To “tame” the girl in Sons of the Forest —Virginia—you need to leave her alone and build trust instead of chasing or attacking her.

What to do

  • Put away weapons when she appears.
  • Don’t run toward her or try to grab her attention.
  • Let her approach on her own over several visits.
  • If she dances or hangs around your camp, that’s a good sign she’s warming up.
  • After enough trust builds, she’ll start giving gifts and can become a companion.

What not to do

  • Don’t attack her or scare her off.
  • Don’t chase her when she runs away.
  • Don’t keep a weapon out when she’s nearby.

After she trusts you

  • You can give her a GPS tracker so you can find her more easily.
  • You can also arm her with a pistol or shotgun later on.
  • She can then help defend your base against enemies.

Quick tip

The safest approach is simple: stand still, stay peaceful, and let Virginia come to you.
