IC INFORMATION Characters Name: Apollo Justice Age: 22 Canon: Ace Attorney Canon Point: Just following the events of AA4 - Apollo Justice Species: Human Gender: Male Orientation: Heterosexual (Apollo never really gives any indication that he has any inclination towards a particular sexuality at all, so this is the most likely option.)
History:Apollo Justice on the wikia. And the summary page for his game. Appearance: Personality: Apollo has a bravado and confidence in himself that is counter-acted by the fact that he is so obviously uncertain of himself when put in the spotlight - he usually behaves in a very self-assured manner, but the moment he’s put under pressure he reveals his true, self-doubting nature. This is something he tries his hardest to hide at all times, to mostly inadequate effect. When the nerves hit him hardest, he will put up his front more solidly than ever, after practicing his Chords of Steel for a few hours in the morning, which only leaves him sounding raspy and more ill-prepared than he already was. Basically, you can tell when Apollo is nervous because he starts to yell louder and gets so lost in his own thoughts afterward that it’s difficult to tell why exactly he was yelling to begin with.
While he has the highest respect for people older and more experienced than he is, if someone gives him a reason to doubt them, he has a tendency to drop all pretenses of respect instantly. For example, Apollo had idolized Phoenix Wright, but upon discovering that Phoenix had manipulated him into using forged evidence Apollo wasted no time in punching the older man and proceeded to treat him in a sarcastic, teasing manner for the rest of his story, despite Phoenix becoming his mentor of a sort.
Apollo is actually a very vain person and puts a lot of effort into his appearence. It’s one of the things that gives him so much confidence in himself. When he’s looking good, he feels good, and he performs better. So he is a very cleanly person, at least where his own person is concerned, and judges people who don’t take care of themselves as well as he takes care of himself. Once again, the way he thinks about Phoenix is another good example of this.
At heart, Apollo is a very trusting, stubborn, self-driven person. He always believes in his clients 100% and is very devoted to discovering the truth behind every case that presents itself to him. The truth is very important to him, and while he may not go to any length to find it, he is more than willing to dig as hard as he can to pull it out.
There are a few more small points of interest to Apollo’s personality. Firstly, he is passionate about his work. He believes in justice whole-heartedly, hence his name. And he will always be happy to pursue it. He loves being a defense attorney. Secondly, he is not so great with technology. He doesn’t use computers much and he doesn’t drive either, preferring to bike. Lastly, linking in with the previous point, Apollo is something of an old-soul fuddy-duddy. He gets flustered at the mentions of anything inappropriate (ie ‘panties’) and he doesn’t care for loud environments or rock’n’roll music. And he doesn’t really understand a lot of people who are actually around his own age, falling in with a much older crowd as to his tastes. Of course, that just makes him all the easier to pick on and all the more entertaining for those around him. Abilities: Apollo is a naturally perceptive person and a very good defense attorney. He is good at analyzing a situation and projecting the most likely train of events. He is also very good at picking apart things people say, discovering the nuggets of truth hidden within.
The only ability that Apollo has that could be deemed as something ‘unnatural’ in any way would be his Perception: he has the ability to pinpoint the nervousness in other people and use it to his advantage in manipulating the truth out of them. Other: Apollo’s ability is a genetic thing, but is mostly ineffectual without his bracelet. He will be losing his bracelet upon his entrance into Holly Heights.
Apollo’s eyes were fixed on the mirror before him. He was just finishing up his morning routine in the bathroom at his new home, which meant that he was applying gel to his hair in copious amounts and making sure that his prongs were sticking up just right. His eyebrows were furrowed in concentration and his tongue peeked out just a little bit as he put the last bit of gel into his hair and then carefully stroked his prongs, making sure they were solidly in place.
“There!” As Apollo was about to congratulate himself on a job well done, he heard a door open somewhere in the house and startled, causing his hand to slip on his still-drying hair, sending it awry of his careful placement.
Letting out a distressed sound, Apollo glared in the general direction of the offending noise. “Could you keep it down out there?!” He yelled. Of course, most of the house had probably gotten sick of his yelling by this point, but Apollo sincerely wasn’t used to living with other people anymore and it was really throwing off his usual routines.
With a grumble to himself, Apollo turned his eyes back to the mirror, beholding the horror that was his ruined hairdo.
“Back from the start,” he mumbled as he rinsed the gel out of his hair and began to meticulously reapply it.

[As the view flickers on, a mighty finger pounds on the camera as a voice - its owner hidden from view - makes loud commentary.]
Does the light mean it's on or off? It's red... What does that mean??
[The finger moves away and Apollo's glowering face comes fully into view as he seems to be checking a number of things on the screen before him.]
...I think it means it's on. Is there an instruction manual for this thing?
[Once again, Apollo disappears from view as the sounds of draws opening and closing alert the viewer to the fact that Apollo is now searching for a manual that might not exist.
Finally, he sits up straight again, and pointedly fixes the camera with a direct look.]
Okay, okay, you can do this, Justice, just take a deep breath.
[He mutters the words to himself before following his own advice and taking a deep breath. His voice is loud again when he speaks once more.]
If this is on! Then someone should come help me! Because I don't know what I'm doing with this stupid computer!!
