Mello

They complemented each other perfectly: Mello is fire, emotion, drama and forward movement, and Matt is ice, calm, the perfect rear and a friend who will cover for you no matter what happens.

Real Name: *Miles Jeevas (Mail Jeevas / マイル＝ジーヴァス).

• Nickname: *Matt (Matt / マット).

• Date of Birth: *February 1, 1990.

• Height and Weight: *168 cm / 52 kg.

• Status: *The third successor of L from Wammy's House, Mello's only true friend and ally.

• Main Passion: *Video games and smoking.

• Appearance: *

• Hairstyle and Face: *A shaggy cap of reddish-brown hair and a permanent smirk.

• Glasses: *His main feature is his round yellow (or greenish) goggles, which he almost never takes off.

• Clothes: *Comfortable, slightly casual style - striped red and black long sleeve, worn jeans, vest with a fur collar and boots.

• Personality: *

• Indifference and Relaxation: *It seems that nothing in this life is capable of throwing Matt off track. Potentially, he could have fought for the status of №1, but he was simply lazy.

• Gaming addiction: *He is completely addicted to video games. Matt is literally inseparable from his portable console (similar to Game Boy / Nintendo DS) - he plays while driving, during surveillance and even in dangerous situations.

• Loyalty: *Matt is the only person Mello completely trusted. When Mello left the orphanage, Matt went after him. He wasn't fighting for power, but simply helping his friend because he cared about him.

• Skills: *

• Hacking and Surveillance: *Matt is a high-level hacker and observation genius. While Mello ran the mafia, Matt hacked systems, monitored Near's headquarters, and tracked Kiyomi Takada's movements.

• Driving: He's a skilled driver (his red Roadster is a work of art) and knows how to evade pursuit.

Chocolate Addiction: *Mello constantly crushes and chews chocolate. This isn't just a "look"—like L (who ate sweets), Mello uses glucose to fuel his brain, plus it's his way of coping with stress and neurosis.

• Speech Pattern: *In the original, he speaks brashly, using harsh, sometimes crude language. He lacks L's mannerisms or Near's childish aloofness.
• Attitude Towards People: He's willing to sacrifice others for his cause, but he has a sense of honor. For example, he sincerely respected and loved his friend Matt.

When Mello left the orphanage at 15, he didn't have L's resources.
Infiltration: He left for the United States and, within a couple of years, established connections with one of the largest mafia groups (Rodd Ross's group).
Getting a foothold: Thanks to his *sharp mind, ruthlessness, and ability to predict his enemies' moves, he quickly became the de facto leader of the mafia. The gangsters, who initially rejected the "boy," began to fear and respect him.

• Blackmail tactics: He used the mafia as cannon fodder and a resource, obtaining weapons, helicopters, satellite communications, and money.

Unlike the "robotic" Near, Mello is driven by passion, anger, resentment and pride.
He doesn't just want to catch Kira - he needs to do it before Nia does to prove to the world (and himself) that he's better.
His main weakness is impulsiveness. If provoked, he might make a rash move. But his greatest strength is unpredictability.

At the L-class orphanage for gifted children (Wammy's House), Mello always ranked second in academics. Near consistently held first place.
Nia was a natural genius and completely indifferent to grades.
Mello worked as hard as he could, but still lost.
This gave him a profound inferiority complex. When L died, Mello refused to work with Near, saying, "I won't team up with you. We don't get along."

Scar: After blowing up the mafia headquarters, he developed a massive, jagged scar. It runs across the entire left side of his face (from his forehead, through his eye, to his jaw) and down to his shoulder. Style Change: He stops combing his hair perfectly and starts wearing leather jackets with fur collars, gloves, and sunglasses. He doesn't disguise the scar, turning it into an element of his menacing charisma.

Hairstyle: *A neat golden bob with thick, straight bangs that reach to the eyebrows.

• Face: *Very refined, almost girlish features, which make his emotionality and aggression appear even more striking.
• Clothing: Tight leather pants, vests worn bare or with T-shirts, a bright red shirt. On the chest is a large silver cross with a chain.

Real name: *Michael Keehl (ミハエル＝ケール).

• Nickname: *Mello (メロ).

• Height and weight: *171 cm / 52 kg.
• Blood type: *A (second).
• Status: *A student of Wammy's House, second in line to succeed L.
• Favorite food: Dark chocolate (the brand doesn't matter, as long as it's in tons).
