Portia (ブレンダ, Burenda) is a snooty dog villager, appearing in every game from the Animal Crossing series. She is also the only dog with a snooty personality. Her Catchphrase, "ruffian" is a pun on "ruff", which is a noise dogs make, and a ruffian, which is a person who appears untidy, hinting that Portia is a snooty villager. Her French name, Dalma, may refer to her species of dog, a Dalmatian.

She has the fashion hobby.

Appearance

Portia in Template:GC

Portia is a dalmatian with gray spots and pale yellow eyes with black, upwards facing pupils. In Animal Forest, her mouth is small and hardly visible. Like several characters, Portia has numerous differences with her current and Template:DnM form: her eyes were smaller, differently shaped, and placed lower on her face. Portia initially wears the Polar Fleece in all her video game appearances, except for Animal Crossing: New Leaf in which she wears the Blue Diamond Shirt, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons where she wears the Rad power skirt suit.

Personality

Portia has a snooty personality, which means she loves makeup and gossiping. As a snooty villager, Portia will first appear rude and arrogant towards the player, often talking about herself and her own experiences. She also speaks about the style and appearance of other villagers, usually other female villagers such as normal, peppy, and other snooty villagers. She will soon warm up to the player, confiding in them about their own feelings but still keeping subtly rude. Portia will not get along with lazy villagers due to them not caring about their appearance or the lazy villagers hating what she eats, and she won't get along with jock villagers because they will question her on her physical appearance and they won't worry about fashion. However, she will get along with cranky villagers due to their similar rude personalities, and usually normal villagers as well.

House

Portia's house is very elegant and her furniture choice primarily consists of Regal Furniture and has been unchanged for years, and had Café K.K. as her choice of song prior to Animal Crossing: New Horizons. In Template:GC, Portia's house consists of regal furniture, along with two shirts and an umbrella, along with a phonograph playing Café K.K. In Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk, Portia's theme of her house has been unchanged, only with a classic buffet and one shirt, and Café K.K. still plays. In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Portia's house still keeps its elegant theme, only that there are three shirts and a red bed. There is no phonograph anymore, but if the player gives her a stereo, it will play Café K.K.
