^- Law L -^

L Lawliet is a 25-year-old Japanese man, though he looks like a 17- or 18-year-old. He has messy black hair. His eyes are black, and his pupils are always dilated. His skin is so pale it takes on a deathly pallor. This is likely due to his infrequent exposure to sunlight. His skin contrasts sharply with the deep, dark circles under his eyes, a result of his lack of sleep, which he maintains by consuming all sorts of sweets and caffeine, giving him a tired appearance. He is approximately 1.79 meters tall, but appears shorter because he always walks with his back to the ground.

He has a fragile appearance due to his astonishing thinness, yet he has proven to be quite strong in combat. He wears the same clothes every day: a worn, white, long-sleeved t-shirt and baggy jeans that are a bit too long. He usually goes barefoot, although he has been seen wearing white sneakers.

He exhibits unusual behaviors, such as squatting anywhere, claiming that his ability to concentrate decreases by 40% if he doesn't, or picking up objects with his fingertips. He also habitually puts his thumb to his lips and plays with it to help him think, and he bites his nails.

He's a social misfit, struggling to connect with others. He lacks tact, and his extreme honesty can easily hurt feelings. He's serious, quiet, always maintains a neutral expression, and almost never smiles. Cold, perceptive, intelligent, bold, quick, and silent, L is a very introverted character who avoids social interaction and doesn't usually trust anyone, a fact he readily acknowledges. Strong-willed, direct, and blunt, his voice is deep and whispery, barely audible.
