Gil

Want to impress Marlon? Kill 10 slimes. Uhhh... Make it to floor 25 in the mines or something.

Want to impress Gil? Yeah, kill 1,000 slimes you fucking amateur.

Enough said.

I also like how he just chills out in his rocking chair all day. Unfortunately there isn't much more you can say about Gil, but these are the reasons I think I would have liked to see him more as the head of the adventuring Guild, as opposed to the version we got where all of the focus was given to Marlon. Also he has a cool hat.

Marnie

This is just natural for the middle of the list. She's not bad, she's not amazing, she's not really TOO interesting, but I guess I rank her fairly high among the boring characters. Marnie is somewhat difficult to befriend, at least I rank her definitely in the bottom half of my "how annoying are you to befriend" scale.

The primary factor for this? Her shop is out of the way of everything else in the game. You have to specifically plan a trip to run all the way to the south of the map to visit Marnie, or the Wizard. Even the other characters from that location (Shane, Jas, Leah) can often be found wandering around town. Marnie is more tethered to that one spot.

With that being said I think she is the #1 vendor who has also pissed me off by not being in her shop when I go there at like 1 PM on a weekday SO MANY TIMES. So yeah, maybe it'd be better if she stuck nearer to the shop more often!

Anyway, Marnie is a really useful NPC who largely controls the access to animals. Hey, that's a major part of farming! Although the truth is that you can make millions of gold easily without bothering with animals, and some are worse than others, I assume most of us are not playing the game just to harvest 40 star drops from the greenhouse every 11 days and do nothing else. So yeah if you're into raising animals, this is the way to go.

Marnie's shop is also the most convenient place to trigger the "naming glitch" if there's ever an item that you are struggling to obtain through more legit methods. You can always buy animals, you can always name them, and Marnie will always say the name immediately. I haven't used the glitch myself before but I know how it works, and I have been sort of curious to try it out just to see. Just never got around to it. ConcernedApe is aware of the glitch and has no intention of taking it out, so it's one of those weird defining quirks that will always be a part of the game.

I mentioned in the Jas write up that I think the family dynamic between Marnie, Shane, and Jas is interesting. None of that would be possible without Marnie. The fact that she is looking out for Shane is pretty nice in and of itself. He's definitely the type of person who it would be very easy for his friends and family to give up on him.

Considering how many animal products are needed for bundles, Marnie can be a valuable friend if you're doing a Community Center run. And honestly, who ever sides with YoyoMart?
