“	“ I've been learning so much more about human stuff since I came to this Village!”
	— Ariel

Ariel is a character from the Disney film The Little Mermaid (1989). She can be unlocked after finding the Mysterious Paddle on Dazzle Beach, and completing the quest The Lonely Island.

She lives in the water, which can make speaking with her difficult if she is too far from shore. After completing Prince Eric's friendship quest Part of His World, she can to return to land, making speaking to her much easier.

She can be given any role except for fishing, possibly due to her being friends with sea creatures. Also, if she is turned back into her mermaid form after assigning her a role, the player loses the option to hang out with her and can only regain it if she is turned into a human again - she will maintain her role though.

Her home is a large sea castle which must be placed on water. Once unlocked, she will be added to the Dreamlight Valley Characters Collection.

Unlocking

To unlock Ariel players must first start the quest The Mysterious Wreck. This quest begins after picking up a Mysterious Paddle on the Dazzle Beach, near the skull rock. After finding the paddle, the quest will start - prompting to return to Goofy.

After returning the paddle to him he will task the player to collect Hardwood (30), Rope (7), Clay (25), and Iron Ingot (10) to repair the Wrecked Raft on the beach. After collecting the materials speak to Goofy, return to Dazzle Beach, and the raft will be fixed.

Players can embark on the newly repaired raft to begin a new quest, The Lonely Island, which will introduce the player to Ariel. After speaking with her she will ask the player to build her a house, do this and she will move to the Valley.

Daily Discussions

Do you have a question, Ariel?

You're a human, Player. What would you say your favorite human thing is? →   Probably fire. Before I saw it, I was so curious about it. I know it can be helpful and also hurtful. What do you like about it? →  It's warm and cozy. Mmm. That does sound nice. →  It's bright and beautiful. It is! And it's warm too. →  It's useful. Yes! It provides light and heat, and I know humans like to cook their food over it. If I'm on land when it gets cold, I like being near a warm fire. →   Shoes are nice. Oh. When I wore them, they pinched a little. Why do you like shoes so much? →  They protect my feet. Oh, I guess that makes sense. The water doesn't hurt my feet, but I suppose there are things on land that would if I didn't wear shoes. →  They make me taller. Really?! I didn't know shoes could do that. →  Mine look cool. Let me see... Oh, you're right. Your shoes are so neat! →  It's hard to choose just one! I would have trouble choosing, too. But please do try. At least tell me one you like a lot. [reprompt]

Do you have anything on your mind? [Added 1.3]

Oh, Player, I was wondering... have you made friends with any of the turtles around Dazzle Beach? →  It seems to take a lot of patience. Well, they are very shy. But if you wait quietly for them, they'll poke their heads out of their shells... And then you can give them some Seaweed and make a new friend! →  Remind me... The turtles around here are very shy. When they see someone they don't know, they head right back into their shells. You have to wait until they come back out. Then you can give them some Seaweed to eat. And that's how you make a new friend! →  I have no idea. Please help me. Oh, don't worry. It's really easy. You just need to remember a few things. The turtles around here are very shy. When they see someone they don't know, they head right back into their shells. You have to wait until they come back out. Then you can give them some Seaweed to eat. And that's how you make a new friend!

Do you like living here?

I've been learning so much more about human stuff since I came to this Village! Why don't you give me a test?! Tell me the name of a human object, and I'll tell you what it's used for. →  Fork. Oh, that one's easy! It's for combing your hair. And I believe the more common term for "fork" is "dinglehopper." →  Shoes. Oh, shoes. Those are the things humans put on their feet for some reason. I'm not completely sure why. They already have feet for walking; why do they need shoes? Now it's my turn. I'll tell you the name of a human object, and you tell me what it does. Do you know what a snarfblatt is? →  A fish. No, silly! A snarfblatt is a musical instrument. You use it to make music. It's a little tricky to play, though. →  A shark. No, silly! A snarfblatt is a musical instrument. You use it to make music. It's a little tricky to play, though. →  A trumpet. That's right! Wow, you really know your human stuff.

Do you need any help?

Player, I want to get a present for Eric. But I could use your advice. What sorts of things would a human man like? →  Something from under the sea? Do you think so? He IS very curious about my world. Almost as curious as I am about his! Maybe I could find him a beautiful shell. Or sea glass! →  Something from your collection? But my collection is all things from the human world. He already has so much of that stuff. Unless... Maybe he would like something familiar if it's picked out just for him. I'll take a look at the gizmos in my collection and see if any of them are shiny enough. →  Eric likes your singing. That's true. Maybe my present can be singing for him! Oh, thank you, Player! That's just what I'll do.

Have you got a question?

Player, I have a very important question for you. What's your favorite thing to do on land? →  Dance. Oh, we dance underwater too! But it must be so much harder when you have to stay connected to the floor. →  Ski. Oh, Merlin told me about skiing! You put sticks on your feet and throw yourself down a mountain. That sounds so exciting! I'd love to try it someday. →  Fly kites. Oh, I've seen those! They're almost like the sail of a boat, but in the sky. There are so many interesting things to do on land. →  Yeah, it can be pretty cool. Thank you for telling me about it! →  I think the sea is better. giggle* I know a crab who agrees with you. →  I think they're both amazing in their own ways. I guess you're right. There are lots of fantastic things about both of them.

How is your collection going?

Since I can go on land whenever I'd like now, I want to find things to add to my collection. What do you think I should start looking for? →  Stamps? Hmm. Stamps get sticky when they're wet, right? I'll have to make sure I keep them very dry. I'll find a special place in my House for them. →  Hats? Ooh, that would be fun! I've already seen so many different kind of hats; there must be even more. And I could learn their names! I really want to know what a "fascinator" is. →  Thingamabobs? I already have twenty thingamabobs. I'd really like to collect something different.

I've got a question for you!

Hello, Player. Do you have a question for me? →  How many merpeople are there? Oh my gosh, I don't know! Just in Atlantica, there's more than I can count. →  Do you get tired swimming all the time? Well, I do get tired. But I'm not sure if it's because I'm swimming or just because I've been doing a lot. →  What's the biggest fish you've ever seen? Well, I've seen some pretty big whales. But fish... I guess I'd have to say a whale shark, which is actually a fish, not a whale. Isn't that confusing?

Is living here any fun? [Added 1.3]

It's amazing! I love how there's always something new to discover. Every time I go to a different part of the Village, I see something I haven't seen before. A chest. A piece of paper on the ground. A patch of soil that's hiding some secret... →  I know! Every day's an adventure. I wonder what we'll each find today. →  Yeah, but what makes them appear? Well, if I had to guess... I'd say it's your magic. →  What?! I've never noticed! Oh, Player, you have to explore the Valley more! There are so many things to discover and secrets to uncover. It's really fun. You'll see.

• Let's talk about you.

Let's talk about you.

I have an idea, Player! Let's see how much we know about each other. It can be a game! I'll start... I'm the daughter of the king of the ocean. What's my father's name? →  King Triton. That's right! Okay, the next question is a little more difficult... →  Poseidon. No. My father's name is King Triton. Maybe you know the answer to this question: How many sisters do I have? →  The Tuna King. giggle* I'm not a tuna, Player. I'm a mermaid. My father's name is King Triton. Maybe you know the answer to this question: How many sisters do I have? How many sisters do I have? →  You're an only child. No, I have six older sisters: Aquata, Andrina, Arista, Attina, Adella and Alana. But that was a tough one. I promise the next question is easier! →  You have six sisters. Yes! I have six older sisters: Aquata, Andrina, Arista, Attina, Adella and Alana. Wow, you won't have any problem with the next question! →  You have two brothers: Flounder and Sebastian. No, Flounder and Sebastian are my friends. I have six older sisters: Aquata, Andrina, Arista, Attina, Adella and Alana. I promise the next question is easier! I have a collection of gizmos and thingamabobs and all sorts of stuff. Do you know what the things in my collection have in common? →  They are things found on land. [1/3, 2/3] You're right! I think human stuff is very interesting. [3/3] You're right again! I think human stuff is very interesting. →  They're coral. No, there's a lot of coral in the ocean. It would kind of be like collecting sand. I collect human stuff. I think it's very interesting. →  Shark teeth, of course. Oh no! That would be too dangerous. I collect human stuff. I think it's very interesting. [0/3] Well, you've only gotten one answer right so far, but let's see how you do on the next one. [1/3] You only got one answer right so far, but let's see how you do on the next one. [2/3] Okay, two out of three is very good! Let's see if you can answer the next question! [3/3] Okay, let's see if you can answer the next question... What did Ursula want from me when I asked her to give me human legs? →  Your fins. [0/4] Oh, I'm sorry, Player. She did give me legs, but she asked for my voice in return. Now there's only one question left. What's the name of the human I saved from drowning? [1/4, 2/4] Oh, I'm sorry, Player. She did give me legs, but she asked for my voice in return. Are you ready for the next one? What's the name of the human I saved from drowning? [3/4] Oh, I'm sorry, Player. She did give me legs, but she asked for my voice in return. Are you ready for the next one? What's the name of the human I saved from drowning? What's the name of the human I saved from drowning? [asks same question twice] →  Your father's trident. [0/4] I'm sorry. She wanted my voice. Now there's only one question left. What's the name of the human I saved from drowning? [TODO-VERIFY] [1/4, 2/4] - TODO [3/4] I'm sorry. She wanted my voice. Let's try another one... What's the name of the human I saved from drowning? What's the name of the human I saved from drowning? [asks same question twice] →  Your voice! [1/4] You got it! That's one right answer so far. Let's see if you can get this last one... [2/4, 3/4] Oh my gosh, you're right! Now there's only one question left... [4/4] Oh my gosh, you've gotten every answer right! Now let's see if you know this very last one... [Response to previous question] →  Flotsam. No. That's the name of one of Ursula's horrible eels. I saved Prince Eric. →  Eric. Yes! He got hurt saving his dog during a storm. I'm so glad I was there to help. →  Max. No. You're thinking of his dog. I saved Prince Eric. [0/5 correct] Gosh, that wasn't a very big success, was it? I hope we get to know each other better. [1/5 correct] Well, you only knew one thing about me, but I hope we get to know each other better! [2/5 correct] You do know some things about me! I hope you had fun. [3/5, 4/5 correct] Gosh, you really know a lot about me! I'm glad that we're becoming such good friends. [5/5 correct] That's amazing! You know so much about me. That makes me very happy. Let's talk again soon! I can't wait to learn more about you.

Tell me about your hobbies.

I love to sing. And Sebastian says I'm pretty good at it. Do you like to sing? →   Yes. That's fantastic! Tell me, what's your favorite kind of song? →  Love songs. Oh, I like love songs too. I used to think they were just pretty. But ever since I met Eric, I understand them so much better. →  Dance songs. Oh, I love those too! Sebastian is really good at writing dance songs. He can get the whole ocean dancing! →  Rock anthems. Oh, I don't think I've ever heard of those. They must be songs that rockfish sing... →   No. Oh. Well, do you enjoy listening to singing? →   Yes. That's fantastic! Tell me, what's your favorite kind of song? →  Love songs. Oh, I like love songs too. I used to think they were just pretty. But ever since I met Eric, I understand them so much better. →  Dance songs. Oh, I love those too! Sebastian is really good at writing dance songs. He can get the whole ocean dancing! →  Rock anthems. Oh, I don't think I've ever heard of those. They must be songs that rockfish sing... →  No. Oh, I understand. Well, I hope you have other things that you enjoy. Like maybe... dancing or art. I saw a puppet show once. Maybe that's it! Maybe you love puppet shows! →  Badly. Oh, I don't think anyone truly sings badly if they enjoy it. That's the most important thing about singing. Having fun!

What are you thinking about?

I've always been so curious about the human world. And I just realized... You might be curious about my underwater world! Is there anything you'd like me to tell you about? →  What's the deepest you've ever dived? Well, I've explored an underwater trench. It was very dark and very cold. →  What's it like being friends with fish? I guess it's the same as being friends with humans. All fish are different but most of them are friendly. →  How do you breathe? Oh! I don't know. I just do! I can breathe the water like we can both breathe in the air.

What's up?

Where would you most like to go exploring, Player? →   The forests. Oh, I'd love to do that too! What do you like about the forest? →  They're dark and green. Hmmm...I've been in kelp forests like that. →  They're full of tiny critters! That sounds like the ocean... except we have schools of fish. →  Sometimes there are scary witches. Oh, the ocean has those too. →   The tundra. That sounds so interesting! What do you like about the tundra? →  It's nice and cold. Brrr. I wonder if it's as cold as the trench near Atlantica. →  There's so much snow. I'd like to see that. It snows over the ocean sometimes. My father took me very far north once, and there was ice on the water! →  There are gorgeous mountains. We have mountains underwater, too! But you swim down them instead of climb up them. →   The desert. I don't think I've heard of deserts. What do you like about them? →  They're wide and open. That sounds like the open ocean. There's room to swim in all directions. →  They're warm and sunny. That sounds nice. I like going to the surface to feel the sun. →  There are lions! I wonder if they're like the sea lions we have in the ocean. Sea lions can be very silly.

You look very happy.

Eric is wonderful, isn't he? He has the warmest smile and the kindest heart. What do you think about when you think of Eric? →  His smile. Oh, I love it when he smiles! He looks so happy. Like he's about to laugh! And he has a wonderful laugh, too. It really lets you know how much he cares. →  His personality. Me too! He loves exploring, just like me! And he's so understanding. When I couldn't talk, he was very patient. I'm really looking forward to discovering all the things we have in common and what our differences are too.

You seem preoccupied.

What do you do when you feel homesick, Player? →  Visit friends. Visiting friends always cheers me up, too. Especially my friend Flounder. He and I have gone on the most exciting adventures together. →   Look at mementos. Oh, that's smart. I spend so much time collecting human stuff, maybe I should get a few things to remind me of home. player Hmm. Maybe you could gather... →  Seashells. I do have some favorite seashells from when I was a little girl. I'd love to have those here to remind me of home. What a wonderful idea, Player. Thank you! →  Sheet music. Oh, what a good idea! I'm sure I could find some of the concert music that Sebastian's written. Then maybe I could get some friends here to sing it with me! →  Fish. You mean like in a bowl? I could never! Fish don't belong in bowls, Player. They need to be free in the ocean. →  Distraction. You mean that if you don't think about home, you won't have time to miss it? I guess that makes sense.

You seem to be looking at the Well... [Added 1.3]

Player, does anyone ever drink from the Wishing Wells in the Valley? →  Yes, I imagine some Villagers do. Huh... I've never seen anyone do it. But I'll try not to swim in the water that runs under them, just in case. I wouldn't want to startle anyone. →  I don't know. Why? Well, I always try to avoid them when surfacing in the Village, so I don't startle anyone. I'll keep avoiding them... just in case. →   I hope not. They're MAGIC Wells. player It'd be very dangerous. player And kind of weird. I use them to travel. Oh, then it might be dangerous to swim in them too. I'll keep on avoiding them then. Thank you, Player.
