I wrote a bit of a backstory behind my Farmer and a bit more on him and Abigail. He flies a cropduster plane and likes to take Abigail with him. I mean, I just love how it all turned out so I made a couple pics and gifs. <3





Also would like to have some insight on how to make a gif of the two flying in the backdrop used for the game's main menu. I have the gif already, just want to make it fly across the screen. Thank you! :D <3

Oh yes, yes, gladly. I can share it here! :d But thanks for the kind feedback. I am so proud to be sharing this here. <3

Robbie McSopwith was born into the late McSopwith family, an agricultural ancestry who have mastered the art of agricultural aviation within the Zuzu Republic for generations. Each and every farmer is destined to be taught by their father; Who'd run and tutor a private and personal flying training course for their eldest child who is responsible almost everything there is to know about their craft, whilst also building their own Cropduster to use as their own steed when the torch is finally passed onto them.

Robbie is the latest generation but born as the only child under Harold and Mordine McSopwith yet begins his training under his father. However, as Joja rose in power and influence throughout the republic, they've shown great interest in buying the family estate and had been pestering them to sell up for ever growing sizes of cash. Despite being promised their mortages being paid, the farm workers' paid in early retirement, Harold remained defiant against them; Knowing that Joja cannot use legal proceedings to take over their land. Robbie himself was unaware of the ever growing pressure from the corporation and still continues his training with his father.

Only things took a drastic turn when, before Robbie's 18th Birthday, Harold's aircraft suffers a catastrophic failure and crashes into a field. Despite being rushed to hospital, Harold died from his injuries, leaving his son distraught and in severe grief that he'd simply refuse to continue his training. Without Harold's experience as a ex-financial advisor in Joja, the McSopwiths' debts began to climb and business became tougher as JojaMarts began outperforming agricultural farms in business. As a result, Mordine was forced to finally sell the land to Joja and move into the city where she became depressed and an alcoholic.

Robbie was brought under the care of Aunt Peggy and had a brief stint in Joja's offices; Only to discover later that his beloved family farm had been transformed into another link in Joja's Empire as a hideous JojaCola Factory. He quits his job in anger but would discreetly explore what remained of the farm one last time. He finds and enters his family's farmhouse, only to discover a worn and empty dresser. A few days before his passing, in hospital, Harold gave Robbie a key to its locked drawer and a mission for him to build his plane in the event that his father was discharged. With the key in hand, Robbie finds a worn leather helmet, goggles and a note from his great Grandfather Harold Sr; Bestowing to the young boy that he was to inherit a small paradise in a distant land known as 'Stardew Valley' upon Robbie's passing as a licensed pilot.

Enthrilled with the discovery, Robbie would enroll in a flight school at the local airport and manages to pass the exams; Officially granting him his pilot's license. He shares the news with his Aunt and begins packing his things in earnest, buying a one way ticket to Stardew Valley. His hopes and goal was clear:

To carry the flame, he would continue the legacy of his family, to take flight once more and bring back the ancient art of cropdusting; and find out what caused the crash that had took his beloved father's life.
