Gladys (ちとせ, Chitose) is a normal ostrich villager in the Animal Crossing series. Her name is based around her personality; a neutral name that is unlike the other personality type villagers, which all have names relating to their species and character. Chitose, her Japanese name, means "millennium" in Japanese, as cranes are symbols of longevity in Japan. Her initial phrase, "stretch," is a play on her species, which are known to have long necks. She first appeared as a new character in Dōbutsu no Mori e+, a Japan-only game, and was brought back in Animal Crossing: Wild World, Animal Crossing: City Folk, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons. She appears on the album cover for K.K. Rockabilly and she has the education hobby.
Appearance

Gladys is a female crane with large black eyes and a circular, crimson crest atop her head. The upper part of her face, wings and abdomen are white, while the lower part of her face is a dark gray. She has horizontally-striped legs alternating between two shades of gray. Her initial shirt is the misty tee. Her appearance seems to be based on the red-crowned crane which is supported by her initial clothing, though there is the unlikely possibility that she is a whooping crane. In Dōbutsu no Mori e+, her eyelashes are slightly shorter than in later games.
Personality
Below is a brief description of the Normal personality. For more information, click here.
Gladys has a normal personality, and frequently acts kind towards the player. Normal villagers generally get along well with lazy, peppy, smug, snooty, and other normal villagers. Gladys may conflict with cranky and sisterly villagers. As a normal villager, Gladys will usually wake up at 6:00 AM and is easier to befriend than most. Both normal and peppy villagers reference an unseen friend known as Moppina.
House
In Dōbutsu no Mori e+, Gladys' house has a Japanese feel to it. She has many exotic items, such as the bench, the bureau, the table, the chest, and the screen. Gladys also has three gyroids, and a pet bird. She has no stereo at first, but if she is given one, it will play K.K. Folk. Her floor is the tatami, and her wallpaper is the modern screen.
In Animal Crossing: Wild World, and Animal Crossing: City Folk, Gladys' house still has a very Japanese feel. She still has all her previous exotic items, plus the bed, as well as more bonsai. She also has a phonograph that plays K.K. Folk. Her flooring is still the tatami, but her wallpaper has changed to the shoji screen.
In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Gladys' house still has a Japanese feel, but it has changed a bit from the past games. She now has less exotic items, since the only one she has left is the exotic screen. Instead, she now has other Japanese items, such as the paper lantern, the biwa lute, and the tokonoma. She displays a bonsai, and a phonograph playing K.K. Folk on top of her glass top table. Her flooring is once again the tatami, but her wallpaper has changed to the tearoom wall.
