Yo ho ho its new character time! Say hello to Jesse the dodo, a most particular "firebird" of sorts born with the magical ability to heat any air near their body (or in it as it turns out).
Kinda. Jesse was a character I had planned for a a month or two before ACNH was even publicly announced but originally was conceived as a goose instead of a dodo. Thing is New Horizons having dodos reminded me well... dodos wouldn't actually be extinct in my own anthro world because there aren't humans in it. It took me quite a while of debating back and forth after that if I wanted to still go with the original plan or actually do this instead.
So yeah that's a whole backstory behind that lol.
I like his bright feathers.
I used to wear a hip pack like this one in the early to mid 90s around 4th and 5th grade.

Pretty cool character... for one who can create heat. Inspiration from those dodos from Animal Crossing I take it?
