'''New Donkers''' are human characters found primarily in the New Donk City region of the [[Metro Kingdom]] in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. In comparison to most humans in the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise, they are fairly realistically designed. Like how New Donk City is a reference to the real life location {{wp|New York City}}, they are named after the residents of the city (or [[wikipedia:New York|state]]), New Yorkers. The New Donkers' voice clips consist of gibberish that sounds like American English. Both light-skinned and dark-skinned New Donkers appear in ''Super Mario Odyssey''. | |||

The male New Donkers also wear ties, gray fedoras, and shiny black shoes, while the female New Donkers wear gray sunhats. The only New Donkers who do not wear gray attire are the members of [[Pauline]]'s [[New Donk City Band|band]], who all wear red attire and black fedoras with white bands around them, and the [[Crazy Cap]] employees, who wear purple and yellow outfits. Most New Donkers are always seen wearing hats, but there are two who do not, both of whom can be [[capture]]d by [[Mario]] to control an [[RC Car]]. | ||

A few New Donkers give Mario [[Power Moon]]s, such as a lonely New Donker found sitting on a bench. The first New Donker seen in the game is in the [[Sand Kingdom]]. This man, a [[taxi]] driver, is unable to meet with his [[Tostarenan]] customer (called the [[Desert Wanderer]]) due to his taxi being frozen in the middle of the desert. After the Metro Kingdom, a few New Donkers are also seen in [[Bowser's Kingdom]] near, and even operating, the Crazy Cap store. Finally, several others, along with their mayor Pauline, can be found in attendance at the wedding between [[Bowser]] and [[Princess Peach|Peach]] in the [[Moon Kingdom]]. Like other attending members, they were brought forcefully. | A few New Donkers give [[Mario]] [[Power Moon]]s, such as a lonely New Donker found sitting on a bench.

Like many of the supporting characters, New Donkers will cower and refuse to talk to Mario if an enemy gets too close to them, regardless of whether Mario has captured the enemy in question or not. | Like many of the supporting characters, New Donkers will cower and refuse to talk to Mario if an enemy gets too close to them, regardless of whether Mario has captured the enemy in question or not. | ||

One example appears at the far corner of the park, and appears to be attempting to jump towards the lonely rooftop repeatedly. Several others can be seen walking across the central plaza in front of the City Hall, particularly when looking through the binoculars; these ones in particular seem to simply be animated textures, as they only appear from that angle, and can be seen going through posts and the bumps in the ground if examined carefully. All of the New Donkers that fade upon being approached seem to lack shadows as well. | ||
