Lulukoko Background Characters (Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns)

About
These characters are commonly referred to as "faceless characters", as they exist but have no character portraits when spoken to. The "faceless" have distinct models which are shared between each of them. However, each of them have unique dialogue and even stories which connect them to other "faceless" and main characters. The list below is all of Lulukoko's background characters.

Huemac
Huemac is a boatman who transports people to and from different islands for a living. His lines are references to the Amazon jungle and places within it. In the Japanese version, Huemac is referred to as Amazo (アマゾ). Lines
 * Boats are fascinating, don't you think?
 * Someday you should visit my hometown!
 * *yawn* Maybe I should rest for a bit.
 * I spend so much of my time on a boat that it kind of seems weird to be on land.
 * I'm just taking a little break. I should probably take it easy for a while.
 * I'm a boatman. I help transport people between islands and the mainland. It's an important job.
 * The best way to get to my hometown is by boat. It's a big place, full of lush plants. I think you'd like it.
 * My father spent a long time building a man-made lake next to our house. It's pretty amazing when you think about it!
 * It rains a lot in my hometown. When it's really pouring, the boats can't go out, and I can't do my job.

Andes
Andes visits Lulukoko each week for shopping. She LOVES potatoes. Potatoes are incredibly important, you know? Her lines (and name) are a reference to the Andes mountains and surrounding areas. In the Japanese version, Andes is spelled アンデス. Lines The line above is an added Lord of the Rings reference.
 * Potato, potato, potato! I love potatoes!
 * What's your favorite potato dish?
 * I could really go for potato salad right now.
 * Potatoes are the greatest! You can boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew...! Though when I ate one raw, I got sick...
 * Why, oh, why, does this shop not offer potatoes? Every time I come here, I preach the good word of the potato and ask them to cook some for me, but to no avail...
 * The food here is delicious! But...why don't they serve anything made with potatoes? With cooking skills like this, they could make the greatest potato dish ever...! I have no choice! I'm gonna try suggesting that they make potato dishes one more time!
 * My dream is to eat every kind of potato dish the world has to offer! When I think about how many potato dishes there must be that I've still never tasted... Oops. I'm drooling.
 * Huh? What would I do if there were no more potatoes...? What kind of crazy talk is that? Even if civilization was wiped from the world, potatoes will last forever!
 * Did you know that Machu and I are neighbors? Well, the mountains we live on are next to each other, anyway. We're still more than a day apart!

Angie
Angie is from a family of treasure hunters. Like her relatives before her, she came to Lulukoko seeking adventure and is particularly excited about the ruins in town. Her name is a reference to Lara Croft from the 2001 Tomb Raider movie, portrayed by Angelina Jolie. In the Japanese version, Angie is spelled アンジー. Lines
 * Today's the day I'll find hidden treasure!
 * I am so close to solving this mystery.
 * Mystery! Treasure! Aren't you excited?!
 * If you need information, the best sources are inns and places to eat. That seems to be true everywhere in the world.
 * I don't stay in this town often. I own a villa nearby, so I only stay here when it's too late to go home.
 * That's right, I'm a treasure hunter. Raiding tombs and finding lost treasures is my specialty.
 * Exploring ruins takes a lot of stamina. That's why training and exercise are extremely important.
 * I come from a long line of treasure hunters, but my father might be the greatest of all. He's my hero, really.
 * We're not nobles or anything, but my family owns quite a large mansion. It has a garden, a pool, and even butlers.

Mazatl
Mazatl is a man with more money than he needs. He recently received a revelation from the Spirits, telling him to construct a floating island. His lines and name refer to Mazatlán, Mexico. Mazatlán is a region that was inhabited by the Aztecs, and the people used floating islands to cultivate crops. In the Japanese version, Mazatl is referred to as Azteca (アステカ). Lines
 * Could an island ever float in the air? Hmmm...
 * A floating island... Got any ideas?
 * If I got it floating, how would I steer...?
 * I can buy almost anything, but I still can't think of a way to create a man-made floating island.
 * Sure, I'm rich, but I'd never buy up all the supplies and hoard them for myself. Who would do such a thing?
 * When I'm done here, I'll be off to buy some cacao. It's delicious.
 * In my dreams, I received a message. "Build an island that floats," a voice said. But...how do you build an island??
 * There's currently no way to make an island float. As a test, I tried floating in the ocean myself, but...I'm like a rock in the water. Instead of floating in the ocean, I nearly floated into the heavens, ha ha!
 * I'm constantly thinking about this task given to me by the spirits, but I'm getting nowhere. Maybe it's simply a lesson to teach me that there are things that even money can't buy.

Chaha
Chaha is an older gentleman who's a regular visitor of the Carasello cafe. He has a slight fixation on the twins... His name is a reference to the Chaha language of Ethiopia. In the Japanese version, Chaha is spelled チャハ. Lines

 * It's no surprise the cafe is so popular!
 * Siluka sure is cute, isn't she?
 * Which twin is prettier? I kinda prefer Iluka.
 * I'm gonna visit the cafe later. It's part of my daily routine.
 * Yeah... Every time I see the twins, I come to the same conclusion. They're so cuuuute! ♥
 * I eat here practically every day. I'm what you'd call a regular!
 * I always look forward to seeing the twins. ♥
 * Who's your favorite: Iluka or Siluka? I've been trying to make up my mind for years!

 * Don't you think my name is perfect for a fruit vendor? It's like I was born to do this job!
 * If I ever start to feel tired at work, I just have to smell the fruit around me and suddenly I feel refreshed.
 * Fruit is sweet and delicious and it makes people happy. You should buy some!

 * When there aren't any customers around, sometimes I like to admire the ruins.

 * (While visiting the Crossroads) Going out with Kalea is so much fun.
 * (While visiting Westown) The flowers in this town are nice, but none of them are as pretty as my Kalea.
 * (While visiting Westown) The hibiscus looks great on Kalea, but the other flowers from this town would look good too! What do you think?
 * (While visiting Tsuyukusa) Ah... If only the baths were mixed...Ha ha! Did I say that out loud?!
 * (While visiting Tsuyukusa) Baths feel great, but it's tough being apart from my girlfriend for so long...

Indy
Indy is a professor of archaeology visiting Lulukoko to survey the nearby ruins. On the side, he seems to be a treasure hunter. His character is, quite clearly, a parody of Indiana Jones. In the Japanese version, Indy is spelled インディ. Lines
 * Hey. What brings you here?
 * Think there's an idol in the ruins...?
 * I'm just here for fortune and glory, kid.
 * Is that a SNAAAAKE?! Phew! It's just a whip.
 * I'm a professor of archaeology. I came to this town because I heard it has some mysterious ruins.
 * You can't go exploring ruins on an empty stomach. A good meal is the first step to any adventure!
 * This town has more than good food. I overheard some useful information too. I'm glad I stopped by.
 * I...hate...snakes. When I was a kid, I found this treasure, but then... Just thinking about it makes my skin crawl.
 * The ruins here were build thousands of years ago. Originally they were used as some sort of temple, apparently.
 * You're asking why a professor like me is going out of his way to investigate ruins first hand? Professors don't just hang around and do research in libraries all day. You won't find any hidden secrets there. If you want to be a good archaeologist, you've gotta get out of the library!

Jolyne
Jolyne is a marine biologist studying the marine ecosystem of Lulukoko. Her name and lines are most likely references to Jolyne Cujoh and the Stone Ocean arc of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure which debuted in 1999. In the Japanese version, Jolyne is spelled ジョリーン. Lines

 * I feel like I've barely begun my research here. There's still so much that I want to investigate!

In the Japanese version, Kumu is spelled クム. Lines
 * Can I "bee" of assistance to you?
 * Yep, I'm a beekeeper by trade.
 * Isn't honey great? It's my specialty!
 * Bees aren't scary once you get to know 'em!
 * When it rains, bees can't fly around to do their work. That means it'll take longer for them to make their honey.
 * Have you done much beekeeping? The kind of honey you get is different depending on what kind of flower you use.

Lini
Lini is a kind lady who gives the player advice about feeding wild animals and keeping the bag space open. Her name is Hawaiian for "softest ray of light". In the Japanese version, Lini is spelled リニ. Lines
 * Hello, hello, hello!
 * Did you know there's a jungle nearby?
 * If you listen, you can hear wild animals...
 * Keep your bag organized. That's my advice.
 * Have you tried offering items to wild animals? They'll appreciate it, really!
 * Remember, if your bag is full, you can't put any more items in it, so be sure to leave some space, okay?

Luana

 * Not to say anything bad about my husband, but Ludus has him beat in the looks department!
 * Ludus sure is easy on the eyes. My husband was like that too, back in the day.
 * I frequently stop by here just to watch Ludus. The truth is he looks a lot like my husband when he was younger.
 * Believe it or not, my husband looked a lot like Ludus when he was younger. All the girls were crazy about him! I know. It's hard to imagine now, huh?

Machu
Machu is a shy, but nice guy to talk to if you get a chance to do so! He tries to get some shopping done with what little money he has, but he primarily comes to Lulukoko to be around people. Machu gets a bit lonely back in his hometown. His name is a reference to Machu Picchu and things relating to the surrounding area. In the Japanese version, Machu is spelled マチュ. Lines

 * H-Hi. Do you have time to talk?
 * It's a pretty busy day, isn't it?
 * Are you doing well? G-Glad to hear it!
 * I have an alpaca at home to keep me company. He's kind of old though, so I'm a little worried about his health.
 * I can't do much shopping since I don't have a lot of money, but...Going to the store gives me a chance to talk with people. Making new friends is better than being able to buy stuff!
 * I live at the top of a nearby mountain, but there aren't any other people there. It can get a bit lonely. That's one of the reasons I come to town. A grown man like me getting lonely... It's embarrassing to admit.
 * I have my own farm up on the mountain, and I also like observing shadows. It's kind of like my hobby. It might sound weird, but I like seeing how the shadows' positions change at different times and season.
 * The view from the mountain I live on is beautiful. You should stop by if you ever get a chance! Although...my house is about 2,000 meters up...It's a bit of a hike...
 * When I was little, I got some really bad burns. Ever since then, I've been afraid of fire...But I can't just be frightened for the rest of my life...! So, recently, I've been doing these special training exercises to get used to fire. Now I'd say I'm just scared instead of completely terrified, so that's an improvement, right?

Marama
Marama is a resident of Lulukoko who does more advertising for Caolila's store than Caolila herself. She loves fish, but does admit there's more to food than pescatarian dishes. Her name is Polynesian for "moon". The moon is another sky object Polynesian peoples use to navigate the sea for fishing expeditions. In the Japanese version, Marama is referred to as Magra (マグラ). Lines
 * Aloha! Good to see you!
 * Hey there! Having a good day?
 * Fish are so cute! And tasty...
 * If you want fish, you're in the right town!
 * The secret to long life is eating lots of fresh fish! And that's easy to do in this town.
 * The fish here are really tasty. What kind should I buy today?
 * There are so many delicious-looking fish here! I'm not sure which one to get!
 * I can't wait to cook up these fish. Swim into my belly, little fellas!
 * There's more to this place than just fish. Almost everything's delicious here! Sometimes I buy way too much...
 * I wanted to buy some fruit to take home with me, but my bag's already too heavy. I'll come back later.

Malana
Malana works part-time at Lala Salama, Lulukoko's inn. He's indebted to Tototara for the kind treatment he received when he stayed at the inn while he was younger.

 * There's never a dull moment around here.

 * Hello. How are you doing?
 * Ahh! I love relaxing at the cafe.
 * Potatoes are a local specialty, you know.
 * Maaaan, my legs are sore. Time to rest up.
 * I like the air up in the mountains, but the sea breeze feels good too.
 * My friends at home always ask me to buy things for them when I come here. I'm going to have quite a lot to haul back!
 * My village is on the other side of the mountains. Every once in a while I visit this town so I can stock up on supplies.
 * Whew... I have to hike over a mountain to get here and then again to go back. It's not an easy journey.
 * I hate to admit it, but traveling over a mountain to get here is rather exhausting. I should rest a bit.
 * This view of the ocean is nice. We don't see things like this out in the mountains.

Maya
Maya is an astronomer studying the position of the stars from Lulukoko. His name and lines are references to the Mayan civilization and culture. In the Japanese version, Maya is spelled マヤ. Lines
 * Hello! Fancy meeting you here!
 * The markings on old ruins are so intriguing.
 * Have you ever tried drawing hieroglyphs?
 * I love science. Especially astronomy.
 * I'm an astronomer. Right now I'm studying the celestial calendar to learn the positions of constellations.
 * Numerical sequences are fascinating, wouldn't you agree? The day just flies by when I'm thinking about them!
 * I love sequences and patterns so much that I could just eat them up. In fact, I use a calendar as a placemat.
 * Is there someplace in this town where I can buy corn? I'd eat it for practically every meal if I could...
 * Here, take my business card... Huh? You like the drawings? Actually, they're characters called hieroglyphs. Hieroglyphs are pictographic symbols that are used by some cultures in place of words. They're quite fascinating!
 * Let's say you hate 1 but love 2. 1 x 1 equals 1, which means you still hate it. But 1 x 2 equals 2, so you'd love it. Then 2 x 2 equals 4, which is double what you love. Thus, if you put two things you love together, your love will multiply. Since I love hieroglyphs, I used them to write a love letter. But the woman I sent it to turned me down entirely. Sadly, if you love a person whose feelings for you are zero, you'll learn the harsh reality that 2 x 0 is still 0. As a lover of numbers and sequences, it was an unequivocal failure.

Mele
Mele is a native of Lulukoko. She enjoys fishing, much like the other residents of the town. She'll provide the player some simple tips on fishing and a little bit of farming! Mele is a Hawaiian word for "chant". In the Japanese version, Mele is spelled メレ. Lines

 * When you go fishing, be sure to bring a snack!
 * Gardening is fun! It's just my hobby though.

Nadim
Nadim is a fisherman and long-time work partner of Zahau. He travels between the three towns on fishing business, but gets the biggest hauls from Lulukoko. Nadim is a name of Arabic origin, meaning "friend" and "confidant". In the Japanese version, Nadim is spelled ナディム. Lines

 * I'm headed out for some fishing. You can watch if you want, but don't try muscling in on my territory, yeah?
 * The waters off this town are just packed with fish.
 * Zahau and I go back years. He's a heckuva fisherman.

Naru
Naru is an athletic swimmer that's obsessed with the ocean. She loves the seafood dishes served in Lulukoko. Naru's name is an alternative spelling of Nauru, an island country in Micronesia. In the Japanese version, Naru is spelled ナル. Lines

 * Hi. You must like art, right?
 * What should I paint? Maybe a landscape...?
 * Do you have any info about cheap properties?
 * Could I draw a picture of your farm someday?
 * When you look at a town from up above, it looks more like art than a community, don't you think? One day I'd like to draw a picture like that: a massive illustration that covers the world!
 * I make it a point to use only the finest ingredients when I cook. I mean, you can draw using a cheap pen and paper, but......drawing with quality materials is the best way to bring out your abilities, right? I think cooking is the same. Still, whether it's cooking or drawing, at the end of the day, you need talent to create a masterpiece.
 * Cooking is art! Of course, it has to be delicious too...But what really matters is how you present your food on the canvas called a plate.
 * In order to create my massive picture, I'll need some land to draw it on. That settles it! I'm going to buy some land!
 * Land is really expensive... The money I earn from my art isn't enough, so I'm thinking of taking a part-time job...
 * At the rate I'm going, I'll probably die of old age before I have enough money to buy any land...I wonder if it'd be easier to just travel until I find some land nobody knows about and create my masterpiece there...

Olmeca
Olmeca is a sculptor and avid cat-lover. Most of his clientele are referrals from Ludus. Olmeca's name is a reference to the Olmec civilization and artistic culture. The Olmecs were known for their giant stone head sculptures. In the Japanese version, Olmeca is spelled オルメカ. Lines
 * Don't mind me. I'm not staring, I swear.
 * Yes, your head is exquisitely shaped.
 * Are you in the market for any sculptures?
 * Hmm, you'd make a good model, yes indeed...
 * Oh, sorry. I tend to stare at the shape of people's heads. It's, um, a sculptor thing. No offense intended!
 * Yep, I'm a sculptor. The owner of this shop often introduces me to new clients.
 * I'd heard some new work had come in, but it wasn't at all related to sculpting. I was asked to look for a cat! I mean, I practically worship cats, but come on... I want to sculpt! Now I feel like I've been used...
 * I sculpt all kinds of things, but mostly I sculpt heads and busts. Right now I'm working on a head bigger than a house!
 * A client asked me to make a sculpture of his head. But when he saw it, he said the eyes didn't look determined enough! Now I'm making some adjustments to the eyes. But, honestly, his eyes are really droopy...
 * When I showed my client the sculpture's new eyes, he complained again! "I'm way more handsome than this!" he said. I'd had enough. I took my mallet and smashed the sculpture's face in! I was about to apologize, but he said..."I'm sorry. You're right. It does look like me." Weird, huh? But as long as he's happy with it, I guess I shouldn't worry.
