Derwin is a lazy duck villager in the Animal Crossing series who appears in all games to date.

In New Horizons, Derwin has the play hobby and can run around with his arms extended at any time, rather than only outside Resident Services during a scripted activity with a group of villagers.

Characteristics

Artwork of Derwin from Animal Crossing.

Appearance

Derwin is a blue duck who appears to have thick glasses, a few freckles, and orange hair on top of his head. He has a yellow beak and feet, and his eyes almost always seem to be closed.

Personality

Below is a brief description of the lazy personality. For more information, click here.

As a lazy villager, Derwin 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, Derwin goes to sleep at 11 PM and wakes up at 8 AM.
