## Personal information

### Season

Any

**Riah** is one of main NPCs that can live in the village and will always spawn at the beginning of the game. She is a dark-skinned Caith with dark pink hair that is almost always seen holding her trademark Fishing Rod. She often makes references to being a Caith, which also shows a lot in her way of speaking (generally ending sentences with "mya").

After the Fishing Spot is built, Riah will visit it daily to go fishing and swimming.

## Centers of interest

She loves talking about fishing and instructing you how to do so.

### Locations

She is generally found wandering the village before the fishing spot is built, or at/near the spot once it is operational.

One exception: she will be at the Tavern for the duration of the Pumpking Feast, mentioning she came across a dopplegänger of her.

## Quests

###  Daily quests

Riah may occasionally ask the player to find a lost item or ask for one of her favorite gifts. In return, she will reward the player with a miscellaneous item, such as a Hockey Ball, Fireworks Launcher, or Lucky Box. The player can find out about daily quests by asking Rowan about daily rumors.

### Personal quests

Riah will likely offer you one of the very first building quests by asking you to build a fishing spot. This is also the starting point of her questline, which involves a lot of fishing.

#### *Let Them Eat Fish*

Riah wants a Fishing Spot to be built so that she can go fishing.

After the Fishing Spot is built and the quest is finished, Riah will visit the Fishing Spot daily and fish or swim in it.

####  *Hooked*

Riah needs help getting back her lucky hook that she lost while fishing in the ocean.

####  *Three Drenched Bottles*

Riah will explain that she has a number of sisters and that she communicates with them through messages-in-a-bottle, though in reality, she is not that skilled at fishing. She will send you to catch three messages: one in a pond, another the ocean, and the other in the abandoned mine's semi-hidden cave.

#### *An Ancient Evil?*

A very strange mail arrives, from ???, titled ???, and that only says "Ice cream... Myah... \*rest unintelligible\*". Riah will explain that these days, fishing is quite intimidating in the forest, as she could hear the grumbling and moaning of a beast. This will lead you to meet Cirahna and initiate another quest to get her back to her feet. During this time, Maximilian will even mention that he is considering the evacuation of the village due to the presence of the aforementioned beast.

####  *Lost*

One of Riah's sisters had come with her to the island of Staxel, but Riah hasn't had news from her in recent times and is concerned. She sends the player to ask Cirahna for help.

#### *The Call of M'yah*

Riah explains that she already had an idea about the catalyst but wanted to try and find it herself. It is a brooch that she threw away after a quarrel with her sister, and was swallowed by an enormous fish called a M'yah, a magical and very tricky fish.

This ends her questline, bringing her to maximum friendship and netting you her bobblehead.

## Trivia

* There are several look-alikes of Riah that only appear during the Pumpking Feast: Riah?, Riah?!?, and Riah!. Riah herself can be found in the Tavern during the festival, whereas each of the doppelgängers will be found in different areas of town. Each doppelgänger speaks like Riah and has many of her trademark traits, though all of them deny being Riah.
