Evan Denceforge

— Turnabout for Human Rights
Evan Denceforge was a practicing defense attorney known for a mouthwateringly large bottom, his out-of-the-box thinking, and saying silly things in court with a straight face.

## Personality

Evan is a generally friendly man with a love for bits and japes. He doesn't get mad, except for that time he caved a guy's skull in. He often stalls in court by telling jokes or going on tangents, while keeping a straight face to attempt to gaslight the jury. He rarely needs the time he stalls for, he's just having a little bit of fun. The antics in court also serve as a way for him to calm his nerves, and get into the swing of things.

He tries to help people as much as possible, but has a strong, warped sense of justice. He tries his best to get innocent defendants found not guilty, but also prefers it if the actual criminal can get away with the crime without being sentenced. This is because he has an extreme disdain for the corrupt prison system, that serves more to punish than to rehabilitate. He believes no one deserves the horrible treatment he's heard about, such as solitary confinement. In his mindset, any killer going through the experience of almost getting caught won't commit another crime again, and will go back to being a good, ordinary citizen, especially because they often only turned to murder because of extreme circumstances.

If he can, he tries to pin crimes on an unknown third party so that the true criminal can get away, but this usually does not work. In the end, he will always prove the real culprit guilty, because of his obligation to his client. However, he will offer to defend the culprit and try to get them a lesser sentence, unless their crime was particularly heinous.

He thinks most guilty people don't deserve prison, but this applies doubly so for innocent people. The court system puts a lot of power into the prosecutors' hands, which often means they can get away with giving innocent people guilty verdicts, forging evidence, or unfairly manipulating witness testimony. Evan is willing to do whatever it takes to get his defendants the not guilty verdict they deserve, provided that it can't be physically linked back to him. Ironically, this means he wouldn't consider forging evidence.

He makes use of tame tactics like having his defendant not talk to the police, and also uses more unethical tactics, such as threatening witnesses for their testimony a day in advance, sneaking onto crime scenes he is restricted from to investigate, and eavesdropping on investigation officials. He assumes from the get-go that most prosecutors are corrupt, and thus starts off each case doing these tactics. He assumes that until prosecutors are held accountable, the legal system will never change for the better, so it's okay for defense attorneys to fight fire with fire using the same tactics.

His silly and friendly nature means that if he is caught doing anything illegal, he can play dumb and try to get away with it. Also he kisses his homies on the lips.

## History

Note 2: Sometimes I pee and it's red

### **Pre-Lawyer**

He was born as an only child, and had an uninteresting upbringing.

In his first year of law school, he lacked motivation, and was about to flunk out. Around this time, however, his childhood friend got a job working at the state penitentiary and told Evan about the unethical ways the prisoners were treated. For Evan, being white, this was the first time he ever considered that the prison system could be bad. This bolstered his resolve to pass law school, and gave him a purpose to being a lawyer. He wanted to change the court and prison systems, and use lawyering as a way to keep people from wrongfully going to prison, and over time, started feeling the same about guilty people.

### Turnabout Gambit

Two years into law school, he learned about Manfred von Karma, who'd had nothing but guilty verdicts for his entire 38 year career, and was surrounded with allegations of forging evidence and manipulating witnesses. Thinking that von Karma deserved to pay for dedicating his life to abusing the court system, Evan decided to take revenge into his own hands. He spent two years practicing a skill that he would use to frame one of von Karma's servants, and once he graduated law school in 2016, he started setting up his plan in earnest. Around this time, he also started working at his mentor's law office. Two months later, on August 22nd, all his preparation culminated with him sneaking into von Karma's mansion and assaulting him to near death with a pipe, and Evan was promptly arrested.

His court debut was two days later, where his mentor planned to defend him for the assault. Once the prosecutor leaked detention center footage of Evan bragging about the crime and fistbumping his visiting childhood friend, his mentor left Evan behind, leaving him forced to defend himself.

In the course of the case, Evan accused one of the servants of assaulting von Karma, and before fully committing to sending them to jail, they realized that they were going back on all of their values as a lawyer just to save their own skin, and backed off. The court was convinced of the servant's guilt at this point however, so Evan had to prove the servant innocent, and ended up getting both himself and the servant not guilty.

### Turnabout Milk Twin Suitcase

On October 2nd, Evan Denceforge picked up another case involving a man accused of killing their twin in a suitcase. Also there's milk. Manfred von Karma was the prosecutor, and Evan beat him in court just like he did months prior with a pipe. After this case, it is implied that Evan started doing cases regularly, many of which are not played or named. This case was also the first of the few known sightings of Analog Evan.

### Turnabout Mangy Alley Cat

Shortly after defeating Manfred von Karma, he was invited onto a talk show with another rising rookie attorney, Phoenix Wright. On October 25th, they met for the broadcast, and thanks to Evan, it was the equivalent of two monkeys flinging shit at eachother for 40 minutes. During the broadcast, they heard loud noises coming from an alley, and it was there that a man was killed. There were also some cats involved in some way, which he has testify in court to stall. He opens the door for one of them at one point (see below)

### Turnabout Heaven's Gate/Death

On July 22nd, Evan got involved in a murder case where the victim's belongings showed evidence of them being involved in a cult known as Anfita. During his investigation, Evan tracked down the cult's whereabouts and infiltrated them. The cult loved to throw riots in the streets for NO REASON!?!?!?, but were currently inactive as they were too busy having GAY ORGIES! Now a part of the cult, Evan was invited to a ritual that would be held at an Applebee's, and showed up hoping to figure out more about the murder. Evan eventually discovered that the cult had sacrificed the victim, due to suspecting them of being a traitor, a big no-no in the cult. Around midnight, the cult asked Evan why he was not participating in the 12:03 gay orgy and chamomile tea session, and Evan had to participate to not blow his cover. He died because of unrelated damages at 12:07 AM, on July 23rd, the day before his birthday. All workers at the Applebee's that night were involved in the cult, so there was no savior to hear him scream.
