Visiting Tales adds a cast of characters that would visit Pelican Town. The characters will not visit the valley right away. Instead they will start visiting as the player progresses in the game. There is spacing between arrivals of the characters to avoid event piles.
At release (1.0.0), there are four characters. Among them, two characters requiring player reaching certain milestones and the other two requires player seeing certain heart events of other character in the mod.
| Characters | Unlock Condition |
|---|---|
| Karl | Reached level 10 in fishing skill |
| Diane | Donated 45 items to museum collection |
| Paolo | Seen Diane's 6 heart event |
| Riri | Seen Paolo's 10 heart event |
Karl is an office worker from Zuzu City. He comes to Pelican Town for some fishing, a hobby and a way to escape the bustling city life. He's a down-to-earth, hardworking man who is just trying to provide for his family. You can often spot him casting his line in the valley on Fridays and Saturdays.

Diane is a history enthusiast who came to Pelican Town after intrigued by the town's growing museum collection. A lady of class and of heart. Diane spends most of her time at the museum but also enjoys exploring the valley.

Paolo starts accompanying Diane after she caught herself needing some medical assistance. He takes the duty very seriously. Where there is Diane, there is Paolo. One would hope he would be able to appreciate Pelican Town the more time he spend on it.

Riri is Paolo's daughter. Paolo visits the valley with Riri after he felt more at home in Pelican Town and want to share what the valley has to offer with his daughter.

This mod should be compatible with most other content pack mods.
Potential issues are:
- Weird standing spots, either with other NPCs or with objects in map. It can happen in daily schedule and in festival.
- Event not playing properly due to changing map.
- Lore differences. The characters may say something that could be not in line with other mods.
Patches made for other mods:
- Character schedules and heart event patches when East Scarp and Stardew Valley Expanded is installed
- Conversation topic dialogues for some East Scarp and Stardew Valley Expanded characters (meaning the modded character would take note of occurrences introduced by this mod). These are mostly characters that I've encountered when playing the game. Feel free to post your suggestion for other modded characters.
- Is it safe to add Visiting Tales mid-save?
It is! The characters in this mod are meant to be experienced as further addition to the ever-changing Pelican Town. - How do I trigger this heart event?
If you want the info readily available in-game you can use Event Lookup. Otherwise you can check the character page on Github documentation. - What's this character loved/liked/hated gift?
