Axel Gallery

Axel (エックスエル, Ekkusueru?, XL) is an jock elephant villager who first appeared in Animal Forest. He was absent in Wild World, but later appeared in and on the box art of City Folk. As of New Horizons, he is the only jock elephant in the series. His name may be a reference to vehicles, particularly rally cars or trucks (due to his species, known for their weight and stamina) which appear in some sports, hence his characteristics. His initial phrase, "whonk", is a play on the word "honk". He has the fitness hobby.

Axel in Animal Crossing

Axel is a dark blue elephant with a white stomach, orange-tipped feet and trunk like Dizzy. He has a paintbrush-tipped tail, with a jade/emerald color to go with his shirt. He has a white, round stomach that hangs out from underneath his clothes. The green on the end of his ears is the same green on his shirt and tail. He has a toothy grin on his face, and his mouth is actually in the middle rather than on the side, unlike other elephants. He has curly hair at the top and big eyes and a trunk that goes up. His initial clothing is the fresh shirt, which was changed to the kanji tee in New Horizons.

Personality

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

Axel has a jock personality and has a great interest in sports and bodybuilding. Jock villagers are hyperactive and motivated, but often come across as self-centered and dense. As a jock villager, Axel is very interested in his hobby, and may compete against the player at catching bugs and fish. Jock villagers get along with peppy, cranky, and sisterly villagers, but conflict with the laid-back lifestyle of lazy villagers. Snooty villagers may also be difficult to get along with for Axel.
