Flo is a big sister penguin villager in the Animal Crossing series. She first appeared in Animal Crossing: New Leaf and has appeared in all subsequent games. She is the only big sister penguin in the series. Her name may be derived from ice floe, referring to penguins' cold habitats.

In New Horizons, Flo has the music hobby and may sing anywhere without the need of a stereo.

Characteristics[edit]

Appearance[edit]

Artwork of Flo from Welcome amiibo.

Flo is an indigo penguin with white feathers around her face. She has pronounced lashes around her eyes and an orange beak.

Personality[edit]

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

Flo has a big sister personality, a combination of the snooty, normal, and peppy personalities. Once she becomes a close friend of the player, she will act like a big sister. She may have disputes with snooty and cranky villagers since they enjoy spreading rumors.
