Who Jeremy Gruffle is

Jeremy is the second resident bear and the one who turns gathering into making. He is a maker by trade and by temperament: taped-together tools, careful repairs, and a workshop full of projects that he would rather show you than talk about.

He is also unusually apologetic. His story is a slow unwinding of why a ghost would believe he deserves to be one, and his workshop is the practical engine that keeps the rest of your camp running.

“The island’s kind, apologetic craftsman and your route into tool repair.”

Notes for the daily round

1

Finish Jeremy’s early story milestones to unlock his crafting bench. Crafted items appear directly in your backpack, so keep a little space free before starting a large batch.

2

Broken tools can be repaired here. Do not throw away a tool you have upgraded just because it snapped; bringing it back to Jeremy is usually cheaper than starting over.

3

Recipes arrive from daily quests, fishing and other exploration. Check his menu after a new recipe drops, and read the ingredient list before selling surplus materials.

Story, without the spoilers

Jeremy’s storyline is wrapped around craftsmanship, family, and the fear that something you made caused lasting harm. His workshop is a safe place to return to between heavier chapters elsewhere on the island.
