Vesta (メリヤス, Meriyasu?) is a normal sheep in Animal Crossing series that appears in all versions of the Animal Crossing video games. Her name comes from the piece of clothing vest, an item of clothing sometimes made out of the wool of sheep, her species, and possibly the Roman goddess of the hearth, Vesta, though this may be a coincidence. Her Japanese name, meriyasu, means "knitting". Her initial phrase, baaaffo is from the word baa, a word used to imitate the bleating of sheep.
Vesta is a sheep with cream colored wool and a dark navy blue face with glowing white eyes and a smiling mouth. Her horns are striped with orange and yellow, and she wears a scarf instead of a shirt, just like all other sheep in the Animal Crossing series.
As a normal villager, Vesta will appear friendly and hospitable towards the player and other villagers. Like other normal villagers, she will have an unseen obsession with hygiene and cleanliness, which she mentions when the player visits her in her home. Other than her hygiene interests, she will appear neutral and open-minded when discussing hobbies, such as gardening, bug catching, fishing and so on. Like other villagers, she will, from time to time, ask the player for favors feeling sorry for having to ask for help, but appearing very gracious once the task has been complete. She will get along easily with other villagers, but may conflict with snooty or cranky villagers when they say something weird or hurtful to her. She is easy to befriend.
Original Vesta is up for adoption for 50 BTB!
