Appearance
Willow is a golden fleeced sheep with pink horns and pink hooves. She wears little makeup (only blush), and because of the cute and innocent appearance on her face, it may give the impression that she is a normal villager. Her initial clothing is the Bad Plaid Shirt worn as a scarf.

Personality
Willow has a snooty personality; she often gossips about people when the player talks to her. She will like to talk about love and romance. She often sounds cheeky around the player when first acquainted, but gets better once the player gets to know her inner self. Willow does not like or dislike all characters with clashing personality types, that depends on the specific character's interests. For instance if one of the players villagers is "sloppier" than the other, she is more likely to dislike the sloppy villager than vice- versa. Since she loves gossiping, it will be hard for her to stop even if the player is really great friends - she will definitely cut down on it though. Willow also loves to talk about fashion and will sometimes ask the player to get her new clothes.

House
Willow's house has a very elegant feel to it. She has four pieces of the Regal Series - the bed, dresser, wardrobe, and lamp. She has the Upright Piano and a Bass, with "K.K. Etude" on a Retro Stereo, adding a musical feel. She also has a plant.
