parents' faces. However, what happened to them is never mentioned (And the subject is never brought up in ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]''). WordOfGod has declared him an orphan. |
285 | * SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The Savvy Guy to Maya's Energetic Girl. |
286 | * SupremeChef: To contrast with his counterpart, Maya. He even says upon getting engaged to her that she doesn't have to try and cook anymore--just taste-test. |

299 | * BishieSparkle: His is even special-er amidst the normal BishieSparkle of the other candidates, because his sparkles have ''roses'' in them. |
300 | * {{Bowdlerize}}: In Japan, the first rival event between him and Candace in ''Animal Parade'' has him getting mad at Candace because [[IKnowYouKnowIKnow he thinks she thinks]] he's a crossdresser. In America, this was changed to him thinking she thinks he's... ''[[UnusualEuphemism short.]]'' In some sense, this makes it funnier--Candace never ''does'' say why, so one could interpret it as Julius being oblivious to how camp he acts. |
301 | * BoyfriendBlockingDad: Becomes this with Angie, despairing over how many boys she'll undoubtedly catch the eye of when she grows up. |
302 | * CampStraight: Goes on about beauty and fashion, but marries Candace, a girl. He's also an eligible bachelor for the female players. |
303 | * ChildhoodFriendRomance: Marries Candace if you don't, who've known each other since childhood. |
304 | * DubNameChange: He is named "Julie" in Japan. |
305 | * DotingParent: Certainly becomes this for Angie. |
306 | * DudeLooksLikeALady: "Candace is marrying the blacksmith? I thought he was a woman when I first met him!" And so did [[ViewerGenderConfusion a whack of the fandom]]. Even Candace thought that he was a girl when they were kids! |
307 | * GenderBlenderName: His Japanese name "Julie" is usually used for girls. |
308 | * HandsOffParenting: He notes that his parents travel all over the world and sometimes forget to contact. Somewhat justified in that Julius '''is''' an adult, so they know he can take care of himself. |
309 | %%* LongHairedPrettyBoy: Definitely fits the pretty boy criteria. Toes the line between this and having a long pony tail, but the "tail" is thick enough that it can just be considered long. |
310 | * {{Metrosexual}}: He's so flaming, he isn't allowed into barns, but he's still a bachelor. |
311 | * OppositesAttract: His relationship with Candace. |
312 | * PrettyInMink: His fabulous winter coat has fur trim. |

315 | * TechnicolorEyes: Has red eyes. |
316 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Sweet potato dishes and dishes that contain pumpkins. |
317 | * {{Tsundere}}: [[spoiler: Was this to Candace when they were kids. He bullied her, and when Luna confronts him about it he says that he did it [[LovingBully because he liked her]].]] |

328 | * DubNameChange: He is named "Tao" in Japan. |
329 | * EngagingConversation: How he proposes in his rival heart event. |
330 | * EyesAlwaysShut: It appears to be genetic. His uncle Ozzie, cousin Paolo, and his potential son with Renee, Matt, all have them as well. {{Lampshaded}} with Matt: "Everyone tells me he's got my eyes." Though when Toby does open them during some {{Cut Scene}}s, they're [[spoiler: green]]. Your child with him in ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]'' has [[spoiler: green eyes]] as well. |
331 | * HappilyMarried: If he marries Renee, they're never seen fighting in their rival cutscenes or after. |
332 | * HiddenDepths: [[spoiler:Romancing him reveals that he's aware that others don't have high standards for him because of his easygoing nature, and as a result, he has low self-esteem.]] |
333 | * MeaningfulName: In Japanese his name is Tao, after the East Asian philosophy that fits with his character. |
334 | * MellowFellow: Toby comes across as calm and relaxed most of the time. |

343 | |
344 | An arrogant and saucy man. He is the son of Mayor Hamilton. |
345 | |
346 | ---- |
347 | * AllThereInTheManual: Well, all there on [[http://www.bokumono.com/series/wakuwaku/ss/ss2.html the offical website]] (English translation is in the second post down [[http://www.fogu.com/hmforum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=122202&start=60 here]]) anyway; his backstory, which turns him from a plain JerkWithAHeartOfGold to a full JerkassWoobie. |
348 | * DefrostingIceKing: Becomes this if your character befriends or courts him. |
349 | * DrearyHalfLiddedEyes: Makes him look rather disdainful at any given time. |
350 | * DubNameChange: He is named "Gil" in Japan. |
351 | * HairFlip: Other characters have this animation as well, but Gill does it frequently enough that it could be considered a CharacterTic. |
352 | * HairstyleInertia: The sketch that accompanies his online story shows that he had the exact same hairstyle as a child. |
353 | * HiddenDepths: His snobbish appearance and aloof attitude might lead one to assume all he cares about is personal wealth, but once you befriend him it's immediately revealed that he cares deeply for the town and everyone in it. |
354 | --> '''Gill''': [My wish?] To make this town a great place to live, where everyone is safe and happy. And I want the town to prosper for as long as it stands. |
355 | * IcyBlueEyes: Goes well with his personality. |
356 | * IdiotHair: Though he's presumably quite intelligent. |
357 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: His grumpiness belies a genuinely noble attitude. |
358 | ** JerkassWoobie: [[spoiler: His mom died when he was seven. His father completely [[HeroicBSOD shut down]], so he had to take over as head of household. At ''seven''. Eventually he managed to make his dad all better, but ''really''...]] |
359 | * LoveAtFirstSight: If you court and propose to him in ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]'', he will tell the PC that he was in love with her from the moment they first met (despite acting rather aloof and cold at first). |
360 | * MissingMom: [[spoiler: Turns out she's not so much ''missing'' as ''dead''...]] |
361 | * {{Nepotism}}: Subverted. While it's unquestioned that he's going to be the next mayor after his father, he wants the job and has clearly worked hard for it. The implication is that if he didn't want to, someone else could become mayor. |
362 | * OneHourWorkWeek: Despite having ''at least'' four different jobs and outright telling you he can be found at the town hall, Gill is rarely ever seen beyond the front yard of his home. |
363 | * PerpetualFrowner: His default expression has a small frown. |
364 | * RenaissanceMan: Gill is the local news anchor; becomes the teacher once there are enough kids in town; works at the town hall, presumably assisting his father in administrative duties; ''and'' is... an actor? |
365 | * {{Schoolmarm}}: Becomes the sole teacher for all the kids in Harmonica Town. |
366 | * SharpDressedMan: Particularly for his winter outfit, which is a crisp white suit featuring a WaistcoatOfStyle. His summer outfit has a [[DorkInASweater slightly different vibe]], however... |
367 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: As it turns out, more to his mother than his dad in terms of hairstyle. |
368 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Tomato dishes, especially ratatouille. [[spoiler:Tragically, it's because they remind him of his mother's cooking.]] |
369 | * {{Tsundere}}: He often acts pushy towards/belittles the main character though he greatly respects them for restoring the island and will still tease them now and then if they become his close friend or girlfriend. |
370 | --> '''Gill''': Whatever... [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial It's not like I'm happy just because I got to see you]], HelloInsertNameHere... *blush* |
371 | * WackyParentSeriousChild: Hamilton comes across as the polar opposite of Gill: cheerful, goofy, and bumbling. |

383 | * ChildhoodFriends: With Owen. |
384 | * {{Expy}}: He's eerily reminiscent of Joe, the upbeat bandana-sporting carpenter from ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonSaveTheHomeland Save the Homeland]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonMagicalMelody Magical Melody]]''. |
385 | %%* TheFool |
386 | * FourthDateMarriage: With Selena. The first time they meet, they get into a fight; not much later, he basically asks her "Wanna get married?" out of the blue. [[spoiler: [[HappilyMarried They're one of the happiest rival couples]]. They're the only non-player couple portrayed as wanting more than one child, though, since StatusQuoIsGod, they don't get one.]] |
387 | * FriendToAllChildren: Surprisingly enough! He loves kids. |
388 | * HotBlooded: He loves things being EXTREME! |
389 | * LargeHam: No indoor voice? Check. Overly-enthusiastic? Check. Loves boasting? Check. |
390 | * MissingMom: She died when he was young. |
391 | * NoIndoorVoice: EXTREME! |
392 | * RedOniBlueOni: The Red to Bo's Blue, seen in their cutscene with Gill. |
393 | * ShonenHair: His hair, down to his eyebrows, is wildly spiky, indicating his hot-blooded personality. |
394 | * SignatureHeadgear: His bandana. He has a blue-flamed one for cold weather and a red-flamed one for warm weather. |
395 | * SleevesAreForWimps: In his summer outfit, his sleeves have been torn off. |
396 | * TechnicolorEyes: Gold, like his father's. |
397 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Anything spicy. |
398 | * UnknowinglyInLove: With Selena, after the first heart event between them has been triggered. Luke is very confused [[WhatIsThisFeeling why he feels "sick"]] and notes that the "symptoms intensify" when Selena is near. Then he jumps straight from [[LoveEpiphany realizing it]] to ''proposing'' on the spot. |

408 | * AbsentMindedProfessor: Some of the things he says indicates he enjoys letting his mind wander. |
409 | * AdventurerArchaeologist |
410 | * {{Expy}}: |
411 | ** He's reminiscent of Carter from ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAWonderfulLife AWL]]/[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonDS DS]]''; moreso in personality than appearance. (They're both stern-seeming archaeologists with boyish zeal for their work.) |
412 | ** Saying nothing of his resemblance to Franchise/IndianaJones. In one of their Rival Events in ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonTreeOfTranquility Tree of Tranquility]]'', Phoebe even says "[he's] like an adventurer from a movie or something!". Another cutscene has Calvin bursting out to Luke and Owen attempting to demolish a pamphlet: "It belongs in a museum!" A ShoutOut to ''Film/IndianaJonesAndTheLastCrusade.'' |
413 | * GameBreakingBug: Unmarriable in earlier copies of ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonTreeOfTranquility Tree of Tranquility]]'', due to a bug that would cause the game to freeze up when the player tried to complete a crucial marriage event. |
414 | * HairColorDissonance: Bright blonde in official art; light brown in-game. |
415 | * HiddenDepths: Despite his ''[[MrFanservice maaaanly]]'' appearance, he's actually very tender-hearted and awkward. |

417 | * LonelyBachelorPad: Lives at the Ocarina Inn until he marries either Phoebe or the player. |
418 | * MayDecemberRomance: If you pursue him, he alludes to being older than the protagonist, but there's no solid evidence that the gap is as big as he makes it out to be. His official description even calls him a "young man." |
419 | * MrFanservice: Someone at Marvelous apparently realized that most of the game's fans were girls, and started, uh, "catering" more to their interests. [[http://www.fogu.com/hm/animal_parade/bachelors.php#calvin Behold the result.]] Umm... ''wow.'' |

463 | * MustHaveCaffeine: He stays up all night (In fact, the only way to meet him before a certain event is to stay out until ''2 AM''), and most of his favorite items are coffee-related. ''Hmmm...'' |
464 | * MysticalWhiteHair: Due to being a wizard. Your children will inherit it. |

585 | * BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler: Not so much brainwashed as obsessive, but after finding the Wizard's crystal ball he becomes [[SanitySlippage a little bit insane...]]]] |
586 | * FamilyBusiness: He owns the Ocarina Inn, at which his mother, wife, and daughter all work. |
587 | * HappilyMarried: He's downright [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness uxorious.]] (That means doting on one's wife, and the word was probably created specifically to describe him.) |
588 | * TheJeeves: He's a well-put-together concierge, though subverted because he owns the inn he works at. |
589 | * {{Telepathy}}: Temporarily, anyway, [[spoiler: by using the Wizard's CrystalBall]]. |
590 | * ShoutOut: [[spoiler: He calls the crystal ball [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings "my precious"]] when refusing to give it back to the wizard.]] |
591 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: He loves anything that contains apples. |

595 | |
596 | Jake's wife and Maya's mother. |
597 | |
598 | ---- |
599 | * HappilyMarried: ''Ridiculously'' happily. She and Jake take the cake for schmoopiest couple in the series, and they've been married for at least twenty years. |

609 | |
610 | A little boy who hangs out at the lighthouse. Toby is his cousin. |
611 | |
612 | ---- |
613 | %%* CheerfulChild |
614 | * EyesAlwaysShut: Seems to be a genetic trait in the family, as both his dad and cousin Toby have this as well. |
615 | * MissingMom |
616 | * NotAllowedToGrowUp: Despite your own children aging (at least until a certain point), Paolo shows no sign of growing. Same goes for Chloe and Taylor, the only other children in town at the start of the game. |
617 | * WiseBeyondTheirYears: He turned the entire town into a RubeGoldbergDevice alongside Phoebe, and says some pretty mature things on occassion. Makes you think how old he really is... |

619 | !!Mayor Hamilton |
620 | [[quoteright:195:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ch_hamilton_hm_tree_of_tranquility.png]] |
621 | |
622 | The sunny mayor of Harmonica Town/Waffle Island. He is Gill's father and informs the player about town life, such as festivals. |
623 | |
624 | ---- |
625 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: According to Gill's short story, Hamilton had quite a [[HeroicBSoD rough]] [[TheAlcoholic patch]] after his [[LostLenore wife's passing]]. |
626 | * ImprobableHairstyle: There's a curl in the front sticking straight up that's almost as big as his head and he ''still'' manages to look like he's got male pattern baldness. |
627 | * IWantGrandkids: Can be potentially invoked if you marry Gill when he sends a letter containing friendly advice on how to have kids once you've tied the knot. Sadly, there isn't any dialogue to acknowledge this, so it's not necessarily intentional. |
628 | * MiniatureSeniorCitizens: He's very short. |
629 | * NosyNeighbor: Hamilton conveniently mails you tips on how to [[ShipperOnDeck ask someone out]], propose, and even ''have kids'' right when your character reaches those stages in their romance. It's a symptom of being the designated tutorial character, but it makes you wonder how and why he knows so much about your personal life. It's even funnier if you end up romancing Gill, [[AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents his son]]. |
630 | * PieEyed: Compared to all the other characters, Hamilton has tiny, beady eyes in a classic cartoon style. |
631 | * UltimateAuthorityMayor: There's never anything like an election. If there was, he would be the only candidate. |
632 | * WackyParentSeriousChild: Hamilton comes across as the polar opposite of Gill: cheerful, goofy, and bumbling. |

645 | |
646 | The head carpenter in town. Mentors Luke (his son) and Bo. |
647 | |
648 | ---- |
649 | * AnimalLover: A rather unusual burly, hyper-masculine version. In ''Animal Parade'' he has a pet dog named Boss, and Dale is the one who not only gives you the animal whistle but teaches you how to use it. |
650 | --> '''Dale''': In order to befriend an animal, you have to open your heart to it. |
651 | * GentleGiant: He gets annoyed at Luke sometimes, but is overall quite chill. |

661 | |
662 | ---- |
663 | * TheApprentice: Apprentice of Dale along with Luke. |
664 | * FriendToAllChildren: While he doesn't have much screentime interacting with kids, once the player character has their own children Bo has multiple dialogue lines about being jealous, oddly enough. |
665 | * RedOniBlueOni: The Blue Oni to Luke's Red, as seen in their cutscene with Gill. |
666 | * YouthfulFreckles: He's not a child, but is implied to be younger than most bachelors since he can't be married. |

683 | Selena's mother who lives on Toucan Island. |
684 | |
685 | ---- |
686 | * AmbiguouslyBrown: It's less clear if she is also supposed to be Hawaiian like her husband, but it is stated she grew up on Toucan Island and she has darker skin than most villagers. |
687 | %%* GratuitousForeignLanguage |
688 | %%* HappilyMarried |
689 | * MotherlySidePlait: Keeps her hair in a side ponytail. |

699 | * GenkiGirl: All grown up, but maintains the sort of personality. |
700 | %%* HappilyMarried |
701 | * OppositesAttract: Her husband Simon definitely isn't as peppy as her. It's most noticeable when they're standing next to each other at the New Year's Festival, where she's cheering happily and he's looking around all worried. |

707 | Rather more nervous and introverted than Barbara. In ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonTreeOfTranquility Tree of Tranquility]]'', he helps out around the general store, but in ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]'', he runs a camera store. In both, he is HappilyMarried to Barbara and is Phoebe's father. |
708 | |
709 | ---- |
710 | * {{Flanderization}}: He is [[CameraFiend obsessed with photography]] in ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonAnimalParade Animal Parade]]'', which introduces the camera feature. |
711 | * HappilyMarried: He and Barbara do argue, but they're pretty steadfast. |

733 | A kindly old lady who works at Sonata Tailoring. She is the grandmother of Candace and Luna. |
734 | |
735 | ---- |
736 | * FamilyBusiness: Both her granddaughters help out at the tailor shop, and it's implied they will take over when she is gone. |

749 | * TheBlacksmith: Yup. |
750 | * CoolOldGuy: He certainly looks the role and Chloe sees him this way. |
751 | * DotingGrandparent: Spoils Chloe a bit too much. [[GrandparentFavoritism Owen, not so much]]. |
752 | * {{Expy}}: Of Saibara from ''[[VideoGame/HarvestMoonBackToNature Mineral Town]].'' |

775 | * MrExposition: He's the first character the player meets in ''Animal Parade'', and explains to the player that the town has seen better days. |
776 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Cain is usually a very laid-back NiceGuy. However, if the farmer kills an animal by forgetting to feed it, he becomes visibly agitated and distraught towards the player. [[FridgeBrilliance Since he's likely to have raised that same animal from birth, it actually makes sense.]] |
777 | |

801 | * ChildProdigy: In one event he can teach your own child about precipitation and such. |

803 | * FollowingInRelativesFootsteps: Aspires to be a doctor when he grows up, like Jin. |
804 | * LittleProfessorDialog: Clearly reads a lot based on his vocabulary alone. |

841 | * PortmanteauCoupleName: Her name is literally her parents' names, ''Lu''ke and ''Se''lena, smashed together. |
842 | * ShyBlueHairedGirl: Subverted; despite her blue hair, Lucy is one of the most outgoing rival kids. If she had inherited her mother's red hair, she would have qualified as a FieryRedhead. |
843 | * SignatureHeadgear: Just like her dad, she wears a bandana at all times. However, hers has [[FlowersOfFemininity flowers]] on it rather than flames. |
844 | * TechnicolorEyes: No matter which parent's eyes she inherited, she would have these. She ended up with her mother's magenta color. |
845 | |

850 | |
851 | ---- |
852 | * ApatheticStudent: Despite his curious nature, Heath makes it clear he wishes he didn't need to go to school. He'd rather learn things in a more hands-on way. |
853 | --> '''Heath''': Why do I gotta go to school? I can learn everything I need to know just by going out adventuring, like my dad! |
854 | * ConstantlyCurious: He loves learning and is always asking questions. Not surprising given his inventor and archaeologist parents. |
855 | * FollowingInRelativesFootsteps: Wants to be an adventurer when he grows up, like his dad. |
856 | * SignatureHeadgear: Like his dad, he always wears a hat, though his is a pith helmet rather than a cowboy hat. |

866 | * GirlyGirl: Probably the girliest out of all the rival daughters, with her bow, pink dress, and interest in fashion. |
867 | * InnocentBlueEyes: Just look at her. This combos with TaremeEyes for her. |
868 | |

879 | * ProperLady: Aspires to be this; she has an event where she talks about loving etiquette lessons. |
880 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: Looks like a little gender-swapped clone of her father. Both her parents have blue eyes, so in an attempt at [[PatchworkKids blending their features]], she does have her mom's square eye shape. |
881 | * SugarAndIcePersonality: Seems to have largely taken on her father's aloof and serious personality, but she's much quicker to smile than he is. |
