Earth Sprites (PoOT)

Colophon (コロポン, Koropon) is a group of hamster-like creatures in Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town who live in Earth Sprite Village where they sell crops and materials.

By making friends with them who live in Olive Town, they will give the player crops and materials made in the village. At first, there are few creatures, but more can be found as the player progress through the game. Maybe they will take you to a "special place" as you cultivate...?
