In-Character Information
Name: Ron DeLite
Game/Series: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations
Teacher/Student/Other: Other
Canon Point: Right after his two trials are over. Both of them. All of them. He is a free man.
Age: 23
Grade Level/Class Taught/Job: Security guard
Dorm or Living Arrangement: Dorm, for now.
Personality: Ron DeLite is a timid man married to a wild woman named Desirée. He is 23 years old, almost 5'8", and very animated in his actions. While timid, Ron is still passionate and heroic at times to a point of seeming pretentious, but brave all the same. Uh, sometimes. It's hard to tell.
That being said, Ron is also very indecisive. He can't ever leave the small details to rest, and if something he says is even a little misleading, Ron will be sure to correct himself by going into long tangents explaining why it's wrong and what he actually means by that, and trailing off to a point of inaudibility while doing so. He's very odd like that.
Even though Ron was framed for larceny (and he actually was guilty of it) and murder (which he was not guilty of), he has a heart of gold. Ron always has the best interest of others in mind and will do anything someone asks him to do if it'll please them. That's why he became a thief in the first place, actually; details on that are to come. Of course, even though he became a thief to please someone he loved, Ron knew that by stealing, he was indirectly doing harm to others. During this time, it seems he didn't want to think about that, and became emotional when he knew he was doing a disservice to other people.
He's super geeky when it comes to masked men with an aura of mystery. It doesn't matter if they're villainous or a hero or anything: Ron just loves them. Ron has always had an affinity for mysterious masked men for as long as he can remember. When he pushes himself to do things, his motives tend to be very simple and revolve around the desires of others, since Ron never does much on his own volition. This is because he is far too indecisive to come up with a plan for anything, so when others tell him what to do, he has less trouble going through with it and coming out victorious.
Ron's pretty simple, but really flamboyant, whiny, and hard to follow. He's easy to embarrass and fluster. Ron is known well for his melodramatic outbursts that occur when he feels he needs to exclaim something important. He usually shouts when feeling this way. He's also sensitive to criticism and eager to please, so he'll fix whatever the problem is to the best of his ability. He's loyal, and- wait, am I describing a dog? I think I'm describing a dog. (Okay, haha, real funny Prince, get on with it.) He often overreacts in response to minor matters. He's also very expressive and as easy to read as a book intended for kindergartners.
Backstory: Ron DeLite was raised in some pseudo Los Angeles,Japan CA where everything was strangely that much more Japanese. Ever since he was young, Ron idolized "mysterious masked men" and it wasn't rare to find him watching some cartoon, reading a comic, dressing up as his favorites, or even acting like them to a point of overkill. He was a super geeky kid about all this stuff, you see.
Generally speaking, Ron's childhood was an uneventful one. Once he got through high school, he went through a little bit of college and settled on a job at KB Security as a security guard. He worked there for a while and surprisingly, he wasn't bad at his job. He never stood down to any baddies (not that they were frequent, but hey, it happens), and he was always vigilant and aware (almost to a point of irritating his coworkers). On the job, Ron met his wife-to-be, Desirée, when he defended her from knife-wielding muggers. She was impressed by his brave and heroic attitude, and the two quickly fell in love and married soon after.
Not too long after, unfortunately, Ron was fired from his job at KB Security. Why? Desirée DeLite had a nasty spending appetite that gold-hearted Ron was eager to appease, and he would do anything for an extra buck if it meant his wife would be happy. That's why he sold company secrets to competitors for some extra cash. His boss, Kane Bullard, discovered this and promptly fired him. The deal between the two stood that Bullard would not press charges as long as Ron would keep his mouth shut about the ordeal.
Ron didn't want to worry his beloved wife about his unemployment, so he did anything he could to keep this incident a secret. What could he do to earn money, and quick? It had to pay more than his previous job... That was when he became Mask☆DeMasque, a name Ron used as his identity as a thief. He made an entire costume to match this get-up, which even the public would soon learn to recognize.
Ron had to earn money for his wife somehow, and he knew just the thing that would earn money fast: to steal the Tear of Emanon, a precious gem worth big bucks. Ron notified the owner of the jewel with a "Salutations" card many days beforehand. Just so they knew he was coming to steal their stuff. That was the way Ron would continue to work as a thief. Clad in his Mask☆DeMasque costume, he then proceeded with his plan and successfully stole the Tear of Emanon. He disposed of his costume in the trash just before he would have been caught by the authorities and changed into the garb of a security guard, but a mysterious someone caught him in the act...
After this incident, Ron began receiving blackmail letters from this mysterious person. They gave him detailed plans instructing him to steal various other precious items as the great Mask☆DeMasque. In doing this, Ron would be paid generously, so he continued acting as the pawn of this mastermind under the threat of blackmail and the need for money. Besides, this mystery person was awfully good at crafting the perfect plans while Ron, as he learned, was not quite as adept as coming up with those plans, as he learned from his first attempt... But he sure was good at following directions. Nobody could catch him.
That is, until he turned himself in for theft suddenly, following the reported theft of the not-so-valuable Kurain Urn. Then, his case happened. It was long. Very long. And perhaps consisted of more than just one case, because Ron wasn't going to be tried for just theft, oh no. Once Phoenix Wright managed to prove him innocent of larceny, he was also immediately tried for the murder of KB's CEO, Kane Bullard, who was also his previous boss.
In reality, Ron was guilty of theft. However, Phoenix Wright, his defense attorney, managed to prove him not guilty, framing Luke Atmey (which, of course, was partially true, as Atmey was responsible for the planning and blackmailing of Ron). In proving his innocence of this case, he was arrested again for murder, which Phoenix had to prove was also committed by Luke Atmey at the same exact time. They learn after that Ron truly did steal a few things under the watch of Luke Atmey, but thanks to the double jeopardy rule in the court system, Ron couldn't be tried twice for something he'd already been absolved of guilt from.
Lucky break. Confetti was thrown.
After this occurrence, Ron wondered how he would make enough money for his wife in an honest manner! It seemed impossible, knowing her shopping habits. That is, until he was offered a job at Capcom Academy as a security guard, and he would be paid quite generously there. With a tearful goodbye, Ron went off to work at this school before - gasp! - Capcom Academy transferred him to that rowdy school called Smash Academy instead of employing him there. He was confused, sure, but it was the same job at a different school, right? So at Smash Academy, Ron was ready to start his new job and make sure his wife back home would be rich and happy.
Anything Else?: While Ron is not too good at speaking (as seen pretty much any time he talks), his typing is different. You know, because normally, people don't go out of their way to type in quirks they use in their speech. That is ridiculous. However, he might abuse small and big tags! When speaking, on the other hand, I will indicate his bad habit of growing quieter by trailing off lighter and lighter until you can barely read it on white background...
Oh, another thing. It is a small and unimportant thing about attire. Even though Ron looks pretty damn snazzy in his Mask☆DeMasque outfit, he doesn't wear it all the time. He'll either dress very over-the-top or casually.
In-Character 1st person writing sample:
"Someone has sent your character an anonymous love note." {Text.}
Umm... I'm sure nobody will mind me asking, since it's the right thing to do and all. Well, I mean, unless this was supposed to be a secret, in which case I'm really sorry but I don't know what else to do with this note until I know who it actually belongs to...
Actually, what I was trying to say is that I found an unmarked love note in my room. It makes me sort of nervous just to look at it. I doubt it was for me, because NOTHING would get in between my love for Dessie! Er. Actually, it was addressed to 'Ron', but there's got to be a slight possibility that there's another Ron in this school, seeing that it's actually a pretty common name... So please! If you wrote this note, please come take it back! I don't want it!! I'M NOT IN LOVE WITH YOU!!
In-Character 3rd person writing sample:
"Your character is attempting to bake a triple-decker cake."
Ron wasn't too bad at baking. In fact, he was pretty good at it. Of course, just to claim it wouldn't do the job, so here was Ron, spatula in hand, and ready to tackle that triple-decker cake with the creamy vanilla frosting he carefully whipped up.
It wouldn't stand a chance. Everything was going so smoothly.
Well, uh, until Ron actually began frosting. That was going okay, too, but that mischievous Pichu that kept following him around wasn't going to let that happen. She slid through the cake, knocking it forward and onto Ron's clothes. Oh, and then onto the floor.
"AaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!" Ron screamed, falling to his knees. His fingers graced the edge of the ruined cake as he mourned for the sweet confection he had been slaving over for the past two hours. To witness something in ruins so easily and for it to have happened to quickly... the redhead sobbed.
Now where did that Pichu go? Ron wasn't sure what it was, but there was probably some reason the Pokémon wanted to go around and ruin his day. Not paying the mess of frosting and cake residue splashed across his front, he stood and went on a search for the Pichu. It didn't take long: once he was on his feet, the Electric-type Pokémon scampered from the doorway and lunged for a section of the cake.
"W-Wait!" Ron cried out, chasing the Pichu out the door. "I don't want to yell at you, so please! Just let me talk to you!!"
Somehow, the Pichu stopped. It probably had to do with Ron's pathetic crying that led her to believe he meant what he said, but she would let him talk his head off. Sure. She turned to Ron, grumpy written all over her face.
Ron gulped. "Umm... I'm not entirely sure why you want my cake so bad. Actually," he began, "I think I know why, because you stole my banana earlier and now you want my cake, so that probably means you're hungry..." The Pichu was now confused. That man just sort of trailed off there and kept mumbling something. "What I mean is that if you wanted some, you could have just asked me. If you're hungry, I can get you anything you want." Ron offered a sheepish smile.
The Pichu considered his generosity. She certainly didn't expect him to be okay with her devious actions, much less offer her whatever she wanted. So she dealt with this in the only way she knew how.
She flung the chunk of cake at Ron's face before running off in a fit of giggles.
Ron stood back up and accidentally wiped the cake off onto the floor. He sadly watched the Pichu run off before realizing that he should probably clean that up so the janitor wouldn't have to do it. So much to do... he would have to remake that cake, too.
