Shane
“ | “I'm renting my room from Marnie at a really good price. It's small but I can't complain. If I could reset my life maybe I'd start a chicken farm. Only free-range eggs of course.” |
— Shane |
Shane is a villager who lives in Pelican Town and is often rude and unhappy. If the player chooses to befriend him, however, his attitude toward them will start to change. He works at JojaMart most days between 9 AM and 5 PM, and after work he frequently spends his evenings in the saloon. He doesn't work on the weekend, and is frequently around the ranch.
In the Social Status menu, Shane's outfit will change to a Joja Corporation uniform when he is at his job at Joja Mart.
The ability to marry Shane was added in version 1.1. In that update he received updates to his schedule, dialogue, portraits, and heart events as well. If the player choses to marry Shane he'll move to the farm and setup a small chicken hut behind the Farmhouse for his chicken Charlie. He'll frequently go outside and hold Charlie near his hut.
Schedule
During Spring, Alex exits his home at 8AM unless it is raining. He stands by the tree to the right of his house but moves towards the left of the fenced in area in the afternoon. On Summer days he can be found on the beach in the morning and running the ice cream stand left of the museum in the afternoon.
