"No more debt for me!! My house is all paid off!!!!"
— A player paying off their mortgage, Animal Crossing: City Folk

The player, also known as the villager, playable character, animal crosser, or boy/girl, is a term used for the playable human character in the Animal Crossing series. The player may be either a boy or a girl; the differences in all games are largely cosmetic and with slight variations to some dialogue whenever the conversation becomes gender specific.

"No more debt for me!! My house is all paid off!!!!"
— A player paying off their mortgage, Animal Crossing: City Folk

The player, also known as the villager, playable character, animal crosser, or boy/girl, is a term used for the playable human character in the Animal Crossing series. The player may be either a boy or a girl; the differences in all games are largely cosmetic and with slight variations to some dialogue whenever the conversation becomes gender specific.

Overview

Players, like the main villagers, are short and stubby (in Animal Crossing: New Leaf they are taller and less stubby). The largely-physical differences may become blurred even further because Harriet allows the player to get haircuts of the other gender if one has had all hairstyles of one's gender from her. Kicks will also allow the player to get shoe shine colors of the opposite gender after enough shoe shines have been bought. (In Animal Crossing: New Leaf you buy and wear shoes. to see how to unlock the shoe shop in Animal Crossing: New Leaf see Kicks.There are several unalterable differences, (not in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, of course), but in older games.

The female character will always wear a dress, while the male character will always wear shorts, and the female character's default hat is a cone-shaped "princess cap", while the male character's resembles a spiked Viking helmet. These hats are used in Animal Crossing as the only hairstyle or head wear. In New Leaf, however, the player can wear clothes designed for the opposite gender and wear different kinds of hats.

Even though players are not the only humans, they are the only human children as it is assumed Mom and Dad, who send letters occasionally, are also human. Players will always have an in-game "mom" and in spite of Mom referring to childhood events and the home that the player once lived in and occasionally sending presents in the mail, there is no indication of any real back story to the human character(s).

Only one player from each town may be active at any given time, although in Animal Crossing: Wild World, Animal Crossing: City Folk, and Animal Crossing: New Leaf, visiting players (Over Wi-Fi) from other games are allowed in town at the same time.

Also, players do not talk. The only times they can talk are when answering questions or accomplishing something (get an item, pay off mortgage, get stung or bitten by an insect, talking to another player in dream towns, or remark about a catch).

Appearances

In each game, the player's face is determined by a series of questions that the introductory character asks.

Super Smash Bros. for 3DS/Wii U

Main article: Villager (SSB)
The Villager's Amiibo

On June 11, 2013, Nintendo revealed their new Super Smash Bros. video game for the 3DS and Wii U at Electronic Entertainment Expo 2013, featuring the "Villager" (むらびと, Murabito) as a new playable character.[1] The Villager is a boy with brown hair, wearing a red shirt with a light-blue number "1" printed on the front. The Villager's in-game moves include the ability to attack other players using a net, trapping them in pitfalls, and chopping down trees to cause damage.

It looks similar to the boy from the first five installments of the Animal Crossing series. Other skins are available, as well as a female option.

Animal Crossing X Mario Kart 8

The player has also been confirmed to appear in the Wii U game Mario Kart 8 as part of a downloadable DLC pack (along with Isabelle and Dry Bowser from the Mario series), where they again will be known as Villager.[1]
