A defense attorney is tasked with defending the accused. After all, not everyone who stands before the court is guilty. They, too, may be required to stand in court and present their case.

      Name: Willard H. Wright

      Biography: Willard H. Wright was considered a legendary detective and prosecutor of witches within his time as the head of the SSVD, a special heretical reformation agency branch and subdivision under the Great Court of Heaven. During that time, Willard found issue with the ethics behind the methodology used in finding and prosecuting witches, which often involved torture and robbed the innocent of their autonomy. Since his retirement he has worked to protecting the hearts of sinners and the innocent alike, and ultimately, wants to find the truth and understanding behind every case, so that it may be fairly judged and given proper resolution.

      Experience: Willard has had an incredible career as head of his own “prosecution agency,” served many years and gained famed and fear alike from witches and angels for his ability to discern the truth and tear through every single mystery that has come across his desk. He is well versed in defense, prosecution, judge, jury, executioner, and detective work.

      Reasons for application: “… I can’t enjoy my retirement stuck in this city.

"If this law office wishes to establish itself, I will make sure that it takes the heart of its clients into consideration. Every case must consider the heart, I won’t accept the innocent be put away with lousy reasoning and half-baked excuses.”

“Well, that’s quite a list of credentials. You actually seem like a rather capable individual. Really, someone with your background and experience might even thrive as a prosecutor! But I suppose, upon your request, we will accept you as a defense attorney. Thank you for your application, and welcome.”

While the city’s greenery paled in comparison to that of the frontier and even Boston, there was at least still some. A few trees here and there, a park where children were playing. It was a relief to have something somewhat familiar. Speaking of familiar... He spotted a bird’s nest in a nearby tree, a feather glistening amongst the branches. It was rather high up, but it wouldn’t be a problem. He just had to climb up a few shorter trees that would get him up to height to jump to the feather. Paying little attention to those around him, he began to climb, eventually reaching the bird’s nest. However, what he hadn’t noticed was that the branch was rather thin and despite his abilities, he couldn’t keep it from breaking and falling, taking him with it. He fell from the tree, landing on a man passing by. While the man had somewhat broken his fall, he wasn’t exactly a pile of leaves either.

“Guh...” he groaned, trying to gather the strength to stand up once more.

Willard Huntington Wright was a rash, rogue Templar born to a Japanese immigrant and an American painter in Charlottesville, Virginia--he is most renown for his work during the Progressive Era, working as a muckracking journalist who strove to expose the harsh of realities of government corruption and faulty labor practices to the American public. That is, after he’d joined the Brotherhood--Willard found the corruption present within the Templar Order to be intolerable, as most of its officials had either opted to advocate for monopolies or actively defied reform.

Willard’s shift to an Assassin and member of the Brotherhood was not a particularly favorable one, as he was ultimately depicted as a ruthless, unfeeling traitor--Willard abandons the more elite occupation he once held, instead working as journalist in isolation. During this period, Willard begins to publish short novellas detailing the lives of laborers and disenfranchise folk he’d may or may have not known personally--in many of these novels, he details his own adventures and kills via the perspectives of his protagonists, never writing these novels as autobiographies but instead passing them off as “fiction”.

His pen name is S.S. Van Dine and his weapon set consists of a hunting sword, a rifle and flintlock pistols.

All fantasy is based in reality, and who better to distinguish between the two? As a sorcerer, Willard H. Wright’s power lies in understanding the ways that magic works, and manipulating the spells of others to suit his own goals. His goals, however, are often unpredictable, and tend to shift according to his understanding of the situation. He is a formidable ally and a formidable opponent; when he joins a game, it’s almost guaranteed to find a quick solution.

He used to be a Gym Leader, you know? Back in his heyday, Willard H. Wright (he’s even got a surname, you know he must be important) was one of the most fearsome and elusive Leaders to be found in the entire Hoenn region.

Elusive, why?

Nowadays, he hangs out on the Sevii Islands, but a particularly tenacious trainer can coax him out of his self-inflicted retirement for a battle, as long as it’s not a Monday.

Why not Mondays?

And what’s this about a self-imposed retirement?

If this were a game, everyone’d be complaining about a glitch that happens if you try to battle Will on a Monday. Halfway through, the battle cuts— no, it’s not that you’ve blacked out, and it’s not that you’ve won, either. No prize money is gained or lost, and suddenly you’re back on the overworld map with your Pokemon all the wiser for it.

If you ask the Gym Leader who took over for him, she’ll tell you he took some personal time to be with his girlfriend. She must really be a knockout, right?

Diana the lvl99 Persian is noticeably missing from Will’s lineup of Dark types.

♎ - What is one thing you love about your writing?

I’m really wary about praising my own writing and love is a hecka strong word, but! I try to give my writing sort of an interactive (or conversational, maybe?) aspect and I think writing that way makes it more fun for me, too?

✾ - What do you look for in other people’s writing?

I like pretty language and things that stand out, on the surface level of things that catch my eye! Like, when there are certain sentences that stand out from the rest and linger, I guess?

As far as what I look for in other peoples’ writing as far as replies go, I look for if there’s anything unspoken that I can capitalize on, mostly! Inferences that I can draw, conclusions I can jump to, that sort of thing.
