“You filthy ogre! I hope you get stung by a thousand Bees!”
― Carmen, Animal Crossing
Carmen (ゼリー,Zerī?, Jelly) is a snootymousevillager in the Animal Crossing series. She was originally going to appear in City Folk,[citation needed] but she was replaced by a rabbit villager also named Carmen. Her initial catchphrase, "bumpkin", is a derogatory term referring to someone from the country, which suits her snooty personality. This could also be referencing her species, the mouse, which are known to live in country and farm areas.
Carmen is a pink mouse with golden-blonde hair. The lower part of her face is a white-yellow color. She has light pink ear innards, white tail stripes, and the ends of her arms are white. She is similar in appearance to Candi. In Animal Forest, she is a darker pink color, her ear innards are light blue, her eyes are different, and her hair is darker. She initially wears the ribbon shirt, and carries the petal parasol on rainy days.
Personality
Below is a brief description of the snooty personality. For more information, click here.
Carmen has a snooty personality, which means she loves makeup and gossiping. As a snooty villager, Carmen will first appear rude and arrogant towards the player, often talking about herself and her own experiences. She also speaks about the style and appearance of other villagers, usually other female villagers such as normal, peppy, and other snooty villagers. She will soon warm up to the player, confiding in them about their own feelings but still keeping subtly rude. Carmen will not get along with lazy villagers due to them not caring about their appearance or the lazy villagers hating what she eats, and she won't get along with jockvillagers because they will question her on her physical appearance and they won't worry about fashion. However, she will get along with cranky villagers due to their similar rude personalities, and usually normal villagers as well.
House[]
Carmen's house has no real theme to it. She has both items from the red set, the red armchair, and the red couch. She also has two cacti and two pineapple beds. Her flooring is the kitschy flooring, and her wallpaper is the kitschy wall. She has no stereo at first, but if she obtains one, it will play K.K. Technopop.
Carmen loves her sleep. In fact, this little dormouse has two beds in her home-for sleepovers with friends and as a backup bed. In case of emergencies, you know? It may seem odd, but hey, variety is the spice of life.
