"I'll be there with bells on! Ho ho!"

- Tom Nook

Tom Nook (たぬきち, Tanukichi), except in, where he owns Nook's Homes, owns the town shop in. After the player buys or sells certain amounts of money in his shop, he will expand his shop, after which a larger range of items will be available to the player each day. Once his shop reaches its final expansion, Nookington's department store, he will employ the services of Timmy and Tommy, his nephews, who work on the second floor, and, if playing Wild World, Harriet, who is the proprietor of Shampoodle, a hair salon. Although he appears to be a raccoon, he is actually a tanuki, a Japanese raccoon dog that is commonly mistaken or translated to raccoon.

After the player moves into town, in all games excluding New Leaf, Tom Nook takes the player under his wing and has the player work part-time at his shop to pay off their debt.

Physical Appearance
Being a raccoon, Tom Nook has a large bushy tail and a predominantly brown coat of fur, with his belly colored white; he also possesses pink round ears and navy blue eyes, which are oval shaped. His most characteristic feature, however, is the dark brown patch of fur surrounding his eyes, reminiscent of a bandit's mask.

Unlike the majority of the special characters in the series, most of whom only possess one outfit, Tom Nooks outfits himself in a large variety of attire. Some of his apparel corresponds with the upgrade level of his shop -with each uniform befitting the charactestics of the store in which it is worn - or, in New Leaf's case, his job occupation. Others are only donned during special events.

As the proprietor of Nook's Cranny, Tom Nook wears a blue apron with a leaf, the symbol of the series, stitched in its center. He dons a red, white, and blue shirt and a matching hat as the owner of Nook 'n' Go - which resembles a convenience store, and an apron similar to those worn by grocers, marked by an orange leaf, serves as his uniform when he manages Nookway. Finally, when Tom Nook's store expands into a two story department store known as Nookington's, the ambitious raccoon dresses himself in a blue suit with a red tie.
