Name: Beyond Birthday (goes by B or Rue Ryuuzaki)
Age: 23
Career/Occupation: ex L successor, murderer
Ethnicity: English and Japanese
Explain, in depth, your character's personality: Despite his obvious delight in brutality, Beyond is incredibly intelligent, a perfect example of the old saying that 'all geniuses are insane'. He is obviously mentally unstable and though he very rarely loses control over himself, there are obvious signs of this instability even when he is being pleasant. What may appear as social awkwardness at times may just be a hint of a sinister and deadly plot. He has absolutely no compassion for other people and any kindness showed is simply a trick to help him reach his goal. Should a person choose not to help him chances are they will simply be ignored and if they attempt to stop him, they will usually be killed. Beyond can be quite loquacious at times and is able to hold very civilized conversation with someone if he so chooses and even comes across as normal, if not a little weird, when he wants to.
History: Beyond Birthday was born with Shinigami Eyes. He sees the names and remaining lifespan of everyone around him which could explain some of his mental instabilities. He saw his parents' lifespans going down but at his current age could not quite grasp what it meant. Soon after his father was murdered by a thug and his mother was killed in a train accident. And so he was orphaned.
It was not long until his intelligence was discovered and he was brought into Wammy's Orphanage and that is where he saw L for the first time. He was renamed B or Backup and brought up to be a successor for L. However, through growing up with L in the orphanage, B developed a sick obsession with his predecessor and was determined to be better than he. He wanted to be superior. If L was a freak than B was a super freak, if L was a genius than B was a super genius. This obsession warped his already twisted mind to the point that B left Wammy's and became a murderer just to gain L's attention.
It was set up in Los Angeles where B would murder people to make it look like suicide but at the same time make it apparent that it was not. He left behind clues that only L would be able to solve in order to capture the detective's interests. At the end, he planned to burn himself beyond recognition so that L would never be able to solve the case, so that B would be triumphant and L would be left forever chasing his shadow.
However, he was stopped by Naomi Misora, the woman working with L on the case that he had been helping along until the end and he was brought first to the hospital to tend his wounds and then to jail. However, B managed to escaped and lay in hiding until his wounds healed enough for him to make his comeback...
Appearance: Beyond strives to look like L. His naturally black hair is constantly mussed and styled to resemble L's and he wears dark make up under his eyes to complete the odd appearance of his predecessor. Constantly wearing the same baggy white shirt and jeans that L does, B's actual appearance isn't known by any except L, Watari and Roger. He is of slightly bigger build than L and the one telling difference between their appearance are B's eyes which are the color of blood.
Miscellaneous: B can see the name and lifespan of everyone except for himself.

And~ A sample of your roleplaying abilities:
It coated the skin of his hands, sticking to the flesh like warm blood, sliding slowly between his fingertips, leaving thick stains of red across his pale skin. Equally red eyes followed the slow descent of the jam as it smoothly slid down his pale hand, making its steady way down his wrist. He watched it until it reached the sleeve of his white shirt and then slowly brought the hand to his pale lips. His tongue emerged from behind his teeth, contacting his wrist as he slowly moved his hand down, weaving a straight path for his tongue as it glided upon the flesh, curling around the sweet jam that he swallowed with relish.
Not as sweet and satisfying as your blood undoubtedly will taste, but it will do for now he thought darkly.
Beyond’s lips curled into such an unpleasant smile that everyone in the near vicinity could not help but notice and shudder at. He was sitting on a small bench in the park and more and more people were nervously skittering about the bench, as though they did not want to be anywhere near it. Well, Beyond could not blame them. After all, seeing a man crouched upon a bench, bare feet rubbing together, one hand clutching a half-empty jar of jam while the other hand was covered with the substance made for a rather intimidating sight. Not to add in the fact that his black hair was in wild disarray and he had a slightly manic smile set upon his deathly pale face.
