If you love a rainy day vibe (or are building an entire island around it – I have seen it done), then you’ll want the perfect soft and moody villagers to round out this aesthetic.
What makes a rainy day villager?
I picture a rainy day villager to be soft in color, cozy in design, with a calm and gentle personality. They may seem introverted or perhaps a homebody.
If this is your vibe, then keep scrolling to see my top 20 picks for rainy day, moody villagers. (And if you stick around until the end, an item guide for inspiration!)
