IC INFORMATION;
Characters Name: Phoenix Wright
Age: 33
Canon: Ace Attorney
Canon Point: Post Apollo Justice
Species: Human
Gender: Male
Orientation: Widely heterosexual, as he’s only dated females, but if he started digging a dude, he wouldn’t really have any qualms. He should probably be given a wife, though.

History: Wikia!
Appearance: Basically a hobo
Personality: It was his disbarment, a stupid mistake caused by too much trust and a little bit of recklessness, that started the changes. Some of the changes can be considered good. Others can be considered bad. At one time, he saw some good in everyone, believed everybody was innocent until proven guilty, and always believed his clients when they said they were innocent. He was basically far too trusting toward the people around him. It’s different, now. He’s more prone to keeping people at a distance, and not automatically jumping to the conclusion that they are innocent. As a whole, he views the world more cynically. He sees more of the bad in it now, but occasionally, he still sees the good.

But he hasn’t changed as much as people may think. He simply prefers to keep most of his emotions to himself nowadays. Instead of letting the shock, anger, annoyance, embarrassment, and apprehensiveness show on his face, he chooses to keep up a mask of ease and confidence. It might also help that he is more confident and sure in what he says and does.

Phoenix is very laid-back, even more so than he was seven years ago. He hardly reacts to much of what anybody says, unless it’s in his default aloof manner. Anger doesn’t cross him very often, but occasionally he’ll get serious about something. He doesn’t hold grudges very often. For instance, he didn’t hold a grudge against Kristoph Gavin, even though it was Kristoph who, ultimately, caused him to lose his badge. While he’s attentive and listens, he’s been known to completely disregard things people have said to him and not respond to them at all. Since his disbarment, he’s stopped caring what anybody else might think. After all, they’ve already decided he’s guilty of presenting false evidence. He feels like they can’t think much lower of him.

Phoenix has also become a little bit more guarded. Not all that surprising, considering his disbarment was caused by trusting a little girl who gave him forged evidence to present. He’s careful about what he reveals at what times, or what information he decides to reveal at all. On the inside, he’s a lot like the same old Phoenix he used to be. Sometimes unsure, taken by surprise, a little bit sardonic and sometimes sarcastic. These things never really show on the outside, though. They’re often covered by his eccentricness, by his bad jokes and friendly laughter.

Another thing he doesn’t necessarily express out loud as often as he probably should is how much his family and all his friends mean to him. Even though Trucy isn’t his real daughter, he’s thought of her as such from nearly day one. He’ll protect her to the best of his ability. The same goes for Apollo. He hasn’t known Apollo for long, and he’s not related to him in any way what-so-ever, but he feels responsible for him. A lot of times, Phoenix sees a younger version of himself in Apollo, and he almost wants to make sure Apollo doesn’t lose that the way Phoenix did.

Although his disbarment has changed him in some ways, it’s hardly affected him in other ways.

The determined quality that came with being a lawyer still hasn’t left him. He never stopped trying then, and that certainly hasn’t changed now. He’s spent the last seven years searching for the truth. Seven years is a long time to patiently wait for the right moments and the right evidence in order to link everything together and expose the truth. He did it, though. Not only for himself, but for everybody involved who deserved the justice they got. While Phoenix still believes in justice and exposing the truth, he’s taken on a ‘the end justifies the means’ sort of demeanor. In Apollo’s first case, Phoenix gave him a piece of evidence that would help them win the case, even though he knew it was forged evidence.

Losing his lawyers badge brought changes. Some big, some small. Some good, some bad. It all depends on who is asked. But the fact of the matter is, he’s still Phoenix Wright, a once renowned defense attorney turned amateur pianist and master poker player. Even after his badge has been taken away, he’s never stopped trying to find the truth.
Abilities: Phoenix is in possession of a magatama. Phoenix’s magatama, once powered by spiritual energy, gives him the power to see Psyche-locks. Psyche-locks appear when somebody is keeping a secret. The secrets that are buried deeper than others cause more Psyche-locks to appear, and they’re harder to unlock. The locks can be unlocked through knowledge of the secret and evidence.
There are also black Psyche-locks, which Phoenix only encountered once, but was unable to unlock.

I imagine he’ll have to regain the magatama, but will he have to regain the powers it gives him separately?
Other: Nope!

SAMPLES;
First Person: Thread from Somarium

Third Person:
Phoenix could sleep literally anywhere. He frequently stole naps on the couch or at the kitchen table, sometimes even the floor if he happened to be down there and wasn’t too keen on moving. He was a heavy sleeper who could sleep straight through the day, and no amount of sunshine or bird chirps could wake him up until he was ready. It usually took several alarms and a lot of bothering from his daughter to finally get him out of bed.

He woke up slowly, as per usual. First he noted the sunlight, turning the insides of his eyelids orange. It warmed his skin, making his sweatsuit just this side of uncomfortable. The sounds came next, leaves rustling and squirrels barking. There was a disturbing lack of traffic, no honking cars or irritated pedestrians. It was that, in the end, that made him open his eyes instead of roll over and fall back asleep.

The surroundings were unfamiliar. The surroundings were definitely not his bedroom, which he was pretty sure where he fell asleep at. The lawns were cut, hedges neatly trimmed, and he was lounging in a nice Adirondack chair that he couldn’t remember ever owning. He sat up a little, glanced behind him at a fancy house that wasn’t his. He probably couldn’t even afford a house that nice. Though his heart was thumping unsteadily in his chest, his nerves and panic and worry spiking to all new levels, he settled back down and watched cars cruise down the road and people stroll down the sidewalk.

To nobody in particular, he said, “Looks like we’re not in Kansas anymore,” and waited for something to happen.
