Wolfgang Akire !

Name: Wolfgang Akire, Talent: Ultimate Lawyer, Age: 22 (10/22), Height: 6’2”, Gender: Male, Likes: Daytime TV, Gold, Dislikes: Alcohol, Lies, Animal Motif: Sheep

Personality —————— Wolfgang is a well-spoken and kind-hearted gentleman. He is extraordinarily polite to everyone he meets, even those with more aggressive personalities like Grace. He is also protective and caring towards those that are more vulnerable. For example, he is quick to defend Toshiko when Grace starts yelling at her, as Wolfgang feels she's too young. Similarly, he encourages Eloise to come out despite her being scared of the situation. Throughout Chapter 0, he is shown to be a very strong leader who watches over everyone and makes sure they feel safe.

In contrast to Damon, Wolfgang is someone who has high faith in all Ultimates, and sees them as people who improve society as a whole. While Damon is quick to judge those with talents of "little importance", Wolfgang seems to believe in each and every one of them. During his speech at the end of Chapter 0, he stands up to the mastermind, claiming no one has the heart to kill, and that they're not going to drop their morals so easily. Even when Tozu argues that he has no reason to believe people won't kill each other, Wolfgang admits he doesn't know for sure but chooses to believe in them regardless. He is even taken aback when Damon suggests that not everyone here has the same goals, as Wolfgang thinks everyone is here to improve the world in which they live. Overall, Wolfgang is shown to be a very optimistic and trusting person, at least when it comes to his fellow Ultimates.

Despite being so young, Wolfgang is a very accomplished lawyer, having successfully defended over 200 clients without ever dropping a case. Despite this, he only defends using truth and logic, no matter if it ruins his own case. Because of this, Wolfgang is shown to be a very honest person, with his bio even stating that he dislikes lies. As shown during Cara's trial, Wolfgang is shown to be a leader of sorts, making sure everyone stays on the right track by bringing up important points to discuss. Through this, he is clearly revealed to be a very intelligent lawyer who knows what he's doing.

However, Wolfgang isn't above hypocrisy: he holds other students to higher standards than himself, as remarked by Damon in the fourth FTE. While Wolfgang admits he cannot always be the person he is the court, he doesn't show the same lenience to Damon and Eva, the two students ostracized from the group by his actions. Often, Wolfgang neglects his morals when it doesn't benefit him, such as when he counterfeits being sick to deceive Grace or brings a knife to a secret meeting in case if he needs to protect himself. He is also shown to be quite stubborn, withdrawing from his idea to secure a medical cabinet to avoid agreeing with Damon.

In spite of all of Wolfgang's positive aspects, he does have his limits. During the Chapter 0 trial, he gets absolutely furious over Cara's killer, as he views the crime to be unjustified and sadistic. While others argue it might have been self-defense, the sheer brutality of the murder makes Wolfgang think otherwise. As someone who has been through many criminal trials, Damon remarks during the Pathos Route that he would understand the criminal mind in a way others can't. Despite normally being level-headed, Wolfgang reacts angrily, and even lashes out at Jett for not remembering who Cara is, as well as calling out Wenona, questioning whether she even cares about integrity as the Ultimate Entrepreneur. Even though Wolfgang has never heard of this case before and everyone seemingly solved it, he wanted to discuss the killer's motives in order to reveal how unjustified the crime was and bring them to justice. Wolfgang may be a defense attorney, but there are certain crimes he can't even defend and are enough for him to get angry over. All in all, Wolfgang is a very polite person with good ethics, but he does have certain standards that he is very passionate about.

Appearance: —————— Wolfgang is a young adult man of very tall stature and skinny build. Wolfgang has very pale white skin with purple eyes. He has medium-length black, almost purple-looking hair that's combed neatly back with a front strand of hair reaching down to his nose. He has a mole on the right side of his jawline.

He wears a formal black suit with a white vest and purple tie underneath, dark gray pants, and black shoes. Attached to the left side of his suit lapel is a sheep pin.

As is the case for every other participant of the Killing Game, he wears a Tozu Trinket on his left wrist.

Name Etymology —————— Wolfgang is a German name composed of the Old High German words wolf, meaning "wolf", and gang, meaning "path", "journey", "travel".[1] Wolves are often associated with intelligence, confidence, and protection, all of which apply to Wolfgang, especially with his talent. "Akire" is a very uncommon name, so its origins are hard to find out. One of the most accepted theories is that Akire is a modern inversion of the more traditional name "Erika" or "Erica," meaning "ever-powerful" or "eternal ruler."[2] It can also mean "fighter of the sin."[3] "Akire" is a somewhat common surname in Nigeria and Uganda

Trivia —————— Wolfgang is partially based on Connor from Detroit: Become Human, and his quote "Twenty-eight stab wounds! No girl - no person - should ever suffer Cara's fate!" is a reference to the 28 stab wounds meme from the same game.

Additionally, Cara Koskinen's first name is a reference to Kara, another character from Detroit: Become Human. These references were added due to the lead writer, Sozzay, being a fan of the game.[citation needed]

Wolfgang is the tallest of the 16 students at 6'2.

His astrology sign, Libra, is represented by the symbol of the scales, based on the Scales of Justice held by Themis, the Greek personification of divine law and custom, potentially referencing his talent as the Ultimate Lawyer.

In Chapter 1, it is hinted that he started studying Law at a very young age; which shows that he was just around his teenage years that he already went to college.

In a conversation between Wolfgang and Ingrid, he states that he doesn't know how to cook, and is also shown to not know how to do his own laundry.
