I bought "Animal Crossing: New Leaf" in August 2013. I started my town Applewin and never reset. My eight original villagers were: 1) Walt (Cranky); 2) Jambette (Normal); 3) Velma (Snooty); 4) Scoot (Jock); 5) Twiggy (Peppy); 6) Keaton (Smug); 7) Shari (Uchi); 8) Drago (Lazy). No. 9 was Hans (Smug). No. 10 was Kidd (Smug).
I did not have Wi-Fi last August. I went a while without Wi-Fi. I newly set myself up again with Wi-Fi last November. And I began membership here at
The Bell Tree Forums. (This forum was a wise choice. I've had at least 98-percent positive experience.) In that period, I went through the laborious efforts of whipping Applewin into shape as a viable and harmonious town. I didn't have a focus on the cast of villagers. I did move out Walt, Velma (who I strongly disliked), Keaton, Shari, and Hans. Drago, this past spring, was lost by me in a mistaken TT incident. The rest have been kept. I feel that part of the identity of the town is that Jambette, Scoot, and Twiggy are original to Applewin; that they have a permanent place in the town. Kidd is a sweet soul. I didn't have the heart to let him go. Plus, with finally getting my first Dreamy that was Julian, it further encouraged me to keep Kidd and get more than game copy of "Animal Crossing: New Leaf."
Julian is dazzling. I love his looks. But I also think he's charming, easy-going, and a lot of fun. A non-popular Dreamy of mine was Broffina. One forum member posted a picture of the brassy sense of humor from this chicken; and the words coming from Broffina were believable coming from this Snooty chicken. So, I was given Broffina by a forum member. (I gave that forum member Pompom.)
Julian was based on looks and charms. A
spirit to him.
Broffina was based on humor. (I have since transferred her to being my sole snooty in third town Temps. The town of Applewin is, Public Works Projects wise, fully developed. I don't have to be concerned with a balance of Villager Personality Types.)
The rest of my Dreamies, following Julian and Broffina, developed along gradually over a few months. And I've been successful with all of them. There isn't one Dreamy that I have had, and was able to get, who made me regret the feeling and decision. I love, for example, the sweetness of Normals Tia and Merengue and the innocent boys-like Lazy villagers Erik and Zucker. I appreciate them all!

Aw, poor Whitney! I don't particularly care for her or the wolves either, but I'm glad she is in a good home now. I admit to hitting a couple of villagers on the head with a net out of frustration. But even when i really despised someone, ahem Gruff, I felt guilty about it. I felt sad and bad and rotten right away. They just look so sad. Although they look pretty cute when they're angry too. XD But mostly, they all seem like little kids too, so on top of being innocent animals, I'd feel like I was hitting a child. Evil!
Anyway, the one I adopted sort of out of pity was Pietro. Although I do love him, I love all the sheep, l love the smug personalities, and I love rainbows. I'm ok with clowns, they don't scare me. But people are really mean about him. So I made a joke of it in my town, and buried a skeleton next to his house. Pietro's revenge. lol. I'm nuts. Otherwise he's super sweet and wonderful.
Pietro and Jambette are opposite-sex counterparts. They're derided because of their looks. But, when you get to know them you realize that dismissing them, because of their looks, is grossly unfair. Jambette is a sweet, loyal, mature villager. Pietro is a supportive, kind villager. I'm glad I have them both (Jambette in Applewin; Pietro is Progress).
