Phoenix Wright

Phoenix Wright, also known as Ace Attorney, Nick, Ryuu-chan, Ryuuichi Naruhodou, The Comeback King and The Turnabout Terror, is one of the titular main protagonists from the Ace Attorney series.
== Charactah Account ==
Phoenix Wright is an easy-going, good-natured, and intelligent defense attorney. Despite that last part, he usually ends up using bluffs, manipulation and general making things up in court. The scary thing is that he usually turns out to be spot-on. He is the owner of the "Wright Anything Agency", where he and his two protégés work and take cases to defend in court.
Phoenix's early career was heavily intertwined with the Fey family. Mia Fey defending him after he was accused of murder reignited his desire to be a lawyer, and he later trained under her until her murder. After this, he worked with Mia's sister Maya and their cousin Pearl. However, after a few successful years as a lawyer, he lost his license and was disbarred from practicing law for seven years. During this time, he raised his daughter Trucy and prepared to expose the real criminal behind his disbarment and clear his name, which he eventually accomplished with Apollo Justice's help. After that, he retook the bar exam and the legendary ace attorney rose from the ashes once more.
Phoenix's power resides in an amulet Maya gave him called the Magatama. With it he is able to see if a person is keeping secrets from him in the form of big locks, known as Psyche-Locks, and then force the person in question to reveal these secrets by presenting evidence. In other words, he will always know if you are lying because the sudden appearance of these locks (your heart and soul) will give you away. This makes it highly unlikely for him to take on guilty clients (no one can deceive the Magatama. There is one catch, however — if Nick makes them feel like they have nothing to hide by asking the wrong questions, no lock will appear and he can be deceived).

== Trivia ==
* Phoenix is awful on the piano despite spending seven years as a pianist at the Borscht Bowl Club.
* Phoenix has a knack for poker, having played the game for seven years at the Borscht Bowl Club without losing once (although sometimes with help from Trucy).
* Phoenix only knows the names of three different floral plants: sunflowers, tulips, and roses. This is a personality trait he picked up from his ancestor.
* Phoenix has terrible handwriting, which was remarked upon when he tried to write a name while connecting dots on a jar and when reproducing the text of a letter.
* Phoenix has endured a large amount of physical trauma. He has chewed and swallowed a necklace that potentially contained a fatal poison. He has been physically assaulted by a murderer, almost taken out by mobsters, shocked by a 600,000 volt stun gun, hit over the head with a fire extinguisher (with temporary amnesia as the only consequence), had a tiger (playfully) jump on him, got caught in a large explosion that sent him flying several feet (with Luke Triton colliding into him from behind), and had a near-deadly encounter with a loan shark. He also once fell from a 40-foot cliff into a fast-flowing river - one notorious for washing its victims away, never to be seen again - in the middle of winter, only to escape with a fever that just left him bedridden for two nights. In court, Wright has had a toupee thrown at his face, been frequently whipped, pecked by birds, had seeds thrown at him, and had numerous cups of boiling hot coffee thrown at his face. Even after being disbarred, he was punched by Apollo Justice and later hit by a speeding vehicle and thrown thirty feet head-first into a telephone pole but walked away from the latter with just a sprained ankle. Unfortunately, the situation did not much improve after recovering his attorney's badge. He had tiny pieces of his hair sliced off, had his arm squeezed by thrown prayer beads, was knocked unconscious and was then threatened with a machete, faced the possibility of execution twice (including on the spot execution via guns trained on him), and had paper airplanes thrown at him. Considering what has happened to him, he is often viewed as lucky for surviving some of his experiences, and hardy for taking the physical abuse he experiences in court so well.
