Profile[]
Personality[]
Shara is a very warm, bright, unassuming girl whose favorite hobby is gardening. In particular, she enjoys growing flowers, talking to them and caring for them in the same way she would a friend. Generally, she shows kindness towards everyone she meets, including Woolies and other harmless monsters.
Shara is the most sociable person in the entire village: she remembers everyone's birthdays and is always talking about their likes and dislikes. In turn, all of the villagers are equally fond of her.
Appearance[]
Shara has straight, shoulder-length orange hair, large blue eyes, and light skin. She wears a lace veil on her head and a lace choker as well. Her headband is made of flowers that are various shades of pink with strings of beads attached to it. The collar of her dress has feather-like flower petals with one large pink flower on either side. Her dress is pale green with brown shoulder straps and lace short sleeves. She also wears a dark pink bodice with stripes that range from pink to orange with diamond shapes that are also orange. Her skirt is a mint green color with orange leaves decorating the hem and a lace underskirt. Around her waist are belt-like straps with a pink flower buckle. She wears brown sandals that are decorated with pink flowers.
Story[]
Shara is Monica's older sister and Wells' eldest granddaughter. She discovered Micah in his golden wooly form when he was unconscious after he fell out of the sky, outside her house, and carried him up to her room so she could nurse him back to health. However, in the interim, he awakened in his human form and wandered around Sharance with no memory of who he is or why he came to Sharance.
Shara meets Micah again outside the Sharance Tree, in his human form this time, unaware that they're actually the same person. After discovering that he's an amnesiac, she invites him to live in the tree until he recovers his memories. Giving him a waterpot, a hoe, and some flower seeds, she encourages him to use the fields beneath the tree to grow crops with a cheerful expression on her face.
She has low Str, moderate Vit, and high INT.

Relationships[]
Shara occasionally argues with her grandfather, Wells, the mayor of the town, over her habit of taking in wounded monsters. She also reprimands him for spoiling the younger granddaughter and expresses concern for his old age. Both of them share a love for flowers.
Shara and her little sister, Monica, both share a close bond, often going around festivals together. Shara coaxes her into trying things she dislikes by promising to do something more fun together later, but she still makes sure to be stern whenever necessary, as she doesn't want to overindulge her. She tends to show a more maternal side around her.
Later in the game, Shara befriends Kuruna. Upon discovering that they both had similar upbringings, they foster a friendly relationship, and Kuruna begins to stroll around town with her and her sister during festivals. Shara finds Kuruna's shyness and awkwardness cute.
