Harvest Moon: Skytree Village introduces its bachelors
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 3 Comments
Today, Natsume shared the lineup of marriageable candidates in Harvest Moon: Skytree Village. Three characters are introduced: Dean, Cyril, and Gabriel.
Get the lowdown on each character straight from Natsume below. We also have a few screenshots and art in the gallery.
Dean is a big-hearted, strong young man with a love of flowers, which got him teased as a young child. Dean and his mother Carol came to the village to plant the mysterious seedling his late father left to them. Dean works in town as a florist, along with his mother.
“If you listen to flowers closely, they will tell you just what they need. Give them what they ask for, and they’ll blossom beautifully!” -Dean
Cyril is dashing aristocrat who comes from a famous family. He is serious, but a bit forgetful and gullible. However, he is an extremely straightforward and honest person, as is always trying to do the right thing.
“All I can offer is the earnest pledge of a gentleman to do my bit with a stiff upper lip and a tally-ho!” -Cyril
Gabriel is the oldest son of Sofia, the livestock keeper, and has a younger brother, Michael. He is a quite shy, and isn’t very good at talking to people, but his love of animals shines through in everything he does.
“I don’t express myself well… It takes me a long time to find the words.” -Gabriel
