Ace is a jock bird villager in the Animal Crossing series. He appears in Doubutsu no Mori, Doubutsu no Mori+, Animal Crossing, Doubutsu no Mori e+, and returns in Animal Crossing: New Horizons with the 2.0 Update. His name's origin and catchphrase may come from the ace of spades, a symbol used in card games that is on his default shirt prior to Animal Crossing: New Horizons. He shares his catchphrase with Rod. According to his e-Reader card profile, his house in Animal Crossing, and his house request in Happy Home Paradise, Ace has a fascination with fishing. Masa's e-Reader card profile describes Ace as his fishing buddy.

In New Horizons, Ace has the nature hobby and may be found reading a book pertaining to an item he is studying, which can be either flowers, bugs, fish, or fossils.

Characteristics[edit]

Artwork of Ace from Animal Crossing.

Appearance[edit]

Ace is a blue bird with a cream face and stomach, and cream-tipped wings. His tail feathers are blue, orange, and cream. He has orange ellipse-shaped spots on his cheeks, a yellow beak, and black-dotted eyes that are directly adjacent to long, black eyebrows.

Personality[edit]

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

Ace 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 gets 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.
