Professor Layton

Garfunkel is a tall, thin man with dark grey hair and blue eyes. He wears a similar suit to his brother but in blue and has a gold hawk-shaped pin on his sleeve. When in disguise he wore dark sunglasses.  As a child he had straight, red hair and wore purple clothes.

Personality [ ]

Garfunkel is shown to be a very kind individual. Despite having a strained relationship with his brother, he cares about him deeply and did his best to reconcile with him.


Professor Layton

Gerard is an old, balding man with dark brown hair and a moustache. He wears a white shirt with one brown button visible, a red v-neck jumper, white trousers, and dark brown shoes.

Due to his age, Gerard is often quite forgetful and finds himself relying on others to help him whenever he loses something, which is suggested to be a frequent occurrence.


Professor Layton

Ghent is a big but stout man with fair skin and no hair on his head. He's got small beady eyes, a big nose a tone darker than his skin, black lips, and a dull blonde mustache that gives him a passing resemblance to a bear. He wears a light blue shirt, a dull yellow jacket with no lapels, and black pants.


Professor Layton

Gilbert was quite stout. He had orange-brown hair curling behind his ears, and a beard of the same color. He wore glasses, a white shirt with a yellow tie and a green waistcoat, and plain pants with a belt.

Just like his son, Gilbert had an appetite that occasionally dominated his police work. He was well respected by most of his colleagues.


Professor Layton

Giuseppe is a large man with light brown hair, moustache so long that it covers his face, and eyebrows so large that they conceal his eyes. He wears an orange sweater with a white apron, khaki trousers, dark brown boots, and a flat blue cap.

Giuseppe is a butcher who seems to take pride in both his meats and his puns. He is possibly the only person who finds his jokes funny, which seems to bother him to some degree, as seen when Layton and Luke uncomfortably walked away while he used puns to try to sell them some sausages.


Professor Layton

Gonzales wears a blue bow-tie with his waiter-like attire. He wears green shoes. He is bald other than a slight brown mustache.


Professor Layton

Gordon is a very large man with dark brown hair and a moustache. He wears a white shirt with a purple bow tie, an orange waistcoat, a purple jacket, light green trousers held up with a green belt, and brown shoes. He's often seen sweating due to stress and dabbing at his face with a pink handkerchief. He also wears a green bowler hat with a green flower on his left lapel.

Gordon is a man who is virtually always in a state of stress or panic, often due to fear of being condemned to perpetual bachelorhood over matters as trivial as being able to solve puzzles. Despite this, he still seems to care deeply about his family, as seen through his concern for Simon's safety.


Professor Layton

Mr. Sloanes is a tall and large man with tan skin, pointy ears, black hair with greying temples, a pencil-thin moustache, and a beard. He wears a light blue suit over a white shirt and a green necktie, as well as black shoes.

Despite his tough-looking apppearance, Sloanes is actually a very kind individual. He's also very forgiving, as seen on his reaction to Bianca Teller .


Professor Layton

He wears a blue top hat, a blue jacket, suspenders, blue pants and black shoes.


Professor Layton

She is a skinny woman with tan skin and brown hair. She wears a white cap with a blue brim, a pink and white jacket, pink sport pants, and red sport shoes.

Weldon is very energetic. She is seen in multiple places jogging around London and is willing to make it around the world.


Professor Layton

Gustav has a white hair with a mustache and beard. He wears a blue and green suit with a yellow tie, and runs the Racetrack of Monte d'Or .


Professor Layton

He is shown to have rather large bicep muscles, as he is constantly flexing them.


Professor Layton

Sniffer is a man of a medium height, around as tall as Lucy Baker . He has ginger, puffy hair that contributes to adding his height. He wears a bandana to keep his hair off his sight. He wears glasses and carries a sling bang around with two bottles and a ruler exposed. In the promo art, he can be seen carrying a magnifier.
He wears a beige-colored coat (a design quite similar to Alfendi Layton's labcoat) with light pastel blue colored sleeves, along with a buttoned vest and white shirt tucked inside, and a butterfly bow on the collar. He wears turquoise-colored pants and a pair of orange and white shoes.

Sniffer is a very straightforward man, as he is quick to get to the point and wastes no time getting his message across. As said by Alfendi, he has a good sense of smell and sharp instincts- his assumptions are proven correct most of the time-- with him predicting Dwight Dread's death correctly as evidence. However, his flaw is that he tends to get ahead of himself and is quick to accuse, as he threatened Dolly Hollerday if she does not check in with the Mystery Room detectives, he'll do a bodily check on her. He even insisted via telephone to Lucy that Dolly is guilty and they should "squeeze the canary until it squeals", implying that they should interrogate her until she confesses.


Professor Layton

Hans, a short man with light skin and reddish-brown hair, is the identical twin of Aleks Lipski . He wears glasses as well as clothing appropriate for his work as a serviceman.

Hans shares a strong bond with his brother Aleks.


Professor Layton

Hazel is a small, mostly-yellow squirrel with white on her belly, inside of her arms and legs, and on her face. In addition, she has pink blush stickers on her cheeks and big buck teeth.


Professor Layton

Henry wears a navy-blue blazer over a white shirt with a red tie. He wears red and brown pinstriped pants, and black shoes. As a teen, he wore a green shirt with white pants, with red suspenders and brown shoes.

He can be very cautious and suspicious of people, especially Professor Hershel Layton . He is also very busy and an incredibly diligent worker. But though he appears bitter and cold to strangers, he is actually a very kind and loyal person who thinks of others before himself. Henry tends to make a lot of tea and is very appreciative, possibly due to his upbringing as a servant.


Professor Layton

Layton's primary appearance in the franchise is that of a tall, fair-skinned, brown-haired man. His face is very simplistic in design: his eyes are black dots, like those of his mother ; his ears are round with no visible anatomy; and his nose is a simple bump, with its bridge being a single line. His most defining feature is his top hat , which is tall and brown with a red lint, and covers his thin eyebrows. He wears a brown coat with its collar upturned over a dark orange shirt, brown pants, and a pair of dark green shoes with white soles. Underneath his top hat, he has a somewhat messy hairstyle.
As a young child in the Azran Legacy flashbacks, Layton wore no hat, a brown and orange coat, a white shirt, a green tie and brown pants. His shoes are unseen.
In the Miracle Mask flashbacks, when he was 17, Layton wore no hat, a red waistcoat with a white shirt, and a blue tie. He wore dark green pants with brown shoes. His hair was in an afro-like style.
When he was 27, during the Unwound Future flashbacks, Layton wore a red vest and cap with a white shirt. Occasionally, he also wore a black suit jacket. Claire gave him the top hat that he wears today.
In New World of Steam , his appearance for the most part is unchanged, save for a few minor alterations: His ears now have visible anatomy; his shirt has a visible opening and seven white buttons, with the first two unfastened; he has a black belt with a white buckle; and his shoes are now completely black with visible laces.

Layton is an English gentleman. He is incredibly brave, intelligent and athletic, as shown in all the games. He is always calm and is polite to everyone he meets. While he is friendly, he is on the quiet side and is usually reserved in his emotions. Harboring a great love for tea, and an even greater love for puzzles, he is the ideal gentleman. He has strong logical skills, which come into play on a regular basis. He is able to keep his calm, even in the worst situations (as seen in The Last Specter , when he encourages Luke to keep a clear mind after Arianna Barde gets arrested).
However so, he acts completely out of character in Cheerful Mystery . He seems to stay cool and calm, as of his usual nature, but sometimes, when talking to Luke (who is also out of character), he gets angry and fierce, to the other's disbelief.
As well as being brave and heroic, Layton also has a soft side. Most of his mysteries are based on him trying to help people. This is best seen at the end of Unwound Future.


Professor Layton

As shown by the ending credits, prior to the events of Mystery Room, Hilda wore a purple-colored set of (white) collared shirt, purple suit with longer sleeves than her current attire and matching skirt with white heels. She was shown to have already worn the pocket watch that she put around her waist in the events of Mystery Room.
For the events of Mystery Room, Hilda wore a vertically striped shirt that consisted of two colors, purple and white with the sleeves rolled up to her elbows. Her skirt is also of a matching style, still with the two color, but diagonal stripes. Hilda also wears a blue coat  draped on her shoulders, but is never shown with her arm actually inside the sleeves, and the same pocket watch still around her waist. Although during the end credits she was shown to wear a different outfit, just like Justin, Hilda has already worn this attire during the Forbodium confrontation as seen on flashback images when the player investigates case 009. This puts Alfendi as the only one to have changed his attire completely.
Her hairstyle, before and during the game remained consistent, still the same side-swept long, wavy blonde hair.

Hilda made her first appearance on case 007, when Lucy first overheard her conversation with Alfendi, asking him to go and investigate an abandoned house along with Lucy. Hilda was shown to dislike people who attempt to tap into conversations unwanted, as evidenced by how she reprimanded Lucy Baker for attempting to do so. She is a quite stubborn and persistent woman and stands for what she believes and relies heavily on logic and evidence, contrary to Lucy who often uses her instincts and gut feeling. However, during case 009, she was shown to not always rely on concrete evidence, shown by her assuming that Alfendi held Keelan on gunpoint solely based on Justin's yelling, and later turned this assumption into evidence despite not knowing the truth. This was later proven highly fatal and was one of the key points that helped to exonerate Alfendi.
Hilda often puts work above other things, with her not hesistating to arrest Alfendi on the suspicions of murder despite being friends with him, as evidence. In other words, she doesn't let personal affairs get in the way of her job. Hilda is also the type of "guilty-until-proven-innocent" type of person.
Superficially, as in the words of Alfendi, Hilda might be seen as opiniated, stubborn, and a bit bossy at first glance, but there's a softer side to her as well. When she revealed to Lucy the truth of Alfendi's personality disorder, she was shown to care for Alfendi as she told Lucy that she and Justin worked tirelessly to prove Alfendi's innocence, even though they failed to do so.


Professor Layton

Hoot is a purple great horned owl with white on his 'horn' tufts, facial disk, and chest, and bright yellow eyes. He also sports a golden band around his left leg.


Professor Layton

Ilyana is a curvaceous woman with fair skin, green eyes, and red hair. She sports two big bangs and a ponytail fastened by a big pink bow. She also sports thin eyebrows, long eyelashes, and orange lipstick and eyeshadow. She wears a purple dress, a lavender tippet, and red high heels with white buckles.

Ilyana's a flirtatious woman who interacts with people in a playful manner. As she means to attract people to her cabaret, she often strikes sultry poses at passersby. That, and she's always asking those who approach her if they want to see the shows hosted inside.
She's quite nice to Beluga , as he pays her and the cabaret in very good sums. Beluga has a soft spot for her and buys a multitude of gifts for her. But, unbeknownst to Beluga, she cares nothing for these gifts and makes money on the side by selling them to Dawson .


Professor Layton

Ingrid is a short old woman with white hair, a long nose, and blue-framed glasses. Her outfit comprises of an orange top with a brown coat, orange trousers, brown shoes, and an orange hat.

Ingrid is a very friendly, caring woman, but often forgetful when it comes to things like names. It takes her several attempts to correctly recall Layton's name, for instance.


Professor Layton

Alfendi has yellow eyes, fair skin, a rather long pointed nose, stubble on his chin and burgundy/wine hair.
Four years prior to the events of Mystery Room , Alfendi wore a dark gray suit and had his hair shorter.
During the game, Alfendi wears a striped blue and red sweater with a long white coat, as well as red and white sneakers on his feet. He seems to keep newspapers or blueprints in his pockets all the time. He keeps a long dark blue coat (as shown in the case selection screen), but apparently only wears it if he's not working (shown during denouement and credits of the game). When his "Placid" state is fronting, his hair is hung back in a low ponytail shape behind his neck, its color resembling a wine purple, while it dangles in a long, deep crimson fringe when his "Potty" state fronts, with his eyes barely visible. During his brief appearance in Layton Mystery Detective Agency: Kat's Mystery-Solving Files , Alfendi is depicted having a shorter nose compared to his first appearance.
He is considerably tall, as compared to other characters, he was often much taller than them. He's even a whole head taller than his partner, Lucy Baker.

Although Alfendi's original personality is unknown, according to Hilda Pertinax , who worked alongside him for an extended amount of time, said original personality was much closer in similarity to his later "Potty" persona, although it is unknown in what details the two differ from one another.
Following the intense and traumatic events at Forbodium Castle , Alfendi fell into a coma. While in that coma Justin is revealed to have attempted to brainwash Alfendi into forgetting that night. Alfendi disputes that this was the cause of his perceived split personality. (Referred to by Lucy Baker as " Placid Prof and Potty Prof "). "Potty" (named by fans as Al) is closer in personality to who he was before the shooting while "Placid" (named by fans as Fendi) is much more laid back. Fendi is seen more often leading Lucy to believe he was always like that. Sometimes when Al leaves control back to Fendi it causes Fendi to appear unwell (as seen in Cases 2 , 3 and 4 ).
Al is shown to be obsessed with the perfect crime, has a short temper and often threatens to cut people's tongues. His depiction of gruesome crimes as a work of art unnerves people around him. He's rude, immature, sarcastic and gets quite mad when you get the wrong piece of evidence in a case. He's shown critiquing and threatening people with violence. The kind of guy you wouldn't mind pinning a murder on. Florence Sich phrased it as Lucy Baker would be safe as long as a criminal was around for him to direct his anger and immaturity at. If not, run. Later it's shown he is not violent and in fact never has been. He's never carried out any of his threats. Al turns out to have no social skills and it's a wonder he bagged Hilda Pertinax who clearly does. He is shown to respect when people stand up to him, appreciating when Lucy Baker does.
Fendi on the other hand is laid back, calm. In the words of Hilda Pertinax , "quiet, considerate, even meek". He still loves crimes though, in the manga when Lucy Baker asks him why does he say he solves cases he replies that he enjoys puzzles. Indeed in the game he's shown to be single minded when it comes to a case focusing on nothing else but its solution. He is polite, mature, a little rude if you bring him the wrong evidence and implied to be a slightly worse detective than Al. As seen in Case 2 (A Bungled Burglary) where he gets stuck on the wrong pieces of evidence. He dislikes going out (possibly because of being shot). Generally quite a down to earth guy you wouldn't pin a murder on.
Both sides of Alfendi enjoy ready made food as that neither of them cook. They are both into women indicated by Alfendi's ex girlfriend Hilda Pertinax and the way he pockets a magazine of some swimsuit models. Neither of them show particular care towards their health, they spend most of their time in the office and are seen to be eating significantly less than Lucy Baker . They both enjoy Lucy Baker 's company and are willing to risk their own life to save her. Fendi does when he gets kidnapped by Diane Makepeace as she threatened to blow up Lucy Baker's house, or a hospital or a school. Alfendi is not shown to have any friends after the Forbodium incident so him and Lucy fall into a close bond. Al and Fendi both seem to be aware of what the other does while in control of the body and share the same memories except when it comes to Forbodium Castle where Al remembers what happened and Fendi doesn't.
Many fans have diagnosed Alfendi with Dissociative Identity Disorder (also abbreviated as DID), but this theory is never confirmed in canon.


Professor Layton

Inspector Hastings is a bulky, middle-aged man with blond hair combed backwards and thick eyebrows. He has small black eyes and a large, bill-like pointy nose. He wears a dark orange overcoat with a very large collar and rolled-up sleeves over a white shirt and a blue necktie. He also wears a belt on his overcoat, light blue pants, and black shoes.

Hastings is way more friendly and cooperative than previous inspectors in the series, as he often accompanies the protagonists to solve mysteries.
Despite his fame on Scotland Yard, and just like Chelmey and Grosky, he is quite incompetent on his job, and the cases he is assigned to always need the help of Katrielle Layton to be solved. He also has the tendency to jump into conclusions early when investigating a crime, similarly to Chelmey.
Hastings is very caring for his wife Felicity , but his job keeps him so busy that they can barely spend any time together.


Professor Layton

Janice has her hair in a low ponytail, wears a simple lavender dress with a purple pendant that Melina had left her before she died and pecan brown Mary Jane heels. When she was singing onstage in 'The Eternal Kingdom' opera, she wore a white and gold gown and a crown. In the present day of Eternal Diva , she wears a white dress with a short blue jacket, along with the pendant.


Professor Layton

Jarvis wears a red long-sleeved top with a white waistcoat, dark brown trousers, and dark purple shoes. His hair is blond and short, while his nose is quite wide.

Jarvis is generally quite cheerful and friendly in nature. He's a close friend of Ramon's, hence his concern about Ramon's mysterious disappearance.


Professor Layton

Jasmine has black hair. She wears a red hood, white shirt, green jacket, and a blue skirt.


Professor Layton

Descole is a tall, fair-skinned man who wears a dark grey suit with grey lapels over a white dress shirt with a dark grey tie and dark brown shoes that're white at the toes. The ends of his dress shirt are puffy and stick out the cuffs of his suit. Over his suit, he wears a grey cape, a dark brown mantle with gold lining, a purple ribbon to fasten them, and a white feather boa around his neck. On his face, he wears a white mask; despite there being eyeholes in the mask, his eyes are never shown, and instead show nothing but blackness. And on his head, he wears a black hat similar to a tricorn hat but with a higher crown. His "hair" is actually two grey pieces of cloth connected to either side of the interior of his hat that cover the sides of his head in an earmuff-like fashion. His actual hair is short, light brown, and can be seen from the back of his head.

For the most part, Descole is a cold and calculating man with who puts a great deal of thought into his schemes. However, his biggest flaw is his inability to keep his temper; if things do not go according to plan for him, he will gradually lose his cool and become loud and belligerent. These outbursts often result in destruction on a massive scale due to him usually choosing to destroy whatever it is that is causing him so much anger, such as his choice to destroy Misthallery with the Master Specter when he failed to find the Golden Garden, and his choice to destroy Ambrosia with the Detra-Gigant when the kingdom would not rise from the ocean.
Despite this monstrous side of him, Descole still possesses enough humanity to at least make sure people involved in his schemes do not get hurt. This characteristic is what exposes him in Last Specter , for when he is disguised as Doland Noble , he corrects Luke’s predictions on the places where the Specter will strike, so said places can be evacuated beforehand.
Extremely clever, he focuses mainly on science, but dabbles in archaeology, parkour running, and several types of armed and unarmed combat.


Professor Layton

Joanie is a young, fair-skinned girl with short, brown hair, blush stickers, and black, beady eyes. She wears a long-sleeved lavender shirt, a lavender collar fastened around her neck with a red button, a short pink skirt, white stockings, and brown shoes.

She has a straight and fearless attitude which makes her popular in the northeast part of Folsense. She loves cute things.


Professor Layton

Kamilla has a complexion similar to Katrielle, though it can be seen that she has been drawn to look much older, around middle-aged. Her hair is olive-brown and is curly just like Kat's; she also shares the same eyes as her daughter. She wears a simple deep blue cardigan, a light yellow dress and some brown shoes.


Professor Layton

She has brown hair and black eyes. She wears a white shirt, a red jacket, an orange dress, and blue shoes.


Professor Layton

Katia wears a dark green, lilac and white medium length dress with a light pink jacket. Katia has lilac shoes with darker purple heels. Katia wears a necklace that was given to her by her grandmother Sophia. She greatly resembles Sophia, but her eyes seem to come from her grandfather.

Katia is a sweet and kind girl. All of Dropstone regards her highly, and she has many friends. Her mother's premature death had an effect on her life, since Sophia essentially took her mother's place, so she was devastated when she died. She was quite close with her father, but they drifted apart in the year following Sophia's death.

London Life [ ]

A reserved young woman who obviously values her privacy.


Professor Layton

Kat is a young woman with long brown curly hair, rosy cheeks, and blue eyes. Usually, she wears a red dress with a black bow, black leggings, and blue shoes, and adds a tan coat and a hairband with a top hat on it when in the field. She also has a wide range of other outfits, which can be changed in-game. To sleep, she wears a pale yellow nightgown.

Katrielle is an eccentric but humourous young lady, with an active imagination in full employ when solving puzzles and crimes. She relies largely on what she refers to as her "miraculous instinct" to solve mysteries. Ernest claims that this "miraculous instinct" involves "logical but instinctive inferences", however some spectators like Sherl prefer to credit Kat's success to dumb luck. The actual extent to which Katrielle is consciously or even subconsciously using deductive or abductive reasoning behind a facade of "instinct" or carefree stumbling, is largely unclear and ambiguous. Although there are notable times in which Katrielle demonstrates that she purposefully puts on a facade of "stumbling around"; this can most notably be seen in Case 08 of Mystery Journey , in which she directly purports this as her method to Emiliana Perfetti and Inspector Hastings in that particular case, as the three of them are currently working together.
Nevertheless, it is clear that she does follow "blind instincts" all the same, and often does what her own interests tell her.  The cases she tackles also cause her to often posit highly imaginative or complex explanations for mysteries,  as these end up being the realities behind her cases--she seems acutely aware of this trend within her detective duties (or perhaps even the world around her), as she is keen to postulate that "the truth is stranger than fiction". Due to this, alongside Katrielle's outward carefree presentation of her detective work, some, such as Emiliana Perfetti, do not take her seriously as a detective.
Katrielle often appears unflappable in the face of the most bizarre mysteries, not being impressed or surprised at all that Sherl was talking, and speaking very nonchalantly about her father's past cases. She also does not seem to question her father's puzzles but is nevertheless close to him. Despite this, she can be rather intuitive, much like her father, and uses her intelligence to her advantage.

Katrielle's temper

However, in the anime, as connected to the game progressing, Katrielle becomes quick-tempered which Ernest is terrified by Katrielle's rage.
Katrielle also displays an insatiable appetite, being able to put away a large dinner and still have room for dessert, not unlike Luke Triton. She often fixated on foods, especially sweets and desserts, for which she seems to have a particular affinity, and often makes unwieldy comparisons between them and the mysteries she solves.


Professor Layton

Keats has mostly purple fur, with white around his mouth and on his underbelly. He has two whiskers that curl at the ends, giving the appearance of a moustache. The inside of his ears are pink (as well as his paw pads), and he is always seen wearing a collar with a giant gold question mark tag on it.


Professor Layton

His hair had two different shades, the majority blonde, and his sideburns brown. Above the temples, two strands of blonde hair reach down, right above the eyes. He had no visible eyebrows so he had a large, jutting forehead. His nose is large, and pointed. His eyes have a somewhat pale yellow tint, and had dark circles under his eyes. He wore a large, black trench coat, with a orange undercoat. He also wore brown, baggy pants, with brown shoes.


Professor Layton

Kira is a slender young woman with light skin and brown eyes. She wears her brown hair in a braid under a white kerchief. She also wears a pink dress, a white apron, and black boots. She usually carries a basket of daisies.

Kira acts sweet until she is antagonized, when she is fierce and determined. When driven to extreme stress she acts as if she is manic. She is often seen trying to convince others to buy some of her flowers.


Professor Layton

He has white hair and black eyes. He wears a white shirt under a brown jacket, along with blue pants and red shoes.


Professor Layton

Leo is a little boy with dark red neck-length hair and brown eyes. He wears a white shirt with black and orange stripes, an olive green backpack, matching shorts, white socks, and brown dress shoes.

Leo's most notable trait is his huge fanatism for the superhero Ratman.


Professor Layton

Bronev has grey-blonde hair in a rough style. He has a beard and mustache. His eyes are a deep chestnut, but are usually hidden by his sunglasses. He sports a red shirt and over that a blue jacket with a white handkerchief in his left-top pocket. He has very thin legs on which he wears white trousers and brown shoes. When he was younger, his hair was brown and he lacked facial hair and his sunglasses.

Bronev may be an affable gentleman like Layton but he appears to be bossy and is the leader of the sinister Targent agency. Not much is known concerning him, but he is ruthless towards his underlings, including Leonard Bloom when the two discussed the Mask of Order . He is also very determined in his goals, wishing to utilize the legacy of the Azran civilization even if he resorts to morally questionable means.


Professor Layton

Bloom has tan skin, platinum-white hair, and black eyes. He wears a purple shirt under a green jacket, with dark-gray pants and green shoes. He is also quite thin.

Leonard Bloom is described as a calm and orderly person, emphasizing his ability to remain focused on the task at hand. Bloom is mentally intelligent well beyond his years, already taking charge of the Monte d'Or's task force alongside Inspector Grosky. He is apparently on the same educational level as Layton, since Bloom was one of the first people to suspect the Masked Gentleman's miracles as nothing more than elaborate tricks. Detective Bloom's overall persona is still a mystery, except for the fact that he is both resourceful and loyal. Bloom is also cunning and somewhat patient, especially when dealing with Chief Inspector Sheffield . He is also extremely observant of other people; Bloom knew that letting Professor Layton solve the mystery of Monte d'Or would not only help him achieve his own goals, but also put his agency's agenda in jeopardy.


Professor Layton

Jakes wears a white shirt and blue tie with a yellow-orange jacket and hat.

Despite being chief of police in Misthallery and completely trusted, Jakes seems to abuse his position. He is very greedy, as he only worked for Descole for the money.


Professor Layton

Lila is a tall, thin girl with wavy, light red hair and big blue eyes. She wears a long, blue and white polka-dot dress, purple heels and a purple pearl necklace.

She is an excellent source for gossip and knows a lot about people because of her love of rumors. She is also a very curious person.


Professor Layton

She has straight, blonde hair and black eyes. She wears a red dress and red shoes.

She is very mature for her age, and has a very sweet personality. Lili appears to be very responsible, as she was trusted to travel by train alone on a visit to her grandmother.


Professor Layton

Linda is a young girl with black eyes and blue hair tied in two braids. She wears a light purple jumper and skirt.


Professor Layton

Lionel is a short man with short blue hair. He wears a blue shirt with red pants and a green pair of shoes.


Professor Layton

She is a young lady with long, pink, sideways hair, thin eyebrows, and blue eyes. She wears a black hat with a white trim and a rose attatched to it, a grey, short-sleeved jacket with black sleeves, black gloves, a grey skirt, red stockings, and black shoes with a white flower on each.

Liza is generally a sweet girl, who is rather mature and strong-willed when it comes to her duties as a dragon she inherited. Following her per parents death she started to spend all her time locked inside her residence. Due to this she became an incredibly isolated and lonely person, to the point where she became desperate for any human interaction.

Liza loves the occult and all things supernatural, particularly ghosts. Gaining friends in like-minded occult fans dissolved her of her loneliness, and allowed her to start living a much happier life. As the game was connected to the anime, Liza's true personality will revealed.


Professor Layton

He wears an all-in-one striped weightlifter's suit. He has orange shoes. He also has red hair with a beard and mustache of the same color. He is very large.


Professor Layton

Loosha resembles a large Manatee/plesiosaur. She is a minty blue color, and she has blue spots on her belly.

Loosha is playful and friendly. She is rather intelligent and loyal, but before she met the Barde siblings, she was rather lonesome as she was the only one of her kind.


Professor Layton

Louis wears a purple roll neck top, with a red jacket over the top, which has most of his top underneath. Louis also wears a white pair of trousers with black shoes. He wears an unusual pair of glasses and his hair is black in a similar style to Scraps ; it just has "a bit more lift" to it.


Professor Layton

Lucille wears her hair in a bun, and wears a pink jumper over a white shirt, with a blue skirt. In Azran Legacy (30 years before) flashback she was shown with purple coat and blue scarf, but she still appears elderly.

Lucille is a kind and caring person. She worries greatly about her husband and son, often sending one off to find the other. According to her profile, its because of her that Layton is the polite gentleman he is today.


Professor Layton

Lucy is a young girl with shoulder length brown hair parted on one side and large blue eyes. She wears a yellow shirt, a light orange cardigan with two buttons, a white pleated skirt, knee-length navy blue socks, and brown shoes.

Lucy is noted to be quite normal compared to the other strange characters that reside in St Mystere. Despite her childlike way of speaking and her apparent young age, she is adept at both solving puzzles and coming up with difficult puzzles herself.


Professor Layton

Lucy has fair skin and light brown short hair with longer sides framing her rounded face and bangs covering her forehead. Her eyes are an oval shape and colored a deep crimson.
She usually wears a green blouse that resembles a military jacket with golden buttons. It has belts and buckles as accessories on the hem of the sleeves and on her hips, on which she puts her Scotland Yard badge. She also wears knee-length white trousers and, beneath them, grey stockings which cover her calves. Her shoes are rounded white and brown pumps with white shoelaces, and her hat is a salmon coloured newsboy beret cap, which sometimes moves slightly when she jumps in surprise.

Lucy acts highly optimistic and confident, never shying away from her mistakes and troubles, always willing to aim for better and trying her best to solve any problem or crime. As Alfendi himself commented, Lucy possesses proven good intuition, and displays great curiosity and willingness to learn new things. She is also very forthright in her expression, being very honest and direct about her thoughts and feelings, to the point of coming across blunt or incorrigible in certain situations.
Additionally, she sometimes displays a level of stubbornness and recklessness, often jumping to conclusions and forging ahead without considering the risks and dangers. Alfendi once described her as a "daredevil" - a statement worded without compliment.
Lucy exhibits a strong sense of empathy, even when threatened with grievous danger or spoken to rudely by those with which she empathizes. As Alfendi would later mockingly proclaim, Lucy never fails to 'see the good side of people'. This was later displayed clearly as she believed Diane was simply driven insane by her father's death despite literally receiving death threats from her and held captive before.
Lucy also has a tendency to rely more on her instincts and gut feeling, as seen by how she tend to investigate cases. This is both her weakness and strong suit- as this is how she was able to reveal the truth about the Forbodium killings despite not being there four years ago and aided her in defending Alfendi's innocence, but also at the same time, withholds her from solving cases quicker as she often uses her feelings more than actual evidence- Alfendi often had to remind her to pay attention to case notes and witness statements. This is the opposite to some of Alfendi's deducting techniques, as he often uses logic more and relies concrete evidence, but similar to Lucy, he also sometimes, uses his gut feeling and deduction. He even encouraged Lucy to listen to her gut feeling during the earliest cases, saying that it is an important part in investigation- and he was proven right later.


Professor Layton

Luke is a pre-teen boy, usually depicted wearing a blue-grey cardigan and flat cap, contrasting light brown hair, with peach skin, rosy cheeks and a wisp of hair hanging between his black eyes. He resembles his mother Brenda .
For the first trilogy, Luke wears a white-collar shirt, blue-grey cardigan, viridian shorts with brown falling suspenders, white socks, brown Mary Janes and a blue-grey flat cap and has light brown hair. He also carries a large, brown leather satchel that contains a notebook.
In Last Specter , he wore a long-sleeved white shirt with blue shorts and green suspenders. He retained the satchel, shoes, socks and blue cap, but in the prequel trilogy, it has a little button on the top of it and is slightly taller. During Miracle Mask , Luke also wears a blue waistcoat over his shirt with viridian shorts and during Azran Legacy , he also wears a blue-grey cardigan.
Like his mentor, Luke very rarely takes his cap off; he is seen without it only four times during the series. In Eternal Diva , there is a scene in which Oswald knocks it off, he wakes up without it on during a cutscene of Miracle Mask , he is shown not wearing it during a credits image of Unwound Future , and also another credits image in Last Specter.
As seen in the Miracle Mask , Luke also wears light blue pajamas at night.
In the Layton Mystery Detective Agency anime, Luke wears a blue coat over an orange vest and white shirt and has light blue pants and brown shoes. His cap has been replaced with a blue fedora. He is slightly taller but still shorter compared to Layton's height.

Luke is a studious, sensible, caring, slightly shy, pure and gold hearted and cheerful boy. He loves to resolve any kind of puzzles, and he often has an optimist point of view about things. Since he was born with the ability to speak with animals, he gets along with them easily except if they are controlled by someone else, as in the case of the wolves in Eternal Diva. By the age of thirteen, it is commented that his abilities are enough to rival those of adults. He has a huge amount of respect for his mentor and best friend the professor Layton, and he wants to be like him. Luke tries to learn Layton's teachings and longs to be a gentleman like Layton. While he is polite, heartfelt good and well-mannered all the time, due to being still a kid, he is prone to lose his temper or act imprudently. Despite that, he tends to be very self-conscious, and is always ready to correct his mistakes. Similar to most children his age, he can let out a cheeky comment when he needs to and he also loves to eat, in his own words, "has a legendary appetite". Luke loves to be Layton's sidekick in the adventures where they go to resolve mysteries.
Because Luke has tremendous respect and cares so much for Layton, he tends to become mildly insecure that he seems to be dependent on him fearing that he might let him down to the point that when Layton leaves Luke to run an errand on his own, Luke worries and hesitates however on more than one occasion he has shown himself to be independent even without Layton and that his is only a form of mild insecurity but not dependence and has been proven: even before he met him again as a "grown-up" it was Luke with the help of Toppy (and Descole behind the scenes) who organized the evacuation of people in Last Specter, he tried to protect Janice in Eternal Diva and to save her, he first sacrificed his life for the world in Azran Legacy, in the crossover he tries to catch the mysterious individual at the market, he has twice driven three machines by himself: the false specter machinery, has showed everyone the Labyrinthia machinery and the new machinery in the New World of Steam, although under Layton's directives, for the first two, on where to find them, in the anime he demonstrated many acts of independence and resourcefulness. The fact that he cares so much for the professor is further highlighted in Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney, when he believes that Layton has been turned into a golden statue and that there was no remedy at the time. Phoenix comments that he heard Luke fall asleep sobbing, and the next day Luke testifies against Maya in a blind attempt to bring the case to justice, despite their previous friendship and during the trial, he regularly had emotional outbursts due to grief. In Unwound Future, he gets upset when he thinks Layton does not think they are everlasting friends but is quickly corrected by him that he did not mean it. Later, Luke expresses his concern that he will no longer be friends with Layton forever, as he will have to move to America with his parents, but Layton reassures him that theirs is an eternal and true friendship that not even distance, time, or the departure of either of them will ever break, and that they both share a deep bond that will always bring them together, confirming that Layton does not consider Luke to be just a friend, but a best friend and godson on par with the writer's friendship and bond with the boy.
Luke is also open with his emotions and has no problem showing them. He is prone to cry whenever he feels sad or has to say goodbye to one of his friends as happened with Aurora, Emmy, and Layton, and he also tends to get emotional in front of something really very beautiful like Janice's voice, and her performance, and Melina's "goodbye." During Unwound Future, Luke shows concern for his future after finding out that he has to move to America, which means he will not see Layton again for a long time. This made him sad to the point of running away, but after Layton assured him that theirs is an eternal and true friendship in which even time, distance and departure can never break and separate because of the deep bond between them, he is happy again. Luke is proud to be Layton's apprentice and proclaims that "no puzzle can stop Layton's apprentice." Because of his good manners and pure and good heart, he has a strong sense of justice and morality. Luke is also kind to people and likes to make new friends; moreover, he repeatedly shows that he is able to forgive those who have hurt him and become attached to these people, as happened with Randall, Emmy, Clive and Descole. Luke is also very fond of the professor who considers him a second father as well as a mentor and best friend, and the same goes for the professor who loves him on par with a biological son to the extent that he calls him: "my boy" (an appellation given only to people toward whom one feels such a strong and deep affection and bond that it is equal to that of a son), and many people during their adventures mistake them for father and son: even Descole in Azran Legacy, says that it does not matter much to him if Luke gets hurt (which is proven not true since it protects him afterwards), but he is aware that it is important to Layton, which gives us evidence of how close they both are to each other.
In addition to respecting and caring for Layton, Luke is very fond of Flora , as evidenced by their interactions in Diabolical Box and Unwound Future . Although they bicker from time to time, their relationship is usually very pleasant and brotherly. Luke enjoys showing her around the fair in Dropstone in Diabolical Box and sympathizes with her distress over being left behind in Unwound Future . Both times that Flora gets kidnapped, Luke is deeply upset and angry, and he actively tries to prevent it from happening in Unwound Future . The two children are best friends sharing a brotherly bond.

Chai is a man of unknown age and nationality. He appears to be somewhat malnourished with a spinal problem that prevents him from standing up straight and gives him a hunched appearance. He has several missing teeth, no hair on his head (including eyebrows) and often has bloodshot eyes.
He is often seen wearing an open iris coloured martial arts jacket, a pair of frayed denim shorts that are too large for him and done up with a simple belt and arm and leg bandage wraps.


Project 575

Chokkina, much like his fellow commanders Gooseka and Parpalin , has a head shaped like a hand signal used in Rock-Paper-Scissors. In Chokkina's case his head is shaped like the 'scissors' symbol, or a hand giving the peace sign, with his eyes being on the index and middle finger, like stalks.
Chokkina wears a green and red outfit in both appearances, and is slimmer than his fellow commanders, lacking the muscle mass of Gooseka or Parpalin's bulk. The major difference between the two versions is Chokkina seems to lose the mouth he had in his original appearance in Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX and his eyes are now red.

Dr, Bad-Boon is a baboon wearing a monocle, lab coat and a black cloak, pointed shoes (with wheels in the heels) and fingerless gloves.
Unlike the other Super Monkey Ball characters his art style gives him much longer limbs and proportions, very different eyes, a longer snout and small ears. He does however retain the same ear swirls as the other characters in the series.


Project 575

Dr. Curien was once a researcher at DBR Corporation, and praised for his aggressive leadership that lead to the creation of the BioReactor, a machine capable of rewriting genetic code.
However as his beloved son, Daniel Curien was discovered to be suffering from an incurable fatal disease, Dr. Curien began to become desperate, frantically researching a way to remove the barriers between life and death in order to save Daniel , and driving himself to the brink of insanity as he did so.
His research eventually paid off, having managed to create three gene samples, one of which saved Daniel's life. This should have been a happy momentus occasion, but Curien's mind had snapped, and he soon began to use the BioReactor to create strange monsters with the intent of wiping out humanity.


Project 575

In the 16-bit era, Eggman was very obese, but still seemed very athletic. This is seen in many of the games, as there is almost always a point where Sonic chases him, and Eggman seems to stay ahead just long enough to get to his next weapon or escape vehicle. He appears to be of Caucasian race, and he always wore a red shirt with black pants with two white buttons on his front, white gloves, and an unusually small yellow cape. He also wears dark blue pince-nez glasses which hide his eyes, and his video game counterpart's eyes have (almost) never been seen with the exception of Sonic Advance where his eyes are comically seen briefly after being struck, and in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) where they can be seen behind his glasses in some cutscenes revealing them to be blue, they are also visible in a comical way in some Sonic animated shorts set in the classic timeline. Despite his spherical body, he has incongruously thin legs. Despite these unusual features, his most noticeable feature is his large, fancy, multi-pointed mustache.
Starting with Sonic Adventure , Eggman became somewhat taller, and became more egg-shaped compared to the balloon shape he had before. His attire took on a different appearance as well, while still retaining a red-yellow-black theme. A pair of goggles can also be seen on his head. After Eggman's appearance in the new Sonic the Hedgehog game, his look has changed again (he bears a startling resemblance to Gerald Robotnik, his grandfather). In effect, he is much less obese (however, his stomach is still visible underneath his clothing), and looks more like an actual human would, presumably for purposes of realism, but still wears his post-Adventure outfit with an additional "turtle-neck" collar, without the goggles atop his head that he has worn since Sonic Adventure , and still sports his massive trademark mustache. Also, the four golden slabs on his coat are now strange "bottle cap"-like objects. His eyes can barely be seen under his glasses although they have grayish-blue irises, red pupils and black sclera. They also have purple eyelids rather than green in early games. Eggman quickly returned to his Sonic Adventure appearance starting with Sonic Rivals .
When Sonic the Hedgehog was released, there was originally little to no exposure of Dr. Eggman/Robotnik's original Japanese design in western regions, in the original North American and European artworks for the games and media throughout the 1990s, his appearance is relatively the same as the Japanese one but was given some notable changes which were that his blue glasses were replaced with completely black eyes (which was likely done to give him a sinister look) and didn't wear any gloves (save for in the US promotional comic and the first issue of Sonic the Comic before they vanished after the following story). along with having a curvier moustache (Save for that he had the three triangular styled one in the first issue of Sonic the Comic and the Virgin books), which was sometimes seen to be orange like in the cover of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 giving him a resemblance to his later Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog portrayal which might have loosely been based off the former as he has black eyes and an orange moustache. In the latter cover he also has a beard which is nowhere to be seen in the actual game. Some rare American artworks would also depict his occasional beady looking eyes as blue. Him having black eyes in these original western products was probably the reason why the original Sonic the Hedgehog cartoons gave him black eyes.
In the original cartoons he had a different though still loosely similar look, he still decently represented the features seen on his game counterpart such as having a long crazy moustache, a bald head, a fat body, and a pink nose, and his attire keeping the colors of red, black, and yellow. His black eyes were in addition reused from his design seen on the American artworks for the original games, albeit added with red irises as opposed to keeping them empty.
In the original Sonic cartoon under the name The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog from 1993 he is a comically obese human with a ragged orange mustache, a conical head, a drooping pink nose, conjoined black eyes (just like Sonic's) with red irises and black pupils, a round body and wiry legs. His signature bodysuit is red, black, and yellow crossed with a circular buckle in the center, gray tights and a pair of gray gloves with metal gauntlets. On rare occasions, he even wears a yellow cape (similar to his one he is seen wearing in the games) to go with his signature attire.
In the Sonic the Hedgehog television series from 1993 his appearance was slightly based off his one seen in the previous show, such as his crossed bodysuit etc. he was a tall obese human man with a light complexion. He had a bald, conical head, a dark orange long mustache and black eyes with red irises. Robotnik's left arm was partially roboticized. Also, in the place of his ears, he for some reason has small metallic stubs. Strangely enough, he is also shown to have five uvulas and a hairy tongue, and contrary to their normal, white appearance, his teeth are borderline brown and yellow, with his mouth big enough to house the head of his sidekick named Snively. His signature attire was a red, black, and yellow bodysuit, with grey leggings; black-and-red boots; wide, red shoulder pads; a black sleeve on his normal arm; a yellow cape; and grey gauntlet gloves.
His design from the latter would later be carried over to 1999's Sonic Underground , though he was given minor changes to the appearance of changing the lower half of his outfit from black to red, the shoulder pads, soles and toe caps of his shoes from red to yellow, also his cape changed from yellow to red, his collar being orange instead of yellow, and completely covering the skin of his right bicep.

Doctor Eggman is a short-tempered, loud, pompous Overlander whose goal is to take over the world and create his own nation, Eggmanland, ruled by the Eggman Empire. Originally, this was attempted by imprisoning the animal populations inside robots to serve his every whim, but now he has a tendency to build the biggest, strongest weapon he can think of, and threaten nations with it. His plans have always failed however, due to Sonic the Hedgehog. He has designed and built several large airships, such as the Egg Carrier and a space station called the Death Egg (a tribute to the Death Star). He has also designed and built countless robots, a number of which resemble either himself, or his longtime rival, Sonic (and sometimes, Sonic's friends). In some media, Eggman often declares his deep hatred of Sonic with his unmistakable catchphrase "I HATE THAT HEDGEHOG!".
Despite his intelligence, Eggman is terribly immature, prone to emotional fits and breaking things when he loses. The Sonic Heroes instruction manual states that he is "a romanticist, a feminist, and a self-professed. Sadly, his charms are difficult to spot through the abominable laughter that accompanies his maniacal declarations of world domination". He also seems to be very egotistical; a vast number of his weapons and robots are built in his likeness, and his production logo is a crude depiction of his own face. Although Eggman generally tries to rule the world, he is quite willing to help save it from total destruction. This happens on occasion when threats greater than himself, such as Perfect Chaos, Metal Sonic, Black Doom, or Solaris gain control over him. However, Eggman is still a dangerous foe to both Sonic and his friends. It seems that he likes Chao, as he wants the Chaotix to save several of them in Sonic Heroes (though this could be because he wanted Metal Sonic to be unable to copy Chaos' data within them), and as he has a Chao Garden of his own in his Cryptic Castle base in Shadow the Hedgehog. In Sonic Adventure, he also has a teleport panel that leads to another Chao Garden on the Egg Carrier.
In the Sonic TV series, Robotnik says "Snooping as usual, I see?" to his robots, but sounds like he is saying "Snoo PINGAS usual, I see?" due to a slight mispronunciation. This has led to a wave of YouTube Poops that exploit Robotnik's extravagant personality.

Dr. Starline is a mobian platypus with three long strands of hair combed over to his right side, with a streak of dark grey in his hair that matches his eyeshadow and bill. He wears a pair of orange tinted pince-nez glasses that rest atop his bill, a purple satin puffy armed shirt with a lighter purple waistcoat over the top done up with a singular swirly patterned button. His hands are webbed, and he is often seen with a glove over his left hand, which often contains his current gemstone of power. Beneath that glove his hand has been scarred from an accident whilst studying the Warp Topaz. Finally he wears a pair of boots with gold spurs that allow him to attack with a highly venomous poison. Unlike most platypus characters, Dr. Starline has a tail more akin to Knuckles the Echidna than the typical beaver like one.

Project 575

Golden Silver is a tall, menacing android created slightly in the image of a Gunstar Dynasty member that is much taller than the Gunstars. In Guardian Heroes, he sported a more skeleton-like appearance. Most of his body is gold with silver appendages, fingers, feet, and head. His hands are also built to mirror a Gunstar’s fingerless gloves.
He also has a single pupil (as opposed to two eyes), and a silver cylinder separating his torso from waist to mirror a Gunstar’s belt. His lower legs and feet are also designed to match a Gunstar Dynasty member’s knee-high boots and has a depression in his lower chest.
Golden Silver also has a silver circular circular engine on his back.

Golden Silver is very cruel and remorseless, possibly allowing Gunstar Green to sacrifice himself to let Green die.

There is a large white scar across the right eye. He wears a white collar around his neck and black gloves with silver designs on the backs, covering his sharp claws. He also wears pointed, metal and black hi-tops, with his personal infinity symbol engraved on the red soles.
After abandoning his old identity, Infinite began wearing a silver-colored mask with white and black circular patterns on the inside of the ears, with the right ear being black with white circular patterns and the left being white with black circular patterns. While his left eye is visible through a red visor, his right eye is covered by a black lightning bolt-shaped piece, similar to an eyepatch, that is connected to his mask's right ear, which glows red when he uses his power.
Infinite possesses the finalized version of the Phantom Ruby copies that is fused to his chest. When Infinite channels the power of the gemstone, he can surround himself in a red aura, with red, glitch-like pixel particles scattered throughout his body.

Janken is always depicted as a towering individual who is many times larger than the people of Planet Aries and even his own minions.
In the original official Japanese artwork, Janken is depicted as being towering but muscularly built with peach skin.
Later artwork depicts him as a stouter individual with orange skin.
Miracle World DX depicts him as a huge obese individual with peach skin, large enough to hold Princess Lora in a single hand, although his in game sprite is only just over twice the size of Alex and Lora.
All of these depictions however have him wearing a very similar outfit with the letter J signed on his front, a single horned helmet and an eyemask that his glowing pupil-less eyes appear from behind.

Neff's original form is that of a white skinned but muscular, bald sinister looking mage wrapped in a purple cloak. He has sunkern eyes and a sinister grin.
His most famous form is his Van Vander form, which transforms him into a large muscular anthromorphic rhino form, similar to the Centurion's own beast forms. In this form he is purple/magenta (Arcade version) or white (Mega Drive/Genesis version) and wears golden shoulder pads, wrist guards and golden bracers around his legs.
Aside from these two forms, Neff can also transform into:

Aggar , a brown colored rather jolly and placid looking demon made from rotting corpses. He has a pair of little pointed horns, a pair of muscular arms sitting atop a pile of bones and rotting flesh. Octeyes , a strange alien looking plant like form that contains an unlimited supply of eyeballs that it shoots from it's flat looking 'face'. It's roots are ocotpus like and small poisonous looking purple flowers sprout from them. Moldy Snail , a half snail, half salamander creature. The salamander half has a spiked horn upon it's nose, a fin like protrusion that juts from the back of it's head, a pair of small claws and scaly beard like horns from his chin. The snail half is a spiral shaped shell with gnobbly protrusions. Crocodile Wyrm , a blue/red(depending on the version) large headed crocodile creature with a sun like supernova orb sitting in it's empty stomach. It's hands, tail, feet and head wrap around the supernova core. It's body seems to be a black hole from which multiple supernova balls come forward. King Ogre (Famicom version) Kraken (Famicom version) Great Demon (Famicom version)

Project 575

Reala's signature colors are red and black. In the original Saturn game, Reala had a purple ruffled collar, yellow claw-like talons for fingers and a vest that appears to be open with a diamond patterned chest. He also has a red and black-striped jester's hat that is, presumably, a part of his body and not, in fact, a hat.
Reala was redesigned for NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams ; sporting a mask called a Persona , a symbol of loyalty to Wizeman. It is gold with a pink jewel in the center with black feathers on the edges. His vest is closed over his chest and has a flame/swirl pattern. He wears red arm guards and hip-plates, which both have a flame-like design on them and gold trim. He also wears dark brown fingerless gloves and dark brown bandages on his wrists. As in the original game, his signature colors are red and black. His boots are mostly dark red, with some bright red flame patterns and a single bright red stripe interspaced in the middle of the boots. Although he keeps his red jester's hat from the original game, it now has dark red stripes instead of black stripes; it also appears to be slightly less sharply angled than the first game. He also wears dark brown bandages on his legs, although they are mostly concealed by his boots. He also, for some reason, has pale pink nails and a pink ruff on his neck.

Reala is cold, hard, and orderly. In contrast to NiGHTS' free-spirited nature.
