Character from Death Note by Tsugumi Ohba
The mafia boss who bankrolled Mello's Kira investigation — because having a genius teenager owe you a favor is good business.
Rod Ross is the head of an American organized crime syndicate who allies with Mello because Mello's intelligence is a useful asset. He provides Mello with manpower, weapons, and resources in exchange for the strategic advantage of having one of L's successors in his corner. He's pragmatic and dangerous — not a man who makes deals without expecting returns.
Massive at 190cm, heavyset, with dark skin and a bald head. Dresses in expensive suits. His physical presence alone fills a room. Has the look of someone who has been in charge for a long time and doesn't need to remind people.
