Boris

"Life's short. Eat chocolate."

- Boris

Boris (ダリー, Darry) is a cranky, pig villager. His name presumably comes from the word "boar", an animal similar to a pig, and usually wild. His initial phrase, "schnort", is pronounced similarly to "snort", a noise pigs and boars make.

Appearance
Boris is a blue pig with a large pink snout and large eyes and teeth. His teeth poke out of his mouth. His eyes are half-closed and slanted so that he looks like he is angry, but he is smiling. His initial shirt is Kaffe's Shirt.

In the Japanese games, Boris has yellow eyelids, and his eyes are more compressed and displaced.

Personality
Boris has a cranky personality, meaning he will appear rude and belittling at the player at first, but eventually warm up to them as they befriend him. He will appear mature compared to the other male personality types, meaning he will not get along with Lazy or Peppy villagers, the latter of which he may spread rumors of. He will, however, get along well with Snooty or other Cranky villagers, due to their shared maturity.

House
In Animal Crossing, Boris' house features a laptop next to a desk and a chair. Two gyroids also surround a potted plant in the far corner of the room. At the entrance, the player is greeted with a wide-screen TV as well as a toy train station. Adjacent to the station is a globe.
