Arvio Relationship | My Time At Sandrock
Early on in My Time at Sandrock, Arvio will task you with delivering items to different people throughout town. Each quest has a time limit of 1 day, which is more than enough time to find the correct person (the quest marker tells you exactly where to go). This is an easy way to gain some extra friendship points alongside gifts.
Arvio Marriage
As with his sister, Arvio is also available to marry in My Time At Sandrock - check out our relationship guide for how to marry or divorce any NPC in the game.
