Hershel Layton

An archeologist with an extreme knack and liking of puzzles, Professor Layton is extremely good at solving mysteries though is not a detective (as he corrects people many times). He takes in Luke as an understudy though he cares for the boy quite much. The professor values being a true gentleman and often teaches Luke manners and gives him advice. Overall, the professor is a serene, very intelligent, and caring person.
