Each of these roles will increase the number of resources that the NPC, and you, gather around the valley. You will often see the NPCs interacting with the environment by performing one of the tasks above. Assigning one of these roles to an NPC will get you more resources when you are hanging out with them and performing actions related to the role. The more NPCs that you have filling the same role, the larger the bonus you will receive.

How to assign roles in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Assigning a role is relatively simple. You need to increase your Friendship Level with an NPC to unlock the role system. You can increase your Friendship Level by giving the NPC gifts, talking to them daily, and completing quests for them. Once your Friendship Level with any of the NPCs increases to level two, you will be allowed to assign them a role.

When your Friendship Level increases, the role screen will automatically appear and ask which of the five roles you would like the NPC to perform. A role cannot be changed once it has been applied. As your Friendship Level increases with an NPC that has a role assigned to them, the bonus you receive from them will also increase.
