L is a very slim, pale, tall young man with messy neck-length black hair and black eyes. One of his most noticeable features is the shadow below each of his eyes, a result of him being an insomniac. L is always shown to be wearing a pair of blue jeans and a long-sleeved white shirt. He almost never wears shoes or socks, preferring to go barefoot, even while in public. This was shown when he visited Light Yagami's school and was seen barefoot while sitting on a bench, not bothering to wear his shoes until he got up to walk. L also tends to hunch over when walking.

L's most prominent character trait is his secretiveness. He rarely goes out into the outside world when he’s not investigating a case, has never shown his face to the world, and communicates almost exclusively via his assistant and only friend, Watari. When meeting face-to-face with others, he never gives out his real name, instead using a variety of aliases, such as "Ryuzaki" (when interacting with the Japanese task force), "Hideki Ryuga" (when meeting Light at his school), "Eraldo Coil" and "Deneuve" (under which he has developed reputations as the world's second and third-greatest detectives).

Additionally, due to having minimal interaction with other people, L has very poor social skills, and is prone to performing actions or having habits considered rude and inappropriate, including eating with his mouth open, talking with his mouth full, placing feet on furniture, biting fingernails, etc. L also has several quirks, such as preferring to crouch rather than sit, eating only sweet foods (like desserts, candies, and fruits), and holding items by using only a thumb and a finger.

Despite his disheveled appearance and odd habits, L is extremely intelligent, and has a keen mind rivaling that of protagonist Light Yagami. Although he doesn't have any good social skills, L has an analytical understanding and knowledge of human nature, which he uses to his enemies' disadvantage, such as when he tricks Light into killing an impostor of himself on live TV and pinpointing his whereabouts to the Kanto region of Japan (since the broadcast was only airing there at the time), betting on the slim chance that Kira would kill someone who made a stand against him. He also creates false information and leads to try to bait Kira into revealing himself, which nearly succeeded. When presented with any information, L tends to meticulously second-guess anything he's given, and analyses it for any inconsistencies or clues.

L's entire life involved protecting others through intelligence. From a young age, he used his extraordinary mind to prevent World War III, saving countless lives before even reaching adulthood. He then took part in multiple criminal cases and captured dangerous murderers across the world (gaining the title of the world's best detective) without ever revealing who he was, proving his brilliance served justice rather than fame or self-interest. He also proved later in the story that all three of the best-ranked detectives were actually him, emphasizing his vital role in catching murderers and criminals globally. L has constantly risked his own life to save his colleagues from death and to get to the truth, such as when he was handcuffing himself to Light Yagami, asking Kira to kill him to test if he could do so unconditionally, warning his team whenever they were in danger, and stopping them from rushing into bad situations that could kill them after analyzing the situation.

The purpose of Death Notes are to take human lives, thereby increasing the lifespan of the Shinigami who uses it. There are many rules governing how the Death Note can be used, though the most pivotal rule is simply that "the human whose name is written in this note shall die." The King of Death is the one who makes and controls the rules of the Death Note, and he is able to make new rules as he sees fit.

.Relationships

Light Yagami: L views Light as the prime suspect Kira, orchestrating elaborate traps like the Lind L. Tailor broadcast and Lindbergh kidnapping replica to expose him. Their intellectual duel evolves into a twisted respect. Light is a young man, standing at above average height with light-brown hair and brown eyes. During Part I, when not wearing his school uniform, which consists of a tan suit and red tie, he dresses fairly casually, sometimes sporting a dress shirt underneath a jacket or a V-neck sweater with a collared t-shirt underneath. During Part II, if not wearing a similar style of clothes, he is seen wearing a suit. Light is characterized as hardworking, talented, and a natural genius. Highly perceptive and good with problem-solving skills, Light is a skilled planner and good at mapping out scenarios. Furthermore, Light is very popular among his peers and adored by his family members. However, his high intelligence, academic achievements, and constant praise from adults laid the foundation for an innate hubris and arrogance that quickly escalated after he adopted the role of Kira. Light also struggled with a feeling of boredom that was quelled once he began using the death note. Light has no feelings towards Misa.

Watari: Watari, or Quillsh Wammy, raised L at Wammy's House and serves as his loyal assistant, managing logistics like the task force setup in Tokyo. Their bond is one of deep trust, with Watari's death later in the series devastating L's operations against Kira. Watari has white hair and gray eyes. When in disguise as L's assistant, he wears a long black trench coat and a hat that covers his face. After he reveals his appearance to the Japanese Task Force, Watari wears a black tuxedo with a black hat and glasses. Watari is a famous inventor and the founder of Wammy's House, an orphanage for gifted children in Winchester, England. Using the fortune he made as an inventor, he built an orphanage that teaches children with special talents and sends them out into the world. Before the Task Force is formed, he is the only person known to have seen L and the only one capable of contacting L directly. Like L, he represents himself with a Cloister Black "W" on computer screens. Since L's time at Wammy's House, Watari has been a fatherly figure to him, though in his role as L's handler, he acts as a butler. Watari is well-trained in espionage and marksmanship. According to Death Note 13: How to Read, Watari likes Earl Grey tea and dislikes dirty rooms.

Misa Amane: L suspects Misa as the second Kira due to her connection to Light and Shinigami eyes, subjecting her to intense interrogation and confinement. He manipulates her through psychological pressure, viewing her as a key to unraveling the Death Note's secrets. Misa is a short, slender, attractive young woman with long, straight, golden-blonde hair, most commonly styled with a portion of her hair in pigtails tied with red bands, but occasionally worn loose as well. In the anime, it seems that she was a brunette at one point. Misa often dresses in a Gothic and Punk fashion, though noticeably less after the time skip. She also typically paints her nails bright red or dark purple and wears bright red lipstick. Misa is very outgoing and is shown to be quite popular due to her career. She attracts a large crowd while visiting Light at his university campus.[5] She is hyperactive, impulsive, and otherwise childlike, evidenced by her tendency to speak in the third person. Despite being considered idiotic by many, Misa is shown to have moments of intelligence, such as when she successfully tricks Kyosuke Higuchi into revealing himself to be the Yotsuba Kira. She is very careless in her acts as the Second Kira, which leads to her being arrested and put in confinement. As she likely didn't know the Death Note could manipulate victims, she mailed the Kira tapes herself but failed to remove her fingerprints and left easily-found DNA on the envelopes. She also completely ignored Light's order to stay away from him (as he was already suspected of being Kira) and thus was seen in his company — narrowing down L's suspicions as to who was the Second Kira. Despite her typically cheerful personality, Misa has been mentally afflicted by seeing her parents murdered right before her eyes. It is unclear how much the trauma has affected Misa psychologically, but in the films, Rem indicates that Misa went through a deep depression immediately after she discovered the murderer was acquitted of the crime. After the murderer is later killed by Kira, Misa is incredibly grateful, and her intense appreciation and hero-worship initially fuels her actions as the Second Kira. After she becomes emotionally attached to Light, her behavior is strongly motivated by love. Misa is very reckless with life, both her own and others. She has few qualms about twice halving her lifespan in order to get the Shinigami Eyes which she uses to kill innocent people in order to get her way. These include news broadcasters who were critical of Kira and policemen who meddle with her plan to meet Kira. Although she is generally nice to those she meets, she can also be quite cruel: she tells Light that she would kill any other girls he dates,[8] despite said girls being part of his plan to appear as a normal young man to the investigators and deflect suspicion from himself and Misa. Light Yagami is an important figure in Misa's life, and she frequently comments on him being so, often declaring her love for him despite little reciprocation. She is faithful to Light to the point of refusing to perform a kiss with fellow actor Hideki Ryuga while making a film out of her fidelity. When she and Light lose their memories of being Kiras, she agrees to help captue Kira, whom she views as the avenger of her family, out of love for Light.

Soichiro Yagami: As head of the Japanese task force and Light's father, Soichiro collaborates closely with L, providing police resources during the Kira pursuit. L respects his integrity but tests his loyalty, such as in the warehouse standoff where Soichiro wields a gun against potential threats. Soichiro is a fairly tall middle-aged man. He wears a pair of rectangular spectacles at most times and dresses in formal Western clothing. He has a mustache, and his short, neatly combed-back black hair grays as the series progresses. Soichiro is a kind man with a strong sense of justice. Ht cares greatly for his family and the members of the Japanese Task Force. He is a serious and responsible man that gains the respect of many. He has a strong sense of duty, and even after the police stop funding the Kira investigation he continues trying to solve the case with the Task Force. Soichiro was often absent from home, meaning that he spent little time with his family. However, this is in part to his motto, "justice first, family later" (a belief Light ends up adopting). Throughout the Kira investigation, In order to prove it, he goes so far as to kidnap Light (who had given up the Death Note and lost his memories of ever using it and his girlfriend, Misa Amane (who had also given up her Death Note and had no memories of it, and put them in a situation in which if Light were Kira, Light would have no choice but to kill him. Thanks to L's accusations of Light being Kira, Soichiro's role as a detective is challenged and so are his deontological values he holds, allowing L to take drastic and illegal measures simply in order to prove to himself that his son isn't Kira, such as when he allowed L to place surveillance cameras in the Yagami household, a move that Soichiro would otherwise detest and disagree with thanks in part to its unlawful nature.
