"Mysteries are just puzzles created by the human mind.
If you think them over long enough it isn't difficult to come up with a logical solution.
But no matter how many times someone tries to explain it to me, I can never figure out why one person would choose to kill another. I can understand it in my head, but it just doesn't make sense to me at all."

Appearance:
Conan is small even for a first grader. According to official statistics he is three feet tall.
He has slightly messy black hair that sticks up at the back of his head and bright blue eyes. He always wears a pair of glasses that are a little too large for his face.
His body language and mannerisms change often, depending on whether he is putting up an act as a child or showing his true personality.
History:
There was once a famous teenage detective named Shinichi Kudo. By the age of sixteen he had solved hundreds of difficult cases and was already being asked to assist on cases by the police. That all ended the day he finally ran into a case too big for him. While investigating some suspicious characters at an amusement park Shinichi was caught and forced to take an experimental poison. He was left for dead.
But Shinichi didn't die. Instead the poison shrank him to the size of a young child. Realizing that the criminals might return if they discovered he was still alive, Shinichi took on the identity of Conan Edogawa. He was taken in by his childhood friend, who believed Conan to be a distant relative of Shinichi's. However, Conan refused to tell her any part of the truth in an attempt to protect her from becoming involved. Even if it meant he had to watch her wonder why Shinichi had never come home.
And that was Conan's new life. Living the life of an ordinary child, while watching his real life falling apart because he was no longer there to live it.
Over the next 700 episodes Conan would solve hundreds of mystery cases while claiming to just be a kid that was good at noticing things. Eventually Conan discovered that the criminals who poisoned him were members of a international criminal syndicate known only as the Black Organization. He dedicated himself to bringing an end to the organization.

Personality:
Conan is intelligent and cool-headed, with a strong independent streak. Sherlock Holmes is his role model.
He's an idealist who believes that there is no justification for killing another person. He values justice and truth very highly. However, he is also a pragmatist. He hates the fact that he's been forced into this situation where all he can do is lie, but if it means saving lives he will lie to and manipulate people.

He's also a sarcastic brat with a habit of running off on his own to find trouble. He absolutely cannot resist a mystery of any kind. And he is an extremely determined skeptic who only believes in what can be proven with science and logic. He seems to be personally offended at the very idea of such things as magic and aliens and ESP
As Conan he often puts on an act of sugary enthusiasm for the benefit of adults. He is probably truest to his own personality among his classmates in first grade and among the few people who know his secret. But even with them he is secretive.
He tends to be very closemouthed about the things that are really bothering him and will never ask for help even if he needs it. He can deduct motives and solve impossibly complicated riddles but he doesn't really understand people on a personal level.
He also has the worst luck in the world. If there is any kind of disaster happening anywhere, he's practically guaranteed to be right in the middle of it. He can't go anywhere without walking onto the scene of a major crime.

Abilities:
As someone who has wanted to be a detective since a very young age, Conan has spent most of his life acquiring useful skills and knowledge. This has had the result of giving him a rather eclectic list of skills.
- Age Transformation
- On very rare occasions Conan is able to return to his true age. Rare, because it can only happen with the aid of a temporary cure or when he is ill enough for a fever to temporarily overcome the poison in his body. However, each return to his original age is extremely painful and comes with a high risk of dying from the stress on his body. And Conan builds up a resistance with each use of a temporary antidote.
- Advanced Deductive and Observational Abilities
- He's shown himself capable of performing sherlock scans on complete strangers. Meaning he can take basic observations about a stranger's appearance and turn them into deductions on their employment and recent history.
