    open/close all folders 

    Side characters 

Sayu Yagami

Light's little sister, who has the bad luck of being a normal kid in this fucked up environment. After her horrible kidnapping by Mello, she ends up catatonic and in a wheelchair. Word Of God says she's getting better at the end of the manga, though.

Tropes associated with Sayu:
Naomi Misora

Raye Penber's fiancee and former F.B.I. agent who worked under L in the L.A.B.B. murder case.

Tropes associated with Naomi:
Raye Penber

The F.B.I. agent who was tailing Light.

Tropes associated with Raye:
Kyosuke Higuchi

The third Kira and the main antagonist of the Yotsuba arc. He's one of the eight-member Yotsuba board, as head of technological development, but isn't very competent compared to the others, and is obsessed with gaining social status in addition to wealth. Light had Rem send the Death Note to him as part of aXanatos Gambit to clear himself and Misa of suspicion. After his arrest, Light kills him to regain control of the notebook.

Tropes associated with Higuchi:
Reiji Namikawa

A member of the Yotsuba Eight that Light sways over to L's side.
Tropes associated with Namikawa:
Matt

Mello's henchman, and a fellow graduate of Wammy's House. His real name is Mail Jeevas.

Tropes associated with Matt:
Hitoshi Demegawa

Linda
Fan art of Linda (by teh-h), because you'd need a microscope to see her one official appearance at the back of a manga panel.
An artist and another of the Wammy orphans. She draws the portraits of Near and Mello that are seen in both the manga and anime.
Tropes associated with Linda:

    SPK members 

Halle Lidner
A former Secret Service agent who works for Near as part of the SPK, and is the only female member of this organization. She joined the SPK to avenge one of her relatives who had been killed by Higuchi at the time when he acted as Kira. She leaks information to Mello about the investigation, as she reasoned that Kira would be caught faster under their combined efforts. Later, she was chosen to infiltrate the bodyguard unit that protects Kiyomi Takada. In the one-shot chapter set three years after Light's death, it is revealed that she and Rester continue to work with Near. Her real name is Halle Bullook.

Tropes associated with Halle:
  • Affirmative Action Girl: She is introduced after the Time Skip, making her the third action girl in the series and one of the few females in Death Note's predominantly male cast.
    • Action Girl: She still has the physical skills, and poses as Takada's bodygaurd.
  • Character AlignmentNeutral Good
  • Die For Our Ship: to some Mello/Near and Mello/Matt fans.
  • Double Agent: becomes something like this between Near and Mello.
  • Dumb Blonde: Subverted, she is actually one of the more competent women of the series.
  • Eyes Of Gold
  • Go Through Me: Pulls one of these when Mello threatens to shoot Near. "If you shoot Near, we'll shoot you, if you both die here, what's the point? Only Kira would be happy with that."
  • Het Is Ew: Probably a contributing factor for the lack of fanwork for Mello/Halle (or at least in comparison to other pairings with Mello).
  • Hime Cut: Although she is not of Japanese origin.
  • Revenge - she wants to catch Kira to avenge one of her relatives.
  • Shower Scene: She gets her own right before being forced to go back to the SPK headquarters, by Mello.

Stephen Gevanni
A member of the SPK.
