Quests

• "Meet the Wizard": The morning after examining the golden scroll in the Crafts Room of the Community Center, the Wizard will send you a letter saying he has information for you. Visit the Wizard's Tower and he will give you a potion that allows you to read the language of the Junimos.
• "A Dark Reagent": The Wizard will send you a letter on the 12th of Winter requesting that you bring him a Void Essence. The reward is data-sort-value="1000">1,000g and 1 Friendship heart.
• "Staff of Power": The Wizard will send you a letter on the 5th of Winter, year 2, requesting that you bring him an Iridium Bar. The reward is data-sort-value="5000">5,000g and 1 Friendship heart.
• "Dark Talisman": After completing the Community Center Bundles or the Joja Community Development Form, trigger a cutscene at the Railroad, where the Wizard will request that you find a Dark Talisman. Speak to Krobus in The Sewers, who will remove the force-field blocking the entrance to the Mutant Bug Lair. Obtain the Dark Talisman from a chest in the Mutant Bug Lair, then bring it back to the Railroad area and place it on the artifact blocking the cave. Inside the cave is a teleportation rune which leads to the Witch's Swamp. This unlocks The "Goblin Problem" Quest.
• "Goblin Problem": Once inside the Witch's Swamp, the Witch's Henchman will be blocking the way to the Witch's Hut. He will only allow the player to pass if he is given Void Mayonnaise, which completes the quest Goblin Problem and gives access to the Dark Shrines inside the Witch's Hut. Recover the Magic Ink inside the Witch's Hut, then bring the ink back to the Wizard, who will unlock four Wizard buildings for The Farm.
• The Wizard may request that you slay a certain number of Monsters or bring him a random item at the "Help Wanted" board outside Pierre's General Store. The reward for slaying monsters varies by the number/type of monster, but is always an amount of gold. The reward for an item delivery quest is 3x the item's base value and 150 Friendship points.

Trivia

• Because the door to his house is locked at the start of the game, the Wizard does not count towards the introductions quest.
• Introduction to the Wizard normally occurs at his invitation to see him about the Junimos, a part of the preparation for unlocking the Community Center bundles. When you see him at that time, you must play through the entire cut scene. If you do not, the game does not record that you have met him. Although the bundles are still unlocked, friendship and communications with him will not occur until you go to him another time to record the meeting.
• Despite being unreachable in most festivals, the Wizard has unique dialogue for every festival, some with backstory on the events.
• The Wizard suspects that one of the villagers is his daughter, asking you not to tell anyone. It is heavily implied that this refers to Abigail, through dialogue with Caroline, Pierre, and Abigail herself.
• The Wizard mentions his wife (the witch) and he being together for years until he "made a mistake that drove her away". It's not specified what this "mistake" was, but it was enough to turn her "green" out of anger and envy.
