Clyde is Discord's chief mascot. While it's unclear exactly what Clyde is, he is heavily based on a controller for a video game; fanart on this site typically depicts Clyde as canid similar to the Nintendo Switch dog.

Greeting users as they use the application, Clyde initially made his home in bubbles (the application icon and default user profile pictures, among other areas). On Discord's 5th anniversary, Clyde received a face-lift which, among other things, lifted Clyde's sentence to closed spaces and made him rounder. He still tends to direct server notifications in the application to any users that are called for, with mixed reactions.
