Gloria is a snooty duck villager in the Animal Crossing series. She first appeared in Animal Crossing: City Folk and has appeared in all subsequent games. Her catchphrase is "quacker," a play on the noise ducks make. Her English name, along with her Japanese name, Swanson (スワンソン), likely refer to silent film actress Gloria Swanson. This may be a pun referencing the fairy tale "The Ugly Duckling," where the titular character realizes he is actually a swan, further referenced in her Pocket Camp description.

In New Horizons, Gloria 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]

Appearance[edit]

Artwork of Gloria from City Folk.

Gloria is a white duck with a dark plum bob cut, blue eyeshadow, pink-tinted webbed feet and bill, and purple-tipped tail and feathers.

Personality[edit]

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

As a snooty villager, Gloria will appear arrogant and rude towards the player and other villagers. She may be offended when a jock character asks her about her physical fitness. She gets along with other snooty characters and tends to get mad when lazy characters are laid-back and do not care about anything.
