Tsugaru is a Shizuo-based character. He wears a blue yukata (which is like a kimono only for guys...) and he's basically really chill and nice. He was the first Shizuo look-alike character so they (the fandom) decided he would be pretty much the opposite of Shizuo. Basically he doesn't get pissed off at anything and he can be....well...kind of uke sometimes. In some interpretations. A lot of people like "The Trouble With Love Is~" and they switch in that one (spoilers....? D:) He's also sometimes employed as an author by most...authors... Lol. And Tsugaru's fandom match is Psyche. Whether or not you agree with that is up to you. Oh, and he also smokes that long old fashioned pipe thingy. I don’t know what it’s called and I’m too lazy to look it up, so if you really care, you can look it up. Haha.
Grrr I can’t find the original picture he comes from. He looks kind of pissy in this picture but this is him: https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-HBpGjMcz5r8/TYdO57ohymI/AAAAAAAAATA/u4U6zs_hJUg/s1600/Tsugaru+%2528Durarara%2529.jpg

Psyche is an Izaya look-alike. He wears white with pink trim and has those really expensive-looking headphones. He was also the first of the Izaya look-alikes (to my knowledge) so he has the opposite personality of Izaya: really nice, really innocent. It’s easy to make him cry. I don’t know what job people usually give him (maybe there isn’t one). But he goes with Tsugaru according to fandom. Some people also like him with Delic though.
This is the legit original art that Psyche came from: http://blog.animeinstrumentality.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Durarara-OST-Cover.jpg
Delic is another Shizuo. He’s actually kind of an asshole. Based on the fanon he has tons of sex, hahaha. He also wears white and pink and has some very unusual headphones and a weird CD player thingy. A lot of people have him as a host (yes as in Ouran High School Host Club…without the high school). His pairing match person is Hibiya, although as I said before, some people like him with Psyche.
The original picture that spawned Delic: http://anime-hall.ru/uploads/posts/2010-11/1289745323_durarara-original-soundtrack-2.jpg
Hibiya is another Izaya (I’m alternating in case you couldn’t tell, lol). He dresses like a Prince and a common phrase associated with him is “Princely dignity” (or “Princely indignity” if the case calls for it). There’s pretty much no context for him being a prince, but he has a crown and a cape (even a horse! The horse’s name is “Alfred” and he’s a typical white horse) and very nice fancy clothes. Whether he has delusions or no, he often calls people “commoner” (maybe with a preceding “filthy” if he really doesn’t like him). He’s basically a prude (See the fic “Painting it Black,” which makes specific use of that word) so he is very reserved about sex. Which gives Delic problems, since he, yanno, love you long time and all that bznss.

Tsukishima (and Hachimenroppi) are the newest to the fandom, although I think someone told me they were around way earlier and never got popular for some reason. Tsukishima is a Shizuo person. He wears basically the same clothes as Shizuo, only he has glasses, a lovely fluffy scarf, and a red bow tie instead of a black one. He also carries a messenger bag and in the original picture he’s at a train station and has a red train ticket in his mouth. He’s kind of super duper innocent, like Psyche and Hibiya combined maybe. I don’t know too much about him, and I could be wrong about all this, but this is my interpretation of what someone told me. He’s usually put as a messenger boy or like a delivery service. Oh also his name means “moon island.” Just for a fun fact. He is matched with Hachimenroppi. Some people just call him Tsuki.
Here’s the original picture for him: http://i53.tinypic.com/152ozk3.jpg
Hachimenroppi is an Izaya. His name means eight arms, six legs (I hope I didn’t confuse legs and arms, but I might have). Basically what you need to know is it means he’s a beast and can do pretty much anything. BUT ALSO: he’s a huge asshole. He hates humans (like the opposite of Izaya) and just in my personal opinion he’s kind of a bitch to write. Not that that means anything, lol. But he’s matched with Tsukishima, who warms his icy heart. Or something. He looks a lot like Izaya except his coat has red trim instead of white and he wears it on his shoulders. His shirt also has red on it, and I’ve seen it as both black and white. From the original picture it’s not clear. He also sometimes has these really nice boots that I would love to own (hahaha I’m getting so awkward and personal). He of course is matched with Tsukishima. Some people just call him Roppi.
Maybe someone can come by and fill in the blanks for the original pictures I couldn’t find: http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lkahgaDfZa1qfip3wo1_500.jpg But here’s Roppi.
