Rory is ajocklionvillager in theAnimal Crossing series. He first appeared inAnimal Crossing: New Leaf and has appeared in all subsequent games. His design is based on the traditional iconography ofshishi, the Chinese architectural ornament also known asimperial guardian lions. More specifically, he seems to be based on its Ryukyuan counterpart, theshisa, as his maritime theme and Japanese catchphrase,Naha (the capital of Okinawa), suggest. His name comes from the roar a lion makes.
