Story

Drawn to Life

Farmer Brown and his family were originally the farmers of the Village. They lived in the farmhouse with Banya crops in their garden. When Wilfre stole the Book of Life and tore the Banya page out of it, the Banya crops began to fade. This lead to the family heading off to the Snow Caves in order to find a new home. They were then trapped by Shadow Creatures until they were rescued by The Hero. The Hero was originally looking for the Sun page of the Book of Life. Throughout the rest of the game he protects the Banya stalks and works with Cookie to supply food for the Village.

Trivia

• Farmer Brown is referred to as botFBROWN within Drawn to Life's code.
• Farmer Brown sometimes refers to his son as "Lil'Rapo".
• Though Generic Raposa Characters besides Cindi do not appear in Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter, Farmer Brown wonders if his son is okay upon arriving in Lavasteam.
  • This may imply that the generic characters are still alive at this time, though they are not seen.
• He holds his rake in his right hand. This may mean that he is right handed.
• When he throws a snowball, he uses his rake as a catapult.
• He is one of the few Raposa to not have his idle sprite replaced in Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter.
  • He shares this trait with Cookie, NavyJ and Samuel.
• A glitch can occur if the player talks to Farmer Brown right after Wilfre is fought in the original Drawn to Life. After talking to him, his text box and speech bubble remain on screen. The player can roam around the village with the text box and speech bubble on screen.
  • This glitch will end if the player starts a cut scene or talks to another character.
  • If the player enters a building and then talks to any character, the game will crash.
  • Interacting with the Village Observatory doesn't affect the glitch in any way.
  • Entering any gate will remove the text box and speech bubble.
• When talked to on Turtle Rock, Farmer Brown says that “now that it’s all over”, he had been thinking about starting a box garden. Though it is unknown what he meant by “it’s all over”, he was likely referring to Wilfre being defeated.
  • However, Farmer Brown first mentions this before this happens. While this could simply be a mistake, it might also mean that Farmer Brown is talking about something different.
