Jun. 23rd, 2012 11:10 pmCharacter name: Vera Misham
Character fandom: Ace Attorney
Version: V1
Canon point: pre-trial
Background: Who's There?
Personality: At the beginning of her case, Vera is deathly afraid of talking to people: Apollo and Trucy are waiting 20 minutes to talk to their client before they realize she's been there the whole time, hiding just beside the window, and there's several occasions in which Vera overreacts to new people or surprises in various bad ways (including fainting). She responds very little and focuses on her nails. She's been like this most of her life due to a childhood kidnapping attempt. When responding about something that's "happy" or "sad", she simply draws a face on the notebook with an appropriate expression, her own face remaining blank; the only emotion that seems to really show through is fear. She's not unfriendly though; once Trucy shows interest in her nail polish, Vera offers her some (and this is her magic charm), and she gets more talkative about the Gramarye troupe. Magic excites her and though she understands that what the Gramaryes do is stage magic, she seems to hold a belief in deeper magic, from her comparisons of Kristoph to both devil and angel, to her lucky charm, to her allusion to the Gramaryes as she describes her own change in the ending. From the beginning of the trial she expresses regret at what happened to her father because of the forgeries, saying she's never had a good constitution or personality. From this and flashbacks of her as a child, it seems like she's never had good self-esteem. At the end of the trial, she's still quiet but more cheerful, actually smiling herself instead of on paper, and appears to be confident in her decision to both face the damage her forgeries did and join the rest of the world in life. However, this being pre-trial, she won't yet have found the need to change, or the people who helped her see that there is good in the outside world.
Though this isn't very apparent in her mannerisms, her talent at making exact copies shows that she has a great eye and mindfulness for detail.
Abilities: Being an extraordinarily sheltered young woman, Vera really has no exceptional abilities beyond her talent at reproducing things exactly—whether painting, or a real object—and being a fast draw at sketching, which she uses as part of her communication.
