Township

Here is a list of the candidates in detail, as well as the carpenters who build the houses and a special sidequest regarding TownShip.

There are a nearly uncountable amount of combinations you can make. I'll list their name, where they are found, what services they offer and what they sell if anything, and how useful they are on a scale of one to five. My personal picks are the first, and they descend in order from best to worst.

You need to put the following people in the first available house.

Hekkeller
House next to your house in Hometown
Opens an Armory with Fire-element equipment:

Item	Cost
FlameSD	3200
BurnKN	2500
FireRG	2600
FireBW	3600
HeatST	3000
MagmaAR	4700
FlameSH	3700

5. This equipment is great early on in the game.

Poo
Pub, 2nd Floor, Coursair
He will occasionally dissapear from the town. When he comes back, he will offer to sell you an item. It's usually a MoonDrop, 1000Z.
4. MoonDrops for 1000Z? Not bad, especially late in the game.

Kay
St. Evan's Church, 2nd floor, Coursair
She will make your party invincible against Poison. This lasts for one winning battle.
2. Interesting effect, though obviously too short.

Back (yes, that's his name)
Armory, Guntz
He will make your party's armour stronger (+4). This lasts for one winning battle.
2. Interesting effect, though obviously too short.

Watts
Carnival
The riddle guy from the Carnival will open his own "Riddle Dojo". If you don't want to use an FAQ to play the game (then why are you here?) his last riddle will hint to where the secret character Bleu is.
2. Useless except for that hint...and any decent gamer should find Bleu soon after getting Grandpa.

You need to put the following people in the second available house.

Leminton
Inn, 2nd Floor, Capitan
Opens up an Armory:

Item	Cost
KingSD	1980
WonderRP	1980
MightyAR	2980
DemonSH	980

5. Extremely strong equipment, priced just right.

MacClean
Beach near WhaleCape (if you land Grandpa there you don't stay on the Overworld map)
Takes you to his secret fishing spot, where you can find 7 Snper and 6 PileWM (PileWM are called Porgy in the GBA version).
4. If you like to fish in this game, then this guy comes in mighty handy.

Win
West wing of Joker Gang's hideout
Allows you to change the window color.
2. I don't like the fact that you had to find him to do so...Final Fantasy and other games let you change it at will. But neat.

Brockden
Cave near Gate
Opens up a "Dojo". This has no use, so avoid him.
0. If you could fight people there, then it'd be cool. But you can't. What a waste. (Note: If this DOES serve some purpose that you've discovered, please e-mail me. Don't go crazy though as if no one has found it yet, odds are there is none.)

Pechiri
Top Floor, ThievesTomb, BEFORE you find the Evidence
This guy claims that a house in your town will convince him to give up stealing. Dirty liar. After you get the evidence, check your bank account...You've lost everything. Talk to him and he'll ask you if you think he gave up stealing. Obviously the answer's no, but if you want to see your money again, say yes. He'll give you a hint as to where he put it; go there to get it all back.
-1. He hurts you instead of helping you! Jerk.

You need to put the following people in the third available house.

Baretta
Armory, Windia
Opens up an Armory that gets better through the game:

Initial:

Item	Cost
LongSD	620
BronzeST	940
WoodenDR	290
SuedeAR	300
SaladBwl	60
RistBand	10

After HighFort Scenario:

Item	Cost
BurnKN	2500
FireRG	2600
QuartrST	2100
BreathAR	2500
NationHT	1800

AfterFarmTown scenario:

Item	Cost
ThunderST	7800
ChuckDR	5800
PierceRP	4600
EarthAR	6100
SockletAR	3600
GuardSH	5300

After GrandChurch scenario:

Item	Cost
DeathBW	23000
KaiserKN	25000
AmberRG	11000
MotherRB	28000
HeroAR	25000
ShinyHT	16000
HolySH	18000

5. Great armoury with good stuff, and keeps getting better.

Azusa
Mt. Fubi
He takes you to his secret hunting spot, with 3 pigs, 2 deer, 1 Grizzly and 1 Beak.
4. If you like to hunt in this game, this guy comes in mighty handy.

Wooppi
Hometown, 2nd Floor of Eva's Church
She tells your fortune (what's going to happen next in the game).
3. They're kinda like Zelda's fortunes, so she's a bit useful if you're lost and not using a FAQ (but seeing as how you're here odds are you don't need her.)

Akki
West of the Great Sea of Trees
Shamanize Katt to her Ninja form so you can talk to her. She moves in. Nisa, apparently Akky's friend, moves into her house after all six houses are built.
?. No purpose I can see yet...wierd. Please e-mail me if you know what effect (if any) this serves.

Macotti
Pub Bathroom, Coursair
He graciously accepts your invitation...
0. Kiddies, NEVER EVER offer drunks to live with you: They do nothing.

You need to put the following people in the fourth available house.

Karashnikofu(aka Old Guy)
Top House (Eichichi's house), Guntz
Opens up an Armoury:

Item	Cost
kingofDR	6200
BirchST	5500
GradeDR	5100
PierceRP	4600
SilverAR	5800
SlashGL	4100
WhiteSH	4300

5. Extremely strong equipment.

Barose
Gandaroof's memory, Inheart (Town of Childeren), Inn
This is wierd. You obviously must have the houses built ahead of time (because you can't come back). Once he's in your town, when you talk to him, if the character in front has 1 HP and 0 AP, he will offer to teach that character one of four spells:

Thunder
Freeze
Flame
Missile

The spell he teaches you is based on his "mood". He asks a series of questions, the answer shifting his mood (you can choose to keep saying "Yes" and learning no spell to really boost his mood). There are a couple ways to get the character in front to 1HP. Consuming Bait is easiest. You can also let a character die, then use a Dragon Statue to take him out, then put him back in. Note: You have four chances to do this. If you try to teach someone who has learned the spell or will learn the spell then you've wasted one of the four.
3. This is very complicated, and some of the spells aren't strong enough to make me bother. Missile is good, though. If he tought Hail, Fireball, and Bolt, then I'd give him a higher rating.

Garber
FarmTown
He makes your party's weapons stronger (+8). This lasts for one winning battle.
2. Interesting effect, but it doesn't last long enough to make it useful.

Locker
House next to Inn, Capitan
He paints the houses of TownShip. If you don't like the color, he can change it.
1. Useless, but cool nonetheless.

The following people need to be placed in the fifth available house.

Hanz
House next to yours, HomeTown
He opens up an Item Shop:

Item	Cost
Charm	1000
IronBR	1000
D.Earing	1000
WiseHoop	1000
GutsBT	1000
Cond.Up	1000
Medicate	500

5. The Strongest Item Shop in the game. Sweetness...

Yozo
Furthest Back Room of the Palace, Windia
You have to talk to him a LOT in order to gain him, but it's worth it. He offers to make a Dojo. Unlike the other Dojos, however, this one is useful. Talk to him repeatedly once he's in the house, and he offers to raise one character's AP by 16. Note that he does this only ONCE.
4. Use on katt, quick! Very nice if you want her to cast spells even without her ninja shaman morph-whew!

Martin
Inn, Tunlan (he's Hiding)
He asks for 3000Z. Refuse, and he'll give you 5000Z later.
3. A good quick way to make 5000Z. Nice.

El
Treasure Vault, Tunlan
He offers to guard the town.
0. He does nothing. Your town is safe naturally. (Again, if anyone knows differently, please e-mail me. I heard a rumor that he catches a burglar with some nice stuff on him and gives it to you, but never saw any evidence to support it.)

The following people need to be placed in the sixth available house.

Daiye
Inn, 2nd Floor, Windia
He opens up a Fish Shop:

Item	Cost
Srdine	60
Mckrl	60
Bait	60
Unagi	60
Tuna	300
Minnow	300

4. Very useful, especially if you like to fish. Also useful if you choose the normal carpenter, for cooking supplies.

Surfy
Northeast of TagWoods (you need Jean, Sten or Mina to get there)
Opens a Bank.
3. Useful, and makes your town complete, but you can go anywhere else for a bank.

Sumner
Closest house to Palace on Right, Tunlan
Lets you listen to the game's soundtrack.
2. Useless but neat, especially for the game music fanatics out there.

Salvador
Simafort
Makes statues of whoever is in the front. Takes 10 days to finish.
1. No real use that I can see, but cool. Could be quicker, though...

Normal Style House: This guy and his wife are master cooks, and they can mix up common items and tuen it into better items. You can make GoldBars this way:

2 Frizbee + 2 Dinker
2 ShaveIce + 2 GutsBL
2 F.Spice + 2 MisoSoup
3 Cond.Up + 1 Shrimp

GoldBars sell for a lot of money. Unfortunately, occasionally an accident will happen and the results will be ruined, so be careful if you're cooking expensive items. Still, by far this is the most profitable carpenter of the three.

Treehouse: This guy and his wife like Othello; they even admit it. They each placed 4 pieces of equipment on each of the boards. Find Tolens (this is their sole purpose) in lots of places. Then, talk to either one to place a Tolen randomly down. If a piece of equipment lies between two Tolens, then you have that piece and can ask for it at the nearby desk. There are 12 Tolens in all, but you only require 8 to get every piece. Unfortunately, the placement of the Tolens is completely random; therefore I suggest you save before giving the Tolens to the carpenter or his wife, so if it lands in a bad spot you can try again.

(Note: This is starting in the top left corner, going clockwise)

First Board:
TigerSD
LopOffWP
ShinyHT
IceBW

Second Board:
KingOfDR
ThndrST
GiantSH
RainbwRB

ArabianHouse: This guy and his wife build a bar. The Old men there will tell you different pieces of information:

How many times you've gone through a dresser that has (or had) an item.
How many times you've fished and hunted
How many times you've bought Herbs
How many times you've gone into a battle
How many times you've taken treasure from a chest
How many times you've lost a battle
How long you've played
Who it's best to take along next
Nothing special here except for who it's best to take along next. For some reason he tells you how often you've lost a battle but not how many times you've run away (usually in RPGs it's the opposite). However, he also sells you a drink that raises the condition of all party members; 600Z per party member. A full party therefore costs 2400Z.
