In New Horizons, Maddie has the play hobby and can run around with her arms extended at any time, rather than only outside Resident Services during a scripted activity with a group of villagers.
Maddie is a brown dog, whose face and legs go from a dark brown to a lighter brown, ending up with a chalky white muzzle, paws, and tail. Her ears are the opposite: they transition from brown to a darker brown. She has triangular, black eyes with tan eyelashes, curved tan eyebrows, and a large black nose. She also has a large smile.
Below is a brief description of the peppy personality. For more information, click here.
As a peppy villager, Maddie will appear cheerful and friendly, and sometimes will reward others with gifts and compliments. To some villagers however, Maddie can appear to be rude sometimes. She has a short attention span and may have the tendency to overreact about small things. She will be easy to befriend, taking comfort in those she talks to most. She may, however, feel insulted when talking to snooty or cranky villagers, who may gossip about her or disagree with her style. She may also find it difficult to talk with lazy villagers, but she gives out comfort to jocks, who are the male equivalent to the peppy villagers. She also gets along well with normal, big sister, and smug villagers.
Ideal clothing for Maddie – Purple / Pink Simple and Cute clothing
Villagers prefer clothing that matches any one of their favorite colors or styles. For brevity, the following list only shows clothing that matches both favorite colors and one favorite style.
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, if Maddie is one of the villagers who moved in during the main storyline after the villager house development quest, her house will have a combination of non-craftable furniture, plus items crafted by players during the island development storyline, primarily from the Wooden Block Series. 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.
Maddie collects trivia like some folks collect stamps. But don't mistake that for genius. She may know a lot of facts, but the fact is she doesn't know much else.
Maddie's a little TOO into proper fur hygiene. She's constantly talking about new brands of body wash and shampoo, and she bathes all the time. This may seem rude, but do you think she used to have fleas...?
When Maddie's e-Reader card is scanned in Animal Crossing, she states having an obsession with the internet, something that many peppy villagers mention. This is alluded to in her favorite saying, with "IT" meaning "information technology."
Marina (Animal Crossing) Cristina (Happy Home Designer onward)
Cristina is a common Italian female given name. Her original one, Marina, was changed with her return, likely due to it already being assigned to an octopus.
↑Maddie's headwear during the Countdown can either be the New Year's silk hat or the New Year's hat, each rotating every year. The hat's variation will vary depending on what variations Tom Nook is selling at his stand.
↑If it is Maddie's birthday, her headwear will be replaced with the birthday hat (Blue variation).
