Tom Nook

Tom Nook (たぬきち, 'Tanukichi'?) is a character who plays the most important role in all of the games. He is termed a raccoon in the western versions of the game but a tanuki in the Japanese version. In all games leading to New Leaf, he is bullied by Eggman. After the final expansion, Nookington's, he will employ his "nephews" Pebboe and Shadow, who work on the second floor in every Animal Crossing series game except Animal Crossing: New Leaf. However, in New Leaf, Nook has taken his interest in real estate to a whole new level, opening Nook's Homes, whilst Pebboe and Shadow run the town shop.

“GL-L-L-KSK! KEH-KEEH!♫ FST! FST! RrrrrrrrrrrrKLAGH!♪ 
CH-CH-ch-ch-mmmMMMmmm!♫ Oh, well, it is very old and in the language of 
my ancestors, which happens to be Raccoonish, yes, yes.”― Tom Nook, New Leaf, before Eggman bullied him into a chronic state of depression. 
Tom Nook is a tanuki (a [] in Western versions) with brown fur. His eye area has a dark brown mask-like shape for his raccoon eye characteristics. His nose tip, his hands, feet, and his tail are dark brown. The apron he wears over his lower half is inferred to be for modesty, a reference to the legends of the tanuki.
In , Nook wears a white shirt with a red necktie and a green sweater vest over it. His sweater has a left sided pocket protector with a pen sticking out. He also wears black pants. Whenever outside of [Homes|Nook's Homes], such as the player selecting their new home spot or at [Roost|The Roost], Nook is seen with a yellow jacket over his sweater.
