Personality
''Below is a brief description of the peppy personality. For more information, click here.''

As a peppy villager, Ruby will always appear to be in a good mood. She will get along with other villagers including the player, making it easy to befriend her and gain her picture in. She will enjoy the usual hobbies, and may ask the player for bugs or fish that she finds cute or has read about in Ms. Nintendique, an unseen magazine read by snooty and peppy villagers in. She will easily get upset, but due to a short attention span she will forget ever having the conversation. Like all peppy villagers, she dreams of becoming famous in the future. She will get on well with normal, lazy, and other peppy villagers. She also gets along with jock villagers, but may, on the rare occasion, upset them. She may annoy snooty and cranky villagers with her upbeat personality.
