Currently, there are 12 different spirits available in various locations around the map that Stella can help bring to the Everdoor. In the game, everyone starts with Gwen, whom the player meets at Alt Harbor. It's assumed Gwen and Stella know each other prior to their meeting at Alt Harbor.

Here is where players can expect to find the rest of the spirits:

• Atul is Stella's paternal uncle and can be found at Barkensheim Creek.

• Summer is a spiritual snake and can be found in Hummingberg.
• Alice the hedgehog can be found at Mount Toroyama.
• Astrid the lynx will be located at Bottom Line Corp.
• Giovanni, the lion and Astrid's husband, is found in Loneberg.
• Gustav the art-loving bird is located at Furogawa.
• Bruce and Mickey, the tough brother duo, are found on Southpoint Docks.
• Buck the basilisk is at Hikarishima Lighthouse.
• Elena the dog can be found at Crow's End Inc.

• Stanley the mushroom can only be grown with a mystery seed.
• Lily, Stella's younger sister, will present herself on Stella's boat once the player has helped enough spirits pass through the Everdoor.

Many of these spirits can't be unlocked until other skills have been earned, which requires helping some spirits pass through the Everdoor. Unfortunately, even if you don't particularly like a certain spirit on Stella's boat, you still have to help them pass over.
