infiniillusion
Canon: D.Gray-Man
Age:
19, biologically. However, it should be noted that while he sports a possibly older (20-30) person's brain/memory fragments, he is technically only 'awake' with his current consciousness for 9 years, and can fully act it, too. So, in a way, he is 9, 23+, and 19 all at once. SOB HIS CANON IS JUST THAT STRANGE. But generally it's 19, yeah.
From When?:
End of chapter 196, right before Kanda goes mad, helps main character awaken their evil and learns the truth about Alma - and, impliedly, then dies. That's from right before a rather major event just like the game suggests, right?
Abilities/Powers:
First thing to note is that he is, in fact, an artificial human. As such, his physical ability extends beyond that of simple humans; he's very fast and agile (to the point of being no more than a blur when he moves), physically strong despite his looks (capable of breaking holes in concrete with his punch or kick as well as splitting a machine in half with a sword alone), and he's a regenerator.
The extent of his regeneration exceeds death, in fact; most of his wounds heal in the matter of hours, he's capable of regrowing a lost limb or crushed organs, and, when killed, he will come to life as if nothing has happened approximately 580 seconds after the death. While it was displayed in canon that the number of such revivals must be barely countable, it also isn't unlimited, as the more damage he takes through the years, the slower his regeneration rate gets, implying that eventually he will, in fact, die permanently.
It was also implied that he is partly immune to cold, as well as hunger; it is entirely possible that not getting any food wouldn't kill him, given that he only eats soba which can hardly provide a normal human body with everything needed. It is speculated that he can eat just about anything, even if it's not edible at all. For the same reason, he is also quite immune to poison, both edible and in the form of gas.
Thanks to years of training, Kanda is a great swordsman, although it might be debatable that he excels more due to strength and speed rather than pure skill. Still, he doesn't waste movements and strikes quickly, can fight with a variety of swords without changing his style, and was shown cutting up huge, thick metal structures with a regular sword alone.
Finally, as an Exorcist, he is compatible with a supernatural matter called Innocence, which resides in his sword, Mugen. When activated, it allows him to use a lot of quite damaging moves, main of which are:
Power Limitations:
He will not be able to fully activate his Innocence nor use the moves that can affect environment a lot. He will only be able to use the first two Illusions, and with the first one he'll only summon one bug at a time.
Anything beyond will be blocked by the power of the Wood, however if eventually at some point he got exceptionally angry, some electricity-elements of the Fifth Illusion might slip through. It will only be effective against live beings (or monsters) though, since electric charge is only dangerous to them. There won't be enough of it to cause explosions or mass murders or anything of the sort.
He will maintain most of his physical abilities, however he'll need to regularly get food, sleep and water to continue functioning properly (since otherwise it wouldn't be fun in a survival game), almost like a normal human being.

Personality:
Kanda's personality is simple enough, but it actually makes him a rather complex character, possibly because the roots of his behavior differ from other series' characters that appear similar on the outside.
First of all, he is rude, stubborn, proud, rather cold and often arrogant (though sometimes just a retard). He doesn't open to people, nor talk to them unless he really wants to say something and even then his sentences are rather short and commonly include swearwords. His overused phrase that is his most common response to things he doesn't bother to answer to is simply "Che", or a similar monosyllabic sound. He looks down on a lot of people, often even ridiculing their feelings, though he also shows certain amount of respect to his superiors and a few special people, such as Lenalee, along with a certain level of care to it (those people are also the ones allowed to call him by his first name, though not all of them do. Others might be killed after trying.). Due to being able to use Innocence especially after all the hardship he went through to obtain it, he refers to all supporters as failures; he is powerful and doesn't see the need to be modest about it.
He's also quite violent and doesn't mind to resort to drastic means to prove his point or to get what he wants, including full-fledgedly attacking his comrades when they didn't want to leave him behind, or holding his blade at a child's throat to make him confess. It can also be pointed out that he shows less than zero remorse over either of these situations even after some time passing, and doesn't even seem to think he had done anything special or 'bad' at all.
In fact, he doesn't seem to get quite a lot of things, and not only because he's supposedly the dumbest out of the main four (what he totally is. NOT SMART. At all.). Due to the wicked canon, instead of being normally born he had awakened from a pond at about 9 years old biologically, with fragments of a dead Exorcist's brain as an experiment to create new Apostles. Even though it is unclear if he had any knowledge and motorics already, he's soon shown walking and talking according to how a 9 year old should; however now that he's around 19 he does at points act as if he was around 10 mentally as either way that is the period during which he had life experience. And that life experience mostly included the war, as well as being disciplined to act like a soldier and not show emotions right from his 'birth'.
What is even more intriguing, his rude and irritable jerk nature isn't the result of any of this. He had been swearing and telling people off more or less from the moment he started talking. He was also even quicker to resort to physical violence. Also one might say he was a bit whiny, close to the point of being a crybaby, what isn't the case now (although he was shown to become just as whiny when he gets drunk, and being actually rather nice though still an asshole to his theoretical new best friend Lavi, just like to Alma before that). Grown-up Kanda appears to be a little colder and more reserved, often calling out his threats in a calm tone rather than shouting, but generally he is the same as back then.
Kanda is very loyal and puts Black Order missions as a priority, even though he hates its Central Agency. One might say that he is in fact loyal to Komui and the Generals rather than the Order itself, and that would seem rather true. He is very serious about orders and will lecture others if he thinks they're fooling around instead of what Exorcists should do. However, his foremost first priority are promises, especially the one he remembers giving in his 'past life' as a dead Exorcist to the woman he loves, and he continues to search for her throughout the series despite of barely actually remembering even her face. Because of that he is set on surviving no matter what, to the point where he destroys his then-best-friend, Alma Karma, when pitched with him in a deadly match rather than letting them both go down, and later in the series he implies he's ready to do it again if needed - before he finally learns the truth about their past.
Kanda doesn't use a huge variety of facial expressions; most usually he has a small frown on his face. It can vary by becoming darker or going into a blank expression, there's also the truly murderous look that was shown only a couple of times this far which usually signifies blind rage that everyone sane should run away from. Even though he was shown rarely but smiling as he was a kid, he almost never does that anymore and will rather wear a smug contented expression or a slightly psychotic homicidal grin. Most of the time, however, he's simply linefacing.
Finally, there have been several moments that might imply his mental stability being questionable. Not only him being angry beyond logic and any boundaries, smiling while being technically killed or using violent means on subordinates point that way; as a child he was seeing hallucinations related to his mysterious 'birth' that included fragments of the past life, and, when he was considered to be a failed experiment and decided to be cryogenically frozen, he is seen maniacally laughing like a true madman, moments before he finally manages to connect to the Innocence. He also seems to enter a blind murder-murder-kill state when Fifth Illusion is activated.
He doesn't at all show any fears or insecurities, however that doesn't mean he doesn't have them. He doesn't want to die before he finds 'that person', and he wants to know the truth. He also might be worried about his comrades at times, as well as to injure them himself after losing it. It was implied he can't swim, so large bodies of water would be intimidating to him. The closest to an inner demon to be found in him is, likely, his past and the relations to it, as well as killing Alma, and all of the experiments he had gone through. He's unsure of what he is thereof, not to mention that save for his new (and old) friends people feared him as an abomination they created themselves; and, despite of having extremely strong willpower, it is possible to make him lose it using that in a clever play with illusions.
History:
He is an experiment of an organization called Black Order which specializes in exterminating demonic machinery called Akuma that are being created by the series' main bad guy, Millenium Earl. Akuma can only be destroyed by a material called Innocence, also known as God's Crystal, which is scattered all throughout the world in a total of 109 pieces. Certain people are compatible with those pieces and can use it as a weapon, and those people are called Exorcists.
However, Black Order wanted to gain the upper hand in that war, and that was why the "Artificial Apostle" project was started. Its goal was to manufacture "second Exorcists", beings capable of using Innocence but more durable, stronger, faster than the actual thing. It was done by implanting fragments of fatally wounded Exorcists' brains into artficial bodies that were grown in ponds in an underground laboratory.
Unfortunately, the project was a complete failure. All of the subjects that awoke in the first place would soon go mad and have to be shut down. One of them, called Alma Karma, seemed to be a success for a good while, until subject Yu Kanda woke up as well. For a while they both were put through inhuman, body-ripping attempts to synchronize with the Innocence. However Kanda, like the others, soon started to see hallucinations and hear voices, coming from the dead part's past, including a woman which would repeat that she is going to wait forever for him, and whom his brain-donor had loved. Alma didn't want to lose another friend and tried everything to save him, however in the process he discovered the labs with the dead Exorcist's corpses and realized the truth, proceeding to slaughter everyone in the facility. Meanwhile Kanda was being 'taken care of' by the scientists, Innocence finally reacting to him moments before he got killed and saving him. He was forced to face Alma, and killed him. What he didn't know however, was that Alma, in fact, had the soul fragments of that very same woman he since then dedicated his life to look for.
He was appointed as the Order's Exorcist at some point after that, and was assigned to a group lead by General Tiedoll, a very caring man. He eventually grew up and met new people, and become more powerful than ever before. And continued looking for the woman he had only seen in his visions, refusing to die until he has found her. He became rather close with a few fellow Exorcists, such as Lenalee whom he grew up with, Marie, Daisya, Lavi, and came to like the new Supervisor, Komui, because he did his best to put an end to all the human experimentation and actually looked out for the Exorcists. Plenty of times he actually puts his life on the line for them, all throughout the series, despite of seeking survival; it can be argued that in fact the most important thing to him is duty, whether to people close to him or to those he holds promises to.
Eventually, the series' main character, Allen Walker, joins the Order as well. He and Kanda hate each other from the very start, however eventually come to a sort of a grudgy tolerance, although they still dislike each other's presence. After a lot of shit happened in the main plot and the truth about Alma's real identity was revealed with the help of Allen, Kanda finally refers to him by his full name instead of the offensive nickname, first time ever in the series, before being sent off via magical wormhole known as the Ark together with Alma.
However, the honeymoon isn't as happy as it should be, because Alma is just a crumbling stump at that point - apparently the labs have kept his remains after he was killed and one day the branch was invaded and the Earl randomly turned him into Akuma, once again forcing him to fight Kanda who went a little crazy then - and so Alma says his goodbyes and dies, while Kanda's current status is unknown.
...Forgive me if it sounds confusing. It is. Even for the longtime fans. : )
First Person Sample:
What the hell is this place? There are stupid glowing naked little things dancing around everywhere. I don't remember ordering that. Take it the fuck away.
[Accusingly looks right at you. Clearly, whatever happened is all your fault. No matter who you are.]
I expect an answer.
[If that wasn't clear enough. Might as well give another hint.]
Now.
Prose Sample:
It was late afternoon, and the scenery passing behind the train's window was still sunlit, looking so very peaceful compared to what they've been seeing the last week. It was quite soothing, really. It was another mission completed, and here they were, two Exorcists who had been such for almost as long as they could remember, finally able to ease up on the tense business a little and simply rest during the travel home. Which, granted, was going to take a couple of days, but that was alright since neither of them had any injuries that would have needed staying back there and treating, though of course some bruises were there but it was the best one could expect out of what came with the job.
Kanda was wearing his usual slight scowl when he entered the compartment once again, paying no attention to the Finder in the hallway, and closed the door behind himself with a bit of a sigh. He had just checked the train for anything suspicious, just in case, because trains were suspicious, goddammit, but found nothing. What a waste of time.
"Everything seems fine," he grumbled and went to take a seat by the window, next to Lenalee though of course still keeping a respectful distance away. So another job was well done. He leaned back into the seat a bit, his expression not really changing, and blankly watched the changing landscape behind the glass.
Special Notes:
Kanda has a tattoo over his heart; it reads 'Om' and has a circle growing around it as his regeneration is overused. Given how he's dressed upon appearing, it should be noticed by anyone who runs into him. He also has very long hair and a face so pretty that it can get him mistaken for a female. Also, he seems to have a soft spot for nature, especially plants, and gardening is his (only) hobby, so if he ever runs into some flower spirits or whatnot, it's actually quite likely he'll treat them with respect. And, as a result of the experiments, he sees hallucinations of multiplying lotus flowers. Thereof, illusions might get to him quite a bit, or, on the contrary, he might not really be too surprised.

Finally, as an Exorcist, he is compatible with a supernatural matter called Innocence, which resides in his sword, Mugen. When activated, it allows him to use a lot of quite damaging moves, main of which are:
- First Illusion, Hell Insects: projectile attack that creates solid, scary-looking multi-eyed bugs with long,sharp stingers about the size of a horse that can run havoc at whatever they're aimed at.
- Second Illusion, Twin Blades: materializes a second sword in his other hand. This enables him to use a variety of energy-filled slashes, such as Eight Flower Mantis that looks basically like a quickly moving and deadly sharp spinning disc.
- Third Illusion; Sublimation. His strength and speed increase drastically, however it feeds off his remaining lifespan. The energy attacks can get explosive at this point.
- Fourth Illusion. Further increase in speed and power.
- Fifth Illusion. The blade starts emitting waves of electricity and changes colour; Kanda's hair goes all weird and he seems to lose awareness to the point of blindly attacking the target and anything that gets in the way until it is demolished. It takes a lot of his life and is very powerful (crater-making powerful). Some of the energy-based moves used with this, such as Ripping Flash Claw, use the power of lightning.
Power Limitations:
He will not be able to fully activate his Innocence nor use the moves that can affect environment a lot. He will only be able to use the first two Illusions, and with the first one he'll only summon one bug at a time.
Anything beyond will be blocked by the power of the Wood, however if eventually at some point he got exceptionally angry, some electricity-elements of the Fifth Illusion might slip through.

He will maintain most of his physical abilities, however he'll need to regularly get food, sleep and water to continue functioning properly (since otherwise it wouldn't be fun in a survival game), almost like a normal human being.
Inventory:
What he had at the moment he was taken from;
- black pants, and (possibly) underwear,
- boots,
- shreds of what used to be a short-sleeved shirt but now is a bloody rag,
- remains of what used to be a long black coat but now looks like a manskirt with a thick belt and an open in front,
- a brown rough-fabric overcoat,
- a little girl's ribbon holding his ponytail up,
- a pair of gloves,
- his sword "Mugen", along with its sheath.
