Tucker

He has ears with yellow highlighting the ends as well as a yellow tipped trunk. His eyes are partially closed with his eyelids being blue-ish purple. His feet and hands are tipped with white nails. Tucker has shaggy hair on the top of his head.

During conversations with other villagers, he generally gets along well with peppy, smug, and cranky villagers, while snooty and jock villagers may not get along with him due to their conflicting lifestyles.
