Claude is a lazy rabbit villager in the Animal Crossing series. He first appeared in Doubutsu no Mori, and after his appearance in Doubutsu no Mori e+, he remained absent from the series until Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer, where he returns as a DLC character. His name could be a pun on the word "clodhopper," referring to his "clumsy" personality. His phrase, "hopalong," relates to the nature of rabbits to hop.
In New Horizons, Claude has the nature hobby and may be found reading a book pertaining to an item he is studying, which can be either flowers, bugs, fish, or fossils.

Appearance[edit]
Claude is a brown rabbit with lazy eyes that are white with black pupils. He has a tan muzzle and paw tips, and a dark brown swirl on his forehead where his eyebrows would usually be. His inner ears are light blue, and he has a black nose.
Personality[edit]
Below is a brief description of the lazy personality. For more information, click here.
As a lazy villager, Claude has a relaxed, laid-back lifestyle and will appear friendly toward the player. He often talks about food and is humorous or naïve during conversations. 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. In New Horizons, Claude goes to sleep at 11 PM and wakes up at 8 AM.

In New Horizons[edit]
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, if Claude is one of the villagers who moved in during the main storyline after the villager house development quest, his house will have a combination of non-craftable furniture, plus items crafted by players during the island development storyline, primarily from the Log Series and applicable native fruit sets. He cannot have his initial house interior unless he moves out of the player's island or the Happy Home Paradise DLC is purchased, in which either the player or Isabelle can reset the interior.
