Stardew Valley - Character Hub

Each Stardew Valley character has their own life and personality, so when you arrive in Pelican Town to rebuild your grandfather's farm, you'll want to start interacting with them. Most importantly, you'll want to build your own relationships with them. Therefore we've created this handy guide to give you all the information you could need about the NPCs of Stardew Valley.

All Stardew Valley characters and their ages

Stardew Valley characters' ages all remain the same, no matter how many years your farm is active. However, we only have approximations for their true ages, so we've compiled them into the handy table below.

What is the best character to marry in Stardew Valley?

A number of these NPCs are actually eligible bachelors and bachelorettes. The community of Stardew Valley is void of any sexual orientation or preference, meaning you can therefore marry whomever you want. Provided you can persuade them to, of course.

Each Stardew Valley character comes with their own room at your farmhouse, and this means they also offer certain perks to you and your farm once they become your spouse. So it depends on your playstyle and the things you have a greater need for when deciding who to marry. Alternatively, you could of course just marry and divorce everyone in quick succession. We've created a handy table below that details what marriage with each NPC looks like.

These spousal gifts mirror the Stardew Valley character's favourite gifts to receive. So after you've spent time romancing them, you'll have a good idea as to what you might receive in return once you're married.

All character locations

Stardew Valley characters all live their own lives in their own homes. However, some family units live together, and some have their own places. So we've created a handy table below that details where in the valley your NPCs live, as well as their frequent hang-out spots. Additionally, you can view the town on the map and hover your cursor over each house, so that it gives you the address.

Character gifts

Gifting is a huge part of interacting with the NPCs of Stardew Valley. For example, you can form friendships, offend those that have annoyed you, or even form a romantic relationship with them if you try hard enough. Additionally, each Stardew Valley character adheres to universally liked or disliked gifts, but there are a number of items specific to each character. So, whether they love them or hate them, you can check out our extensive guide to gifting in Stardew Valley.

Stardew Valley character birthdays

Each character in ConfusedApe's infamous farming RPG has a birthday that can be celebrated with a gift. In short, this works wonders if you're trying to build up your friendship status with someone, or if you're trying to woo them enough to get them down the aisle. But since there are so many NPCs to keep track of, so it's worth keeping an eye on when their birthdays are approaching.

You can find a full calendar outside of Pierre's General Store that highlights birthdays as well as important festival dates. But if you want to ensure your yearly social events are accounted for, you can have a look at our table below detailing each character's birthday per season.

So, there's our extensive guide to all the Stardew Valley characters! We'll be constantly updating this character hub with any new additions, and if you're looking for even more information then be sure to check out our Stardew Valley walkthrough hub.
