Townsfolk

Can You Romance Olric?

Short answer: no — Olric is townsfolk, not a marriage candidate. Long answer: he's the most-petitioned bachelor-that-isn't in the whole community. Here's the story.

📌 Quick Answer

No — Olric cannot be romanced or married. He is a "Townsfolk (Not Romanceable)" NPC in v1.0. You can still befriend him, gift him, and see him constantly around town.

Olric, part-timer around Mistria

Olric

Part-timer Around Town · Birthday: Spring 10

Olric is March's friendly younger brother. The two live above the blacksmith shop, having lost their parents when March was young. While March mans the forge, Olric works odd jobs at the forge, the inn, and the general store — which is why you bump into him everywhere.

Gameplay role: early on he sends you on a quest to return a lost miner's pickaxe to Errol at the museum.

The Olric Phenomenon

Spend any time in the community and you'll meet Olric before you even open the game — he's the town's most-wanted unromanceable villager:

  • The petitions: Steam forum threads asking for Olric to become a marriage candidate fill up with "+1" replies, and Destructoid even ran a story about the community's demand.
  • The fan art: Olric portraits, imagined date scenarios, and "what if he were a candidate" edits are among the most common posts on r/FieldsOfMistriaGame.
  • The running joke: "Why can't I romance Olric?" is a community punchline at this point, right up there with wanting more mature romance options in general.

Whether NPC Studio ever promotes him to candidate is anyone's guess — nothing official has been announced. If that changes in a patch, you'll see it in our updates page the same day.

Olric's Loved Gifts

Friendship still counts, and Olric's Loved list is pure blacksmith family — ores and gems, nothing else:

  • Perfect Copper / Iron / Silver / Gold / Mistril Ore
  • Perfect Diamond / Pink Diamond / Emerald / Ruby / Sapphire

All ten come out of the mines, so a mining trip before his Spring 10 birthday covers the +40 birthday bonus. Check who loves everything else with the Gift Finder.

Who You Can Romance Instead

The game ships with 12 marriage candidates — six bachelors and six bachelorettes — plus one hidden dragon. If Olric's grounded, hard-working type is your thing, his brother March is literally one door away. The full roster with loved gifts lives on the characters page, and the romance guide ranks the community favorites.
