Professor Sycamore (lit. “Simon PhD”)

CV: Atsuro Watabe

An Archaeologist who researches the Azran civilization. He writes a letter at the beginning of the story, hoping to obtain the cooperation of Professor Layton. His forename seems to be Desmond (Foster, in Japanese).

An expert in Archaeology!

A famous archaeologist… Or at least, he is considered to be an big-name authority in the field of archaeology. Even Luke’s father, Clark, looks up to him.

But why would such a renowned archeologist seek Layton’s help with the Azran civilization?

A diverse spread of knowledge

In addition to his knowledge of archaeology, Sycamore is also well-versed in mechanics and botany. Furthermore, he has a speciality in witty British humour. Is this what it takes to be a British gentleman?

His airship piloting skills are first-class, but they seems to have been forged by perilous past experiences He said he “just happened to read it in a book”, but maybe he was imagining a situation like this may arise…

CV :渡部篤郎

アスラント文明を研究する考古学者。レイトン教授の協力を得るため、彼が手紙を書いたのが今回の物語の始まり。ちなみに、ファーストネームは「フォスタ ー 」というらしい。

考古学の権威! 有名な考古学者・・・くらいに思っていたら、考古学の権威と言われるほどの超有名人。ルークの父、クラ ー クも尊敬の眼差しを向けるほど。

そんな考古学の権威もレイトンの協力を仰くアスラント文明とは?

多彩な知識を持つ

考古学の知識もさることなから、機械にも造詣が深く、植物の知識も豊富なサ ー ハイマン。さらにはウィットなプリティッシュジョ ー クもお手の物。これも英国紳士のたしなみというもの?

飛行船の操縦技術も超一流だが、その技術は過去の苦い体験から学んだようだ 「たまたま呼んだ本に書いてあった」と言っているが、ひそかにこのような場面を想定していたのかもしれない・・・

#omfg im gonna!!!!!!!! KILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bc like #i always headcanoned desmond's daughter liked plants AND THE FACT HES WELL-VERSED IN BOTANY WHAT IF I KILLED MYSEL #they probably just slid it in as a “haha he also does this thing” but RAAAAAAAAAAGH

Rough Design

Lowered gaze/glasses? (Best guess. I struggled to read the handwriting here, sorry.) Large-ish mouth

(puzzle solving dialogue)

A Sad Past?

Sycamore has lost loved ones in the past, it seems. Speaking of which, his personal background is unknown. Could his sorrow be the driving force behind his research into the Azran Civilization..?

Head of character design Takuzo Nagano discusses the origins of Sycamore’s design.

When I first drew Sycamore’s character sheet, it was still undecided what sort of character he would be. As a result, I drew him based on the sort of character I wanted to make. The character sheet above shows him expressing a range of emotions, but typically, it is difficult to discern his true feelings based on his expression.

Incidentally, his glasses are fake. The reality is that he has two ‘faces’: wearing his glasses, he becomes Sycamore, the archaeologist. For his other face, he wears something over it as well :) To perform either of his two faces, there are particular items that he needs. It’s like Layton and his top hat.

Japanese below

Rough Design 眤は下ロジ気味　（pretty sure this is not what it says） 口大きめ

ナゾトキ Voice 「任せ方まえ、レイトン君」「まあ、こん十の方うラ」「れく当い解サくてはね」「研究者 Y して当然方よ」「茯ま、鈍フてはい茯いよラん」「想定してい方通 9 んフ方」 「私のナゾト十あ見せしよラ」 「ナゾ解守明力にラ」「ナゾは専門外んが,・・」「これでは Y 、ラ刻茯?」「私ガえふ答ま・・・」「答えこれガな?」 「引ま Y 、してやれ方茯」「不甲斐茯は・・」「過ラ認めくては」「ん方夫態方・・・」「イ也に答えがあ (I) ラの刻?」「計算誤っんようん・・・」

悲しい過去が? 愛する人を失った過去があるらしいサ ーハイマン。そういえば、彼の素性はあまり明らかにされていない。その悲しみがアスラント文明調査の原動力になっているのだろうか・・・

キャラテザイン担当長野拓造氏が語るサ ー ハイマン誕生秘話

サーハイマンの設定画を描いたときは、まだどんなキャラになるのか決まっていない状態でした。自分の中で、こういうキャラにしたいという願望で描いています。上の設定画では喜怒哀楽が出ていますが、普段は表情がわかりにくいサーハイマンの素顔です。

ちなみに彼のメガネは伊達メガネです。実は彼~には 2 つの顔があり、メカネをかけたときは、・考古学者サ ー 八イマン"になります。もうひとつの顔のときも、顔に何かつけてますよね(笑)。どちらも、彼が2つの顔を演じるために必要なアイテムなんです。レイトンの帽子みたいなものですね。

#hes so cunty with it whats wrong with this guy #love him

[brambletakato]

Oh yeah they left behind some unused text for what I assume to be an earlier version of Azran Legacy, so we get a bit of a look of what could've been but was unfortunately scrapped

Damn did you see the azrans fell?

They didn't show it in the game but I was actually frozen in the ice for a million years with Aurora. The camera work made it so that I was always out of frame, but I was there too

#JOKE

[brambletakato]

A few reference sketches of the outfits from the flashbacks where we get to see Azran times.

I had to interpret a few things as they weren’t visible from the image, but these are what I ended up with.

#these guys would love star trek (JOKE) #I find it interesting how its a mix of sci-fi interpretations and a dash of ancient costumes #thats definitely the Azran #ref

[brambletakato]
