Erik is a lazy deer villager in the Animal Crossing series. He first appeared in Animal Crossing: New Leaf and has appeared in all subsequent games. His English name most likely comes from elk, a large species of deer. Also, his antlers resemble those of a moose, which are also known as elk in Eurasia.

In New Horizons, Erik 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.

Characteristics[edit]

Appearance[edit]

Artwork of Erik from Welcome amiibo.

Erik is a brown deer with an amount of beige on his hooves. His snout is light brown, and he has white eyes with black pupils. He has short bangs near the top of his head. He has moose-like antlers on his head.

Personality[edit]

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

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

    In New Horizons[edit]

    In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, if Erik 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.
