If you are looking for a pair of extra hands to help you against the many hordes of cannibals Sons Of The Forest puts you through, Virginia is your best choice. However, if you are not careful around her, you can end up scaring her off.
But how exactly can you find this 3-legged (and 3-armed) mutant and make her your companion? Read on to find out how to get Virginia in Sons Of The Forest.
How To Make Virginia Your Companion In Sons Of The Forest
You can spot Virginia early in your playthrough, and you don’t have to look for her as she’ll show up near the place you set up base. Ideally, settle far away from snowy terrains as Virginia prefers to hang around warmer climates.
You won’t be able to interact with her right away, so take your time. If you’re not careful or thoughtful about your approach, you can scare her off.
Make sure you don’t act aggressively toward her if you want to earn her trust. This will throw a wrench into your plans of making her a companion.
Virginia will repeatedly approach your base to determine whether you are a friend or foe. Therefore, whenever you spot her near your base, make sure to:
- Put away your weapons by pressing G
- Do not approach her and let her go about her business
- Do not attack her
- Her death is permanent.
Repeat this process whenever she shows up at your base until she offers you a gift. This indicates that Virginia wants to become your companion, and you can interact with her.

Should I Make Virginia a Companion in Sons Of The Forest?
Once you have befriended Virginia, she can become a powerful ally that will fight alongside you if you give her a weapon. As she can effectively fight off our large hordes of enemies, her fighting prowess is nothing to scoff at.
That is not all. She will also lead you to caves and encampments, which you can loot. She will even bring you berries, flowers, animals, and minerals as gifts.
Who can say no to that?
How Do I Command Virginia in Sons of the Forest?
Virginia does not take commands from you, unlike Kelvin. You’ll notice she only accompanies you whenever she wishes until she decides to roam around on her own (almost like a typical cat).
It is worth noting that Virginia has a habit of wandering in the wilderness and disappearing for a long time, so if you want to keep track of her at all times, remember to equip her with a GPS Tracker.
