Personality

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

As a lazy villager, Deli will be friendly and easy to get along with due to his laid back lifestyle. Like all lazy villagers, he has a love of food and relaxing. He will enjoy partaking in the usual hobbies, usually for relaxing reasons or for food, like when fishing. Deli will get along well with other villagers, but may offend or confuse jock villagers, who have a lifestyle of exercise and fitness, which conflicts with the lazy lifestyle of relaxing and food. He will get along with other lazy villagers with whom he will talk about food, comics, or superheroes. He will also get along well with normal, peppy, smug, and sisterly villagers, and occasionally cranky villagers, but may from time to time annoy snooty villagers, who disagree with the lazy lifestyle.

House

In New Leaf, Deli has K.K. Marathon playing on his phonograph, along with parts of the exotic series, such as the exotic bed, exotic chest, exotic bench, and the exotic screen. He has the tent wall and the ancient tile flooring.

In New Horizons, his house takes on a different appearance. The house has a blue color scheme, and objects like the bookcase, globe, and writing desk indicate he's more of a modern world-traveler.
