✨ This week’s additional Villager Overview highlights Mulan, the courageous warrior known for her bravery, loyalty, and determination. Mulan brings a strong yet peaceful presence to Valley life once she settles in. While she may be recognised as a Disney princess, Mulan’s character has always stood out for her strength and resilience. Seeing her walking through the Valley alongside the other villagers feels like a natural fit, and her arrival adds another memorable story to the growing collection of characters who now call the Valley home. She also introduces Mulan’s Tea Stall, a unique service that allows you to collect special tea leaves that can be used in recipes.
Below you’ll find everything you need to know about unlocking Mulan, from her friendship quests to the rewards you can earn along the way.
🔓 How to Unlock Mulan
(Click on any image to enlarge)
To add Mulan to the game, you’ll first need to unlock the Mulan Realm, which can be found inside the Dream Castle. Once inside the realm, you’ll begin a series of realm quests that introduces you to Mulan and the training camp where she is preparing alongside the Imperial Army. During the realm questline, you’ll help restore the training area and assist Mulan with preparing the camp before completing her final realm quest “Protecting the Camp.”
After completing the realm quests, you’ll be able to officially welcome Mulan to the Valley by placing and constructing Mulan’s House, which becomes her permanent residence once the build is complete. Her home has a beautiful design inspired by traditional East Asian architecture, featuring elegant roof details and warm wooden tones. I particularly love how versatile it is when decorating - it works perfectly for cherry blossom gardens, cultural builds, or more peaceful nature-inspired areas of the Valley.
📜 Complete Mulan Friendship Quest List
Mulan’s friendship quests focus heavily on perseverance, personal growth, and supporting the Valley’s community. Many of her quests revolve around training, preparation, and helping others develop confidence - themes that closely reflect her story in the original film. Below is the complete list of Mulan’s friendship quests as you level up your friendship with her.
Level 2: A Daily Regime
Level 4: The Shadow Play
Level 7: The Art of Fun
Level 10: Training Games
As with other villagers, you can increase Mulan’s friendship level by:
• Giving favourite daily gifts (maximum of 3 per day)
• Having daily conversations
• Completing friendship quests
• Asking her to hang out while completing activities around the Valley
Spending time with villagers while gathering resources, fishing, mining, or gardening is one of the fastest ways to increase friendship levels and unlock their rewards.

🧺 Mulan’s Tea Stall
In addition to her friendship quests, Mulan also introduces a unique service to the Valley through Mulan’s Tea Stall, offering Chrysanthemum Tea Leaves, Jasmine Tea Leaves, and Oolong Tea Leaves. Once unlocked through her level 2 friendship quest, the stall allows you to obtain these tea leaves at no cost, though you can only collect a maximum of three of each type per day. These tea leaves are unique to her stall and cannot be found elsewhere.
The stall itself is also a lovely decorative addition, fitting beautifully into garden areas, markets, or cultural themed builds. Its design complements Mulan’s house nicely and adds another small piece of her world to the Valley.
✨ Mulan brings a really refreshing presence to the Valley. Her calm determination and quiet confidence make her feel very different from many of the other characters, and it’s always nice seeing her walking through the Valley as part of the community. Her home, tea stall, and friendship quests all add a small piece of her world to Dreamlight Valley, and together they create a lovely reminder of her story.
If you’ve already welcomed Mulan to your Valley, you’ll also meet her loyal guardian dragon along the way - you can read the full Mushu Villager Overview here.
