(I'm doing a drastic revamp of special character articles, starting with Tom Nook. I want to see how it turns out, so I would appreciate if Tom Nook's article doesn't go through any drastic edits besides grammar and formatting fixes. Thanks!)

At the beginning of all {{SER}} games, save ''New Leaf'', Tom Nook owns a small wooden shack. As the player buys items from him, the store will expand, eventually into a two-story supermarket. There are a total of four expansions, beginning with [[Nook's Cranny]], which upgrades to [[Nook 'n' Go]], then to [[Nookway]], and lastly [[Nookington's]].

After a period of time with Nookington's in ''City Folk'', Tom Nook will ask the player a question to "better serve his customers". Based on the answer given, Nookington's can close and reopen as a previous store to better suit the player's needs. Periodically, after the first questioning, Tom Nook will ask again, and the player can once more change the store.

==Stories==
 
Sometimes, upon entering his store, he will appear in thought, and may tell the player a story when approached:
 
 
 
:"...Well, actually, I was just thinking about the good old days, hm?
 
:I know it seems that the world is my oyster, what with my fine shop...
 
:But in my childhood, I lived the kind of life you couldn't even imagine!
 
:Yes, yes, but this was all some time ago, before I moved to this town, hm?
 
:Of course, I was born in our lovely <Town Name>, [[Sable#January Blues|but I moved away for a time...]]
 
:Yes, yes, the city years, I like to call them. I was a raccoon of action, hm?
 
:The big city certainly had its charms...but it had its pitfalls, as well.
 
:Indeed, I had to endure certain hardships that I've never spoken of, hm?
 
:...Hard to believe, yes?
 
:You're probably asking yourself, what the heck is Nook talking about, hm?
 
:For now, <Player Name>, maybe it's best that we forget we ever talked about this."
 
 
 
==General information==
 
Tom is very money-driven, and many years ago left behind his friends, most importantly [[Sable]], to travel to the big city. While there, he has dreams of success which are quickly broken by the harsh life there. After making nothing of himself, he returns to the [[player]]'s town to set up his store. Nook no longer appears to be friends with Sable, though the two often mention each other to the player. In ''New Leaf'', he even appears to have a slight crush on her, as shown when he blushes when [[Lyle]] mentions her and her sisters.
 
 
 
Nook seems to have a varied reputation amongst the [[villager]]s, with some speculating that he is, in fact, a man in a suit. His large, bushy tail seems popular amongst [[lazy]] people. Many will say that he has a checkered past, hinting at illicit activities. He is openly derided by [[Redd]] as a "raccoon in an apron." His [[picture]] quote is "I'll be there with bells on! Ho ho!"
 
 
 
[[Timmy and Tommy]] are Nook's assistants. All three make a cameo in the [[Smashville]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.
 
 
 
Tom Nook's description in the ''[[Animal Crossing: City Folk|City Folk]]'s'' game guide:
 
<blockquote>
 
''A kind raccoon with a heart of gold, Tom Nook helps you get started when you first move to town by loaning you a home to live in. Tom also runs a little supply shop in town that sells all the basics, including furniture, tools, and gardening supplies. Tom will help you in a variety of ways as your life unfolds, and you'll help him as well: keep shopping at the store and it'll get bigger and bigger. Eventually, old Tom will even need to hire his two nephews, Timmy and Tommy, just to keep his business running!''

Tom Nook (たぬきち, Tanukichi), except in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, owns the town shop. 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. After the final expansion, Nookington's department store, if playing Animal Crossing: Wild World, he will employ Harriet, who runs the hair salon, Shampoodle, and Timmy and Tommy, his nephews, in every Animal Crossing series game, excluding New Leaf, who work on the second floor. Although he appears to be a raccoon, he is actually a tanuki, a Japanese raccoon dog that is commonly mistaken or translated to raccoon. In New Leaf, Tom Nook instead runs Nook's Homes.

After the player moves in, Tom Nook takes the player under his wing and has the player work at his shop to pay off their debt.

Kicks (シャンク, Shyanku, Shank) is a skunk who appears in Animal Crossing: City Folk and Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

Physical Appearance

Being a skunk, Kicks has black and white fur and a large, bushy tail. He has dark purple eyes and a light pink nose. His apparel includes a brown hat and brown suspenders.

In New Leaf, he is outfitted in a white dress shirt, along with a brown hat, and brown suspenders.

Appearances

City Folk

In Animal Crossing: City Folk, Kicks makes his living off of shining shoes in the city, outside a run-down building, on fair weather days. According to a number of animals, he is so good at shining shoes that some animals that enlist his services are unsure if they're wearing the same shoes as when he began.

Once a day, the player can pay 500 Bells to Kicks to shine their shoes,[1] changing the color of the shoes to match the player's hair or outfit. However, pattern-made shirts will change the player's shoes to their default color. If the shoes do not change colors, Kicks will not charge for his services. There are a select number of shoe patterns that match each hair and outfit combo. Additionally, Kicks will sometimes give the player the option to have a masculine shine or a feminine shine.

New Leaf

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Kicks is the proprietor of Kicks, which will be built on Main Street after the player has spent 8,000 Bells at the Able Sisters and has lived in the town for 10 days. After completing the following requirements, the shop will begin construction and will complete in three days.

Upon entering the footwear shop for the first time, Kicks will introduce himself to the player and ask them to have a look around at the shop's wares, including various types of shoes and socks.[2]. Upon selecting one of the footwear on display, Kicks will give the player the option to buy it or try it on first.
