characters from Nikolai Gogol's novel in verse, Dead Souls (1842) as animal crossing villagers: a thread

tom nook - chichikov (explanatory)

Sobakevich - Genji (or any jock really)
really physically strong and all his items represent the fact that he is physically strong

Nozdryov - Chops
both pretentious liars

that one couple paragraphs about how you should be jealous of middle class people because they can eat a lot because they remember poverty - pudge

selifan - limberg
both of their main characteristics is that they smell bad

the governer's daughter - fauna
this isn't really a main character just a section for Gogol to prove that he's ""straight"" and describes a pretty girl I just wanna talk about how much I love fauna. I love fauna

Themistoclus - Daisy Mae
both have a whole nose running thing that is NOT necessary

Nastasya Petrovna Korobotchkina - timmy and tommy
kind of inherently nice but still a weird product of the crisis of overproduction

Ivan Antonovitch - Isabelle
part of the machine but can be bribed

will be adding to this periodically, lmk if you have thoughts
