Ryuk is a Shinigami plagued with boredom, dropping his death note into the human world where it’s picked by a Japanese student named Light Yagami who wants to use it to rid the world of criminals and become the ‘god’ of this new world, becoming the figure known as ‘Kira’. Ryuk views humans as nothing more than entertainment for himself and has no stake in whether they live or die. Light grey skin, yellow and red eyes, spiky black hair, tall, abnormally long limbs.
