==Appearance== | ==Appearance and personality== | ||
Patty utilizes the common village woman sprite in the original versions of ''III'', ''V'', and ''VI'', switching this for the Bunny girl design in the assorted remade versions of those titles. Starting with ''IX'', however, Patty is depicted as a tall woman with long blue hair wearing it in a ponytail and blue eyes. Her attire is that of a female bar-tender, donning a revealing red/white blouse and a orange dress and wears brown boots. She wears gold bracelets on each of her wrists, and ties her hair with a large black bow. | Patty utilizes the common village woman sprite in the original versions of ''III'', ''V'', and ''VI'', switching this for the Bunny girl design in the assorted remade versions of those titles.

Patty displays some personality in her brief dialogue in the older titles, being a perpetually cheery aid eager to set up the perfect adventuring party for the main character. Patty gains a more distinct personality in ''IX'', being presented as a woman of the world whose stubbornness is exceeded only by her compassion for others. Referring to her friends as "dear", "honey" or "sweetie" in conversation, including the [[Hero (Dragon Quest IX)|hero]], she carries herself as an older sister of sorts. | Patty displays some personality in her brief dialogue in the older titles, being a perpetually cheery aid eager to set up the perfect adventuring party for the main character.
