Pestonya Shortcake Wanko

ペストーニャ・ショートケーキ・ワンコ

Head Maid (Area Guardian) in charge of the 41 Homunculus MaidsNazarick: Area Guardians & Other NPCsHeteromorphic (species unknown, dog-headed)Unknown

Personality

She is meant to end her sentences with "woof," but now and then she forgets and tacks it on a moment later. She is one of the two "pillars of kindness" in the light novel's Nazarick, as the author puts it: compassionate, and she wags her tail when happy.

Abilities

  • Can use high-tier healing magic
  • Can use resurrection magic (which requires valuables such as gold coins or gems as payment)
  • Can transfer her own mana to others
  • Her fur grants cold resistance

History

  • Created by Ankoro Mocchi Mochi. Because their creators were close, she, Aura, Mare, Yuri, and Éclair privately call one another by nicknames
  • Managed operations on the 9th and 10th Floors while Sebas was away (from Vol. 2)
  • After the Demonic Disturbance in the Royal Capital, she and Nigredo pleaded for the abducted Kingdom children, defied Ainz's policy, and were confined (Vols. 6–7; Vol. 7 p. 36, Vol. 10 p. 37)
  • At Aura's request, she healed the severed ears of the three elf slaves who had belonged to Erya (mentioned in Vol. 10)
  • [Movie bonus The Pleiades Day] She was released from confinement to run the orphanage (the confinement presumably lasted from the start of Vol. 7 to around Vol. 10)
  • After the operation to wipe out the whole Kingdom began, she and Nigredo again urged Ainz in person to change course; she had asked Sebas to bring Ainz to Nigredo's room (Vol. 14)

Trivia

Her creator originally wanted to name her "Pescatore" (a pasta dish), but since the word means "fisherman" in Italian, the creator felt it was too pitiful and changed it.
