Niko

"The islands help those who try their best."

- Niko

Niko is a gray langur in who appears in the  DLC. He works for Paradise Planning, a service that designs vacation homes for villagers.

In
When the player first arrives on the main Paradise Planning island, Niko redirects the player to the office to meet with Lottie. After introducing the player to both Lottie and Wardell, Lottie designated Niko to train and assist the player in handling the decoration of any new vacation homes. He also ferries the player to any vacation home whether that be for construction, visiting, or remodeling. Niko is interested in DIY, and occasionally builds DIY on the workbench in the upstairs room of the Paradise Planning building.

If the player chooses to design a house for Niko, his role will be taken over by Lottie.

Niko was added to on October 28, 2021, where he is a guest judge for the Happy Homeroom in place of Digby.
