History SelfDemonstrating / PhoenixWright

* BornLucky: People tell me I'm this. Personally, [[ButtMonkey I don't see it...]]

Hello. I'm Phoenix Wright, an [[TitleDrop Ace Attorney]], and the so called 'Comeback King'. I am the owner of the 'Wright Anything Agency', formerly known as 'Wright and Co. Law Offices'. A lot of people refer to me as a 'legendary defense attorney' who is able to turn any case around. Really though, I mainly just search for the truth and point out the contradictions in a witnesses testimony until I find out who the true guilty party is. It doesn't matter how much you try to hide or obscure the truth, in the end it will ''always'' make itself know regardless of what you do.

* MeaningfulName: Apparently, considering I usually take the most bleak cases and somehow turn them around like a phoenix being reborn from the ashes. On top of that, most of my theories, no matter how crazy they sound, usually end up being right.

* NiceGuy: I always believe in my cilents no matter how much the odds are stacked against them, especially if no one else is willing to defend them. Let's just say I know what it feels like when no one else is willing to believe you...

As said above, I am now the current owner of the 'Wright Anything Agency'. Asides from me, I have two protégés who work here. Apollo Justice (who has the ability to 'Perceive' a person's nervous ticks, making it impossible to hide things from him) and Athena Cykes (who, thanks to her special sense of hearing, can use a special computer known as the 'mood matrix' that allows her to see a person's true feelings and makes it incredibly hard to slip lies past her). Though I mostly leave cases to them these days, if something comes up that makes them unable to defend or if they're having too much trouble, I'm more than willing to step back in to the ring.

In those seven long years, I had a lot of time to think. Mostly about how the legal system worked and the one who caused me to be disbarred from law. In that time, I spent a good portion of it trying to revamp the court system so it wasn't as biased against the defendants and protecting those who were truly guilty. Though it was a long and hard process, I eventually managed to reinstate the jurist system, and in the process managed to restore my reputation with the help of a rather new defense attorney at the time [[spoiler: by catching the one who caused me to unwittingly use forged in court.]]

!! ''TAKE THAT!!'' Your honor, I present the following tropes the describe myself:

* LivingLieDetector: As said above, the Magatama allows me to see peoples mental locks whenever they're trying to hide something. [[spoiler: So long as I word my questions properly]] it's almost impossible to lie to me.

* AccuseTheWitness: When I take a case to court, chances are I'll be doing this at some point; that said, I've also accused the case's prosecutor more than once. In one particular case, I even accused my own defense attorney, that one's a long story.

* AmoralAttorney: HOLD IT! That was only during the time I had Matt Engard as a client, and that was only because that monster had Maya kidnapped to make sure I get him declared innocent by any means

* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Comes with being a defense attorney. I often have to wrangle out the truth by using obscure evidence to point out the contradiction in a witnesses testimony.

* LoveMartyr: In my college days, I fell head over heels in love with a girl named Dahlia Hawthorne. There was a time when I would have done everything for her, and she knew it. [[spoiler: Actually the person I fell in love with was her twin Iris, while Dahlia herself was a monster plain and simple.]]

* OlderAndWiser: I try to put up this image for Apollo and Athena. [[spoiler: Though, mostly I'm just bluffing and spotting contradictions as I normally do...]]

!! ''TAKE THAT!!'' Your honor, I present the following trope the describe myself:

In the process of learning about the Feys, I also came into the possession of an amulet called the Magatama. It's a special stone that allows me to see if a person is lying by allowing me to see their metal barriers in the form of locks, know as 'Psyche-Locks'. This allows me to find ways of breaking through them by present evidence of what they did, and in essence makes it impossible for me to take cases of those who are truly guilty [[spoiler: so long as I remember to word my questions perfectly...]]

* AlwaysMurder: It seems that no matter what case I take, it will always involve a dead body.

* UnlucklyLucky: From the way my cases hit rock bottom before I turn it around, to all the life-threatening situations I seem to get into yet survive, my relationship with Lady Luck is...complicated.

* AmateurSleuth: Despite being a defense attorney, I usually end up having to find a lot of a cases evidence myself.

* LoveMartyr: In my college days, I fell head over heels in love with a girl named Dahlia Hawthorne. There was a time when I would have done everything for her, and she knew it.

* WaistcoatOfStyle: What? I had to change things up for a new generation of prosecutors and defence attorneys. And, let's face it, I look ''good''.

* DeadpanSnarker: Though, I mostly try to keep it to myself.

* IndyPloy: I don't get much time to prepair in between trials, so a lot of my strategy mainly boils down to "speak first, think later". Believe it or not, it's more effective than you'd think.

* TheMentor: I'm currently this to Apollo and Athena, giving them advise and taking over their cases when they need it... [[spoiler: Though nine times out of ten I'm as clueless as they are when it comes to several things in the case, though don't go telling them that...]]

* NoIndoorVoice: '''''OBJE-''''' ''err''... Objection. I only tend to yell in court because it helps get the point I'm trying to make a crossed, and in my defense, several other attorneys do this too.

* DeadpanSnarker: Though, I mostly try to keep it too myself.

In my eariler days, I worked under another 'legendary defense attorney' by the name of Mia Fey. She was a great mentor and taught me mostly everything I know, though shortly after my first case she was... murdered. I made sure the person who did it didn't get away with what he did though, and in the process I met with Mia's younger sister, Maya Fey.

In my time as a defense attorney, I have only ever lost two cases. One where [[spoiler: my client really ''was'' guilty]], and one the resulted in my disbarment to practice law. I won't go into the details as I would rather not remember that time, but during my disbarment I took up the hobby of playing poker (not for money, mind you, as that is illigal here), and piano. In that time, I also spent most of it raising my [[spoiler: adopted]] daughter Trucy Wright. Of course, that wasn't ''all'' I was doing in that time.

Feel free to stop by our work space if you have a case that needs defending. It doesn't matter how bleak it may seem, so long as the who needs defending is truely innocent, we promise that we will find the truth!

* TeamDad: I tend to be viewed this way to my assistants and staff.
