Sheriff Inu

## Background

Sheriff Inu is the gruff sheriff in Yukiyama Village. He welcomes Tsuki when he first arrives in Yukiyama. He and Pakku used to be friends.

## Appearance

Sheriff Inu is a Great Dane dog with brown fur. He wears a straw cloak over a blue gray uniform and straw hat hiding his eyes.

He usually patrols back and forth in front of the restaurant in village central (between the two left-most lightposts). His shift is from 8 AM to 8 PM, and his position and patrolling correlates with where he is in walking along the Frozen Lake.

Sometimes when Tsuki is ice-fishing, he might appear. He will walk in a slow pace toward the frozen lake. If he reaches the 'Do not fish' sign, he will yell at Tsuki and charge a fine of 50  Carrots. Leave the ice fishing spot before that happens or you will lose carrots! Alternatively, the player can distract the sheriff by triggering the random conversation to run to the onsen, fish after Inu's shift, or decline to pay the fine, log out of the game, and return. After becoming best friends, he will join Tsuki in the early morning to fish.

When talking to Sheriff Inu, he may tell Tsuki he is hungry, and the game gives an option to give Sheriff Inu noodles. If you have noodles, he will say thank you. If you do not, the conversation ends.
