Freckles is a peppy duck villager in the Animal Crossing series who appears in all games to date except Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp. Her catchphrase, ducky, refers to her species.

Freckles's Japanese name, Maguro (マグロ), means "tuna," and as such, she has a general fish theme. She owns tunas inside of her New Leaf and New Horizons houses, and the tuna item is unlocked for doing her Happy Home Designer house request, which is a direct reference to her Japanese namesake. Her Happy Home Designer and Happy Home Paradise house requests are fish-themed, and the chimneys of her New Leaf and Happy Home Designer houses produce fish-shaped smoke plumes. Additionally, her star sign is Pisces, which is symbolized by a fish, and her starting hobby in Animal Crossing: Wild World is fishing.

In New Horizons, Freckles has the fashion hobby and may be seen wearing a pink purse with a white flower on it, as well as a specific headwear or accessory item.

Characteristics[edit]

Artwork of Freckles from Animal Crossing.

Appearance[edit]

Freckles is a pink duck with a bit of brunette hair on top of her head. She gets her name from the five freckles just above her bright yellow beak. She has peachy orange cheeks below her eyes. She has white tips on her wings, and her eyes are round and white with large black pupils. They are positioned quite far apart from each other. Her legs are the same color as her beak.

Personality[edit]

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

As a peppy villager, Freckles will always appear to be in a good mood. She will get along with other villagers including the player, making it easy to befriend her and gain her picture in Animal Crossing: Wild World. She will enjoy the usual hobbies, and may ask the player for bugs or fish that she finds cute. She will easily get upset, but due to a short attention span she will forget ever having the conversation. Like all peppy villagers, she dreams of becoming famous in the future and reads Ms. Nintendique, an unseen magazine read by snooty and peppy villagers in Animal Crossing: Wild World. She will get on well with normal, lazy, big sister and other peppy villagers, but may annoy snooty and cranky villagers with her upbeat personality.

She cannot have her initial house interior unless she 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.
