Character Description: Nate River
Near was raised in an orphanage, and is highly intelligent. Watari was the owner/creator of this orphanage, and due to this all the children in there are highly intelligent, but Near was always at the top. Because of this, Near was chosen as one to possibly precede L if anything happened to L.
Near figured out many of the details on the Kira case that L didn't find out until it was too late. Due to this, the president of the USA makes Near the leader of an organization that is focused on finding Kira. As with L, Near has no written proof of his real name or any photo's anywhere.
Near's lifespan is 434016. In the manga, Near is stated to have been born in 1991, while in the anime it becomes 1994. At the start of the series Near is 13 years old, then he is 17 years old when the series picks up after the time skip. And of course he naturally ages throughout the series.

It amuses me that he still plays with toys...but,then again...he does seem to think better while he's playing.

Near's pretty cool, I want to find out where he got his ducks. (I can't find ducks anywhere! I tried to make some but I couldn't make them water resisitant. T___T)
But Mello pwns him. Mello got alot of information before he did, and if they didn't work together (Kinda), Kira would've gotten away....
Plus the Mafia owns any government anyways, it's called team work, which they gov doesn't have. =P ... show more »
