Static is a crankysquirrelvillager in the Animal Crossing series who appears in all games. His name comes from the green and yellow lightning bolt that goes down his head. Both his catchphrase, "krzzt," and favorite sayings, "Zap!" and "Lightning never strikes twice," also relate to the lightning bolt on his head.
In New Horizons, Static has the music hobby and will be more frequently seen singing or dancing. If a stereo is set outside with a song playing, he will sing to the melody; if other instruments are set up, such as drums or guitars, he may play along.
Static is a purple squirrel with yellow swirl on his tail outlined in green and a yellow lightning bolt on the top of his head outlined in green. He has eyes that are half open, in a grumpy way. The lightning bolt fits with his name. He has an unhappy look that can twist into a happy face depending on his mood, and he cries when he has a happy look. This has been changed in New Leaf. The inside of his ears are a pale pink, and his paws are a lighter shade of purple than the rest of his body. In Doubutsu no Mori, Static's eyes are larger, and his pupils are much larger. His frown is also much more curved.
Personality
Below is a brief description of the cranky personality. For more information, click here.
As a cranky villager, Static will appear mature compared to other personality types. This will make him appear belittling and insensitive to other villagers, including the player. Despite this, he will learn to confide in the player, considering them his only friend. He will enjoy the usual hobbies, but for relaxation and peace rather than for competition. He will occasionally ask the player to get him clothes. He will find it difficult to socialize with peppy villagers, who he will criticize when talking to other villagers. He will get along with normal and snooty villagers, as well as other cranky villagers, who he will share deeper conversations with. He will, on occasion, annoy a normal villager, usually when being mean about something or someone.
Ideal clothing for – Black / Yellow Cool and Active clothing
Villagers prefer clothing that matches any one of their favorite colors or styles. For brevity, the following list only shows clothing that matches both favorite colors and one favorite style.
Static's been known to loudly complain about how nothing exciting ever happens to him, but he's ALSO been known to complain when something surprises him. There's just no pleasing some squirrels, you know?
Elettra (Animal Crossing) Protone (Wild World onward)
Elettra is an uncommon Italian female given name, a play on elettricità, "electricity," or elettrone, "electron." Probably a mistake by the localization, it was changed since Animal Crossing: Wild World with Protone, which literally means "proton."
