I wanted to join in on the fun, so here is my rendition of the Palia character template by @blighted-elf !
I'm only just over 24+ in game hours, so I've still got a ways to go 🫡 (I haven't even actually picked my Shepp yet 💔🥲 Delaila I'm coming for you!!!) but boy howdy does this game scratch my Stardew Valley, Genshin Impact, My Time At Portia/Sandrock itch!
Although Caleri and Ashura take precedent as the besties™, I have it on good authority that Oak is very close with Jina and Hekla too 😋
I didn't want to go too deep into Oak's pre-Palia backstory (given we don't yet know what time period these humans are returning from, or where, though I would hazard to guess
[SPOILER WARNING? Not really, but for any newbies who are cautious about generic lore tidbits 😅]
it's sometime around the end of the world we've been learning about.)
Born in winter, under a waxing crescent moon, Oak bears the Star Path of the "Earth Farmer" - patient and practical, confident and kind, they're an honest hard worker, with a touch of blunt humour.
She spends her time fletching arrows for her next hunt, chopping firewood out in the Pulsewater Plains, or desperately trying to find a way to politely decline Delaila's latest apple pie.
I look forward to playing more, and am excited to see where future updates take us!
I highly recommend anyone else to make their own version of @blighted-elf 's template. It's such good fun, and I'd love to see some other people's characters 🙏
