First meeting

• Are you the new Builder? I'm Polly, it's nice to see other people try to bring about the telesis of this world...or at least that's what the Mayor likes to say, haha. Nice to meet you!

Stranger

Desires

The following items are desires, or wishes, which are randomly assigned to one or two characters per week. The player is required to be at least at Associate level with Toby for them to be assigned a desire. More desires have a chance to appear as the player's friendship with Toby progresses; the new desires are added to the existing ones but do not replace them. Some characters may desire an item that they do not normally like.

In the event that Toby has a desire, gifting the wanted item will provide the higher tier points; otherwise, on non-desired events, the item gives the base point value. The birthday or festival day relationship bonus applies when gifting a desired item. The following items are desires, which are randomly assigned to one or two NPCs per week. In the event that this NPC has a desire, gifting the wanted item will provide the higher tier points; otherwise, on non-desired events, the item gives the base point value.

Spar

Toby can spar with the player up to three times per day.

Note that the level in the table below is Toby's base level at the start of the game. Toby's actual level can be higher because Toby will level up over time.

Dates

Invitation

Occasionally, first thing in the morning, the player may leave their house to find Toby outside, hoping to invite the player out for a date or play date.

Play

Once the player has become buddies with Toby, they can schedule a play date together.

If the player chooses to dine at The Round Table with Toby during a play date or date, it is recommended to order dishes Toby will like. If asked before ordering, Toby will sometimes tell the player exactly which dishes to order; other times, Toby will just give little hints. In the event that Toby does not specify the exact foods desired, the player should order between three and six dishes, depending on what hint Toby gives. It is recommended to order each of those dishes from different courses, ex. ordering one Appetizer, Meat, Vegetable, Dessert, and Drink course each, rather than five Desserts.

Toby's food preferences are listed below. The player is advised to use these preferences only when Toby does not tell the player what to order. If Toby tells the player a list of dishes to order or gives a hint, it is advised to follow Toby's wishes instead. The full restaurant menu can be found at The Round Table page.

• Likes Juice and Ice Cream
• Dislikes Seafood

Relic Trade

Toby occasionally uses the Relic Pieces Exchange board at the Museum to trade for relic pieces. Toby likes to look at particular completed relics, so after the player has donated such relics to the Museum or displayed them in their yard, Toby may come visit the Museum or the player's yard to view these relics. Such visits will earn the player relationship points each time, with the amount dependent upon the relic.
