You have to give her an item stolen from Tanukichi's shop on the same floor, and the item must cost at least 2000. She can only be recruited on floors that have the shop, though you can restart the game to reroll the level if you need to. The item must officially be stolen, as you can't recruit her by giving her a shop item while still in the shop. Tanukichi's wrath can be quite severe if you steal too valuable of items, so it's best to steal only a single item that costs 2000 or slightly more.

There are two basic approaches to stealing items. One is to pick up the item, then use a Grimoire of Collective Move to warp out of the shop with it, effectively making it stolen. Then you find Brownie, give her the item to befriend her, and either run for the stairs or use a Grimoire of Return to go back to town before Tanukichi finds you and attacks. This can recruit her without getting you a [BAD] reputation or injuring Tanukichi, so there aren't any longer term consequences. Having to keep away from Tanukichi makes it tricky, however.

The other approach to stealing items is to defeat Tanukichi first. Get everyone positioned to fight her, then throw damaging items at her. After the third, she'll say that she has to attack you to defend herself, and then you'll be able to attack and injure her. Once you've done that, her shop is yours to loot freely, and without the severe consequences of teleporting out with several stolen items. This will prevent you from accessing her shop for the rest of the dungeon run, or in town for a while thereafter, however.

The other complication is that Tanukichi's shop sometimes doesn't have an item that costs 2000 or more. You can solve this by bringing your own. Bring an item that Tanukichi would charge 2000 money for, lay it on the ground in her shop, and talk to her to sell it to her. She'll immediately put that item for sale, making it possible for you to steal it.

Give her an item stolen from Tanukichi's shop on the same floor, so that it still has a price tag. The item must be worth at least 5000 gold for her to accept it and join you. This is similar to recruiting Naughty, so the analysis there mostly still applies.

Needing the item to be worth at least 5000 gold makes a huge difference, however. That will cause Tanukichi to summon many monsters that are very high level to the floor. You'll have to avoid those monsters, as they'll instantly kill Brownie, and very nearly do so to you. This will also cause crystals to spawn just around the exit tile, so that if anyone is just behind you, you'll get attacked as you try to hack through the crystals.

Various methods of recruiting Brownie reliably typically require bringing several items into the dungeon. Route Great Fairy Place doesn't allow you to bring in items, so it may be easier to wait for future dungeons that relax the restrictions on bringing items. As of this writing, she is also available in Route Illusory Ruins 2, but that is a temporary dungeon and will be removed in the future.

If you want to recruit her in the early access dungeon, then the method outlined on Naughty's page still largely works. Reload the floor until Tanukichi's shop spawns in a room on the perimeter of the dungeon. Dig your tunnel around the edge of the floor so that the only ways to enter the tunnel are Tanukichi's shop and the floor tile. Use the Postpone Staff to warp Brownie to the exit, then sweep through the tunnel to ensure that no monsters are in it.

When you steal the item, Tanukichi will create the white crystals around the exit tile, which will seal the other end of the tunnel. This ensures that no monsters can get into the tunnel as you run away, which leaves you a clear path to escape. When you reach the crystals, break through them, being careful not to also kill Brownie in the process. Once you reach her, talk to her, ask her to join, give her the stolen item when she requests it, and leave the floor as with Naughty.

### Drops

* Mana Piece
* Hard Stone
* Grimoire of Explosions

### Recruitment locations

* Route Great Fairy Place, floors 21-24

It is only possible to recruit Brownie on a floor that also has Tanukichi's shop. The floors where she can spawn are much more likely than most other floors to have Tanukichi also spawn, however.
