How to befriend the Three Legged Girl (Virginia) in Sons of the Forest?

A mysterious encounter with a mysterious creature in Sons Of The Forest

From the very first moments of playing Sons of the Forest, you can meet an amazing creature – a strange girl with three legs and three arms. Upon discovering your character, she will immediately run away. In this guide, we will reveal the secret of this girl and show you how to make her your companion.

Mystery of the Three-Legged Girl in Sons of the Forest

The same three-legged girl that you will encounter many times during the passage of the game, is named Virginia Puffton (Virginia Puffton). There is little detailed information about her, however, as you progress through the story, you will find her VIP access card. Subsequently, it turns out that Virginia is the daughter of a missing millionaire who disappeared on this island. Probably, after some incident, the girl underwent a mutation.

No danger from the Three Legged Girl

Although the girl looks strange, she is not really dangerous. On the contrary, at the beginning of the game, she will try to avoid you. Players can try to kill her, but it doesn’t make sense. After death, Virginia does not leave any loot behind her, and her body cannot even be butchered, unlike the bodies of local natives.

How to tame Virginia and make her a companion?

To gain Virginia’s trust and make her your ally, follow the guidelines below. Remember that patience and a friendly demeanor are key factors in this process.

Be friendly and patient

1. Do not attack Virginia so that she will visit your camp more often.
2. Over time, closer to winter, she will lose her fear and will approach you.
3. When Virginia appears, put away your weapon (G key) to let her know that you are not going to hurt her.

Gradual convergence with Virginia

1. 1. Give Virginia time to get used to your presence until she is no longer afraid of you in 5-10 days.
   2. When she gets close enough, the interaction option will be available to you.
   3. Take this opportunity to hand over the weapon to the girl.

Ensuring security and control

1. Attach one of the three GPS beacons found throughout the story to Virginia to track her movements on the map.
2. Assign a beacon to a marker via inventory to make tracking easier.
3. Give Virginia any pistol (9×18) or shotgun. It is not necessary to provide ammunition, as she will find ammunition herself.

Interaction with Virginia in the game

Note that you will not be able to give her orders. However, Virginia will often be near your camp and defend it from enemies with the transferred weapons.

Maintaining Health and Caring for Virginia

In this section, we’ll show you how to take care of Virginia in Sons of the Forest so that she remains your helpful and loyal companion.

Feeding and Treating Virginia

It is important to know that Virginia, like Calvin, does not need food. However, if she gets injured by natives or monsters and passes out, you can help her. To do this, simply approach Virginia and use the interaction button. In the same way, healing works for your first companion.

Can Virginia Die

Both of your companions in the game can only die if you kill them yourself. In most cases, cannibals and monsters don’t kill these characters after being knocked to the ground. If this happens before your eyes, try to help Virginia quickly. If you go far enough, you will notice that after a while it will rise on its own and return to you.

Benefits of partnering with Virginia

Virginia can be useful in many ways. Sometimes she collects rare herbs and foods for you, especially aloe vera, a useful plant for creating healing mixtures. She can also gradually harvest fish or small animals such as squirrels.

However, Virginia’s primary value lies in defense. After completing half of the storyline, the cannibals become stronger and attack your camp. After completing the story, you encounter monsters that attack every few days.

Virginia as Camp Protector

If you equip Virginia with a pistol and a shotgun, she will be a great defender of your camp. She finds ammo for her weapons on her own.

Changing Virginia’s appearance and building confidence

In this section, we’ll look at issues related to changing Virginia’s appearance, the possibility of a romantic relationship, and building trust between you and your companion in Sons of the Forest.

How to Update Your Virginia Wardrobe

As you explore the island, you’ll find different outfits for both Kelvin and Virginia. At the moment, only one set of equipment is known, located in an underground bunker. To transfer Virginia’s clothes, use the interaction menu, similar to transferring weapons.

Romantic relationship with Virginia

At the moment, the game does not provide an opportunity to start a romance with Virginia. However, it is worth remembering that Sons of the Forest is in early access, and the developers may add such a feature in the future. This is hinted at by the “heart” marker on the GPS radar.

Achieving maximum trust and possible rewards

Over time, Virginia’s trust in the player will grow. To achieve the maximum level of trust, you need to avoid aggression and intimidating actions towards the girl. It is also necessary to give her at least one weapon and install a GPS tracker. After about 20 days of playing, you will receive the achievement “Chivalry is not dead”.
