Character: Near
Series: Death Note (manga)
Age: 18

Canon: (Warning! Contains mild spoilers for Death Note)

What would you do if you could kill anyone just by writing down their name in a special notebook? If you were Yagami Light you would use this otherworldly power to pick off criminals in order to become the god of a new perfect world. But it’s never that easy. People everywhere take notice of these mysterious deaths and it doesn’t take long for L, the world’s greatest detective, to challenge Light’s power. The two end up in a deadly game of subterfuge and tricks though sadly, in the end Light proves too much for L. The challenge of stopping the mysterious killings then falls to Near and Mello, orphans trained to take over in L’s place.

Near is a quirky genius; childish and yet endlessly logical and analytical. Growing up an orphan preparing to be the world’s best detective doesn’t leave a lot of time for social development. He takes on the most challenging cases as a way to show his intelligence and skill rather than out of some higher sense of right and wrong. Cold and often insulting to people, he cares more about winning than anything else. In fact he often sees people around him as just pieces in his puzzles. Near does his best thinking while playing with toys and games all while wearing pajamas, despite his age. He has taken on the title of ‘L’ and uses it when addressing the public.

Sample Post:

People of Camp Fuck You Die; this is L.

Your director has called me in to solve the murder of Stephan Debussey. It should be noted that I normally have no interest in such a simple case. It is insulting to think that the greatest detective in the world would be needed to find the culprit of a single murder. Even in such unique circumstances as this camp has to offer. But because the situation has become so entangled that suspects are being held for months and even years at a time it seems you may be in need of my services after all. I am willing to give my full attention to this case as long as I am allowed to do so on my own terms. From now on, I will be in charge of this investigation.

In order to investigate properly, however, I will be in need of some assistance. I can hardly be expected to do the amount of detective work required to solve this case by myself. The “help” I was provided when I arrived here turned out to be a couple of reanimated corpses and they didn’t even prove useful for manual labor. One of them could not keep his arms attached long enough to move boxes for me. You may have seen the other one up a tree, where he has been since I asked him to hang surveillance equipment for me. I’m sorry if that causes anyone trouble. But obviously I will be requiring some new help.

Along with a few competent subordinates I will also require some better supplies. My aforementioned useless assistants brought me a totally unacceptable assortment of goods. One box seemed to be full of nothing but assorted make up items; and another with magazines claiming to have the latest intelligence on some oddly named city in Montana. If any young girl in camp is missing the contents of their bedroom, please let me know. I’m not sure what ‘body glitter’ is exactly, but I am certain I don’t need it. Most of these things will be of help to me in solving this crime.

The only remotely helpful things I found in the box were these so called “Bratz” figures. But they will only come in handy if it turns out the suspects have unnaturally large heads.
