Line 9:
=== Hershel Layton ===
[[File:140px-
The protagonist. A gentlemanly archaeologist famous for his puzzle-solving skills.
Line 27:
* [[Doting Parent]]: He has shades of this with Flora. Most noticeably, he has a particular voice inflection that seems to be reserved solely for when he's speaking to her; it's softer and gentler than his regular voice (which is already quite placid and easy on the ears).
* [[Face Palm]]: Covers his eyes with his hat whenever he gets a puzzle wrong.
* [[Fake Brit]]: Not an in-game example, but his voice actor, Christopher Robin Miller, uses
* [[Famed in Story]]: Even though he is no detective.
* [[Funny Afro]]: Used to have one. Check the trailer for ''Mask of Miracle'' if you doubt it.
Line 53:
=== Luke Triton ===
[[File:120px-
The professor's apprentice. Aspires to be a gentleman when he's older.
Line 75:
* [[The Other Darrin]]: In the UK version, he has a different voice than in the US version.
* [[Pink Girl, Blue Boy]]: While Flora wears a fair bit of pink, Luke's signature color is very much blue.
* [[Speaks Fluent Animal]]: The English version of ''Curious Village'' presents it as [[Friend to All Living Things]], though, and an [[Informed Ability]] at that (when he tries to coax a cat to him, he ends up getting scratched). The other games, however, use the trope perfectly
** There actually may be a reason to why Luke couldn't communicate with Claudia. {{spoiler|[[Fridge Brilliance|The cat is probably a robot, like the rest of the residents of St. Mystere]]}}
* [[The Watson]]: Having this role in the games makes him something of an [[Ascended Fanboy]], since in ''Unwound Future'' he remarks that he's read the [[Sherlock Holmes]] books many times over.
Line 81:
=== Flora Reinhold ===
[[File:
Line 113:
* [[Royal Blood]]: She's the daughter of a baron, and thus part of the nobility. {{spoiler|This actually has relevance to the plot of ''Professor Layton's London Life''.}}
* [[Spoiled Sweet]]: She doesn't seem to have a malicious bone in her body, and on those occasions when she actually does get mad, it's not hard to soothe her.
* [[The Unfavorite]]: It's understandable that Layton doesn't want to bring a young lady into danger (and even if you think that's a bit sexist, you have to admit that Flora is in no way equipped to handle such situations), and he'll go to her aid when she ''is'' in danger; but the fact is that when she's not physically present, she might as well not exist. It's even worse when you consider that Flora is quite sensitive to being left
** In ''Diabolical Box'' {{spoiler|Luke and Layton realize that the "Flora" they've been traveling with was really Don Paolo, with the real Flora unaccounted for. They guess that she was left behind at a previous stop and, content that she's safe, go on their merry way (they were right, but had no way of knowing this).}}
*** Well, {{spoiler|Don Paolo himself}} was the one who said where she was, and he had little reason to lie about that at that point. But even if they disbelieved him, the only other place she could be (considering that {{spoiler|two Floras on the train would've been too suspicious}}) would be safe at home. In any case, it's not like they could just go back for her: the train was stopped at the station, and all of the crew was exploring Folsense instead of preparing to start it up again. They were stuck in that town.
Line 123:
=== Emmy Altava ===
[[File:
Line 150:
=== Inspector Chelmey ===
[[File:
Line 191:
=== Don Paolo ===
[[File:130px-
A [[Mad Scientist]] and the Professor's self-declared arch rival. Most of his plans involve disguising himself as someone. Also likes playing music.
Line 227:
=== Jean Descole ===
[[File:
Line 248:
* [[Kick the Dog]]: In ''The Last Specter'' {{spoiler|his machines beat the poor [[Cute Monster|Lagushi]] while trying to destroy the town.}}
* [[Mad Scientist]]
* [[Malevolent Masked Men]]: He and his [[Mook
* [[Master of Disguise]]: {{spoiler|In The Last Specter and Mask of Miracles.}}
* [[Noodle Incident]]: So far, we don't know the history between him and Layton, but Layton notes that he has heard his name before.
Line 385:
=== Anton Herzen ===
[[File:150px-
Line 414:
=== Sophia ===
[[File:
Line 431:
{{quote|''Voiced by'': [[Yuri Lowenthal]] (EN)}}
[[File:140px-
[[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Luke 10 years in the future]]. He sends a letter to his past self and needs help. {{spoiler|There's more to him than meets the eye. A ''lot'' more.}}
Line 456:
=== Claire Folly ===
[[File:
Layton's college sweetheart who died in an accident with a [[Time Machine]]. {{spoiler|She did travel through time, but her body couldn't manage the time travel and was fighting to go back to the time when the machine exploded, resulting in her death. She's the one who taught Layton about being a true gentleman.}}
Line 470:
=== Celeste Folly ===
[[File:
Claire's sister who aids the heroes in ''Unwound Future''.
Line 478:
* [[Never Got to Say Goodbye]]: She explains that she and Claire had been estranged when the accident occurred, and that her biggest regret is how she didn't try to make amends with her sister before it was too late. {{spoiler|This is presumably so that Layton won't question why Claire never mentioned her}}.
* [[Save the Villain]]: {{spoiler|Saves Clive, largely out of feeling responsible for the tragedy that cost him his parents}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Time Travel
* [[Uncanny Family Resemblance]]: Everyone who knew Claire is taken aback by how much her sister looks like her. {{spoiler|Of course, that's because they're really the same person.}}
