Marriage Candidate

Juniper: Gifts, Heart Events & Romance

The bathhouse sorceress treats you like a test subject — until the experiments turn out to be about you. Her loved gifts, every heart event, and the road to marriage.

Juniper, the bathhouse sorceress of Fields of Mistria

Juniper

Sorceress & Bathhouse Owner · Birthday: Fall 26 · Marriage Candidate

A mysterious witch drawn to Mistria by the strange magic that surfaced after the earthquake, Juniper runs the Bathhouse with her familiar Dozy — largely as a front for testing potions on unsuspecting villagers. You'll usually find her there.

First impression: theatrical, signature "OH HO HO HO!", treats you like a lab rat. Also, famously, afraid of ghosts.

Juniper's Loved Gifts

Her tastes run magical, arcane and indulgent — straight from the wiki's gift table (also in our gift guide):

  • Ancient Royal Scepter and Black Tablet (Archaeology artifacts)
  • Crystal Rose (Deep Earth) and Hardened Essence
  • Void Newt
  • Fish Tacos, Golden Cookies, Moon Fruit Cake, Mushroom Brew, Pizza, Spell Fruit Parfait (cooking)

💡 Birthday Math

A Loved gift on Fall 26 is worth +40 friendship points — double the usual. Pizza is the budget pick: she loves it, and she'll even send you one on your birthday once you hit 4 hearts.

All Four Heart Events

Verified from the wiki's event transcripts — the first comes from the Request Board, the rest arrive as letters:

HeartsEventWhat Happens
2Becoming Juniper's Guinea PigHer Request Board ad promises free health tonics; you arrive as Olric sprouts bunny ears. You cut a deal: she leaves the townsfolk alone — if you become her test subject.
4Horsing AroundHer letter summons you for a "dragon power" potion… which turns you into a horse. From this level she mails you a Pizza every birthday.
6Working Like a DogA body-swap errand day: disguised as Juniper, you deliver her tonics to Celine and Elsie — and hear how much the town actually appreciates her.
8Potions and ErrandsSee below — the confession event.

The 8-Heart Event: "Potions and Errands"

Her final heart event has a fetch requirement: the letter asks you to bring a Breath of Flame, a flower found deep in the mines' Lava Caves. Deliver it at the Bathhouse and she tests a two-person bath infusion on you — then drops the act: it was never about potions and errands. You are what she's been studying, ever since her clairvoyance pulled her to Mistria. The scene ends with the standard choice between the Best Friends and romantic routes.

Marriage, the Summit & Little Rune

At 10 hearts (while dating), use the Engagement Ring on her to trigger her proposal cutscene on The Summit, where she admits Mistria stopped being "just another backwater village" the day she let people in. Say yes and you get the full "OH HO HO HO!" — she's thrilled.

After marriage, the child system works as usual (see the romance guide), with two Juniper-specific details, both wiki-verified: her daughter is named Rune, and if Juniper carries the baby, a unique heart quest — "A Craving" — pops up during the pregnancy.

Want to compare her against the other eleven candidates first? The characters page has the full roster, and her fellow arcane option Seridia is one page over.

Outfits

Juniper has distinct seasonal outfits (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter), a Beach outfit, and a unique Bathhouse Date outfit — the wiki catalogs all six. Her exact daily schedule isn't documented on the wiki yet; the reliable place to find her is the Bathhouse she owns.
