Why do you have a alt character?

[TheGreatBrain]

Storage, and patterns, but most of all, I love decorating the houses.

I have two alternate characters because I had two large empty spaces in my town that I couldn't do anything with. So I put houses there. Also I have completed almost everything with my mayor so having alt characters gives me the chance to catch all the bugs and fish and stuff like that again

Because I need the qr space.

I use all four characters in my town to go along with my retro theme. Each character represents a different decade either 60's, 70's, 80's, or 90's.

I have 3 alts that I made mostly for storage/pattern space, but and want to use their homes for different furniture collections. i also gave them each a different villager personality type. One's a lazy villager, one's a snooty villager and one's a normal villager. It's a lot of fun to interact with my villagers with the personality types outside of my own mayor self

I get side charecters for different reasons, sometimes I do it for more of a "story line" in my town, like my town Salem I have my mayor who is a good witch, a boy who is a make believe wizard who owns a costume shop, and the bad witch from Hansel and Gretel in her gingerbread house out in the woods. I also make side characters to hold all my designs! Especially crucial for paths because they take so many spaces, but then it's kind of annoying having to open the side character to fix a path when I accidentally kick a part up with my mayor. But I always try to make the side characters organic to the "story line" of the town.
