Elderly villagers (who aren’t cranky)?

[Chungus]

Hi, everyone! I’m thinking of taking on another villager for my retirement community/beach resort in my New Horizons and I’m not sure about another cranky. I haven’t gotten too attached to any cranky that I don’t already have in my New Leaf!

Are there any implied elderly villagers based on design alone and not just on the virtue of them being cranky? I already have Dobie if that helps.

Elise, and that one Mouse strike me as being elderly in appearance

Maybe Elise or Baabara?

Nan the goat came to mind, cause her name is literally Nan lol. She lives on my island and gives off grandma vibes.

Mathilda seems elderly to me. Her catchphrase is weebaby lol

Greta maybe? Lionel also has a white mane / hair which could possibly work with the elderly theme

Someone said Deirdre is basically a grandma and now I can't unsee it.

Nan and Chevre come to mind.

Audie might work, since she's named after the Animal Crossing Grandma. She seems young at heart but she might add some variety since she's a peppy villager.

YES! She looks like a fully retired tourist grandma or a grandma who is young at heart that just moved to a beach town lol

Walt the Kangaroo might fit what your looking for. I've had him on my island for about a year now and I love having him around even though he is very cranky at times. You'll see him fishing for time to time, but never exercising. LOL

I have always felt like Aurora exudes a more mature, matronly persona, if not elderly.

If I’m not mistaken, Audie was based off a grandma that played Animal Crossing. I think there’s a video about it on YouTube. Audie is a great choice.

Cashmere! I love her unique design and she has some cliche grandma hobbies.

I know this is an obvious one, but billy the goat. He looks old (although he never acts like it)

 

[Lulucrossing]

Nan the normal goat reminds me of a lovely old lady so she could fit the idea!

 

[Shyria]

Stella looks like a sweet old lady who's always baking

All snooty villagers sometimes call you “Dear” and argue with Peppy & Lazy villagers. Typical Boomers!

All good ideas! I am compiling a list of candidates, among of them being Velma and maybe even Sandy (she looks tired and is balding with a few gray hairs). I would go for Elise in a heartbeat because she really do be fitting the trope, but I already have two monkeys. Billy is another great choice, but I have three jocks already! Oh, the horror!

Funnily enough, I used to have Audie and I really liked her (and she fit my island too well)! Yet I didn’t bond with her as much as I thought I would, and so I let her go. Back to the drawing board for me!

Walt the Kangaroo might fit what your looking for. I've had him on my island for about a year now and I love having him around even though he is very cranky at times. You'll see him fishing for time to time, but never exercising. LOL

Funny you mention Walt! He’s actually my favorite villager of all time and my best friend in New Leaf! He’s been in my town for years and is my #1 permanent resident on that game!

I would have him in New Horizons, but since I still have him in New Leaf, he’d be too repetitive. If he moves out for some reason, I’ll scan him into New Horizons.

Needless to say, you have great taste in villagers!
