Barold is a lazy bear cub villager in the Animal Crossing series. He first appeared in Animal Crossing: New Leaf and has appeared in all subsequent games. His name is a portmanteau of "bear" and the given name "Harold".

In New Horizons, Barold has the play hobby and can run around with his arms extended at any time, rather than only outside Resident Services during a scripted activity with a group of villagers.

Characteristics

Appearance

Artwork of Barold from New Leaf – Welcome amiibo.

Barold is a gray bear cub with glasses, pink lips, a five o'clock shadow, and a tuft of hair. He has white paws and a white tail, an oval nose, the insides of his ears are yellow and rimmed by orange, and he has a gray belly marking.

Personality

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

As a lazy villager, Barold has a relaxed, laid-back lifestyle and will appear friendly toward the player. He often talks about food and is humorous or naïve during conversations. During conversations with other villagers, he generally gets along well with peppy, smug, and cranky villagers, while snooty and jock villagers may not get along with him due to their conflicting lifestyles. In New Horizons, Barold goes to sleep at 11 PM and wakes up at 8 AM.
