Rudolph is a gruff old man who is seen working in the mines for Leisure Land's company in Harvest Moon: Hero of Leaf Valley. He is harsh and quiet who doesn't have much to say, but lets you reap the benefits of the mine after getting to know him. He technically works for the Funland company, digging at the Mine for them, but his heart will always be for the people in Leaf Valley as he helps preserving the Valley through his Event Path, The Secret Fossil.
