Characteristics
Appearance
Merengue is a pink rhino with white hooves and hair, a red horn spotted in dark red and ringed by green semicircles — strawberry-sweet from tip to toe.
Personality
Merengue's normal hospitality is warm and open about hobbies without strong opinions either way, friendly toward the player and easy with most neighbors. Cleanliness matters to her; she mentions hygiene when guests arrive and shares the unseen obsession many normal villagers carry. Lazy villagers who ramble about food may accidentally trigger dinner offers she did not plan, leading conversations into cozy meals. Most neighbors find her easy company — hospitable, neutral on hobbies, and gentle when talk turns domestic.
