Moonlight Peaks: How to Romance Evan (Gifts, Birthday, and Location)

Everything you need to win over Orlock's brooding vampire son, from loved gifts to the marriage path.

Everything you need to win over Orlock’s brooding vampire son, from loved gifts to the marriage path.

Evan Ambrosia is the town’s resident emo vampire, a black-hoodie-wearing child of Orlock who tends to look moody and keep to themselves. Get the gifts right and stay consistent, and that cold front thaws into one of the game’s more rewarding romances.

Quick answer: Give Evan coffee drinks (their favorite), reach four hearts to unlock dates, then reach eight hearts to propose. Their birthday is Autumn 25, and you’ll usually find them working at Coffins and Coffee.


Who Evan is in Moonlight Peaks

Evan is one of the five vampires living in Moonlight Peaks, sibling to Mina and another child of the grumpy patriarch Orlock. Elvira and Samael Ambrosia are their cousins. Evan has heterochromia, so each eye is a different color.

The stoic act matches the floppy black hair and the hoodie, but Evan warms up once you start showing up with the right presents. You can also challenge them to a round of Nokturna, the town’s card game, and it counts as time spent together even if they won’t admit they’re enjoying it.


Best gifts for Evan (loved, liked, and disliked)

Coffee drinks are the fast track. They’re the only category Evan truly loves, which fits a character who practically lives at the coffee shop. Beyond that, plenty of everyday cooking and foraging items land as solid “likes.” Steer clear of anything alcoholic, since that’s a clear miss.

ReactionGifts
LovesCoffee drinks
LikesCakes and desserts, honey, homemade meals, homemade juices, forageables such as mushrooms
DislikesAlcoholic drinks, shells, rose quartz dust

Tip: On Evan’s birthday, the gift bonus stacks, so hand over a loved or liked item that day for the biggest friendship jump.

Evan’s birthday

Evan’s birthday falls on Autumn 25. Save a coffee drink or a dessert for that date to make the most of the seasonal friendship boost.


Where to find Evan

Evan works shifts at Coffins and Coffee alongside Mina and lives in the same building, so that’s your most reliable spot. Sometimes you’ll catch them napping in a coffin in the back room, where you can still wake them to play cards or hand over a gift. When they’re off the clock, Evan tends to hang around near the water.


How to date and marry Evan

Romance runs on hearts, and consistent gifting plus conversation is what raises them. Evan can be dated regardless of your character’s identity, so there are no restrictions to worry about.

Build friendship to four hearts. Keep visiting Coffins and Coffee, hand over coffee drinks and desserts, and play Nokturna when you can. At four hearts, you can start taking Evan on dates.
Continue raising hearts to eight. Keep the gifting steady and don’t slip an alcoholic drink into the mix. Once you hit eight hearts, you can propose marriage.
After the wedding, Evan moves onto your farm. They keep helping Mina run the coffee shop, and Orlock becomes your father-in-law in the bargain.

Note: Moonlight Peaks does not include raising children, so marriage is the endpoint of the romance path.

Stick with coffee runs and the occasional card game, and Evan goes from the town’s gloomiest vampire to a permanent fixture on your farm. The frosty exterior is mostly for show once you know exactly what to bring.
