Basic Info| Name: | Mello |
|---|---|
| Birthdate: | 1989-12-13 |
BioName: Mihael Keehl
Alias: Mello
Age: 11
Gender: Male
Sexuality: He doesn't have one yet.
Habit/Neurosis: To be the best. Also chocolate. Mello loves chocolate and isn't often seen without a chocolate bar on hand.
Personality: Mello is a fierce boy, determined to be known as better than everyone. He does whatever it takes to make it to the top, taking the fastest route he can find, unless it involves cheating. The one thing he will not do or even consider doing is taking an unfair advantage over his rival or rivals; it's something of an honor issue because he only sees the victory as being legitimate if he honestly beats them while they're both doing their best. And if he can't do that, then he just isn't trying hard enough.
Of course his somewhat violent tendencies that are quite well-known later in his life begin in his childhood, surfacing as mostly pranks, and sometimes very cruel ones at that. They can range from things as simple as setting off stinkbombs or dropping water balloons from a high window onto the people below, to cutting one of the other children's hair while they sleep or destroying a favorite possession of theirs. For the most part, the more vicious pranks are done as revenge for something the other child might have done to Mello or his best friend, Matt -- though whether or not the perceived slight actually happened is debatable -- while the others are just used to stave off boredom, which shows its ugly face just about whenever Mello isn't studying.
Appearance: Mello has always been rather small for his age -- scrawny and not terribly tall -- and that, combined with his softer features and shoulder-length blonde hair generally led to him being mistaken for a young girl, or just plain being called "girly" by other children. He's generally seen in black or at least dark clothing, preferring long pants and sleeves.
History: Mello doesn't remember his parents very well or if he ever had any siblings; he doesn't even know if they're alive or dead. All he knows is that they were there once and now they're gone and after they were gone, he spent some time in an orphanage. Quite a lot of time, actually, more than he liked. He found the place boring, even as a young child, and he hated watching all of the infants and small toddlers come in and be adopted not very long after while he'd spent years in the place. It hadn't taken him very long to realize that people looking to adopt weren't looking for children to save, for the most part, they were looking for babies that they could pretend were their own and brainwash until that fateful day that the poor kid realized that he looked nothing like his "parents" or any other member of his family. Mello told himself it didn't matter because he wanted nothing of it anyway, but it still hurt every time he was passed over for adoption for a baby.
So, in his adolescent frustration, Mello would pick on the other children, mostly the younger ones, bullying them and making his chances of adoption even less. The people that ran the orphanage, though, paid attention to him, so he didn't care if it meant he got into trouble and no one wanted to adopt him. Once he was old enough to go to school, however, he threw himself into it, partly because it came so easily to him, and partly because he found it was another way to get more attention drawn to him. More attention than his child's mind could ever imagine, in fact.
It didn't take very long for his teachers to realize that this was not an average intellect that they were dealing with. Calls were made and soon enough, Mello found himself at The Wammy House, part of a new generation of children in the running to potentially become the next L, the world-renown detective. Of course, the recognition that came along with the identity immediately appealed to him and Mello took on the challenge with relish. And he was good. The best, in fact, in his generation, with the single exception of Near, the seemingly emotionless hermit of a boy that blocked Mello's victory at just about every turn.
No matter how much he studied and how well he did in their classes, Near was almost always just one step ahead of him and it frustrated Mello to no end. He became fixated on Near, his desire to become the next L growing even more with his desire to just beat Near. If it hadn't been for Matt, then Mello might have eventually buckled under the pressure he and The Wammy House itself was putting on him. He had his outlets, still playing pranks on the other children, but Matt was different from them. They were all boring unless he was pulling a prank on them, but Matt was fun even when Mello wasn't playing pranks on him.
And the fact that he would join in probably helped that quite a bit, along with the fact that he was still good while not being a threat to Mello's place at number two and his potential to be number one.
