Scarlett (スカーレット, Sukaaretto), is a half-elf girl who's an official member of Seed, which has work that sends members to faraway places nowadays. She's an elite team member who wants to be like her father. She's a by-the-books person who is serious to a fault, and she gets annoyed if she has pointless conversations, or if someone suddenly changes the topic of conversation. Although she has a rigid personality, she's currently conflicted about whether it's fine for her to stay as she is right now.

A half-elf, half-human SEED ranger currently on a long-distance assignment in Rigbarth. Her life goal is to be just like her father. Always does things by the book, to the point of being excessive. Absolutely hates hearing a story without an end or changing the subject before finishing a conversation. A bit rigid and stuck in her ways, although she feels conflicted about whether that's for the best.

Trivia

• Scarlett's weapon preference is dual blades.
• In the Rune Factory 5 Destined Person ♡ Diagnosis Quiz, Scarlett was compared to Forte from Rune Factory 4/Special. If you're given her as a destined partner, the result reads: "Your destined partner is Scarlett, a half-elf girl who is a member of SEED's elite squadron. At first you'll be surprised by her by-the-book behavior when an incident occurs, but you'll come to know and respect her seriousness and sense of justice. In turn, she will be attracted by your relaxed and unique atmosphere, and will feel at home with you in her company. A puzzle or mystery novel is a great gift for her! As long as you keep your promises and show your sincerity, she will come to believe that you're the one." The question featuring her chibi art is "Do you post on social networks often?"
• Each Japanese voice actor has provided commentary on their characters and on Rune Factory 5 as a whole. The following is the English translation of Aya Suzaki's commentary:
  (The audio can be accessed in-game by clicking "Voice Actor Commentary" on the main menu.)

  Hello! I'm Aya Suzaki, and I play Scarlett. I just finished recording my lines. As you know, Scarlett is one of the game's many heroines. I'm playing a more mature, relatively formal character for a change. I had to enunciate much more clearly than usual...and I really focused on making sure I did! The staff treated me very nicely throughout the recording process. I had lots and lots of fun. Now, if you asked me to describe Scarlett... I'd say she's one tough cookie. A real "no fun allowed" kind of person. She doesn't really start warming up to you until near the end of the game... So those of you who were expecting someone similar to the other characters I've played may find that surprising. Still, I hope you have fun interacting with her. One thing about her left a big impression on me. And that's how she'll start humming softly to herself sometimes. Depending on the role, figuring out how to handle stuff like that can be tricky, but I enjoy the challenge of working these things out. Since this is Scarlett we're talking about, I decided it wasn't something she does often. So that's how I decided to handle it, and they liked what I did. I felt pretty good about that. So I mentioned how she doesn't start warming up to you until much later... Since that happens in the second half of the game, make sure you play through all the way to the end! Let's see, what else... Scarlett's a very serious person who hates to lose, and she's not the type to crack jokes or anything... And when she does try to tell a joke, it ends up not sounding like a joke at all. It's hilarious. Consider relistening to those lines when you get to them. The materials for her mentioned that she's a half-elf who does things "by the book," which kind of threw me for a loop. That was the first time I'd heard that phrase used to describe a half- elf, as opposed to a human. But I think I managed to pull it off. Let's move on and talk about Rune Factory itself. I was surprised by just how many things you could do in the game. Work on your farm, get married, have kids, and so on. I love life simulation games, actually. I was very happy to learn that in this game you mainly focus on growing crops, cooking food, and all sorts of other everyday activities. Now all I want to do is plant some crops of my own. Fighting monsters also sounds like a lot of fun, of course. But I'm especially looking forward to the parts that feel like an extension of real life. By the way, isn't it awesome that Toshiyuki Toyonaga voiced Ares? He's got the kind of voice that would make you do anything for him! I kept thinking about how great that is while recording my lines. Well, since I have the opportunity to do so, I'll talk about myself for a bit. I've been working really hard at something lately, although I guess it's not terribly amazing in the grand scheme of things. So there's this restaurant I often go to... Wow, this has nothing whatsoever to do with the game. Anyway, there's this restaurant near me, okay? They always ask me what kind of rice I want, what portion size... You know, the usual. It's just one of your typical take-out joints. I'm sure some of you more stay-at-home types feel this way as well... But you don't ever want to become a regular customer at your favorite places, right? Once you have that "I come here all the time" kind of aura, some people just stop wanting to go there anymore. At least, that's how I feel. I don't want anyone working there to start recognizing me or anything! There's a razor-thin line between whether you're perceived as a regular or not, no? Anyway, this place usually doesn't give you a receipt. If you want one, you have to ask. I ask for one every time, so I bet that's why they started to recognize me. They don't give receipts to the other customers, but they give me one every time. I just HATE that! Now all I can think about is that they know who I am. So as a countermeasure, whenever I go there now, I act like it's my first time. And that's what I've been working so hard on lately. That means whenever they ask me, "What kind of rice would you like?" I don't respond right away. I pretend that I'm thinking really hard about it. I act like I don't know how ordering food at this place works. I think it might be too little, too late though. They probably think, "What the hell's her problem?" every time I do it. And there you have it. That was my little "Who the heck cares?" update on what I've been doing lately. So—oh yeah, that's right! There's one other thing I wanted to mention. When I got the piece of paper asking what I wanted to talk about for this...lo and behold, it had a note from the producer. He wrote about why he'd chosen me to play the role of Scarlett. It made me so happy! I'd like to you to hear what he had to say. Okay, here we go: "I wanted someone who could convey both the sweet and stern parts of this character's personality. That's why I asked for you. I'm sure that you can show the players a side to Scarlett they've never seen before." Signed, Hashimoto. Thank you so much, Hashimoto! Thank you! I'm delighted to hear that! They picked me because they wanted someone sweet but stern for once! Finally! Boy, you have no idea how happy that makes me! All my hard work has really paid off. Seriously, I'm so pleased that I was chosen to play a more mature role. Until about two or three years ago, I mostly played younger, very bright and bubbly characters. I'd love it if I could play a wider variety of roles and expand my repertoire. All's well that ends well, as the saying goes, and since everything worked out, I have to say again how grateful I am for this opportunity. On that note, let's finish this with something in Scarlett's voice. Get back here, on the double! Thank you! This has been Aya Suzaki. Bye-bye!
