Name: Klavier Gavin
Age: 25
Height: Taller than you
Weight: None of your beeswax
Medical Info: Surprisingly healthy
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Better than yours Platinum Blond
Kin
Parents: Unknown/Presumably Uninvolved
Brother: Kristoph Gavin
Pets: Vongole. Since the !mun has a very soft spot for retrievers-particularly golden retrievers-Klavier has taken the initiative and rescued Vongole from a fate of impoundment and has gone through the process of restructuring Vongole’s habits so that he is more like a loveable canine and less like…well, Kristoph. Otherwise there would be no living together. Fortunately Vongole is young enough so that he can learn some new habits; unfortunately he’s picked up on some of Klavier’s own habits. He’s very enthusiastic, has little regard for personal space, and he’s quite friendly. Vongole is an Italian name, surprisingly, it is the plural form of vongola meaning clam-a popular vongole dish is “linguine alle vongole” or “linguine with clams”…sounds tasty.

Appearance
Physical traits: Tall, dark, and handsome just about covers it. Okay well maybe not just, but very close! Keep in mind that Klavier has a stage presence about him so he’s probably a little bit above average as far as physical stature goes-though his IC stats do not really go into height/weight/and DoB details, it is easy enough just to make a kind of educated guess. He’s German, so the average height is approximately 5’10”-5’11” so he’s thereabouts (I imagine he's more than just average so 6'0"-6'1"). He has a very lean, strong build that, I’m sure if given half the chance he would exhibit more of than he is able. He tends to keep the top and bottom buttons of his shirt undone, not because he is sloven, obviously he is well pressed and well dressed, but because it draws attention to his collar and his stomach. He's disposed to wearing chains and jewelry that draw the eye to these same areas. Coincidence? I don’t think so, he’s pretty vain, he wants the attention and he certainly wants to be looked at. It seems like the jewelry he wears emphasizes the features he wants noticed as well. Klavier also has a prosecutor’s badge that he probably doesn’t wear on his person normally (at least not on any visible part of his body). Physically his skin pigmentation is somewhat dark and most likely it is not his natural skin color and was probably achieved through some variation of sunless tanning. He has medium-thick, platinum blond hair which is normally styled in an unusual drill-bit fashion that he wears down the left side of his shoulder. His eyes are cerulean blue and are usually lively and filled with mischief, there’s also something secretive and knowing about his eyes that belies his young age.
Environment
Home: Everything you would like to know about Klavier’s home can be found here. He lives in a suite that was custom designed for him and despite the size of the suite it is designed for one person. He doesn’t possess a guest room or a spare bathroom only the rooms described in the album. Klavier is a fan of contemporary and contrast, many of his rooms are black and white, hot and cold. He doesn’t keep any personal items in plain view, especially his bedroom, giving it a somewhat spacious and empty appearance.

Transportation: Motorcycles are Klavier’s primary means of transportation, he’s generally quite an adept rider but he managed to total one of his bikes in an accident and has since bought another. This is the motorcycle he uses casually and everyday, he has another motorcycle that is reserved for special occasions, a Vincent Black Shadow.

Thread Hopping with This Character: As long as the thread isn’t filtered/private.
Backtagging with This Character: Sure.
What's okay to mention around him: Just about anything is alright to mention around him, bearing in mind that he’s a lawyer. You might not want to say anything incriminating, but he tends to keep an open mind. His brother is not a topic he’s too open in discussing and neither is his first trial against Phoenix. He will discuss these things on his own terms, but he may become irritable if the conversation starts getting a little hairy.
Abilities: He doesn’t have any supernatural abilities, but he has some exceptional abilities for a normal human being.
He is a prodigy. He was 17 when he had his first day in court as a prosecutor opposite of Phoenix Wright. He’s mellowed out a lot since then, he has an inflated ego now, but then it was a bit out of control when he was first starting out. He was very sure, confident and arrogant…and maybe even somewhat disrespectful-but he was still brilliant. Some of that could be chalked up to his being a teenager; all teens tend to have this sense of invulnerability. Now he’s a bit more aware of his weaknesses and he’s not quite as insulting in court…but he is still as cocky as ever. He’s also very charismatic; he has a star quality about himself that tends to translate well to other people and this probably stems from his confidence.
Klavier is also a well-versed musician and vocalist; he was able to build up a band and rocket to stardom before hitting 20. He is an exceptional guitarist and no doubt an incredible singer, his albums seem to sell well enough and he’s performed with some notable faces in the AA world. Of course he is no longer part of a band, but he still practices his hobbies regularly.
Note for the psychics: There’s nothing really apart from the fact that he may have a bit of an inferiority complex. The only real secrets he prefers to keep locked inside of his head are ones concerning any case he might be working on-unless he chooses to divulge information.
There is some evidence that implies Klavier may suffer from an inferiority complex and that it may stem from the fact that his brother was a brilliant attorney and possibly a caregiver that demanded a great deal from his younger brother. In order to compensate for Kristoph’s demands and brilliance he overcompensated, becoming a prosecutor at a younger age. Instead of playing the violin Klavier picked up a guitar, created a band and became a rock star. He tends to dress and act in opposition of his brother. And something else, whenever Kristoph is around Klavier tends to be more subdued-Kristoph, notably, insults and talks down to his younger brother in front of authority figures.
Can I shapeshift/bodyswap/spit at/step on/etc?: Absolutely, as long as you consult with me first. Don't expect him to think too kindly of you afterwards, though.
Maim/Murder/Death: As long as it is not a perma-death and as long as it’s cleared with me, I’m open to suggestions.
Kissing/hugging/badtouch: While he enjoys all three Klavier has certain protocols. He’s known for sleeping with perfect strangers, well not perfect strangers, but he does tend to gauge a person carefully before he will hug, kiss or go any further with them. If he finds that he likes you, is mildly interested in you or that you have something in common then you’re more than welcome. You should expect some, or a lot of reciprocation for your efforts, however. It may also be that, should Klavier take a liking to you he might become highly invasive of your territory whether you want him to be or not-he’s a big tease like that. He loves to watch a stiff squirm and he enjoys the willing just as much.
[Additional Information]
Likes: His job, playing the guitar, singing, being glimmerous, luxury and the simple things (go figure), being the anti-Kristoph, men and women equally, Vongole, anything in his red-light room, teasing, justice, and perfection (in certain areas of his life).
Dislikes: Being compared to his brother, any assumption that he had anything to do with loss of Wright’s attorneys badge, injustice, and imperfection (in certain areas of his life).
Comment: Achtung, baby!!!!!
How to get on his good side: There is no one specific thing a person can do to get on his good side since it really doesn’t take much.
How to get on his bad side: Accusing him of having any involvement in the framing of Phoenix Wright and comparing him to his brother.
Cooking: He has very little knowledge apart from the basics. He has just enough skill in this arena to keep himself alive. Caution: He may burn down your kitchen and don't let him near anything more complicated than a microwave.
[Relationships IC/OC]
Trucy: In his heart, she is his number-one fan. He plans on keeping a brotherly eye out for her and is generally concerned for her over-all wellbeing. He finds himself perplexed by her brand of magic and being a realist he is a skeptic, but he seems to be coming around. She is one of the few people he’d actually really listen to and take advice from, because he knows how clever she can be. It’s a little intimidating!
Phoenix: In a word “confusion.” He doesn’t really know what to think about the Phoenix of this timeline yet. He seems friendly enough and bears no apparent ill-will towards Klavier. As of yet Klavier has no idea what to make of him, but he plans on keeping an open mind.
Franziska: His queen? Who knows, she seems to hold a great deal of disdain for him, but he likes her spirit. They tend to get into friendly, on Klavier’s part, debates over how Klavier chooses to practice as a prosecutor…and there may be a sense of rivalry here. Generally, Klavier likes her, but as with Miles he can’t help wondering what she thinks about him and what kind of information she’s gathered on him.
Miles: They haven’t had much interaction yet, he seems like the kind of person whose skin Klavier would like to get under. He’s also very interested in what Miles really thinks of him and whether or not Miles lumps Klavier into the same category as his brother. Their brief conversation left him with a strange sense of what Miles may or may not know about him.
Ema: Their relationship is very mysterious, thus far. He still hasn’t figured out that she is the same Detective Ema Skye from his own timeline-just younger.
Tyki: Lust at first sight? They haven’t known each other long enough for there to be any depth to their relationship, but that doesn’t seem to matter. They share an obvious physical compatibility with one another and have similar tastes when it comes to certain things-particularly their likes and indulgences. They also share a similar sense of humor that seems to revolve around teasing and telling raunchy jokes. Though his information concerning Tyki is limited he wouldn’t be against getting to know him on a more personal level, maybe over a game.
Zechs: Finds him beautiful and very formal and their relationship is also a strange one. When they first introduced themselves Klavier was impressed by Zechs’s wealth of information and therefore asked Zechs to be the person to take care of him on the community. So far their relationship has been based on Zech providing Klavier with knowledge about the strange happenings of the community.
Azula: They have a very one-sided relationship, so far Klavier really likes her and the more he talks to her the more he learns about her…well except for her age of course. Klavier has his hunches, but he won’t ask anyone about her age, he prefers asking Azula directly because she never gives him a direct answer. Yes, so far the foundation of their strange relationship is the topic of her age.
Regene: Also known as the mystery man. Their conversations have been as brief as their personal encounters, he’s an interesting individual, but Klavier knows next to zilch about him.
