* OnlySaneMan: She's probably the one of the least quirky mammals in the courtroom at any given time, (wood chewing habits aside) but that comes with the cost of having to suffer through the mania of not only the witnesses, but also the defense and prosecution.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Kind of her whole deal. As judge, it's her duty to ensure that proceedings go smoothly and that each side has a fair chance to prove their points. Noted as tough, but fair.
* RunningGag: Wooden objects don't last long around her. On the first day of trial, the courtroom is in perfect condition despite the entire thing being craved out of a tree. The same cannot be said about her bench on the second day. Or Juror No. 5's chair.

The gardener of Casa Tigre. She was also Lord Tigre's mistress, and when Tigre discarded her, she killed him in a fury.

* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: She's completely immune to the effects of her own catnip, due to years and years of substance abuse with it.
* ArtisticLicenseBiology: Mention is made of her retracting and unsheathing her claws a couple times over the course of the trial, but cheetahs are the only species of feline that ''can't'' retract their claws.
* BusmansVocabulary: She regularly makes gardening puns and references, calling Delilah an "evergreen" attorney.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: Her ditzy demeanor and spaced out nature is all just an act. As noted above, she's totally immune to catnip, and only plays it up to fly under everybody else's radar.
* SuperSpeed: Being a cheetah gives her a natural degree of this, but its elevated to ridiculous levels by virtue of Ace Attorney logic. Might also be how she manages to sculpt topiaries quickly and accurately.
* VerbalTic: Nyah. She's even given a unique BigWordShout in the form of '''Nya ah ah''', which is probably meant to either be the vocalization of a FingerWag, or an EvilLaugh.

To boot, the entire chapter was AllJustADream.]] She gets significantly more screen time in this fic, and even has a relationship with Delilah, the deuteragonist.
