Date of Birth: November 11th.

Home Town: Loguetown/Roguetown.

Body: White and thin body. Tattoo of a black cross on his left arm.

Height: 5’9”

Weight: Light, around 120 pounds.

Description: Extremely intelligent in mostly the science and math fields. He’s more of the type that always thinks things through instead of acting right away, like in battles he is more of the strategic type, instead of the all-out war type.

Clothes: Brown shoes, black pants, brown belt with dull gold buckle, white doctor looking gloves with black crosses on them, white short-sleeved shirt with two buttons and sleeves that look somewhat torn or frayed, a black string necklace with a black cross hanging from it (usually kept beneath his shirt), and black thin square rimmed glasses that are usually kept above his eyes.

Specialties: Operating, Diagnosis, he also knows how to poison.

Pirate Crew: The Sunny Pirates.

Bounty: None.

Devil Fruit: None.

Devil Fruit Ability: None.

Personality: Friendly, but very serious in important situations. He’s more of the active type, like the opposite of a lazy or layed-back type person. He’s also pretty religious (hence, the crosses), so sometimes that can affect his personality.

Hobbies: Reading, Go (a board game, if anyone’s ever seen the anime Hikaru no Go, you know what I’m talking about.)

Likes: Helping people.

Dislikes: People that only care about themselves and don’t help anyone else.

Family: Father (alive) who was a doctor, and brother, Isaac (alive), who is suffering from an incurable disease who is a priest. He doesn’t remember anything about ever knowing his mom, and so he really doesn’t care.

Friends/Allies: All members of the Sunny Pirates.

Rivals: None yet.

Heroes: His father and brother (family.)

Dreams: To become the world’s best doctor (which basically would be done by finding cures to all incurable diseases and illnesses.)

History: He was born in Loguetown, where he lived with his father and older brother. He has no memory of his mother and no one in his family ever really mentions her. His father was a doctor, and when Jack was around age 10, his father was sent to Impel Down because he was accused of purposely poisoning (and eventually killing) a patient. Jack does not know if it is true or not, but he still followed in his father’s footsteps and became a doctor at a young age of 18 because he was so smart. His brother, who Jack is very close with, became a priest that same year. Although Jack became a doctor young, he lost his license fast. This is because he was one of the best around, and so another doctor became jealous and framed him, saying that he, like his father, poisoned a patient. So at age 20, he moved in with his brother who was living at a church. One month later, his brother was infected by a disease that so far has no cure. So, because he did not want to lose his only family still close to him, he started studying hard, experimenting, and doing all sorts of things to try and find a cure. He has had no luck, and he has now departed from his brother, searching for people who can help him and looking to become the world’s best doctor, finding cures for incurable diseases, to get his license back, and save his brother. Before he left though, his brother gave him a necklace with a cross, that he has never taken off since. He uses it as a constant reminder of his goal, and to one day successfully return to his brother. In the time away from his brother, he’s also learned other things such as using guns.

Takkun. Marine Captain. Approved.

Spoiler:

Image:
None

Name:
Takkun (pronounced like Tah-kune)

Nickname:
Kuromaru Takkun (Kuromaru means "become black." Read DF for this...)
Kuromaru (he is sometimes just called by that as like a second name too.)

Age:
19

Gender:
Male

Date of Birth:
May 30th

Home Town:
Karate Island

Occupation:
Pirate Hunter / Bounty Hunter
Hand-to-Hand Combatant

Eyes:
Black

Hair:
Dark grey, close to black, short.

Body:
Thin, not much visible muscle.

Height:
5 feet 10 inches.

Weight:
Approximately 120 pounds. When he uses his Devil Fruit he gains a couple pounds.

Description:
Quick movement in punching, kicking, and fighting. A fairly good amount of strength. He’s a little reckless though, and doesn’t always think every move through.

Clothes:
A dark green vest, black shorts, sandals, and a black headband.

Weapons:
Himself. He is highly trained in hand-to-hand fighting.

Specialties:
Hand-to-hand combat.

Pirate Crew:
Obviously not in a pirate crew, but he is the leader of Stormguard.

Bounty:
Of course no bounty seeing as he is in the marines.

Devil Fruit:
Tanso Tanso no Mi (Carbon Carbon Fruit)

Devil Fruit Ability:
Paramecia - Gives the user the ability to control the carbon in their body. (1/3 of a person is made up of carbon.)
The degree of hardness of carbon can be changed by the amount of carbon (in Takkun’s case, his DF is capable of changing the hardness, by adding to it.) If carbon is hardened to a certain degree, the outermost layer of skin on the body becomes extremely hard in texture, because one of carbon's most important jobs in the body is to prevent abrasion. This makes Takkun’s skin basically like a rock or steel. When used the appearance of his skin changes though. As many of you probably know, the color of carbon is actually black. So Takkun’s body shape remains exactly the same, but his skin just changes it’s color to black (Not black as in like African black, black as in the actual color.) This Devil Fruit improves both his offense and defense, perfect for a fighter like himself.

Special Techniques/Attacks:
-Tanso Tanso no Konbo 2 (Carbon Carbon Combo 2. The numbers after the word combo in the techniques stands for how many hits are included in the combo.)

Spoiler:

Takkun first uses his DF to harden his body. Takkun then runs straight on to his opponent, quickly jukes to the right of them, then with his left forearm, hits the right of their neck, resulting in them going soaring to the left. Takkun then dashes to the left to catch up to them and get a little ahead of them. Then, at the right time, he does like a semi barrel roll in the air, and during the motion of the roll his left leg strikes the opponent at the left of their neck in a downward motion. This sends them crashing down on the ground, and could cause a person's neck to break if they're weak. That doesn't happen too often though.

-Tanso Tanso no Konbo 3 (Carbon Carbon Combo 3.)

Spoiler:

Used after the DF to harden his body. He runs straight on to the enemy, then once in close range, he ducks low and with his right leg delivers a strong upward kick to their stomach. This sends them up in the air. He them jumps up to their level and with his left leg does a powerful one of those knee-butts to his stomach again. Then with left hand, he grips their head or hair and turns them over so that their face is facing the ground. Then with a closed fist he uses his right hand to perform the 3rd hit, a hammer-like hit to the enemy's back, around their kidney's. This then sends them fastly falling back to the ground, and eventually crashing in to it.

-More to come....

Personality:
Very friendly to pretty much anyone except people he thinks are annoying. He has a very care-free personality as well.

Hobbies:
Training.

Likes:
A good challenge, gambling, a recent liking of alcohol too.

Dislikes:
Annoying people, boring situations.

Family:
His parents left him at age 3.

Friends/Allies:
A bunch of fellow marines, particularly those in Stormguard.

Rivals:
He has no permanent rivals as of right now.

Heroes:
His sensei as a fighter, and Smoker as a marine.

Dreams:
To become the greatest hand-to-hand fighter (much like Zoro's dream, just not swords.)

History:
He was born on Karate Island, which basically made it certain that he must become some sort of a fighter. His parents gave him to one of the strongest known fighters when Takkun was only at the age of 3, to be trained and become extremely powerful. He has never seen his parents since, that doesn't bother him though. He grew up with his sensei, training everyday and becoming stronger and stronger in hand-to-hand fighting techniques, and he developed a great bond with his sensei (much like Luffy and Shanks.)

One day, when Takkun was now 16, pirates invaded the island, and a great fight broke out. Takkun's sensei was shot by one of the sharpshooters during this battle. As he was dying, Takkun's sensei told Takkun to finish what his dream once was, to become the greatest hand-to-hand fighter. During training, sensei always told Takkun that he indeed had a good offense, but a weak defense. So now as he was dying, he told Takkun to go back to the training grounds and dig up a certain spot. Then after he acquired what was in there, he could follow out the dream.

So he rushed back to the training grounds, did exactly what his sensei instructed him, and found a small black treasure chest. He slowly opened it, and saw a black fruit. At first he didn't understand what it was, and how it would help him, but he decided he probably needed to eat it to find out. The fight was now over when he returned, and he saw Smoker with a bunch of marines, and the pirates dead at his feet.

Smoker urged Takkun to come with him, having heard that he was one of the best aspiring fighters on the whole island, and having found out he ate a Devil Fruit. Since he had no one to be with on the island, he decided to go, feeling that Smoker could probably make him stronger anyway. When they docked at Loguetown, Smoker told Takkun that from now on, he would lend his power to the marines, as an enlisted pirate/bounty hunter. Takkun did not decline, because he thought that this job would give him the ability to go on numerous journeys, pursuing his and his sensei's dream. 3 years later, it is the current moment, and Takkun is now 19. Over the 3 years he has become a well known pirate hunter, and done many good jobs. He has now been promoted to the captain of a special marine division known as Stormguard.

Bounty: He doesn't get bounties, he gives them :>

Devil Fruit: Zoan Type:
Kuma Kuma no Mi, Model Polar Bear (Bear Bear Fruit, Model Polar Bear)

Devil Fruit Ability: As you all probably know, Zoan's have 3 stages.

-Stage 1: Tenkuma's normal human self.

-Stage 2: Tenkuma is half human and half polar bear. Better description? Tenkuma looks practically the same, except his body becomes slightly larger, his hands transform into claws, white fur surfaces, his ears look more like a polar bears, his eyes become shaped slightly different, his teeth become more vicious like, and of course his senses and physical abilities become much greater.

-Stage 3: Tenkuma becomes a quite big polar bear, which notably has quite large claws.

Personality: Most people wouldn't quite think of it when they see him, but he is actually quite clumsy. He also gets annoyed very easily, and tends to then freak out on people and start yelling at them and cursing at them. He is also quite strict to his underlings, but if he comes to like a person, which would be very lucky for them, he can get along with them very well and then is very fun to be around.

Hobbies: Sometimes he likes to make underlings do stuff that isn't really even necessary, but he just likes to see people work and suffer really. Other than that he enjoys relaxing and he very much likes hanging around pubs. You can find him there very often.

Likes: Feeling more superior than others, pubs and bars, a good fight or adventure.

Dislikes: Pirates, and people who annoy him and piss him off.

Family: His eskimo buddies are what he considers his family, but they have all died. Read history for specifics.

Friends/Allies: Fellow marines.

Rivals: No particulars as right now.

Heroes: Commander Tenjiku (a made up character.)

Dreams: Nothing specific.

History: For as long Tenkuma has known, he lived in an extremely small civilization on Drum Island, positioned right next to a glacier, where everyone (who was only about 15 people) all shared living space within 3 igloos. Every single man of the civilization learned very young how to be excellent fishermen. They would you know, cut a round hole in the ice and then fish that way. That was their only way of food, so everyone, now including the woman, knew how to cook various fish. Occasionally some men would bring home some dead snow rabbits or such that they killed, but that happened very seldom.

One day, around when Tenkuma was like 21, every man in the entire inhabitance was having a big fishing sort of 'festival' so that they could simply just get a large supply of fish and maybe even a surplus to trade for other food in the other towns on Drum Island. Tenkuma caught hold of something feeling very big, bigger than anything anyone else has ever caught in the tiny area. Everyone gathered around and helped him pull it out. They all were extremely excited, then a frown appeared on all of their faces as they saw not a humongous fish, but a treasure chest. The women then also came out and gathered around Tenkuma.

Seconds later, every single one of the eskimo's fell down, dead, as blood exploded from various vital parts of their bodies.Tenkuma looked extremely frightened, as he saw a large group of pirates holding guns. Meaning they obviously just shot down the entire group. Before Tenkuma could even do anything though, because he was about to get up and try to attack them all, they all fell forward unconscious after being striked in the back of their necks in one hit.

As they fell, one man was seen behind them. A marine; Commander Tenjiku was his name to be exact. Several lower marines then dragged the pirates' bodies away onto a large marine ship. The Commander explained to Tenkuma what lied inside the box, a Devil Fruit. The Commander threatened Tenkuma to either hand over the treasure chest, or only eat what was inside if he would work for the marines.

Tenkuma looked around him before replying. His friends lied dead all around him. There was no point for him to remain in the small village anymore. He gave Tenjiku a simple nod, and slowly opened the box. Without a moments doubt, he tossed the fruit in the air and swallowed it whole as he caught it in his mouth. He then got up, and left everything behind, boarding the Commander's ship to be taken to the Marine Headquarters.

At Headquarters, it was decided that after training and completing various missions for 1 year, Tenkuma would immediately be promoted to the Lieutenant rank, since he held the power of a Devil Fruit. Tenkuma worked very hard for that year, and was indeed promoted to Lieutenant right away. He stands now today at that rank, very loyal to his marine duties.

Height: 6'

Pirate Crew: Cosmic Pirates, pretty soon.

Bounty: 0 beli

Devil Fruit: Kaku Kaku no Mi (Kaku is short for kakutasu, which means cactus)

Likes: Making new discoveries.

Dislikes: People who disrespect life.

Family: Unknown.

Friends/Allies: Probably his crew soon.

Rivals: None.

Heroes: None.

Dreams: To discover something larger than life (see history...)

History: He grew up with a number of people who camped in tents on the desert of Arabasta. Most people in this camp were all intellectual people of some sort. Whether, a doctor, an astronomer, an archaeologist, they were all something like that. Kino grew up studying things like plants, insects, rocks, and animals that inhabited the desert.

After being at the camp for a long time, the group had made numerous scientific discoveries, so they decided to put an end to the camp and for all of them to journey into various towns to announce their discoveries. Kino was 17 when this occured. Before the camp completely seperated though, an elderly man, who Kino was very good aquantinces with, told him to one day discover something larger than life. Kino didn't quite understand what the man said then, and still doesn't fully comprehend it now. But he somehow does it anyway...

It was a long journey for Kino to get to the village he was assigned. He had to go through various things like sandstorms. It was hard for him to find food as well, but when night came, while resting, he came upon a fruit. It was randomly lying there. He ate it, hoping it would satisfy his hunger. It didn't taste good at all, and soon later he realized what it was.

After getting to various towns, and working in labs and such around them, he wanted to journey out to the sea, to make scientific discoveries and observations there. He did not want to join the marines, because he hated being one that took strict orders and such. So he decided it would be best to find a pirate crew.

Ryu. Pirate Fisherman Chef. Approved.

Spoiler:

Image:

Name: Ryu

Height: 5'11"

Weight: 168lbs.

Pirate Crew: The Cosmic Pirates.

Bounty: 0 beli as of right now.

Family: Grew up with his grandfather on Baratie.

Friends/Allies: His crewmates I suppose.

Rivals: A friendly rivalry with Sanji. Although, they haven't seen each other since Ryu left Baratie. He doesn't even know that Sanji has left as well.

Heroes: None.

Dreams: To catch the biggest fish known in the world, named Ooinaru. (Made up fish by me of course.)

History: Ryu grew up on Baratie, where he learned his cooking skills. There he was also friends with Sanji. They sparred a lot, and it was always an interesting fight, considering Sanji's mastery of kicking techniques and Ryu's greatness at punching techniques. Ryu's grandfather also worked on the ocean restaurant as well though, and was an amazing fisherman. He taught Ryu all about different fish and fishing itself. His days were coming to a close soon though, so he asked Ryu to carry out one of his life long dreams though for him. That was to catch Oonaru, which is known as the largest fish in the world. The reason why the old man wanted this is unknown, but Ryu hopes everytime he fishes for the legendary fish. Getting bored of the place though at one point, and wanting a change of scenery, he moved to Loguetown.

There he established a seafood restaurant and was the head cook. He spent all of his time not there fishing with some fellow chefs he hired to work with him, because they constantly needed more and more fish to cook. One day, at the restaurant, a bundle or marines decided to have a meal. At the time Ryu was cooking for a small group of pirates that he had known for a while, who were common customers. The marines of course though started a big quarrel though since the captain held a bounty. The captain took them all out by himself, and in the process inspired Ryu greatly.

After the incident, Ryu longed to become a pirate as well. He hoped to join a crew in the position of cook. So he set out to do just that. He gave the ownership of the restaurant to one of the other chefs, and built his own raft to sail around to neighbouring islands and land, all in search of nakama to join.

Saiyuki Jing. Outlaw Monkey. Approved.

Spoiler:

Name: Saiyuki Jing

Nickname: None.

Age: 13

Gender: Male.

Date of Birth: September 6th

Home Town: Rain Island; East Blue

Occupation: Outlaw, bandit, etc...

Eyes: Brown

Hair: Black, messy, medium length.

Body: Small, thin, flexible, and light body. Not bulky or muscular at all. A random fact about his body is that it is double-jointed. His skin is of a tan tone.

Height: 5' 4"

Weight: 99 lbs.

Description: Very agile and pretty speedy. He has good flexibility and also good reflexes. He is nowhere near a powerhouse, but prefers not to be. He isn't a most intelligent person either.

Clothes: The traditional Cobalt Herald robe, which is of course a blueish/cobalt shaded robe. Underneath he wears no shirt, just a pair of black shorts reaching about two centimeters above the knee. His robe reaches about two inches below the knee, and he wears it open, revealing part of his chest and the shorts. The robe also is sleeveless. At the back of the robe, there is a triangular cut (the point of the triangle pointing upwards) for a reason that will soon be revealed. Oh, and he walks barefoot.

Weapons: A red pole/rod that is one inch bigger than him, 5' 5". When walking, he always holds the rod by his tail. Specifically, he wraps the tail around it.

Special Techniques/Attacks: I'll come up with 'em during the RP :p

Specialties: Acrobatics, gymnastic moves (like doing really cool flips and all), he also likes to balance things on his head, which he would consider a specialty. Also he is very talented at juggling, which he considers a specialty as well.

Pirate Crew: The Cobalt Herald, although they aren't exactly pirates.

Bounty: 0 beli.

Devil Fruit: Saru Saru no Mi, Model Spider (Monkey Monkey Fruit, Model Spider [Spider being short for Spider Monkey of course])

Devil Fruit Ability: Zoan type - This zoan type, of course, has three transformations, or stages, just like all do.

-Stage 1: Jing's normal human self, with no monkey-ness noticeable.

-Stage 2: Jing still looks exactly like his normal self, except for a black monkey tail. He only goes in stage 3 for certain reasons like fighting, and never ever remains in stage 1. So this is the most common stage he is in, because he likes the tail. This is also the reason why there is the slit in the back of the robe, for the tail to be seen.

-Stage 3: Jing loses about 2 to 3 inches in height and transforms into a black spider monkey, increasing his agility, speed, and acrobatics. It also makes him a little smarter, since monkeys are suposedly smart, and Jing is quite dumb.

Personality: Very energetic and active child. He is considered immature to most, but he really doesn't care. He often does things and says stuff that either makes no sense or is just plain stupid, due to his slow brain. He always wants to have an adventure and loves excitement.

Hobbies: Eating bananas, climbing trees, jumping around (in trees to be specific), balancing things on his head, and juggling various objects.

Likes: Bananas, excitement, adventure, fun, circuses, jungles, animals.

Dislikes: Boringness, fire (see history), vegetables, smart people (because they make him look bad.)

Family: Saiyuki Enma, his grandfather. Saiyuki Godo, his father.

Friends/Allies: The Cobalt Herald members.

Rivals: None in particular.

Heroes: Saiyuki Enma.

Dreams: To create a wonderous paradise. (See history)

History: Jing grew up on Rain Island with his grandpa, Enma. Rain Island was a relatively small island that was just one giant tropical rainforest, which is why it is named that. In the heart of the forest is a small village of huts that was established by Saiyuki Enma. Saiyuki Enma was considered an extremely strange person by most, because he looked like a cross of a baboon with an elderly human. The people didn't know, but this was because he was always in his second stage of his devil fruit, which was a baboon fruit. Nevertheless, everyone in the village loved and adored him, especially Jing.

Enma was considered the guardian of Rain Village, and had made numerous prophecies. One day, when Jing was 12, Enma's scariest prophecy came true. Pirates, the Buggy Pirates to be exact, attacked. As they were making their way through the tropics, cutting it down and burning it, Enma was on the verge of death. And so he urged Jing to become the new guardian, presenting him with several gifts. First, a treasure chest. Jing opened it, seeing an odd fruit. It was shaped like a banana, and was black. Enma quickly explained what it was, and told him what it would do to Jing. Jing always wondered why his ancestor looked like a baboon, and now it was all clear. Enma did not force Jing to eat it, nor did he force him to become the island's new protector. Jing wanted to though, for he loved his village, the inhabitants, the forest, and the animals. To him it was paradise. And so Enma gave him his final gift, a weapon that had been passed down in the Saiyuki tribe for centuries. It was a long red rod that was said to have the powers to extend, but the user would have to master it to make it use that ability. Enma was the only one to do this so far, but he trusted Jing could do the same. Saiyuki Enma then passed away in a matter of seconds, just as Buggy the Clown and his minions arrived at the village.

They began slaughtering the few people there were, and taking everything they wanted. Jing used his devil fruit to transform and attempted to take on the pirates with his new weapon as well. He failed miserablely though, because he had never had any training with the rod nor the fruit's powers. He was taken captive by the Buggy Pirates, because they saw him as special and exotic, but as they departed, they left the rainforest and the village in flames, thus creating Jing's hatred for fire.

Buggy forced Jing to become part of his crew, also acting as a monkey in part of their circus, who would learn to juggle, balance things on his heads, and other circus abilities. Jing lived in misery like this for a couple months, hoping to overthrow the pirates soon though. Before he could though, Monkey D. Luffy and his small crew basically did it for him, and Jing was set free. Jing had to admit, he loved the new circus traits Buggy and his men taught him, but after living through hell with them, he hated pirates, although he witnessed good pirates like Luffy. He still despised them.

Jing sailed on a raft to Rain Island afterwards, and broke down in tears, seeing the wilderness burned to nothing. He picked himself up though, and decided to move on, because he knew that's what his grandpa would want him to do. He decided to one day create a new paradise, but he knew he couldn't yet. He would have to become stronger. So he journeyed around for a while, soon turning 13. While adventuring, he trained hard, and soon he met up with The Cobalt Herald. He decided to join them, happy that they were not pirates, and believed that they could make him stronger, while allowing him to have exciting adventures at the same time.

Tsumaru. Outlaw Merman. Approved.

Spoiler:

Name: Tsumaru

Nickname: None.

Age: 23

Gender: Male.

Date of Birth: June 2nd

Home Town: Arlong Park; East Blue

Occupation: Outlaw, bandit, etc...

Eyes: An unusual bright green tint.

Hair: Well he wears a cobalt bandana that covers the complete upper part of his head, and is tied in the back. Um...like the green bandana Zoro occasionally wears, but Tsumaru always wears his. Coming out of the bandana you can see jet black hair reaching down to a little below his chin on the sides and in the back reaching to the bottom of his neck. No bangs come out of the bandana, so basically you see no hair over his face.

Body: Average build. It isn't extremely muscular or anything, but it isn't a puny fragile one either. The color of the skin is a light blue, due to the race he belongs to. His nose is pointier than human's, but it isn't all long and sharp like Arlong's. On his neck there are three slits on each side, like that of a shark. His teeth also resemble that of a shark, in the aspect that they are sharp. On each of his arms there is a finn, as well as on the back of each of his legs, and one on his back that rips through his robe. These finns are not too sharp though, and would only result in a minor cut. His fingers and toes are longer than human's, but they are not webbed. On his right hand is also the tattoo of the Arlong Pirates.

Height: 5' 11"

Weight: 154 lbs.

Description: When first becoming a fighter, he tried a fighting style using his finns as weapons. That did not turn out well at all though, because they were not sharp. So he searched for a different fighting style. His physical strength was low though. He was not a man of brute strength, nor a guy with stunning speed, so any style of combat close to martial arts was not available for him. He tried using swords next, but he was having trouble weilding blades that were that long. This brought him to his current fighting style, which is a keeper. He uses daggers with all different kinds of blades, and has become quite skilled with those. He is able to make swift movements and slashes with them. He is even better when fighting under water as well, obviously because of his race. Also, he is known for his skill of being able to smell blood from far distances (like a shark).

Clothes: The bandana I already spoke about, and the Cobalt Herald robe, which is a cobalt colored robe of course. His robe only reaches to about 4 and half inches above his knees though, they're very short. Under the robe though is a pair of tight black manpris (what I like to call capris for men :p) that reach about 6 and a half inches above his ankle. He wears no shirt under the robe, and walks with his bare merman feet. Other than the manpris, the only other article of clothing under his robe is a belt around his waist that has his daggers all around it. When Tsumaru needs one, he reaches under his robe and pulls it out. Oh, and like I mentioned earlier, the finn on his back rips through the back of the robe.

Weapons: 6 daggers. He uses that many at the most, but doesn't always use them all at the same time.

When using six, he holds one dagger between his index and middle finger, the second dagger between his middle and ring finger, and the third between his ring and pinkie finger. He then does the same with the other hand, making six in total. So basically he has three different daggers, but two of each.

The ones held between his index and middle fingers are daggers that have the blades shaped like a sawfish's nose, which are his favorite. The ones held between his middle and ring fingers are ones with blades that curve/swerve and come to a sharp point at the end, and the last ones, the ones held between the ring and pinkie fingers have regular straight sharp blades.

When fighting with a single dagger in each hand, which is more common, he holds them with the blade pointing down, and the hilt pointing up.

Special Techniques/Attacks: His attacks will consist of different attacks with his daggers obviously, but they will be revealed in the RP.

Specialties: Swimming, smelling the scent of blood.

Pirate Crew: The Cobalt Herald

Bounty: 0 beli.

Devil Fruit: None.

Devil Fruit Ability: None.

Personality: Has a sinister personality to most. He is known for commonly only stating negative things, and hardly ever something positive. Thus, making him very pessimistic. When there is somewhat he wants though, he will stop at nothing until he obtains it.

Hobbies: Well it is known that he likes swimming, but that's just because of his background. Nobody has ever really seen him enjoying any other hobbies.

Likes: Blood, doesn't seem to like many other things.

Dislikes: Pirates, marines, and basically people in general. There are very few people he considers worth knowing.

Family: He doesn't care about his family at all, and knows nothing of them.

Friends/Allies: The Cobalt Herald members. They are some of the few he considers worth knowing.

Rivals: None in particular.

Heroes: Arlong. Although Tsumaru now despises pirates, including Arlong's crew, he hates to admit it, but he use to look up to Arlong a lot when he worked for him, and in the back of his head, he still does admire him to a certain extent. He always acts like he hates him though.

Dreams: He wants to make himself known as the most ruthless and powerful figure of the merman race. Stronger than Arlong and Jembei, the two who now seem to currently be the strongest (Jembei in first place of course.)

History: Tsumaru grew up at Arlong Park, where he learned his fighting skills, and also to use his merman abilities to their max. He worked as an underling in Arlong's pirate crew for a long time, and at that time enjoyed being a pirate. Tsumaru always liked watching Arlong fight, and longed to be like him one day.

This was all until Monkey D. Luffy and his gang showed up. Tsumaru was watching the battle from the sidelines, and was dissappointed in the one he looked up to, Arlong, for losing to someone who looked so weak, like Luffy. After the incident, Tsumaru hated all pirates once he saw Luffy and his crew. He loved being with Arlong's Pirates though. But his love for the crew didn't stop him, he no longer wanted to be a pirate.

And so he left Arlong and the crew behind, departing from Arlong Park and taking everything he learned there with him. He continued training harder and harder at various locations, until meeting the Cobalt Herald at one point. He joined them, wanting to feel like part of a crew again, though happy this wouldn't make him a pirate, just an outlaw. He now realized that Arlong and his crew would be his foes now though, since they were pirates, but Tsumaru managed to make himself develop a hatred for Arlong and every single one of his subordinates.

He now plans to continue his travels with his new allies in the Cobalt Herald, and one day surpass his old master Arlong, and after that, even Jembei. When he looks at the tattoo on his hand that he received while being with Arlong, it reminds him of his goal.

Yuki. Pirate Map-making Navigator. Approved.

Spoiler:

Image:

Name: Yuki

Nickname: None.

Age: 16.

Gender: Male.

Date of Birth: December 26th.

Home Town: Winter Island; Drum Island; Grandline

Occupation: Navigator and Cartographer.

Eyes: Blue.

Hair: Messy, bright blue.

Body: Rather thin and unfit. Not muscular at all. His skin tone is quite pale, since for the majority of his life he was not exposed to heat which would make his skin tan.

Height: 5' 10"

Weight: 141 lbs.

Description: He knows nothing about any form of martial arts or physical combat, so his strength and speed are both not trained at all, and he has not been trained to wield any sort of weapon. These being the reasons he uses solely his Devil Fruit for battle. His stamina is not very high, but that doesn't matter much since his way of fighting does not use much running or motion. He is often called weak, and this actually gives him a strong willpower and determination to not only fight, but win.

Clothes: A blue snow cap, a white hooded-sweatshirt, white furry gloves, dark blue pants, and black and blue footwear.

Weapons: Nothing but his Devil Fruit.

Specialties: Navigating really isn't one of his specialties yet because he is new to it. Although, cartography, or map making, is a specialty of his.

Pirate Crew: The Freak and Creep Association

Bounty: 0 beli.

Devil Fruit: Fuyu Fuyu no Mi (Winter Winter Fruit)

Devil Fruit Ability: Logia - Allows the user to create, control, and become snow. The user may also alter the coldness of the snow, making it harder. If it is raining and the user uses this devil fruit the snow may also become hail. And no, heat from the sun will not prevent the snow from being made. Although it's weakness would be a fire or heat fruit (Ace...)

Special Techniques/Attacks:

• Fuyu Fuyu no Bite - A beam of snowflakes fire from Yuki's palm, aimed usually at the opponents hands. If it makes direct contact with the hand it becomes frost bitten, which would make it harder to wield a weapon.
• Fuyu Fuyu no Dust - A large, single snowflake appears in Yuki's hand. He then blows on the snowflake, sending it out of his hand towards the opponent, where inbetween the snowflake becomes a gust of snowflakes that hurl themselves at the opponent and circle around him/her making their visibility very poor.
• Fuyu Fuyu no Cannon - A snowball the size of a cannonball forms in Yuki's hand, which he adds coldness to to make it also as hard and strong as a cannonball. He then throws this ball at the opponent, usually after they can't see well from the Fuyu Fuyu no Dust.
• Fuyu Fuyu no Blizzard - Yuki inhales deeply, and when he exhales, a humongous amount of hard, sharp, snowflakes depart from his mouth flying at the opponent which can make numerous cuts on the opponent's skin.
• Fuyu Fuyu no Barrage - Yuki begins rapidly spinning his arms, and every time the arms make it around, a hardened, dense, snowball is launched from each. The snowballs become faster and faster and more precise every turn.

More will come during the RP, these are just some starting moves.

Personality: Very playful and carefree, he acts mostly like a child. He doesn't take many things seriously, which may be his biggest flaw. He is not lazy though, which is a good thing. He also could be called a daredevil, for he never considers anything too dangerous. Though that may be out of pure stupidity, no one really knows.

Hobbies: Building things out of his snow, stargazing, making maps, drawing.

Likes: Snow, low temperatures, the night (for looking at stars), space (although he hasn't been there).

Dislikes: Lights (because when there are lights it is harder to see the stars), high temperatures.

Family: Father; Commander Tenjiku of the marines, and his mother.

Nakama: Soon to be the Association.

Rivals: None.

Heroes: Ash; a pirate navigator.

Dreams: To sail across the entire world making a map of it.

History: Yuki grew up at Winter Island with his mother and father. His father wasn't home too often since he was a marine, but when he was home he would show Yuki maps of where he had traveled and stuff, which always intrigued Yuki.

When Yuki was 10, a fairly strong group of pirates known as the Avalanche Pirates stopped in town. They were, fortunately, the nice type of pirates as well. Yuki got to know them quite well after seeing them around town often. He developed a bond with the navigator soon as well. Yuki knew he wasn't supposed to associate with pirates since his dad was a marine, but he figured his father would never even find out since he was always gone.

So, Ash would bring Yuki on the boat and they would sail nearby around the island, making Yuki soon love the waters. This also made him want to learn more about the ocean, and how to navigate on it. So, Ash began to teach and train Yuki to navigate for several years. He also showed Yuki how to navigate using the stars, which seemed to be a strong point of Yuki's. But eventually it was time for the Avalanche Pirates to depart, stopping Yuki's training.

As the pirates were leaving, the incident with Lieutenant Hyouga Tenkuma (see his history) occured, where Tenjiku knocked out the pirates. When he arrived back at Winter Island he learned that his son was spending his days with the pirates, and Yuki learned his father had injured Ash and the crew. He childishly ran off, furious at his father.

He hopped into a rowboat the Avalanche Pirates left behind and began to ride off using his weak navigating skills. He searched for a pirate crew he could join to become a strong pirate like Ash. On his journey, he had noticed a treasure chest on the tiny boat. After becoming starved, he decided to eat the fruit that he saw in the there when he first left. It tasted disgusting, and he later learned what it was from an old wiseman on a nearby island he stopped at.

He was happy he gained this new superpower ability, because he felt it could make him more of a useful asset when he finally joined a party of pirates. So he continued to sail in his boat, on an adventure to find a good pirate crew.

Madam Crow. Hypnotic Marine Doctor. Approved. [NPC]

Weight: 78 lbs.

Description: She has absolutely no physical strengths, but she is known for being very wise and shrewd.

The duration of slumber varies depending on the victim. Once asleep, Crow commands Storm, the name of her pet, to do whatever it wishes to the sleeping foe.

Devil Fruit Ability: Paramecia Type - Grants the eater the ability to create and manipulate any organism under the kingdom of plantae (I say this so that it is clear that it's basically any type of plant life, including stuff like corn stalks or carnivorous plants.) This is not considered a logia because the user can not actually become a plant, only create and control them.

Hobbies: N/A.

Likes: Nature.

Dislikes: Fire.

Rivals: None.

Heroes: None.

Dreams: None. Perhaps he will find one eventually.

History: He grew up on Green Isle, named that because of its many luscious forests, gardens, and other green environments. Kira developed a love for the outdoors, and spent most of his days with the wilderness. One day, at the age of 17, he came upon a tree trunk with a hole in it (you know, like those holes owls are commonly shown in), and also an item in the hole. It was a small chest. He curiously took the mysterious box out of the tree and opened it, only to find a fruit inside. He thought it was odd, and understood nothing about why or how it was where it was, but he decided to eat it regardless.

Three years later, he is now currently a wanderer with no companions other than his pet bird. However, he has discovered and mastered the powers that were gifted to him by the fruit in the forest.

Gamma Akutabi. Pirate Doctor Zombie. Approved.

Spoiler:

Close up on face - [media]http://i2.tinypic.com/717i13q.jpg[/media]
With weapon - [media]http://i10.tinypic.com/7wh876b.jpg[/media]

Name: Gamma Akutabi

Nickname: Zombie. Nickname given by Whitebeard.

Age: 22.

Gender: Male.

Date of Birth: November 28.

Home Town: Grave Isle; Grand Line.

Occupation: Doctor. Ex-pirate hunter.

Eyes: Green.

Hair: Grey/silver color, styled as in pictures.

Body: Not the most muscular guy out there, but by no means puny. He is fairly fit. He has black metal plating covering his right hand and arm, which extends up to his cheek and neck. That is what the metal looking stuff on his face is in the pictures. This gives him advantages such as allowing him to catch bullets with his hand.

Height: 6' 3" (190.5 cm).

Weight: 225 lbs (102 kg). He weighs this much because of the metal plating on his body. Without it he would weigh much less.

Description: His appearance makes him look like the type who is perhaps always serious, one who doesn't know how to laugh, or someone who hates to socialize. Gamma is actually just the opposite though. He likes to laugh a lot, and loves good humor. He likes people in general, and that's why he tries to help every person he can with his medical knowledge and talent.

However, despite these facts, he can be very fearsome in battle. He doesn't quite excel too much in speed, and his so his speed and agility are not much above average. However, his sheer experience with fighting makes him a good combatant. His wisdom and tactical mind assists his triumph in battle. He also is a master with his weapon, which is a one of a kind weapon.

Though, however fearsome he could get in battle, he never allows any of his foes to die. No matter how much hatred he has form the person, his heart and conscious never allows him to take one's life. This compassion could be considered his weakness.

Clothes: As shown in picture. He wears a long white coat with black fur on the sleeves, the collar, and around the bottom of it. Underneath is a black shirt, with the zipper up half way, and black pants, held up with a belt that's buckle is what looks like a skull with bull horns. His footwear is not visible in any of the images, but he wears black boots with a white jagged line across where your toes would be, which look like sharp teeth.

Weapons: He calls his weapon the chainsword. It looks like a sword, and is used similarly to one, but isn't one. It is actually a chainsaw. If you look in the last image I posted, you will see the small blades of the chainsaw, showing it is not just a sword. You tug on a small chain at the hilt of the blade, and the blades of the saw appear and begin moving.
The weapon isn't really made so much for slicing, like a normal sword, but more for shredding its opponents to pieces.

His right arm can also be considered a weapon, since a metal fist can pack a pretty powerful punch. Gamma only uses it on weak opponents though to finish them in seconds.

Special Techniques/Attacks: None listed.

Specialties: Making medicines, doctoring, fighting.

Pirate Crew: He is now currently a member of the Grey Pirates.
He was once a member of The Whitebeard Pirates, only for a specific reason though (see history for details.), and that is where he owes a lot of his combat abilities from. Before being a member of the Whitebeards though, he was actually a pirate hunter (see history for details again.)

Bounty: None.

Devil Fruit: None.

Devil Fruit Ability: None.

Personality: The same as the first paragraph of the description...
His appearance makes him look like the type who is perhaps always serious, one who doesn't know how to laugh, or someone who hates to socialize. Gamma is actually just the opposite though. He likes to laugh a lot, and loves good humor. He likes people in general, and that's why he tries to help every person he can with his medical knowledge and talent.

Hobbies: Training, exploring, making herbs and medicines, studying.

Likes: Adventure, helping people with his medical talents.

Dislikes: Death, disease.

Family: Unknown.

Nakama: The Grey Pirates.

Rivals: None at the moment.

Heroes: Whitebeard.

Dreams: To be able to cure any disease.

History: Gamma Akutabi grew up on Grave Isle in the Grand Line. This island use to be named Glee Isle, many years ago, when several towns prospered there and all the inhabitants of the island were happy and full of glee. However, one day, a pirate crew struck the island. They did their usual pirate thing, ransacking the town markets and such taking all the gold and valuables they could, but with their disappearance they left behind a strange and unknown disease. The disease was similar to leprosy. It was extremely contagious, and so at one point practically everyone who had ever set foot on the island got the disease, but it was also similar in the way that it would just eat away at the body, limb by limb.

Gamma was 16 at the time, and was a doctor in training, under the island's best and eldest doctor. The old doctor eventually contracted the disease, and Gamma did all he could to try to save his mentor, but his efforts were futile. Gamma became the only person on the isle with any medical knowledge, and so he tried to do all he could, without giving up, to save anyone he could. His efforts and attempts, however, had again, lost to the disease. It seemed like his job every day had become burying all the dead. He became the last survivor, and after he left, the island became completely hollow of citizens. All that was on it, other than crushed buildings, were innumerable graves. Gamma now had a hatred for pirates, as well as a dream to to be able to cure any disease.

Gamma left after the epidemic had completely obliterated his home, now 18. He departed by making his own small raft, sailing to an unknown destination. After having to survive through cyclones and such, he had eventually reached the shores of Alabasta. There, one day, he was residing in a tavern, and had no beli to pay. He then looked over to his right at a board that had posters of several pirates, displaying their bounties. This seemed like a good way for him to make the money he would need to survive, as well as making medicines and selling them.

And so, to start his pirate hunting career, he needed to learn how to fight. He had no time to be mentored though. He invented his own weapon and tool of power one night by himself. It was one, surely, no pirate would have ever fought before. It was the chainsword, as described above in the weapon section. He was now ready and set to hunt some bounties.

Now 19, after doing bounty hunting work for approximately a year, Gamma had done pretty good for himself. He had started to become a pretty strong fighter. One night, however he had noticed some black colored rash begin to consume his right arm. The disease from Grave Isle was just now taking its effect. Gamma could not lose his arm, or else his occupation as a pirate hunter would not be able to continue, and also he'd eventually lose his life. Without a cure for the disease, he performed the only operation he could think of. He had attached a black metal plating to his right arm, and part of his face. A very painful procedure it was, but he soon discovered that this actually helped his bounty bunting, since he could do such things as catching bullets with his hand and blocking blades with his arm. And so his bounty hunting proceeded...

Until one day, at age 20, he had lost to a member of Whitebeard's crew. Whitebeard referred to Gamma as a zombie though, because whenever a blow was delievered to him that would kill most people, he seemed to just continue getting up from his wounds, and fighting on, as if there was no injuries on him at all. And so after he was defeated, even though he was a pirate hunter, Whitebeard commanded that Gamma join his crew, and be saved by Whitebeard's doctors, or else he would leave him where he was to die.

Gamma reluctantly accepted, since he definitely did not want to perish yet. And so he then worked on Whitebeard's crew, as both an assistant fighter and doctor, transforming from a pirate hunter who hated to pirates, to a pirate that loved pirates. Although he was wasn't too high on the ranks in the crew, he was still overjoyed to be a member of one of the most fearsome crews to ever sail the seas. He loved the journeys and adventures, and Whitebeard even became his hero. During his time as a part of the Whitebeard Pirates, he grew tremendously in not only his combat abilities, but also his medical abilities, coming closer and closer to his dream.

Now, recently, at his present age of 22, he had to resign from Whitebeard's crew, after being horribly maimed in a battle. After receiving medical treatment from Whitebeard's men again, the captain told him that he should not put his life in danger anymore, and that he should leave the crew for that purpose. Gamma did not want to, but had to listen to his captain. And so he did so, becoming a wandering doctor. He would refuse to be a pirate hunter now, realizing that not all pirate were bad. He chose to make beli simply by being a wandering doctor. He hopes to join another crew though someday, and maybe meet Whitebeard out on the seas again. He will always continue to pursue his dream though, never forgetting all the lives lost at Grave Isle.

History: Grew up on Jaya with her grandfather, who was a well-known and respected doctor and had set up a medical clinic there. Her grandfather taught her everything he could about medicine and being a doctor, and also gave birth to her dream. Jaya seemed to be a hot spot for pirates, and so seeing pirates around all the time inspired Wolfina's fantasies of sailing the seas as a pirate.

One day when Wolfina was 17 she was treating a pirate at the clinic and while the patient was resting she noticed a treasure chest he had brought in with him and placed in the corner. Due to her greediness, she couldn't help but take a look inside the chest. Inside was a fruit. She was puzzled, but ate it, which gave her her Devil Fruit powers. She soon later left her grandfather from Jaya and became a pirate serving as doctor of the Sky Pirates.

Vincent Amor Valentine. Pirate Gunner of Love. Approved.

Spoiler:

Image:



Name: Vincent Amor Valentine
(Amor means Love in a number of different languages, but also is an alternate name for the Roman god Cupid.)

Nickname: Cupid

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Date of Birth: February 14, Valentine's Day.

Home Town: It's said his ancestors existed on the part of Jaya that was blasted into the sky, long before it became part of the sky though. His most recent ancestors though have established their existence in Jaya, the part that remains. However, Vincent actually did come out of the womb in Skypeia, but grew up on the land of Jaya below. Details in the history...

Occupation: Ex-bandit. Currently pirate gunner, as well as an artist (painter.)

Eyes: Bottom left of image. A very dull looking red.

Hair: As in image. He never takes his hat off, so don't worry about what his hair looks like with the hat off :p

Body: Slightly below average build, being quite slim and thin. Normal white skin tone with hardly any tanning.

Height: 6'

Weight: 130 lbs.

Description: Not too good at physical combat, however his great gunning abilities and expertise makes up for that. He's quick to thinking and reacting. He's very agile, and also strangely talented when it comes to ordeals such as dodging bullets. I guess you could say he's got high luck.

Valentine is the type of man who dreams of world peace and love. However, he's the sort that tries to bring about peace by violence, eliminating the evil men who prevent the world from achieving ultimate serenity. Read more about this in the 'Extra' category. Also, just an extra tidbit, once he has defeated his opponent, he stated his motto, "Amor Vincit Omnia," or "Love Conquers All," then finishes them off.

Clothes: As portrayed in image, however with an added accessory. Around his next is always a white bandanna adorned with red and pink hearts. Also, you see that ring that is pierced onto his hat? Yeah, instead that ring is a pink heart pierced to the hat.

Back to the heart covered bandanna though. Roronoa Zoro always puts his bandanna on his head when going into a fierce battle. Vincent does a similar action, however he simply lifts his bandanna up over his mouth and nose, giving him the image a bandit. He only does this in battle though, as he did in the past when he was a bandit, otherwise it's just tied around his neck.

Weapons: Two revolvers, both containing 6 round chambers, named "Saint" and "Cherub." It's assumed that these titles come from Saint Valentine and Amor, which is an alternate name for Cupid, who is commonly shown as an angel or cherub. Both of those titles, Valentine and Amor, are also part of Vincent's full name.

Both are normal looking revolvers, except for their handles. The handle of Saint is a bright red hue, and the handle of Cherub is a pure pink tint. Aside from that difference, the two firearms are identical. Along the barrel of both revolvers their is an inscription, branded in by Valentine himself, in a fancy cursive font, reading 'Amor Vincit Omnia,' which translates to 'Love Conquers All,' which is also Vincent's motto or quote that he lives by.

As for the ammo, each weapon can use normal bullets, but also have their own assortment of bullets, specially crafted by Vincent himself. I'll wait for the RP to reveal the different types, that way it's more of a surprise :p

Special Techniques/Attacks: Will be exhibited in the RP as well.

Specialties: Firearms, painting, thievery (due to his bandit days).

Pirate Crew: The Ragnarök Pirates.
As I believe I've also mentioned, he use to be a member of a notorious gang of bandits. More info on that in the 'Extra' category.

Bounty: 0 beli.

Devil Fruit: None.

Devil Fruit Ability: None.

Personality: His creed, "Love Conquers All," his ideal of a perfect world with love and peace floating in the air , and his title of Cupid greatly influence how he acts. When it comes to women, he acts in orthodox romantic style, kneeling and kissing their hands, instead of instantly groping their boobies.

As you could easily conclude, he tries to be a peacemaker. However, if he believes someone is holding the world back from the perfect era of love, he firmly believes it is of no sin to dispose of those individuals, nor by any of the gruesome needs that may be necessary. He also is a firm believer and valuer of nakamaship.

Hobbies: Practicing his skills with guns, painting (may I add, all of his paintings are always of the common image of Cupid, and also include his saying 'Amor Vincit Omnia.') and preaching about love and serenity.

Likes: Love, that is, love that is not abusive (which I think you know what that means), peacefulness, painting.

Dislikes: Hatred, chaos, evil, sinister individuals.

Family: Parents who's status is currently unknown.

Nakama: The Ragnarök Pirates.

Rivals: No particular men. He clearly sees his enemy as Hatred and anything that obstructs peace.

Heroes: I guess you could claim his hero to be Love itself, however that's just an abstract noun. So no actual people would be considered his hero though.

Dreams: To change the world into an everlasting haven of love and peace, as you probably could have guessed.

History: Born on February 14th, better known as Valentine's Day, in Skypeia, Vincent was destined to be a messenger of love and peace. His family tree traces back to the original inhabitants of the old part of Jaya, and so that's why Cupid has no wings, because he isn't actually Skypeian. Valentine's parents had established themselves on the remaining land of Jaya, but were simply visiting Skypeia (yes they were pirates who made it up the Knock-Up Stream), hoping to get to see their old homeland, at the time of Vincent's birth.

God of Skypeia, who was Gan Fall at the time, appointed Vincent Amor Valentine, that very same day, as Cupid, the God of Love, simply because of the day he was born on. God believed that meant it was Vincent's fate and destiny to be the God of Love, and to be a strong messenger and prophet of love. His heavenly and divine work, though, would clearly be needed much more down on the Blue Sea though. And so that was were he was sent.

The parents of Cupid then raised him on the world below back in Jaya, retiring from their career of piracy. His father and mother were both skilled marksmen, and that's where it is said V.A.V. got his talent and natural knack for using firearms. Valentine departed from his parents on his 15th birthday, since that was when God had declared Cupid was to embark on his journey.

And so he did. He quickly got roped up into the work of the 'Brotherhood of Divine Love,' who were a group of bandits that shared the same ideals as Vincent. He joined them believing he could use them as a starting point for his great journey. More information is listed on his years as a member of the Brotherhood below in the 'Extra' section.

He had joined them at age 15 and left them at age 20. His time amongst them made his strength grow immensely, and it was in those years that Valentine created his revolvers. He has been solo ever since for 2 years, continuing his work as Cupid, executing those who opposed love, and constantly moving towards his dream. To get by in life, he sold his paintings to make beli. He also believed his artwork could help spread the message of love and peace.

Extra: The group of bandits Valentine belonged to were known as the 'Brotherhood of Divine Love.' The mission statement, or really the reason why they established themselves, was purely for purging the world of sinners that did not bring about the coming of peace. They were not pirates, solely bandits.

Vincent Amor Valentine was a valued member of the band, and his pseudonym for the group was Cupid, since all the members of the gang had aliases and code names. The crew basically operated as normal bandits would, slaying their nemeses, working basically as a mafia. They strongly believed their actions were just, and Vincent still does to this day, with no regrets really. He simply decided to go solo though eventually, since he believed he could fulfill his work better that way. The Brotherhood disbanded shortly after his leave.

Scar. Marine Commodore Magma Mummy. Approved.

Name: Scar

Nickname: Magma Mummy

Age: 27

Gender: Male

Date of Birth: May 26

Home Town: Magma Islet; Grandline

Occupation: Marine Commodore (same rank as Smoker after he was promoted.)

Eyes: A dark dull reddish hue.

Hair: Only limited parts of his hair is actually visible, as you can see from the pictures. However it is obvious the color is black, and is probably relatively long.

Body: As for his build, he's a step above an athletic build, having some more muscle and bodily strength. His skin is hardly visible, really only seen in certain areas on his face, but it is extremely tan, due to his history, which you will soon read off. He doesn't have a very welcoming, or charming appearance as well, and so most people choose not to associate themselves with Scar.

Height: 6' 1"

Weight: 153 lbs.

Description: I wouldn't call him a brute force type of fighter, a speedy combatant, nor an enlightened tactical genius. He's considered a creative battler. He mixes aspects of different fighting styles with the power of his Devil Fruit, and is known for using surprise-like and unexpected assaults, instead of straightforward attacks. His fighting style really relies on his fruit though. Without it, sure, he can throw some punches and dodge some blows here and there, but he'd be relatively weak, considering how strong a marine of his rank should be.

Clothes: His garb consists of the following. His incinerated body is wrapped totally in white bandages, delivering the mummy part of his nickname. His hands sport brown gloves, and his feet have brown boots. He often wears a blue toned kimono-like piece of attire, usually only over his left shoulder though. In addition, he often is seen with a long pipe in his mouth. This is all seen in the second image.

Weapons: His Devil Fruit.

Specialties: Battling, survival, anything pertaining to his marine duties.

Pirate Crew: None, Marine Commodore.

Bounty: 0 beli.

Devil Fruit: Kazan Kazan no Mi (Volcano Volcano Fruit)

Devil Fruit Ability: As a logia, it allows the user to produce, manipulate, and become molten lava. The user would also be immune to being burned or incinerated. The counter to this ability, since as you know logias's weaknesses would be their natural enemy, would be some sort of fruit that would be able to cool the lava, making it a solid where it would be destroyable if the opponent is strong enough. Also if somebody has eaten a fruit that has rendered their body immune to being incinerated, the Kazan Kazan no Mi wouldn't hurt them.

Special Techniques/Attacks: Will be made in the RP and listed as they come along.

Personality: Pretty self-centered, or perhaps that isn't the right word. Really, he simply just doesn't care about other people's needs, finds it too troublesome. He'd rather work on bettering his own self, and let the others deal with their problems themselves.

He doesn't seem to have much of a sense of humor, and is rather stern, and quite stubborn. When he's made up his mind, nobody will change it, with the exception of someone he respects. And he really only respects those who he deems as strong individuals, not only in power, but also in heart. He's cryptic, and pretty hard to figure out unless you know him well.

He doesn't fight as a marine to eradicate piracy, nor because he believes in moral justice like Ao Kiji and some other marines. So his position as a marine doesn't really reflect his personality in many visible ways.

Hobbies: Relaxing while smoking his pipe. He hasn't been noticed to really take a liking in anything else, other than the fighting, not because he's bloodthirsty, but for the thrill of combat and survival, and to gain strength.

Likes: Well, I pretty much cleared that up above.

Dislikes: Dependant people, bothersome people, weak challengers.

Family: Perished at the eruption of Mt. Maguma on Magma Islet.

Nakama: N/A.

Rivals: He says every fighter is his rival, since he wants to become the strongest of all fighters.

Heroes: Whoever he sees as the strongest, which at the moment is Fleet Admiral Sengoku.

Dreams: To become the strongest man to ever live.

History: Scar grew up on a small island, an islet, known as Magma Islet. The island is dominated by an active volcano, called Mt. Maguma, at the center of the land. The only town on the island is built at the bass of the volcano, and some buildings are actually even built going up the slope of the monstrous geographical masterpiece. The island was pretty much covered with ash as well. Near the peak of the volcano, all of the villagers had always noticed a small, dead bushel tree.

At age 16, Scar ventured up the incredible incline one dark, starry, night with a full moon. He was seeking the peculiar plantlife at the apex. Sure enough, he reach his destination. Hanging from one of the branches, dangling over the opening of the volcano, was one red fruit, one Scar had not recognized. Being the curious boy he was at the time, he reached for it. He grabbed hold of it, and simultaneously lost his footing and fell into the opening of the mountain.

Scar sank into the molten lava resting in the volcano. About 10 seconds later, the enormous volcano erupted, firing a large wave of magma, lava, smoke, rocks, and ash into the sky, only to come crashing down on the land below. As you could guess, the civilization was wiped out, just like that.

Scar then found himself buried under ash and rubble. He had been shot from the volcano with the eruption, and survived probably because he had taken a bite of the fruit, which was a Devil Fruit with the powers of lava, immediately after being submerged in the magma, since his body had tanned and got much darker, which could only be from the intense heat. That's the only way it could have been possible. Scar was completely alone now though, no human or form of life existed on the land from that day on.

He somehow made it off the islet, probably by building his own coracle. He then found his dream at some part soon in his life, to become the strongest man to ever exist, and to be able to conquer anything. He needed a way to achieve this goal though. He could be a pirate, a pirate hunter, a marine, there were countless options. He chose the marines ultimately, and has been a marine now since age 19. He has managed his way to obtain rank of Commodore, and plans to continue his journey.

Weapons: Her main weapon is an artificial claw (with four blades). It slides onto the hand like a glove, and then climbs up the forearm, strapping around it, so that it can also be used for blocking.

Different claws include icicle claws, steel claws, gold claws, seastone claws, and much much more to be seen.
