Little bit of WIP Name: Britslebane Age: 19 Gender: Male Race: Human Appearance: Marine or Pirate: Pirate Bounty: 10 beli Techniques/Fighting Style: Breakdancing and getting an opponent hit by his own or his allies attacks. Fruit: Devil Fruit: Suwapp Suwappu Fruit(Swap Swap Fruit)- Allows the user to teleport and "Swap" places with something else. Currently he can only swap himself with another person but obviously the power will develop as the story progresses. The only limit for this Fruit currently is he has to be able to see what he is swapping, for example he cannot swap himself with a person behind him if he can't see them, however it does work through reflections. Techniques: N/A Personality: Flippant, reckless, careless, whimsical, mischievous, curious. Bristlebane really does whatever he feels like. Whether that entails playing for coins in a town square or breaking into a castle treasure simply to leave a calling card. Bristlebane clearly has no purpose in life yet has large array of skills keeps him out of trouble moving from one place to the next. Backstory: Bristlebane doesn't remember much of his life. Anything further than a year back he has trouble recalling. Not that he cares, what's he done and what he is going to do has no importance to him. His well aware of how strange this is to other people but merely finds it amusing. One of the few things he does remember was eating his devil's fruit. He had snuck into some high security building or another simply to see what was inside it, there was a strange looking fruit. Needlessly to say Bristlebane was curious to see what was so great about this fruit and naturally ate it. Suffice to say Bristlebane was very disappointed at how it tasted and now will no longer eat fruit of any kind, for now anyway. Other: Can do Voice impressions, Ventriloquism, and has skill with all musical instruments. Is an excellent dancer and won't eat fruit.

Name: Elizabeth "Lily" Rutherford Age: Sixteen Race: Human Height and Weight: Lily is pretty small, she stands in about 4 feet and 5 inches tall and weighs no more than 50lbs. Pirate or Marine: Pirate Appearance:
Bounty: 0 Beli Personality: Lily loves to explore, and quite curious in just about anything. Although she is naive, she also has a strong will, and will not stop at anything once she set her mind unto something, which makes her a pretty stubborn one. She is quite sentimental when it comes to people who are dear to her, and will try to protect them at any cost. She's also pretty guillible and clumsy. History: WIP Abilities: She ate the Poke Poke no Mi (Pocket Pocket Fruit), a Paramecia devil's fruit that enables her to open pockets anywhere, even in thin air, and pull several random things out of it. The idea is that once she open a pocket, another pocket opens anywhere near the thing she desires to acquire, and then she would only need to fish them out. Although most of the time, she cant control where the other pocket would open and end up pulling something else instead. Techniques: 1. Profonde: Misdirection - Lily opens a pocket right where an attack would land, thus redirecting the damage some place else (or back towards the enemy). 3. Servantes: Corridinho - Lily creates multiple pockets around her, and start pulling and dropping several things at a time in an extremely fast and fluid motion that she would appear to her opponent like she's dancing. 4. Barrage - Lily opens multiple pockets around her opponent, and all the things she pulled and dropped during Servantes: Corridinho will rain down upon her enemy in a relentless torrent. 5. Top Hat Production: Ally Call - Lily opens a large pocket, and from there, with an immense amount of effort, she will pull an ally out to her aide (or to safety). Inventory: She always carries with her a small sling bag with an assortment of things inside. This includes a notebook that serves as her diary, a quill and a bottle of ink, several Log Pose with a constant heading, a binocular and a lunch box filled with sweets.

Name: Javian Northstar II Age: 19 Race: Super Human: Javian is a Super Human. Really what it means is that he comes from a line of humans with extraordinary genes. He posseses no 'unnatural' abilities. But Super Humans are just naturally above average Humans. Comparable to Fishmen in physical attributes. Height and Weight: Javian is a rather tall man thanks to his heritage putting him at a height of 226 Centimeters and a weight of 102 kilograms. Pirate or Marine: Pirate. [Appearance] Tall dark and handsome. Javian sports eyes with a brown color and a golden trim. His hair is black and short, the bangs ending just above his eyes. He is usually seen wearing leather jackets and a regular shirt under it, matched with hardened leather pants and big boots. He also carries a plated shoulder pad on his right shoulder that used to belong to his father. The Shoulderpad is very special to him. Bounty: 0 Beli Personality: Honorable, loyal and truthful, this is the trinity that is the cornerstone of Javian's personality. He's a knight in spirit, always there to stand up to evil and protect the weak. Honor before all, to never back down and to always stand his ground. With this strong sense of morales, it might seem odd that he chose to be a pirate, but he despises the world government and the Marines due to their atrocities that had been committed to Javian's family. He personally thinks of himself as closer to a Revolutionary than a pirate as he has no ambitions to become the pirate king, but instead become powerful enough to change the way the world works. To break down the world government and the marines and create a new form of law enforcement. An institute that isn't corrupt and cowardly but instead noble and brave. History: wip. Abilities: 'Dragoon Style' Javian was trained to be a agile and powerful warrior, a Dragoon. A warrior wielding armor and most notably a lance and utilizing such things as tall leaps and heavy strikes. His style means that he can hit very hard with one move but it requires him to have extensive precision and dexterity to execute. Techniques: Wip. Inventory: His Spearblade: Closer to a glaive, really. It allows him to fight with it like a spear, but also use it in close quarters combat like a sword. Northstar Shoulderpad: The Shoulderpad holds the power of the Barrier Barrier fruit, as it was designed to be able to withstand the force of a dragon's fire. It's power is however based on the strength of whoever it is being used by. Javian can only use it by holding his hand on it thus activating it. The Shoulderpad can generate a directional shield, as well as a entire protective bubble around Javian. Currently the barrier is able to withstand cannon fire for a short amount of time. Will finish when I get the all clear on what I have so far, and when I get a little bit of more time on my hands, so tomorrow.

WIP Name:Jynmi Imsar Age: 17 Race:Human Height and Weight: 6'2, 220 lbs Pirate or Marine: Pirate [Appearance]: Jynmi has silver white hair, a healthy tan thanks to his time travelling with the marines, and pale blue eyes that are the color of a blue sky with a thin layer of clouds. He always wears thick rimmed glasses, and has a small scar on the left side of his cheek from the last time his father and him talked. Bounty: 50,000 Beli(I think, but it could be more) Personality: He's an INFJ personality type. I'll expand on this more later. History: Jynmi was born to a well to do merchant, and spent the first decade of his life training under his father's stern eye, learning how to run the family business. This proved very unsatisfactory for the young man who more than anything wanted to read the literary works of those long gone legends, masters of the written word. At first his father believed he could force his way through the young man's stubbornness, but as time went by it became apparent that this method would end in failure. Thus since his son wouldn't follow in his footsteps, Jynmi's father decided to give him an edge. So he arranged to have the boy travel the world with marines for inspiration and a better understanding of the world and how things worked. This did not have the effect his father had hoped for. Instead of becoming inspired with the world, the military, and everything in between, Jynmi became deeply disturbed by the world government, and how it controlled everything through what he saw as a corrupt military which valued strength and will more than logic and compassion. He did write a book, but it wasn't the magical career driven worked he'd dreamed of, but a long, critique of the world government, and an urging for everyone who found themselves living under the iron fist to rebel, and replace it with something better, more democratic, and interested in the plights of the working class. The first person he showed his book to was his father, whom immediately decried the book, and would've destroyed it, did destroy it, if not for Jynmi's decision to make a duplicate, just in case. There was a threat, give up the idea of crusading against the world government, or be disowned. He chose the former, at least up until the point where he went behind his father's back, forged some paper work, and published thousands of copies of his book, and shipping it out to various town markets. Before his father could find out, he packed his things, took the devil fruit from the family's safe, because you never knew when such a thing would come in handy, and fled with a boatman who he'd paid to help him escape. He didn't escape very far before the man learned of who he was, what he did, and dropped him off at the nearest port. Abilities: (Haven't decided what the devil fruit is yet.) Jynmi is very logical, and good at picking out details. He has an excellent memory, and is fairly well travelled. Despite lacking any formal training, he's managed to pick up a few things from travelling with the marines, and due to his size, he's got a fair amount of strength at his disposal. Techniques: None yet

Yeah, but why though? There's a reason that there isn't a Strawhat with a Logia power, it kills tension. You can be attacked in, at most, 5 different ways; Surprise, Seastone, Haki, being dunked in the water, and whatever particular weakness your fruit has. Of these Seastone is super rare and only available to people of influence or Marines who have maybe a few net guns, Haki doesn't become relevant until you're almost halfway through the Grand Line, since no one can grab you the only way water comes into play is if your ship is shot out from under you (not likely, seeing as Logias are living artillery cannons capable of throwing around huge amounts of their element in whatever direction they choose), you might not even have a specific weakness depending on the Logia Fruit you ate, and the surprise thing can be countered by training your defensive transformation to be automatic. Anything that isn't one of those things? You are golden! You can walk through any attack, yawn off any giant monster, kind of just take a leisurely stroll through the Grand Line until you're almost at the New World at which point you start getting ruined because, holy cow, things are now actually capable of hurting you. You are finally consistently in danger of dying. This creates a weird dilemma, sort of like a reverse Aquaman situation. You ever seen the old Superfreinds cartoon? Well, since Aquaman was one of the main characters they always had to send the League somewhere where Aquaman had something to do, or they'd have a aquarium, or a fishtank, or something. The point is, they always had to write in something for Aquaman, even if they were in the middle of the land they had to have something where Aquaman could do his thing. If Aquaman was involved they had to write around Aquaman because otherwise he had nothing to do. With a Logia, you have to write around them. You always have to have their weakness knocking about in a fight or they have literally already won, and then they can go and win everyone else's fight because that only makes sense because they're not hurt. You have to write something, to include something, to keep the Logia locked down so they don't spoil the tension of the entire situation. We start at Lougetown. For a long time locking a Logia down is going to mean Seastone, and that going to get weird because that stuff is supposed to be rare. So either I'm not being threatened by anything, or I'm reduced to a normal, non-fruit powered person (or just taken out of the equation) whenever things get important to preserve tension. Either way, I'm bored.

To add on to this - Logia Devil Fruit powers tend to be uninfluenced by a person's physical prowess. In other words, a weak person eating the Mera Mera no mi would have Logia powers of the exact same scale as a stronger person eating the Mera Mera no mi. It's different from say, Zoan type fruits which actually enhance your physical abilities, and Paramecia types which can usually be used in conjunction with your physical abilities. Of course, there are some Logia fruits which are an exception, but there aren't many of those. So, you'd be stuck at a pretty static power level for the entire journey, Devil Fruit-wise. If you're unable to level buildings with your Logia powers alone, you'll never be able to level buildings with your Logia powers alone. Or something like that.

That's a lot of text. Though, Ostarion, you're wrong. That's not how it works. The Logia does scale with your own power, as showed by Ace whom oringially was getting mauled by Whitebeard when he joined the crew. And by the time of Marineford Ace was third strongest on his crew. His powerlevel increased, he didn't just become smarter and more used to his power. Akainu was stronger than Ace, which is why he could kill Ace. Not because Akainu's power was more powerful than his. Though: Personally, I would suggest doing an elemental Paramecia instead of a logia power mostly due to the Logia power being very powerful and usually considered to be on par with Mythical Zoans.

It wouldn't be a problem if the game was starting near the New World, or even if Haki had more presences before that point. But, for example, Chaka and Pell couldn't use it and they're the personal bodyguards to the leader of a World Government nation.

I mean. There is nothing that's "balanced" in One Piece. There could be Logia's before the New World, even before the grandline. The reason there's the least Logia users is because there's fewer Logia fruits than of the other fruits. So if we would have 5 DF users, out of which one was a logia, that wouldn't be odd. In a OOC-Balance point of view though, I could argue that would be a little overpowered.

Appearance: http://makkiesharks.deviantart.com/art/Wip-512245367 Name: Rem Age: 17 Race: Human Height and Weight: Five feet and six inches, 142 Pounds Bounty: 0 Beli Personality: Rem is generally a very carefree person, unlikely to be the serious and demanding captain most would expect from a captain. He tends to act goofily and mess around, often being very blunt and disrespectful when doing so. When he speaks, he is often very loud. In fact, seeing him spend a day without yelling only occurs once in a blue moon, if even. Like many pirates, he is not only foul mouthed, but has lots of ambition as well. This stems mostly from his own avarice. He wants to enjoy anything the world can offer him, gain anything that he can attain, and explore parts of the world he's never seen. He is very loyal to his comrades, especially his crew mates. They are treated like family, even insulting them would be enough to make Rem lose his temper. Rem, since his early childhood, has always been interested in learning about the world. While not initially seeming like he would, he possesses an adequate knowledge of the world's history. As a child, he dreamed of traveling to these places. This is one of the things (among others) that inspired him to set out to sea. While he is very dumb when it comes to other subjects, he has a vast knowledge of various islands. He is a very skilled piano player, an instrument he was taught to play by his guardian. He is very fascinated with bizarre or strange things, such as weird animals or people. He has a natural love for fighting and has great pride in his strength. History:
Abilities:
  • Bomu Bomu no Mi: Rem has eaten the Bomu Bomu no Mi, a devil fruit that allows him to blow up any part of his body without damage done to himself. He is granted immunity to explosions and can determine the quality of gunpowder by tasting it.
  • Pianist: Because his guardian was a musician, Rem was able to learn to play the piano.
  • Enhanced Strength: Years of daily training have allowed Rem to gain extraordinary amounts of physical power.
Techniques:
  • Boom Punch: Rem simply punches an opponent and explodes his fist while doing so.
  • Boom Barrage: Rem lets out a multitude of rapid punches, blowing his hands up each time he lands a punch.
  • Mucus Mine: Rem removes dried mucus from his nose and places it on the floor, blowing it up when an enemy gets near it.
  • Stealth Explosion: Rem flings a piece of his mucus onto an unsuspecting enemy. As the enemies are typically caught by surprise, he can blow them up without alerting them beforehand.
  • Boom Palm: Rem covers his opponent's face with his palm and blows it up.
Inventory: N/A

No, no. I agree. I'm speaking from a purely out of character, storytelling point of view. Where we are there just aren't a lot of things that could give a Logia pause and I'm just worried about how much fun that will be for someone to play.
