The Stardew Valley Wizard - known to locals as M. Rasmodius - keeps to himself in a tower in the forest. This magical fellow never leaves his home, meaning you can find him there every day. If you continue to interact with him, you will eventually unlock his basement, where you can change your character's appearance. Unfortunately, you can't marry the Wizard, but make sure you keep up his friendship anyway.

How to unlock the Wizard's heart events
Here's everything you need to know about the Wizard's heart events:
- Any more than zero hearts
- The Wizard will start to send you gifts in the mail as soon as you reach a friendship level higher than zero - this includes fire quartz, frozen tears, jade, and purple mushrooms
- Four hearts
- At four hearts you gain access to the basement of the Wizard's Tower. Here you can change your character's appearance for 500 gold.
Where is the Stardew Valley Wizard tower?
The Wizard's home is a tower to the far west of Cindersap Forest and is open from 6 am to 11 pm. You need to have access to the Community Center and have read the golden scroll before the door is unlocked, at which point the Wizard will teach you how to read the Junimo language.
When you get to four hearts with the Wizard, you will gain access to the basement where the Shrine of Illusions is situated. For 500g, the Shrine of Illusions will let you change your name, gender, favorite thing, and appearance. You can also change the style of the cat or dog you've adopted, though you won't be able to change from a cat to a dog or vice versa.
Later in the game, you will be given the Goblin Problem quest. After completing this, a teleportation rune will activate in the Wizard's basement, which allows you to travel between the basement room and the Witch's Hut anytime.
