In *Fields of Mistria*, building your farm is just part of the adventure. Cultivating deep friendships with the locals can add a rich layer to your gameplay, and Juniper stands out as a particularly engaging character. If you're aiming to deepen your bond with her, perhaps even romantically, understanding how to give her the perfect gifts is crucial. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to win Juniper's heart through thoughtful gifting.
How to Romance a Character in Fields of Mistria
While you can forge friendships with nearly everyone in *Fields of Mistria*, romance is a more exclusive endeavor, reserved for a select group of NPCs. With the v0.13.0 update, you now have the opportunity to pursue romance with one of 11 different characters, including the intriguing Caldarus.
Each romanceable NPC has a heart meter that fills based on your interactions with them. To successfully romance a character, you need to engage with them regularly and be mindful of their preferences.
Start by **talking to them daily**—it's easy to weave this into your daily routines around town. A daily chat can significantly boost your relationship. Additionally, don't miss out on completing any requests they post on the town board; these are excellent opportunities to increase their heart gauge.
You can also **give them a gift once per day**. Opt for items they particularly enjoy or love, which vary from one character to another. You can gather or craft these items. On their birthday, make sure to present them with something they love, as this will significantly enhance their heart gauge.
Keep in mind that, currently, NPC heart gauges can only reach up to **six hearts**. Reaching this level triggers a cutscene hinting at a budding romance, though it's not a full-fledged relationship yet.
According to the game's roadmap, future updates will introduce 8 and 10-heart events, along with options for marriage and children, ensuring your romantic journey in Mistria has plenty of room to grow.
All Gifts For Juniper in Fields of Mistria
Juniper is one of the romanceable characters in *Fields of Mistria*. When she's not on the hunt for magical ingredients, you'll find her managing the bathhouse in the northeastern part of town.
To romance Juniper, prioritize visiting her, fulfilling her town board requests, and bringing her daily gifts. Juniper appreciates a range of gifts, categorized as those she "likes" and "loves." Her birthday falls on the **26th day of Fall**, making it a prime opportunity to boost her heart gauge with a gift she loves.
Avoid gifting Juniper items she dislikes, which include universal dislikes and **Sod**.
You can monitor the status of her heart gauge anytime through the heart icon tab in your journal.
