Character Background:
In the town of Beika, house address 2-21, stands a tall Western manor. There lives one young male by the name of Kudo Shinichi, a 17 year old high school student. But he isn’t just any highschooler, he’s in fact, the Savior of the Police. Yes, known as the Detective of the East, he spends his times solving cases as an amateur detective. His name is known far and wide within the police force and Japan as the only son of the world wide mystery novelist father and legendary actress mother. However, his fame is not entirely because of his parents but his own skills of deduction. There’s no case he can’t solve and the police are always ringing Holmes of the 20th Century up to solve their cases for them. Who knew detectives could be so popular, enough to have a fan club?
As if his brain wasn’t enough, god granted him looks and athletic ability. Shinichi had picked up soccer to hone his athletic ability (just like Holmes practiced fencing and boxing) and boy was he some soccer player. From the first year he joined in middle school, he had immediately become a regular Midfielder. From then on, his skills grew enough to become scouted by the J-League. Except he quit once he advanced to high school, so he could spend all his time for solving cases and reading mystery novels. He was quite a mystery freak. Afterall, his house had mystery novels from all over the world. You can imagine he grew to up to be quite a bookworm. His special favorite was none other than the great Sherlock Holmes. He practically worshipped that detective and strived to be just like him (which included picking up the violin). Once you had him start about Holmes he never stopped talking about him and everything about him. He has to be the biggest fanboy of Holmes in Tokyo. It was that bad.
But as you could see, yes, he had everything that anyone could ever wish for -money, fame, and looks. On top of that, his parents were in Los Angeles so he basically lived alone in the huge manor with no restraints. What could go wrong?
Well.
It all happened one day when he went on a date with his childhood friend, Mouri Ran at a theme park called Tropical Land. There, just as always, he solved a murder and was praised by the police, bystanders, and etc. As they were walking home his eye caught sight of a very suspicious man in black. His curiosity getting better of him, he chased that man and caught sight of a blackmail transaction occurring. Too involved with spying on the two, he didn’t notice another man in black coming behind him. Struck down with a bat, he was forced to swallow an experimental poison that an organization had created called APTX (apotoxin) 4869. However, instead of killing Shinichi like the men had hoped, he was shrunk to the size of little child. With the advice of his next door neighbor and good friend, Professor Agasa Hiroshi, he hides his true identity and moves into his childhood friend Ran’s house, whose father was a private detective.
Thus starts the life of Edogawa Conan, the first grader.
Things were tough at first, no one would listen to a child, he had to redo his primary education, he didn’t have strength and stamina, and worst of all, he couldn’t just walk into a scene and solve a case. No, he had to shoot Ran’s father, Mouri Kogorou with a watch-shaped sedative gun , then use his voice changing bow tie to speak and solve the case in Kogorou’s voice. This was a huge blow to Shinichi’s pride, who always liked his name being linked with the solving of the case. Yet, as he learns, being a kid means you gotta suck up that pride.
He later meets with a girl that had created the APTX4869 who had taken the drug in hopes of suicide, but instead ends up also as a young child. Formerly named Miyano Shiho (codename Sherry), she now hides herself at Professor Agasa’s house as Haibara Ai. She provides to be a source of information for the men that had attacked Shinichi and a strong ally as she is going through the same thing. She also brings the hope that a cure for the APTX4869 to be made so Conan can return to being Shinichi.
Haibara identifies the organization as just the Black Organization, a mysterious syndication that involves in the crimes ranging from blackmail to assassination. The exact reasons for the organization is unknown, but we do know that they were interested in immortality as the APTX4869 seemed to have been made to obtain that. Another thing known about the Black Organization is that as you can see with Haibara, their codenames are all names of alcohol. The person that had forced Shinichi to drink the drug was Gin and the other was his partner, Vodka. Others known are Vermouth, a female master of disguise, Chianti and Korn, snipers, and Kir, a double spy for the FBI/CIA.
As Conan team up with the FBI to find information about the Black Organization to destroy it and get his actual body back, he solves cases as Mouri Kogorou, all at the same time trying to keep his identity a secret from Ran whilst trying to keep(? Start?) a relationship with her.
..It’s hard being a 17 year old stuck in a 7 year old body.
People would use adjectives such as calm, collected, cool, smart, logical when describing Kudo Shinichi in the papers. His friends would say all that plus athletic and caring of people. However, if you ask Ran, he was just a mystery fanatic. His world revolves around mystery and his lover would be cases. There was nothing about mystery he disliked. While that was what made Kudo Shinichi, Kudo Shinichi, it was also a fault of his. On and on he would go, and once he got started there was no stopping. Another fault was his pride. High as a mountain, it was hard to admit his faults. It was understandable, he had skill to back him up. Although the public saw his as a cool, mature highschooler, in reality, he’s rather childish in the fact that when something he likes had been said something bad, he completely dislikes it.
His hero is Sherlock Holmes, and the way he deduces a crime was quite similar to him. Shinichi even picked up Holmes’ habit of putting his hands together in front of his mouth when contemplating. Just like Holmes, he had a knack for finding things and putting them together like a puzzle. He’s also flexible which allows him to think outside the box. His concentration is unparalleled as well. Once he finds something he’s interested in, nothing else matters. If he’s reading a book or figuring something out, he forgets to sleep or eat. That may be a pro but the con is that he didn’t realize someone coming up behind him, thus resulting him shrinking.
Now saying that he was prideful and that he wanted to be just like Holmes may sound like he was a complete snob (although he was rather intolerable of people who were ignorant and stupid) but that’s not true! Shinichi is a kind boy at heart, with a strong morals and sense of justice. Which means he would reach out a helping hand to anyone, even a criminal. A prime example of that would be when he went to New York and along with Ran, saved a murderer from falling off a safety ladder. When asked why he replied “I don’t care about a reason for a person killing a person, but there’s no logical reason for a person helping a person, is there?” Of course that doesn’t mean he would let the suspect run of course, as he believes no crime, no matter what the reason, should be forgiven, but at the same time he believes no person, no matter how bad, deserves to die.
Shinichi is also loving in the sense that once you enter his inner ring, he would protect you no matter what. It’s hard to enter his bubble, but it’s even harder to get pushed back out again. Also rather pure, his first love had been his childhood friend, and has continued to love her even now (resulting in a grand total of 5 years of having romantic feelings toward her).
Now Edogawa Conan. He is the same as Shinichi at root, but because of his environment and incidents he’s been through there’s been a definite change.
The biggest is his ego. It’s been deflated. Quite a lot. He no longer yearns for the spotlight and in fact does his best to not let his name be released to the public. He’s learned to stay in the shadows and move the pieces from there. He’s learned that he can’t do everything on his own.
However, there are benefits of being a 7 year old. The most being nobody really suspects you. He can act like a curious young boy nosing around. He can drop hints as if a child found something unusual. He uses his age and appearance to full benefit while asking questions and favors. Yes, he has become more manipulative and planning. That doesn’t mean his recklessness from before had been cured. No, there are times when it’s increased, because sometimes he just can’t keep it in mind that his body is of a primary school child.
But even if it’s body of a child, he has the mind of an adult. And there’s no case he can’t solve, because there’s only one truth.
Abilites/Special Powers:
Let me say this first: while evidences might prove other, Conan is human. He has no special powers. In fact, he doesn’t even believe in the supernatural.
With that in mind let’s start.
He’s smart for one. Incredibly smart. Probably a genius. It’s not just book smarts either, he knows street smarts. As far as we know, he has knowledge in medicine, biology, technology, physics, psychology, and law. He probably knows a little bit of everything, no one would be surprised. What’s more important is that he had knowledge yes, and he has the ability to be able to piece it together the correct way. He knows how to use that knowledge to his full extent.
He’s resourceful. He uses his environment to the best of his advantage to get through everyday happenings or dead-or-alive situations. He can pretty much survive in the wilderness by using his knowledge of science and logical deduction. Which brings us to the next point.
He’s logical. He’s doesn’t panic (unless it’s someone he cares in danger) and he doesn’t lose his cool. It’s quite useful in all those tight situations he’s in. He has the ability to lead and maneuver from the front or from the back. He sees the whole picture and figures out the best way to make something happen.
He has reflexes and athletic ability. Quite a ridiculous amount for an indoor bookworm type actually. His soccer skills are pro status, meaning his kicks and the things he kicks? Pretty much instant KO. Combined with his Power Enhancing Kick Shoes, he can break a big tree in half especially now that he has an Anywhere Ball Dispensing Belt, which, as it’s called, allows Conan to dispense a soccer ball anywhere from his belt. He also has a Solar Powered Turbo Skateboard, in which he can chase a car with it. And his skills on it are ridiculous. He jumps from a theme park ride slide onto a roller coaster rail. He can do flips and block bullets with it as well. However, even though he has almost parkour like chasing abilities, he lacks stamina and strength as he’s stuck in the body of a 7 year old.
He has guts. In other words, he’s reckless. He goes forth with no fear and will do anything to hunt for the truth. The only thing he fears are his good friends being injured.
He’s an expert marksman. He can shoot a string from a helicopter. And he rarely shoots off target. So despite his glasses, he has great eyesight. He also has great hearing as well, as he’s able to hear the slightest change in sound. Although he can’t sing to save his life, he has perfect pitch and knows what note is perfectly. He can play the violin too, yet has a destructive sense of singing. It’s quite a mystery.
Those are most of his abilities and with the help of his gadgets made by Professor Agasa, he’s pretty much someone you never want to fight against, even if he is just a kid. I mean, he knocked out 7 trained military men. He defeated a people shooting at him from a helicopter. And even if he looses he’ll keep coming back up again no matter what. He Never. Gives. Up. Ever.
Some other things he can do…
-Drive a car and motorboat
-Maneuver a helicopter and plane
-Use a gun
-Dismantle a bomb
-Hack a computer
-Epic acting skills
His gadgets he usually has on are…
-Voice Changing Bow Tie = You can change your voice to anyone’s. And it’s shaped like a bowtie. He has a button-shaped sticker speaker so he can say things from a distance.
-Watch Shaped Sedative Gun = The watch shoots out a sedative needle that can apparently knock out an elephant for at least 30 minutes. The needle dissolves(?) once in contact with human skin. However, it can only fit one needle at a time. It also lights up like a flashlight.
-Modified Glasses = His glasses are able to listen into conversations and track a GPS through a small microphone + tracking device. He has quite many of those GPS it seems.
-Elasticity Suspenders = It’s suspenders. That are elastic. And it stretches to forever. You can tie to heavy objects and pull them up. Or you can bungee jump off the Tokyo Tower with it.
-Power Enhancing Kick Shoes = It enhances the feet muscle through electricity and magnetic fields. It can kick things enough to kill people if he wanted to. He uses it with his Anywhere Ball Dispensing Belt to kick soccer balls at suspects.
His weaknesses are…
-Fail singing abilities
-Close people in danger
-Lack of stamina (low immune system? He seems to be small, even for a 7 year old)
-Black and white morals
-Too much concentration, causing him to forget his surroundings
Third-Person Sample:
Conan lighted the dark space under the bed with his flashlight, looking for the last few pieces of the puzzle to complete the picture. Everything would make sense, the moving corpse, the poison, the scratch marks, the trick. He could hear the adults talking about something, probably the man who had committed suicide. His ears tuned it out, it was unnecessary information. All his concentration was focused on searching, the blue eyes quickly scanning across, but not missing a single dust.
And there it was. The box and the sheet with the tapes. Conan could hear the pieces falling into place. The “scarlet thread of murder” as the great Holmes had put had been unraveled and now all he had to do was expose it to the public. With a smug smile, he poked his head out of from the bed, his mind quickly forming the best way to put the truth in the light. He would had to use Sonoko’s voice this time. ’The best way to explain the case in her voice would be…’
Conan was so involved in his thought that he didn’t notice for a split second that he had come out from under the bed to a field of snow. He blinked his round blue eyes once, twice, before emitting a surprised sound. ’W-Woah woah woah wait what?! Am I dream-…But I was just at a crime scene with Ran and Sonoko. There was a dead body and I found all the evidence needed and… …Is this a dream? Or was that a dream? Which is it? Did someone kidnap me and dump off at Hokkaido?’ Conan immediately shook that thought of his head. ’That’s stupid. Calm down, and take in the surroundings. The sun’s high up right now, yet it was almost setting the last I remember. But I’m not thirsty or hungry so it can’t be that I was asleep for the whole day. ……..This make no sense at all!’
He shuffled his hair in frustration when the corner of his eye caught sight of a huge mansion. He hesitated for a moment, wondering if that obviously suspicious building was a trap or not. However a sneeze made him choose his mind. He was going to freeze if he stayed so he had to go over, trap or not.
First-Person Sample:
Um…helloooo~? Is anybody home? I’m sorry I entered without permission but I think I got lost. Can anybody tell me where I am? I hope nobody minds I entered with my shoes on. Can I also borrow a telephone? My cell phone doesn’t work and I should call my guardian...
Hello?
…
[ Conan quickly sticks a GPS on the door in a place hard to see at a quick glance. Curiously looking around he walks without trying make as much sound as possible, his eyes narrowed to not miss any detail. He didn’t look or feel like a 7 year old at all, yet he was ready to switch back to his childish act as soon as someone came ]
