Summary
AnAnimal Crossingfan drew their beloved dog plushie as one of the series' animal villagers. Many artists have come up with all sorts of original character designs for Nintendo’s popular series of social simulation games.
Almost all of the NPCs that people will meet inAnimal Crossinggames are anthropomorphic animals called villagers. These characters, who come in a variety of species and differ in personality, can do most of the things that a player character can, such as fishing and finding collectibles. AnAnimal Crossingfan has turned one of their stuffed toys into a villager, complete with their own unique traits.

In a post on theAnimal Crossingsubreddit, user adostume revealed that they drew their dog plushie, Chrupek, as a villager. Out of the eight available personalities in theAnimal Crossingseries, half are exclusive to male villagers: lazy, jock, cranky, and smug. Meanwhile, female villagers get assigned with either the normal, peppy, snooty, or big sister attributes. Some have argued that implementingrandomized personalities for villagers in the nextAnimal Crossinggamecould provide players with new and unexpected experiences. The lazy personality type would perfectly fit theAnimal Crossingversion of adostume’s stuffed canine, according to its owner.
ManyAnimal Crossingfans have come up with original characters for the series. One artist, bromojumbo, created a family ofsnail-basedAnimal Crossingvillagers. They have also come up with lobster and prawn villagers, one of whom resembled a character from the animated television seriesSpongeBob SquarePants.
Rare and Popular Animal Crossing Villagers
Community members complimented the illustration made by adostume, who also said that the villager version of Chrupek would probably receive the Raymond treatment should they visit the islands of players. Raymond is considered to be one of thebest villagers in theAnimal Crossingfranchise, and many treated the feline NPC like a rockstar whenever he visited a town. However, the high demand for Raymond among players of 2020’sAnimal Crossing: New Horizonsresulted in him being traded around the black market for absurd prices.
Aside from Raymond, there are other incrediblyrare villagers in theAnimal Crossingseries, such as Bob, who, like Raymond, will require a lot of resources to obtain as an island visitor. The octopus villagers are also hard to come by, as there are only five of them in the entireAnimal Crossingfranchise, making them the rarest type of villager, according to species. Among these octopi is the cranky Octavian, who is the only one from his race who has appeared in every game in the series.
