Personality

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

Sheldon has a jock personality and has a great interest in sports and bodybuilding. Jock villagers are hyperactive and motivated, but often come across as self-centered and dense. As a jock villager, Sheldon is very interested in his hobby, and may compete against the player at catching bugs and fish. Jock villagers get along with peppy, cranky, and sisterly villagers, but conflict with the laid-back lifestyle of lazy villagers. Snooty villagers may also be difficult to get along with for Sheldon.

House[]

In New Leaf, his house has somewhat of an outdoor theme, as he owns two tree standees. Sheldon owns a Tape Deck that plays K.K. Folk.

In New Horizons, Sheldon's house has a forest theme, and incorporates many furniture pieces from the mushroom series into its design. Sheldon has a yellow mush parasol, a white mush table with a plain yellow mug sitting on top, a strange mushroom mush low stool, two yellow mush lamps, a simple DIY workbench, a log garden lounge, and an orange tape deck sitting atop a mush log. Sheldon's wallpaper is the Forest Wall, and his flooring is the Forest Flooring.
