Name: L Lawliet
Canon: Death Note
OU/AU/OC: OU
Canon Point: As he is dying
History: http://deathnote.wikia.com/wiki/L_Lawliet
Personality: L is considered the World's Greatest Detective, although in fact, he is actually the top three detectives in the world, using assumed names to solve cases that L would not handle. L devotes himself to his work and shrouds himself in secrecy. He operates under a number of aliases, including Ryuzaki and Hideki Ryuga. He sleeps very little.
Although his line of work calls for a certain sense of caution, L can be downright paranoid. Before forming the task force to solve the Kira case, he refuses to show his face and speaks through a synthesized computer voice when working with the police. The one person he ever appears to trust unconditionally is Watari, the older man who is sometimes referred to as L's "handler".
He calls Light his first friend, which is likely true. However, any feelings of companionship are second to his desire to prove that Light is Kira. L certainly doesn't trust him to any extent, as evidenced when he handcuffs himself to Light so that he can keep an eye on him at all times. He is friendly enough with Misa and the members of the task force, especially as it serves his goals, but there's an air of someone tolerating those who aren't really worth his time.
In many ways, L lacks basic social skills, fitting the profile of the eccentric genius. There is a bluntness to his interactions. If he thinks you're a vicious mass murderer wreaking havoc among the world's criminals, he'll tell you to your face that you're the prime suspect in the case and let you know down to the percent exactly how sure he is of this fact. He can be downright offensive in his out-of-hand dismissal of people that he doesn't feel are useful or that he doesn't trust. It's possible that he has spent so much time in seclusion that he doesn't have enough experience with human relationships, but it's much more likely that he just doesn't care. Playing up his eccentric habits also works to his advantage in unsettling those he is up against, even if it's the most basic of questioning.
L can be childish at times, exhibiting a stubborn attitude and a hatred of losing. However, these feelings can also be a great asset, leading to a dogged determination that allows him to go to great lengths to solve a case. The downside to this determination is that he will do almost anything if he feels it will bring him closer to solving a case. It doesn't matter who he may hurt or how many people he will have to manipulate. The investigation reigns supreme. For instance, when he imprisons Misa under suspicion of being the second Kira, he restrains her in a getup that's part straitjacket and part S&M and authorizes Watari to use light torture if necessary to get her to talk. When the task force is investigating the Yotsuba group, L appears willing to let them kill more victims if it means that he will then have concrete evidence of their guilt. Morals fall to the wayside for the sake of solving the puzzle.
L has a number of odd habits and mannerisms, such as always sitting in a crouching manner, refusing to wear socks, or grasping a cell phone by the edges with two fingers to hold it to his ear. In some cases, he claims that he does what he does in order to facilitate better thinking, such as the statement that his thinking decreases by 40% if he sits normally. L loves sweets, and eating sugar is another thing that he claims increases his brain power because sugar will fuel the brain. He also has a dry sense of humor, maintaining a straight face while teasing Light or cutting down Matsuda.
Strengths: L does not possess any powers in the sense of having magical abilities or superpowers. His most noteworthy ability lies in his keen mind. He earned the title of World's Greatest Detective through superior skills of observation and brilliant deductive reasoning.
Despite his overall scrawny appearance, L is a capable fighter. During a fight in the series, L meets Light blow for blow. According to Death Note: How to Read, he is a master of Capoeira, explaining the sudden acrobatic kicks to Light's head. Although it has been pointed out to me that Death Note fans vary on how much credence they're willing to give How to Read, I do feel that he has trained or otherwise kept himself in basic fighting shape to be prepared for whatever may happen during an investigation.
Weaknesses: L's weaknesses are part and parcel of his personality and have been outlined above: stubbornness, paranoia, and an unwillingness to "play along" for the sake of social nicety. In casual encounters, such as this game encourages, he will be the biggest, most frustrating know-it-all.
Possessions: He will come in with no possessions, unless you will allow him to have a laptop to stare sadly at because he can't open it or use it

First Person: [Audio]
[The voice that comes over the scroll is slightly wavery, cheaply altered through the Ponyville equivalent of a toy microphone.]
The security on these devices is laughable. The only alternative I can find to speaking to you in my own voice is this children's toy I have acquired [there's a filly with an extra lollipop somewhere] and the so-called privacy settings are useless when you can read anyone's messages by stealing his scroll. I was able to create better encryption systems in elementary school.
[There is a slight smacking noise.] However, I must congratulate you on your cakes. They might make up for how boring this town will be.
Third Person: Prose log (and despite the game, this is a sfw thread with L purchasing a cake)
