Villager

Villager is a character from the Animal Crossing (universe). He is the first Animal Crossing character to be playable and will make his first appearance in Super Smash Bros (Wii U and 3DS) although trophies, stages and an Assist Trophy have represented the series since Melee.

Character Description
The Villager is the human character in the Animal Crossing series that is controlled by the real person playing the game. The Villager may be either a boy or a girl; the differences in all games are largely cosmetic and with slight variations to some dialogue whenever the conversation becomes gender specific. The Villager is the only human character seen in the game (including visiting players). They are the only human children, however, it is assumed Mom and Dad, who send letters occasionally, are also human in appearance. Players will always have an in-game "Mom" and in spite of Mom referring to childhood events and the home that the Villager once lived in, there is no indication of any real sense of back story to the human character(s) telling why they went off to live on their own and Mom occasionally sends presents in the mail, with some gifts reflecting on the current season.

Abilities
The Villager bring an array of tools to help him as he fights. He uses a shovel to quickly bury opponents in the ground similar to the Pitfall from the same series. He can also plant and grow trees at an extremely accelerated pace which he can then cut down with an axe to cause the now full grown tree to land on opponents dealing massive damage. The Villager can also snatch projectiles out of the air, such as Mario's fireballs or Samus' missiles, that he can then use once against his opponents once afterwards. He carries a bowling ball which he can drop to knock opponents holding onto ledges off. He uses a helmet with balloons attached to it to float mid-air for a few seconds much like the characters in Balloon Fight. He has a potted plant that he can run with and hit you with that deals damage as well. He uses a slingshot as a projectile weapon and also has a pair of punching gloves for a melee attack.
