Personality

L's careless, dishevled appearance hides his abilities as the best detective in the world. He second-guesses everything he sees, is extrememly analytical, and has amazing deduction skills. Because of this, he could control the world's police forces. Few people know his real identity, and almost no one knows his real name, as he goes by 'Ryuuzaki', a name taken from a previous killer that L had captured. Aside from his abilities, he has several quirks. He does't sit normally, he is will only eat sweets things - and lots of them, he stacks and arranges items like empty cartons, and he holds items with only the tips of his fingers. He is also often seen doing things considered impolite in public, such as biting his nails, slouching, chewing with his mouth open, talking with a full mouth and pointing out personal observations of people, regardless of how offensive they are.
