Dahlia Hawthorne is the main antagonist in the Phoenix Wright Trilogy of the Ace Attorney franchise.
She is the overarching antagonist of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and one of the two main antagonists (alongside Godot) of its sequel Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations.
She is a heartless serial killer who uses her sweet appearance and demeanor to manipulate people. She is also the arch-nemesis and evil counterpart of Mia Fey, as well as the first arch-enemy of Phoenix Wright, whom she manipulated in the past.
In the Japanese anime, she was voiced by Rina Sato, while in the English version, she was voiced by Dani Chambers.
What Makes Her Pure Evil?[]
- She exiled and disinherited her own twin sister at eight years old.
- She planned a fake kidnapping plot with Valerie and Terry to extort 2 million out of her father, an act done solely out of greed.
- She used her step-sister Valerie and lover Terry Fawles to steal the diamond from her father, manipulating the latter into faking a kidnapping and ended up getting Terry sent to death row for seemingly killing Dahlia by "throwing" her off a bridge.
- She murdered Valerie who despite her helping her tie up loose ends, and pinned it on Terry.
- She manipulated Terry Fawles into thinking she loved him and convinced him that the two of them should agree to a suicide pact if it meant they couldn't trust each other anymore, leading Terry to eventually take his own life during the trial after Dahlia manipulated him into considering it so she could save her own life, leaving the courtroom with a smile on her face.
- She poisoned Diego Armando after he was on to her guilt about murdering Valerie, and while he survived, his eyesight got severely damaged and he became color-blind, causing him to depend on a visor in order to see properly.
- After giving Phoenix Wright the container she used to poison Diego Armando supposedly as a gift to shift blame off herself, she considered killing him until Iris persuaded her to let her impersonate her and date him to get the container.
- She attempted to kill Phoenix by poisoning his cough medicine after feeling like she had waited too long for Phoenix to give the container back.
- She murdered her ex-boyfriend Doug Swallow to cover all loose ends, trying to pin the murder on Phoenix.
- She teamed up with her mother to kill Maya Fey by tricking Pearl into channelling her after she was executed, being willing to possess and possibly cause the death of a little girl who was her younger sister, only being stopped because someone else channelled her instead.
- She attempted to kill Maya when she was channelled out of pure spite for Mia proving her guilty and causing her rightful execution.
- She pinned Misty Fey's murder on Maya by writing her name in blood on a shrine and later by falsely claiming to be a witness of Maya killing Misty while she was impersonating Iris.
- She attempted to kill Godot a second time when he stepped in to defend Maya.
- During the earthquake, she took the opportunity to trap Iris in a cave and impersonate her.
- She manipulated Phoenix into thinking Maya had killed herself, causing him to have a mental breakdown until Godot helped him prove that it was impossible for Maya to have done so.
- When her murder plan failed, she tried to pin the blame on her own twin as well purely out of spite.
- She easily meets the heinous standard of the series with her large list of heinous crimes, personal villainy with Phoenix, Mia and Godot, and her low resources compared to many other villains.
