Neville
Template:Portrait-infobox Neville, the Bookish Father (Japanese: パパーラ Papāra) is the first Portrait Ghost that Luigi encounters in Luigi's Mansion. He is the husband of Lydia and father of Chauncey and the twins Henry and Orville. His usual activity is reading books, and he keeps a baby care diary.
At one point in the past, he was captured by Professor Elvin Gadd and turned into a portrait, but Neville was eventually set free again by King Boo. His portrait number in Professor E. Gadd's gallery is 1.
Luigi's Mansion
In Luigi's Mansion, Neville is one of the ghosts in Area 1 of the Mansion. Luigi finds him in the Study, where he is reading a book while sitting in a rocking chair. His only attack is sending a single levitating book after him. Like most Portrait Ghosts, Neville cannot be stunned by the flashlight normally. However, he occasionally yawns and stretches, at which point he becomes vulnerable to light and can be stunned to be re-captured by the Poltergust 3000. Upon defeat, a Treasure Chest appears in the Study, containing the key to the Master Bedroom.
The player can also have Luigi read Neville's Big Baby Care Diary in the bookshelf behind Neville's rocking chair. The diary provides the player with hints on how to win Henry and Orville's game of hide and seek.
