Wondering who that three-legged and three-armed woman in the white shirt is in Sons of the Forest? She’s Virginia Puffton, student and daughter of the Puffcorp CEO. Here’s how to become friendly with Virginia and have her become your companion in Sons of the Forest.
How to Befriend Virginia in Sons of the Forest
To become friends with Virginia in Sons of the Forest, you just need to be nice to her and avoid scaring her off. You can do this by approaching her slowly without anything in your hands whenever she comes around. Over time, she will become less and less scared, and eventually, she will allow you to approach her and give her items (and weapons).
Virginia tends to come around you more when you build a base and set up a campfire. If you approach her with anything in your hand, especially a weapon, she will immediately run away — a natural reaction. However, you gain slowly earn her trust by letting her study you and being friendly toward her.
It’s nice to have another companion in this “cannibal-infested hellscape.” She’ll mostly do her own thing, but she will bring you things occasionally and help defend if you give her a weapon.
If you’re playing with friends, you might have to convince them not to be total savages and kill her on sight. Once you kill Virginia, there’s no reviving or respawning her, to my knowledge.
Considering Virginia has three arms, giving her a few weapons is not a bad idea. She also reportedly brings players herbs and berries, so that’s always useful. She will be slow to help in the battle against the mutated, but she will become acclimated and grow to be a valuable companion over time.
Now you know how to befriend Virginia in Sons of the Forest, so remember to be nice, and she might save your life. Check out our Sons of the Forest section for more guides and walkthroughs.
