📋 About This Mod
Rose
Rose traveled with her brother, Cori the Hat Mouse, from their little home in the mountains to find a place to open her own bakery. However, she was unaware of how suspicious some humans would be of her and her brother. After Morris runs them out of Pelican Town, Rose is now convinced she can never have human friends. The Alchemist, Wildflour, is obviously an exception. Right?
She may be a little shy with you at first, but perhaps you can show her not all humans are quite as scary as Morris?
Wildflour
An alchemist on the hunt for rare forage, Wildflour set up her Atelier in Sunberry once she realized strange mushrooms and flowers were seen sprouting in Sunberry Forest and Mountains. While out foraging in Cindersap Forest one day, she collides with a terrified field mouse named Rose. After chatting, she offers Rose a place to stay with her in Sunberry and they quickly become inseparable friends.
Community is very important to her, so she’s always happy to help any of the townsfolk out with her alchemy or foraging knowledge. Can you help the alchemist discover the rare forage she believes is hiding in Sunberry Forest?
