Roswell is an alligator villager in the Animal Crossing series. He appears in Doubutsu no Mori e+ as a lazy islander and returns in Animal Crossing: New Horizons as a smug villager.

In New Horizons, Roswell has the nature hobby and may be found reading a book pertaining to an item he is studying, which can be either flowers, bugs, fish, or fossils.

Characteristics

Appearance

Roswell is a chocolate brown alligator with tan outlines of circles and filled in circles around his body. His eyes are closed with white eyelids that look like slits. When surprised, however, Roswell's eyes are opened, revealing orange, robotic eyes. Instead of blinking, Roswell's eyes appear to rotate, like screws, and also display an "X" shape when yawning. Two white fangs stick out from his mouth, like all the other alligators.

Personality

Doubutsu no Mori e+

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

As a lazy islander, Roswell acts less like any mainland lazy villager, preferring to have time alone to himself. This is akin to mainland cranky villagers, whom share the same grumpy personality as lazy islanders.

New Horizons onwards

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

Roswell is a villager that falls under the smug personality. He will not find it hard to converse with other villagers, as he is very polite and lively. He also may be seen flirting with the player, regardless of their gender. He may sometimes appear conceited when talking to himself.

Villager information

    Trivia

    • Roswell's design is based off of crop circles, patterns in fields often rumored to be related to aliens, and his name references conspiracy theories surrounding the Roswell incident that a flying saucer landed in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947. Roswell's Japanese e-Reader card also conveys that he has a fascination with UFOs. The items he also requests for his home are space themed, which may also relate to his name.
