Honor Gesst

Honor Gesst was a guest in the mayor's dinner party which lead to arson incident.

History
Honor Gesst first appeared in Turnabout in Flames. She's first seen with her brother Warren Gesst in the mayor's lounge. When Argus talks to Warren about his wooden leg, she immediately crouches down and rubs his leg for a long period of time. This made Warren and Argus mildly uncomfortable. In the dining room, she tells the mayor to go look for the others. After fetching Argus, they all notice the smell of fire in which she rudely bumps to be the one to escape first. After the incident, the prosecutor requested that they're left in heavy surveillance in the mayor's lounge.

Throughout the course of the trial, Argus realized that Honor Gesst was the culprit behind the arson. This was because she was the one that placed the gas on her brother's wooden leg when she was rubbing it. After taking the stand, she tries to establish her alibi as means to prove that she couldn't have started the fire from the dining room. Argus was able to show that she used the stolen crossbow drenched with gasoline inside her briefcase to aim it through the candle, hitting a tree leading to the kitchen. After being asked to open the briefcase she screams as the money flies out, revealing the gas stain inside.

Argus revealed that she snuck into the estate prior to the visit in order to block the exhaust dust. After entering with Warren, she placed the gas on his wooden leg in the lounge. After leaving, she spiked the dinner in the hallway. She snuck in the kitchen to spread the gas there and placed the can there to frame Cooke Err. She also placed some of the gas in her briefcase in order to prepare for the crossbow trick. After stealing the crossbow she went into the kitchen, puzzled by the lack of food. She told the mayor to search for the others. After he left she shot the arrow to the tree which led the fire to the kitchen.

With the plot revealed she confesses to the crime but stayed silent on the motive. When Warren thought of her reasons after the trial, he realized that it was related to The War.

Personality
She seems to be a very bored and passive person on the outside. She's also extremely calculative and intelligent as she pulled off a crime that took suspicion off of her for most of the case. Even when her crime is exposed, she manages to keep her calm persona.
