Characters[edit]
Defense Attorneys[edit]
Miles Edgeworth One of Phoenix's earlier rivals, and his childhood friend. He is known for being a "genius" prosecutor. This role in the past also plays an important part in this case.
Phoenix Wright The reason Phoenix took this case is to chase something— or rather, someone— from his past. Where will this case lead him?
Defendant[edit]
Sister Iris One of the nuns at the Hazakura Temple. She also seems to be familiar with Phoenix, but why?
Victim[edit]
Elise Deauxnim A famous illustrated children's book author. Pearl is a big fan of her works. She is a very mysterious woman, but why did she come to the temple, anyway?
Prosecution Lawyers[edit]
Franziska von Karma A child prodigy prosecutor, and also one of Phoenix's rivals, albeit more sadistic. She seems a bit softer than in the previous game, but she is just as pride driven and whip-happy as last year.
Godot A mysterious blind prosecutor. He really loves coffee and drinks it near constantly. He seems to know Phoenix and hold a grudge against him, but why? The mysteries surrounding Godot will be revealed in this episode.
Witnesses[edit]
Sister Bikini Another nun at Hazakura Temple. Her jokes are as cold as the training rooms. She looks after Iris as a child.
Larry Butz (aka Laurice Deauxnim) Another childhood friend of Phoenix. He now works for Elise as an illustrator.
Other Characters[edit]
Mia Fey Your deceased boss and mentor.
Maya Fey Phoenix's best friend and assistant, also a spirit medium.
Pearl Fey "Mystic" Maya's younger cousin, who possesses much stronger spiritual power than her. She seems strong for her age too.
Detective Dick Gumshoe A clueless and sometimes stupid detective. He is very loyal to Edgeworth and has close ties to him.
Dahlia Hawthorne Phoenix's enemy in the past. She doesn't seem very lenient on getting her revenge.
Misty Fey Current Master of the Kurain Channeling School. Just where is she, anyway?
Morgan Fey Pearl's mother, who is adamant on giving Pearl the Master position. She is currently a jailbird due to her crimes in the previous game.
