There are many characters that can visit your village. These characters do not move in, but instead stay for an allotted amount of time and perform special functions. You can speak to Copper to find out if most visitors are in your town, except Gulliver and Wisp.
Blanca the Cat[edit]
Visits after you meet her on the train
When you visit another person's town, you might get Blanca instead of Rover on the train. She has a blank face, and you can draw her a new one. After this she will occasionally turn up in your town.
Chip the Beaver[edit]
Crazy Redd the Fox[edit]
Visits randomly
Crazy Redd is a shopkeeper just like Nook. He has many items that Nook doesn't stock, as well as stocking regular items. The catch is he sells his stock at really inflated prices. This is the only place to get a lot of the paintings, but beware: if you are planning on giving them to the Museum, some of them are fakes and you will have wasted your bells. Only buy the items listed below, as they are Redd unique.
