Ursala (ネーヤ,Neeya?, Naiya) is a sisterly (formerly snooty) bearvillager from the Animal Crossing series, originally exclusive to GCN games. Like all RV villagers, she was found in the data for Happy Home Designer. Her name comes from the Latin word "ursa", meaning bear, and the female name, "Ursula."
Ursala is a pink bear with a light yellow muzzle. She has black freckles on her cheeks and a brown patch of hair. Her eyes have small eyelashes on them, and the insides of her ears are lavender. Ursala initially wears the Diner Uniform in the GCN games, the Pastel-Stripe Tee (identical in appearance to the Diner Uniform, but renamed) in New Leaf and Pocket Camp, and the Striped Maxi Dress in New Horizons. In Animal Forest, she had a bigger smile, different eyebrows and less ginger hair, which made her look more like a peppy or normal villager.
Personality
Ursala's personality changes from a snooty villager in Animal Crossing to a sisterly villager in New Leaf.
In Animal Crossing
Below is a brief description of the snooty personality. For more information, click here.
Ursala has a snooty personality, which means she loves makeup and gossiping. As a snooty villager, Ursala 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. Ursala 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 jockvillagers 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.
In New Leaf
Below is a brief description of the sisterly personality. For more information, click here.
Ursala is a sisterly villager. When befriended, she will give the player fighting tips and teach them ways to relax. Ursala will also give the player medicine if they are stung by a wasp. Like all sisterly villagers, Ursala is tough, but she will still care deeply about her appearance. Ursala has a tendency to stay up very late at night. It is easy to get her picture since developing friendships with sisterly villagers is simple due to her caring and protective nature, sometimes talking to the player about her friendship with her old neighbor's son. Ursala may get along with jock villagers who share her love of sports, lazy and normal villagers for how laid-back they are, and peppy villagers. However, she may conflict with smug and snooty villagers due to their arrogant nature. Ursala may clash with cranky villagers due to their similarly stubborn personalities, but often end up becoming best friends.
In New Leaf, Ursala's house and RV are based on a flower shop. She owns many plants, such as the moth orchid, the cypress plant and the weeping fig. She also owns a flower display case and a Cabana Bed. If she obtains a stereo, it will play K.K. Country.
Ursala may look cute, but she's very assertive-even pushy-when she wants to be. She's so subtle about it, though, that most folks don't even realize that they're doing exactly what she wants them to do.
In New Horizons, the blue color variation of the Striped Maxi Dress most closely resembles the clothes Ursala wore in previous games, even though she wears the default red one.
Her catchphrase probably came from her face expression.
In New Horizons, Ursala's preferred styles are Cute/Simple, and her preferred colors are Orange/Red.
