A/N: So this is the final version of Kane Falls character profile. A lot of you had concerns that he was replacing Light as Kira but actually Light is not leaving the story, he is just moving to the Shinigami role. When Light died in a freak accident, he still had ownership of Ryuk's Death Note so he became a Shinigami and dropped his own Death Note in the human world for Kane Falls to find. Another thing people had concerns with was his stereotypical background so I have changed things a lot and hopefully he is a more likable character now. Thank you to sincethelastday for giving me pointers and advice! =]
Name: Kane Falls
Age/Date of Birth: 20/March 23, 1992
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 140
Description: Straight golden hair that reaches just beneath his ears; hazel eyes; usually wears a plaid shirt and blue jeans with holes in the knees.
Personality: Extremely shy but aggressive once he gets to know someone; likes to take charge of situations and would rule the world if he could; smart but very modest; doesn't boast about his talents.
Backstory: Kane's parents divorced when he was four years old leaving him with his mother who always stuck him at a babysitter's house. After Mr. Falls ran off with a woman young enough to be his daughter, Mrs. Falls was forced to resort to any means necessary to earn money to support herself and her son Kane. Those means included prostitution and exotic dancing. As Kane grew older, he grew up without a father and for the most part of his life, without a mother as well. The only time Kane even saw his mother was when he came home from school and threw dinner on the table for him; after that, she left for work and didn't come home sometimes for days.
Even though he grew up without a mother or father, he had a fairly happy childhood and a few friends that he grew to trust. He did very well in school and was considered the most likely to become president by his classmates. Most of the students in his classes made fun of him and bullied him because of what his mother did for a living and because of how shy he was. Peer pressure did him in eventually and he started smoking cigarettes and becoming more and more outspoken in class, leading to detentions. Kane hated the fact that he had become one of the outcasts, the bad outcasts. He went from being the top of his class to the bottom within a matter of weeks. Kane wanted to return to the way he was, the way he used to be; but everyone expected him to be one of the bad students.
He tried to return to the way he was, the Kane that didn't smoke cigarettes, that didn't get into fights, and that actually cared about his schoolwork; but they wouldn't let him. The very students who forced Kane into his new lifestyle refused to let him out using any means necessary. Kane already knew about their habits and all of their secrets; they held a knife to his throat if he tried to leave their group.
Kane Falls became hardened inside; his new lifestyle became a part of him. He was without the ability to love or be loved. It turned him and his emotions to stone until he no longer cared about what he did to anyone. So when he comes across a Death Note lying on the ground, he picks it up without any hesitation and upon insistence by his shinigami, Light Yagami, Kane agreed make the Shinigami Eye deal with Light. Murder may seem like a strong leap for someone who was bullied in school but for Kane, it wasn't as hard as it seemed. Guilt ate at his consciousness but he still proceeded to kill those who bullied him and made him into what he is today. Though Kane had a different intention for the Death Note, with Light Yagami as his shinigami, he attempts to take on the world.
