'''Jay''' is a [[jock]], [[bird]] [[villager]] in the {{SER}}. His English name is derived from the species of [[Wikipedia:Jay|bird]] of the same name, although there are no jays that have red heads like the villager. His Japanese name is the katakana writing of the kanji 燕 (Tsubakuro), "Swallow" (the species of bird). Also, his forked tail, red head, blue body, and white belly also suggests a [[wikipedia:barn swallow|barn swallow]]. His Japanese name is also derived from "comfort" or "enjoy".

{{Pers|jock}}
  
Jay has a jock personality, which means he will have a keen interest in sport and fitness, making him appear competitive and in some cases rude when talking to other villagers, usually criticizing their fitness. He will appear slow-witted and absent-minded when talking about deep, meaningful things. He will get along well with [[peppy]] villagers, but get confused by the choice of lifestyle followed by [[lazy]] villagers, who appear opposite to the jock personality. He may offend and upset [[snooty]] and [[cranky]] villagers. He is not very talkative, and is known to say he wishes he could talk to someone else the second time a player ever talks to him. He usually asks for fossils.
+
As a [[jock]] villager, Jay is energetic and has an interest in physical fitness and activity. He often talks about exercise or sports and may brag about his physical fitness. While often friendly to the player, he may comment on their fitness. During conversations with other villagers, he generally gets along well with [[peppy]] villagers due to their similar hyper personalities and will also get along with [[smug]] villagers, while he may offend [[snooty]] villagers by critiquing their fitness and annoy [[cranky]] villagers with his hyper personality. In {{NH|short}}, Jay goes to sleep at 12:30 AM and wakes up at 6:30 AM.

In {{NH}}, if Jay is one of the starter villagers, his house will have craftable items primarily from the [[Wooden Series]]. He cannot have his initial house interior unless he moves out of the player's island or the {{HHP|short}} DLC is purchased, in which either the player or [[Isabelle]] can reset the interior.

Jay is a jock bird villager in the Animal Crossing series who appears in all games to date. His English name is derived from the species of bird of the same name, although there are no jays that have red heads like the villager. His Japanese name is the katakana writing of the kanji 燕 (Tsubakuro), "Swallow" (the species of bird). Also, his forked tail, red head, blue body, and white belly suggest a barn swallow or a wire-tailed swallow. His Japanese name is also derived from "comfort" or "enjoy."

In New Horizons, Jay has the fitness hobby and will wear sporty shades and lift heavy dumbbells while exercising.

Characteristics[edit]

Appearance[edit]

Artwork of Jay from Doubutsu no Mori.

Jay is a bird, with blue, red, and white feathers and an orange beak and feet, and is similar to a swallow. He is similar to Robin, another bird villager.

Personality[edit]

Below is a brief description of the jock personality. For more information, click here.

As a jock villager, Jay is energetic and has an interest in physical fitness and activity. He often talks about exercise or sports and may brag about his physical fitness. While often friendly to the player, he may comment on their fitness. During conversations with other villagers, he generally gets along well with peppy villagers due to their similar hyper personalities and will also get along with smug villagers, while he may offend snooty villagers by critiquing their fitness and annoy cranky villagers with his hyper personality. In New Horizons, Jay goes to sleep at 12:30 AM and wakes up at 6:30 AM.
