Visitors[]

Some characters have appeared once and were not meetable, but warrant recognition because of their action. Examples include party visitors who were not mascots, or one-off villains who participated only in their event.

Trivia[]

Meetable mascots were always controlled by Club Penguin Staff members.^[1]
After the October 2011 Buddy List update, a variety of characters could be searched for, but they could not be sent a friend request this way. Instead, a message appeared, stating they were busy doing something else, and encouraging players to meet them to send them a friend request.
Some mascots have special dances for their outfits. Sensei can vanish with his outfit, and the Penguin Band can play their instruments.
Throughout 2013, all mascots were updated to appear in the new penguin art style. As a result, some (Aunt Arctic, Sensei, Rockhopper) were given outfits for the first time. Others (PH, Dot, Jet Pack Guy) were given new or updated outfits.
On April 25, 2013, Rocky and CeCe's in-game sprites and Player Cards were completely removed from Club Penguin.
