Character name: Kristoph Gavin
Series: Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney
Age: 32
Job: Camp Stylist
Canon: Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, while starring a largely new cast of characters rather than that of the previous trilogy, follows in its footsteps in terms of ridiculous courtroom antics and, of course, quirky personalities to fill the witness stand, the prosecution, and the defense. The player commands the third category, following the story through the eyes of Apollo Justice, a rookie defense attorney trying desperately to make his case or perhaps just to make sense of anything or anyone at all.
Apollo's mentor, Kristoph Gavin, is a veteran defense attorney who appears to guide Apollo through the ropes of the courtroom through supporting him in court and giving him the standard tutorial. Calm, collected, and good at what he does, he can keep a steady smile through events that nearly give Apollo a heart attack, and tends to find poetry even in a murder scene. He's obviously rich, well-bred, and very well-groomed (on one occasion taking time out of a scene to apply his favorite expensive nail polish). But don't let his smiling demeanor fool you: he's also a chronic elitist, and will probably ridicule you as much as he will politely converse. [SPOILERS: currently, he is meant to be in jail due to his bad habit of eliminating any obstacles to his career and good reputation.]
Sample Entry:
Ms. Sayre, correct? It is my pleasure to make your acquaintance. However, I'm afraid I have a secret to confess. As much as I value my own personal upkeep, and while I consequently thank you for noticing my efforts, I cannot say I am properly qualified to tend to others. I graduated from law school, not beauty school, after all. ...Oh, not to say that I am complaining. Given my position I am honored to accept your generosity. Truly, I am in your debt. I will trust your judgment in hiring me... And of course, I will do my best to compensate for what I lack in professional experience.
A demonstration is in order, then. If the volunteer would like to step u--gkk. This is... Yes, I recognize the desperate need for cosmetic assistance. But I rather fear that this is a case of missing the volunteer line for 'Halloween costume contest.' If this is truly natural, nothing short of a makeover miracle is going to rectify this rotten tower of flesh in the shape of a man. And while I do wish I were capable of such a feat, for the sake of everyone... I would rather refrain from catching the multitude of skin diseases I would no doubt acquire upon touching this lumbering oaf. I... Well, I will think of something.
Hello, then, sir. My name is Kristoph Gavin; to you, I would be your Camp Stylist. To adapt an old saying: give a man a makeover and he will look decent for the day, but teach a man proper hygiene habits and he will avoid looking like a B-movie reject for the rest of his lifetime. So please, make sure you have your ears on tight and listen to my advice. I'll be teaching you Basic Hygiene.
The shower shall be the key element in your hygiene routine. The bath, while also acceptable, is unfortunately not available on the premises. This 'onsen' will simply not do; making a public display of your nudity will only cause spontaneous blindness among your fellows, no doubt, something we would rather avoid. Thus, the shower: you'll want to access it frequently in order to keep yourself up to standard. While there, you should use soap, at the very least. Might I suggest something lightly scented with flowers or fruit rather than your current fragrance of 'Eau de Swamp'? I'm sure your peers would appreciate it. Normally, I would recommend shampoo and conditioner as well, but as you seem to be devoid of most of your scalp, you needn't pay attention to that little tidbit. As for your time outside the shower, for now we'll address the very basic requirement... Add this Deodorant to your Court Record, for easy access. --I said Court Record, which you'll note should not be anywhere inside your pants, sir. It seems a good deal of your brain must have been excised with that scalp. Hopefully you've at least retained the ability to remember what you're told.
That should be all for now. Ah, as for the bits of discolored skin flaking off of your body like dead leaves off a gnarled tree... I would recommend a licensed physician. You cannot expect your stylist to do everything for you, can you?
100% holy fuck shit
