Quote: I Am Justice (not mine)
Light is a typical seventeen year old, except that he's a genius. While looking out the window of his class one day, he sees a black book fall out of the sky. After school ends, he goes over and picks up the book, with the words "Death Note" written in a creepy font. While looking over the book, he reads that the book will kill the person whose name is written in it.
At first, Light doesn't believe it, but ends up taking the book home, where he writes down the name of a criminal that was on TV. As the book said, the man died. Light realizes his amazing possibilities, and starts killing criminals who have done major or minor crimes, or people he feels the world will be better off without.
After a few days of messing around with the Death note, he is confronted by Ryuk, the former owner of the Death Note. Ryuk gives him a lot of information regarding the Death Note. But even despite his scary appearance, Ryuk is crazy for apples, which Light supplies him with. Light believes that he can use the notebook to create a finer world, embarking on a campaign to weed society of criminals, malcontents, and others who (in his mind) are holding humanity back. At the same time, he expects that fear of his power will cow those already inclined towards good behavior.
In other words, he’s quite, quite mad. However, his madness is hidden behind a mask of good looks, social grace, and remarkable cunning. Even when an international police investigation grows dangerously close to finding him out, he’s able to creatively employ the powers of the “death note” to keep one step ahead of his adversaries. That means leaving a considerable body count in his wake, of course, but in his mind the ends more than justify the means.
