Travelers

Art of a traveler (JP). Translation: "Let's go to an unknown island!"

Travelers (or Explorers in the PAL version) are special Miis that travel to and from the player's island and other islands via StreetPass, with these Miis being exclusive to Tomodachi Life. In order to receive and send travelers, the player must have StreetPass enabled on their system and on Tomodachi Life. The player can obtain their own traveler Miis when two married Miis have a baby. The player must choose to send the child to travel the world once they are fully grown.

Travelers's dialogue is unique from the normal Miis living on the island. They differ from gender and are different depending on their personality. For more details see the dialogue page.

Traveler Ranking

For every 10 islands they go to, the traveler will go up a level. The more islands they go to, the higher the traveler's ranking is. Their clothing differs as their rank goes up, and there are 5 rankings.

One star is from 1-10 islands, and is off-white. Two stars is 11-20 islands, and is grey. Three stars is 21-30, and is black. Four stars is 31-40, and is silver. Five stars starts at 41 and goes up from there, and is gold.

Problems

Problems that a traveler has are unique compared to the ones islanders have:

Trivia

• It's possible for a Traveler to send a letter with a picture of them at the Roof, despite it being a hidden location in the Western and Korean versions.
• If a Traveler sends a letter or comes back to their home island for a short visit but their parents are divorced or one of them is deleted, the cutscene will take place in one of the parents' apartments instead of their no-longer standing home. However, if both of their parents have been deleted from the island; they'll visit the Player's look-a-like instead.
