About
A brief biography of the sequence of events that followed my introduction into the Kira case, and a few "interesting facts" prior to it. I may pop in here or there to edit these facts. smileL Lawliet, commonly referred to by his alias "L", is considered the world's greatest detective, and he takes on the Kira investigation because it "intrigues him". Out of his many obsticals, L functions as Kira's primary antagonist throughout his "reign".
His date of birth is Halloween of 1979, making him 25 when he dies on November 5, 2004. His height and weight are 5'11"/110lbs, which means he is severely underweight. It is implied that L was a former resident of Wammy's House, one of Watari's orphanages, as well as a safe haven and educational facility specifically for intellectually-gifted children. Therefore, similar to Near and Mello, L's abilities were discovered while living there, and he is most likely an orphan.
L, who also uses the aliases Hideki Ryuga, Ryuuzaki, Eraldo Coil, and Deneuve, the latter two for which he has developed reputations as the second- and third-best detectives in the world, is quite secretive and only communicates with the world through his assistant Watari. He never shows his face to the world, instead representing himself with a capital L in Old English 5 Font. After meeting the Kira investigation team, he requests that the task force refer to him as Ryuuzaki for discretion. Even the Kira investigation team were never informed of his true name, and never have since.
His disheveled and languid (mind you, these are "synonyms" for "attractive" sweatdrop ) appearance masks his great powers of deduction and insight. He tends to second-guess everything he is presented with, and is extremely meticulous and analytical. He has several quirks such as preferring to crouch rather than sit, eating only sweet foods like desserts and fruits, and holding items very delicately. L stayed in England for five years, and during that time he was the champion in tennis for the England Junior Cup. L also secretly assumes the identities of the world's second and third best detectives (Eraldo Coil and Deneuve, respectively), a fact he and the Kira Investigation Team members keep to themselves, and still do, lest they suffer the consequences. smile
L suspects early in the investigation that Yagami Raito is Kira, but cannot obtain any concrete evidence. In several situations, Raito seems to be proven innocent by the circumstances, but L remains skeptical. If Raito were Kira, the case would be solved, and L has trouble letting go of this simple and complete solution. (With good reason!)
Because of his initial (and correct) suspicions of Raito, L decides to join To-Oh University, the university that he attends, using the name of Hideki Ryuga for investigative purposes. After L introduces himself as Ryuga, Raito does not attempt to kill him since the name is conspicuously fake. Also, he has no way to know at the time whether the person is the real L or merely a proxy acting under orders. Raito also reasons that L would have already introduced himself to Raito's father earlier, and thus that if he somehow killed L, he would be easily uncovered as Kira. (That over-analytical b*****d! mad ) Raito also fears that if he wrote Hideki Ryuga into the Death Note, that the face of the pop singer from which the alias was derived would enter his head, and would be killed by accident, which would lead L to the obvious conclusion that he was Kira.
Although L cannot shake the conclusion that Raito is the first Kira, he is the only person L has ever identified or connected with. He has even openly stated on one occasion that although it would hurt his pride to admit that he has been wrong, he hoped that he would be incorrect in his prior accusation that Raito was Kira. Despite Kira being L's opponent, at the core, Raito and L share many traits, including extraordinary intelligence and strong opinions of what constitutes true justice. Furthermore, L can easily present his conclusions publicly at any time, and with his reputation, is taken seriously.
Eventually, Raito tricks Rem into killing L for his own personal gain, making her believe that she must kill him for the sake of Misa's life (this may actually be true, as when Rem writes L's name into the Death note she disintegrates, which only happens when a shinigami writes in a Death Note to protect a human's life). L's last sight before death is Raito triumphantly smiling over his defeated rival, and in his last moment L confirms to himself that Raito is the first Kira.
...Naturally, L resurrected himself using will power and WIN alone, causing Raito to spontaneously combust, of course! heart

In a nutshell, I'm you average, every-day, dead, super genius detective with a fetish for sweets, toes, and intriguing things. (Raito)
I like to meet "aquaintences"; howver, only a select few can earn the right of being my "friend".
I have a silly side, but you'll usually have to work hard on trying to find it under my deviod exterior.

Feel free to leave me a random comment- I'll answer it if it "interests me". smile
