Hello my fellow ACNH friends! If you are like me, you obsess over which villagers to add to your themed islands. This fixation led me to creating all the villager lists.
If you’ve landed here, you are considering a fantasy-inspired island. When I imagine villagers for this theme, there are a few different angles, such as dark fantasy, whimsical, or even romantasy (SO FUN). I’ll keep all three in mind with these choices below. I think for dark fantasy in particular, you would find this list of gothic villagers helpful, too.
