Character Info
◎ Character's Name: Franziska Von Karma
◎ Character's Canon: Ace Attorney
◎ Character's Age: 19
◎ Canon Point: Investigations 2, Immediately after she replaces Sebastian in a trial for Patrica.
◎ Background/History: http://aceattorney.wikia.com/wiki/Franziska_von_Karma
◎ Is the character a hacker and/or do they have a sixth-sense? Not a hacker but she has strong intuition and something like a sixth sense for detective work.
◎ Personality: Franziska's a young prodigy who became a prosecutor at the age of thirteen. She studied law in Germany and is currently Manfred Von Karma's successor. The name "Von karma" itself was one to be feared and Franziska lived up to that reputation.
Perhaps the first thing someone would notice about Franziska is the whip that she carries around at all times. She has a tendency to strike down people she finds irritating. Her actions are often extreme if not questionable altogether. The whip she holds in her hands is sort of symbolic in a way. Whenever she abandons it it's almost as if she's abandoning herself. Franziska's seen crying in tears when Edgeworth returns it to her. It goes without saying that her whip's important to her. Actually, it'd be weirder to see Franziska without a whip. She hits anything she sees fit, even if that "thing" is someone of high status.
That's not to say that Franziska's a terrible person by any means. She's capable of showing sympathy even if it's unexpected. When Sebastian Debeste was going through a crisis she outwardly admitted that she felt sorry for his dilemma and offered to help. Franziska isn't cruel even though she may appear to be so. She even befriended Kay Faraday who just recently lost her father in a brutal murder. There's a few people whom she can socialize with on normal terms even though she usually has difficulty doing so. After all, Franziska's someone who has graduated from university really early age. Her intelligence set her apart from others. It's almost hard to believe that someone like Maya Fey's the same age as Franziska Von Karma because they live in completely different worlds.
Franziska values "perfection" just as a Von Karma should. This specific trait of hers is something that she inherited from her father who also shared similar views. Manfred's techniques rubbed off on her and you can visibly see through her actions. Franziska would hide things from people in order to achieve her view of perfection. She thinks nothing of using underhanded tactics in order to get what she wants. Franziska isn't the kind of genius perfectionist her father was however she did follow in his footsteps. She lived up to every single expectation Manfred gave her and never lost a case for five years. Franziska was "perfect" up until she faced Phoenix Wright in court.
It's unsurprising to note that Franziska's prideful and haughty to a fault. Everything's a competition to Franziska. Her initial attitude might make her difficult to get along with. Franziska isn't exactly the nicest person on the block and she won't hesitate to call someone a fool even if they're superior to her. Sometimes she'd even call the judge foolish in the middle of a court session.On that topic Franziska also has an unfortunate habit of using the word "fool" multiple times in the same sentence whenever she intends to insult someone. She can be quite abrasive and nearly impossible to deal with when she's angry.
When it comes to Franziska's insecurities there's a few things that come to mind. The first one would happen to be her height. Whenever the topic of her height was brought up she would lash out and get angry like a little child. Her temperament and demeanor make it easy to believe that she's someone who grew up quickly but still had a lot to learn. Her view on the world's somewhat narrow minded and she has difficulty understanding things from other perspectives. Honestly, Franziska can't even forgive Edgeworth for abandoning the path of the Von Karma. Her insecurities dissipate when she realizes that Edgeworth's still the same guy even though he choose a new path.
Her relationship with Edgeworth's worth mentioning as well. She considers him to be her brother. They were both trained under the same instructor and that's why Franziska feels particularly close to him. The two of them took on many cases together and Franziska has come to understand one thing -- that Edgeworth was unworthy of being the successor to Von Karma. She wanted to prove to Edgeworth that she was better than him by beating Phoenix Wright in court. Franziska always feels the need to show her superiority to him. We even see this side of her when Edgeworth officially signs up to become Franziska's subordinate. She seemed to enjoy ordering him around even if it was only for a brief moment.
In spite of Franziska's many faults there's one thing certain that rings true. Franziska has an undying sense of duty and she carries a heavy burden on herself. In Farewell, My turnabout Franziska got shot in the shoulder by a bullet but she quickly recovered and carried some decisive evidence to the courtroom on her own accord. She's not someone who'd quit after starting something and she'd see through the end all the way. Her determination and sharp deduction skills allows her to preform her job as a prosecutor despite her inexperience. Franziska never once ran away from her duties willingly and she wishes to bring justice to criminals alike.

Samples
◎ First-Person Sample:
[So, Franziska's at work and she's throwing her rage at the workers there. It'd be unfortunate if you happen to get caught up in it for some reason.]
What is this foolish tomfoolery?! I would like to hear an explanation for this foolish farce made by fools who act so foolishly among fools.
[Her whip strikes the nearest object and it falls over in an ungraceful manner. Talk about childish! Franziska's tantrum isn't going to stop anytime soon. She's angry and she demands to be heard by someone who'll hear her complaints. ]
I specifically requested that you order the second version, not the first. Only a fool could make such a foolish error. If you get it wrong a second time, you'll have to answer to my whip!
[And so she holds it up in the air, ready to strike someone who probably doesn't deserve it. All of it was recorded. She'll be even angrier when she finds out.]
