Wealth, fame, power... Gold Roger, the King of the Pirates obtained this and everything else the world had to offer. And his dying words drove countless souls to seas.



These words lured men to the Grand Line in pursuit of dreams greater than they've ever dared to imagine! This is the time known as 'The Great Pirate Era'!

In this time known as the Great Pirate Era, several things have ocurred. Countless pirates fight over the treasure known as One Piece, and the Navy goes through great efforts to see those same people imprisoned. People have been named Emperors, Warlords and whatnot, and even then, people still search for the one and only One Piece inside the Grand Line. Veterans and rookies alike, all of them have gone into the Grand Line to search for that great treasure. All of them are impressive in their own right, but what has impressed the Navy the most are the super rookies suddenly appearing all over the world. They are becoming more and more of a threat as time goes on and they become stronger.

This is the story of a certain group of pirates, and how they rise through their ranks to achieve their dreams!

All right! I just started One Piece a while ago (I'm still at episode 400-something, though), and I've just been CRAVING a One Piece RP. Even so, though, people often tend to forget these easily, so I'd like this to be a small group RP with some dedicated people that won't drop out in a long time, at least, not drop out before things get interesting. Then again, people seem to come to these kinds of RP's like flies, so that was a short lived dream. xD Still, the RP will follow as long as there are even if a few dedicated people.

This RP will be set in a One Piece AU with none of the original characters in here. Meaning.....! Yes, you can have any Devil Fruit you want! As long as it isn't too OP, that is. Like the Yami Yami No Mi, or the Pika Pika no Mi, or shite like that. That does not mean you cannot have a Logia fruit, but please do be careful on how you go around things. Oh, and also, original Devil Fruits! Yes, you can make your own Devil Fruit! As long as it has reasonable weaknesses and all.

Of course, if you'd like some other kind of role that isn't here, you are free to come up with one. The ones that are necessary are highlighted in the list as well. Also, having a role like those does not necessarily mean that you cannot fight too. You can also double in characters if you want, we may need to do so in the end, though. My character will be the captain and will also recruit everyone else's characters in time, and so, since our pirate crew will be the main focus in this story, we may need to double in order to make things more interesting with enemies and whatnot, so that not all of them are controlled by me. And so, you are also free to Warlords or even Emperors to fit the story of your character, maybe even use them as enemies later on!

• The usual part of the rules, no metagaming, godmodding, Mary Sue/Gary Stu or similars. Do it once, get out. No excuses.
• There will be a limit of waiting for people of about 5 days. If after that period there is no singal of them, their character will be killed off without excuses and another spot will be opened. This will not happen if you let me know in advance that you will not be around, though.
• There's no actual requirement for paragraphs. As long as the paragraph helps to the progress of the story and is a good paragraph, then it is okay.
• There is no character limit. Players will also help towards arcs and whatnot by making villains as well.
• In this kinds of RP's cooperation is necessary, as so, I'd like everyone here to always be thinking on new ways to get on witht he RP. They will be heard and followed if they are good enough. People will also be in charge of their own arcs as well, coordinating them and writing the history of them for everyone to interact with.
• Be nice to others please! If we inevitably get caught on an argument, then my word is final. If you really feel like you got to solve those problems, then take it to the PM's.
• Any other forum rules of the Guild apply, so take that into account.
• Last, but not least and really important. Have fun!

Here, we will keep a record of things that have happened IC. It will also help people who've been away or that are just joining to keep up with things.

Emeri has set sail and is now searching for her own pirate crew!

So you guys don't forget what kind of ship we are currently in.

A miserable raft made out of logs

• NeoAC & Asuu have evolved to Co-GM's! Masaki Haruna is an editor as well!
• People with accepted characters should send their ideas on how to recruit their characters to me so we can discuss it together. These mini arcs can have a villain as big or small if you want, as they may become huge antagonists in the future.
• A Marine Crew has been opened! Feel free to apply to it by changing the Pirate Crew part of the CS to Marine Rank. Marines don't hold bounties either, so take that into account.
• Logia Devil Fruits have been banned! Canon or not, you cannot have one at the moment!
• The Adventure will start! The first ones to be recruited will be Asuu and clanjos! We may also get a better ship in the process as well, since, well, I don't think a raft can hold three people at once xD

Here we'll keep track of The Seven Warlords Of The Sea as they appear, either in people's CS's or as villains.

• Kirstie D. Alexei - Known powers: Pika pika no Mi. No more than that is known
• Makai Soryuu - Known powers: It is unknown whether or not he has a devil fruit, but given his statements of "My whole body is my sword" it is suspected he holds the Supa supa no Mi.

---

Keeping track of known Emperors of the sea.

None at the moment

---

Keeping track of known Marine Admirals

• Jun'you - Known powers: Yami yami no Mi. Anything more about him unknown

I can probably co-GM if you want. Business has been slow in Indigo, so I've got some time.

want me to throw my character in? And I can co-GM as well if your interested.

Is perhaps the role of entertainer open?

Name: Marina
Age: 17
Race: Mermaid
Height and Weight: 5'4", 128lbs
Pirate or Marine: Marine

Bounty: 100,000,000

Personality:
Cheeky, cheerful, and always full of weird ideas in the making. Marina is laid-back and loyal to her crew, and is very concern about them and keeping the group together, as the heart of the crew, she is seen as the 'genius bruiser' due to her cunning as a mermaid. She is confident about her skills and would be in help no matter what and in many ways she'll repay her gratitude a thousand fold and not ask anything in return, when praised with affection, she easily gets embarrassed. The thing that gets her interest is anything that is something new to her and out of curiosity she'll be under the loop. Marina as a matter of fact have no clue about modesty at all and curiosity kills the cat, even her looks are revealing and can't be bother about it. (In mermaid form)

History:
A runaway princess of the Neptune Family, a bounty has been set on her ever since she ran away, a bounty of that is to whomever may find her shall reap the reward. Will add more in accordance to GM.

Abilities:
-Talking to marine creatures.
-Merfolk strength.
-Merman Combat, manipulation of water.

Inventory:
Blue Pearl. A relic that can give her legs and make her look more human.
Normal clothes.
Trident.

Hmmm... If we're going with the whole "gradually recruit crew members" route, going to put Maisie forward as one of the first recruits so we can upgrade to an actual ship pretty quickly. Would probably be old, cramped and a bit of a fixer-upper, but at least it'd be an improvement over a pile of sticks. XD

Same. I sort of want Ryu to be one of the more 'older' members, and something like an advisor. Maybe he and Maisie could be on the same first Island the Captain heads to?

Is the spot for sniper still open?

Is the spot for sniper still open?

I just posted a CS for it, sorry

Uh... Pretty sure the character tab is for accepted characters only. ^^;

Name: Shino Hakobite

Gender: Female

Nicknames/Aliases: Shino

Epithet: Blood Bringer

Age: 21

Bounty: ---

Hometown: North Blue, Rubeck

Pirate Crew: Marine(?)

Role: Sniper

Abilities & Skills:
-Scope Sight ~ Shino has incredible eyesight allowing for sniping without a scope

Devil Fruit: Chi Chi no Mi



Personality: Shino is distant. She doesn't talk to others, but she will help out when others are in need. She is strong willed and will not give up. She is even willing to risk her life for her friends.

Biography:
Shino was born on Rubeck Island. Her life started out like any child's would. Growing up with her family and sister. But when her island was attacked by pirates that changed. Shino's family as killed and she was taken onto the ship, to be trained as a sniper. While with the crew Shino ate her devil fruit out of spite. She had hated the crew and when told not to eat the fruit, she ate it. Specific details after that have been lost to time, but since then Shino has always been a pirate.

Theme Song: Will Fill in Later

Other:

Anyone got ideas on what kinda theme I should use for Light? Or should I make a 3d sculpt first?

@BlackCatUm... Not to be nitpicky, but... If she's a sniper, wouldn't a lack of depth perception (which being blind in one eye would lead to) be really detrimental to that profession? ^^; Also, this part is really nitpicky but the Devil Fruit name doesn't fit the naming scheme for the Japanese names for Devil Fruits (that being a two syllable onomatopeia or more rarely verb said twice, eg. "Gomu-Gomu no Mi" or "Goro-Goro no Mi").

...Maybe it's just me but she doesn't really come off as a wacky One Piece character to me either but that's especially nitpicky on my part. ^^; Sorry about that.

I just noticed we only have 1 male so far.

@Rin

Ill fix her depth perception problems sorry

Haruna knows she is accepted, so just post Marina in the Character tab.

@clanjos Your powder monkey is accepted. Feel free to post him in the Character Tab.

@BlackCat As said by Rin, I think your girl doesn't really fit a pirate role. To be honest, piraes are more about being together and whatnot, and given her personality, I don't think she'll be all too good as part of a pirate crew, even more so because she is strong willed. Which is why I want to make a suggestion guys. Do you think we should open spots for Marines? Maybe a Marine crew that would, eventually, pursue our own pirate crew? Kind of a constant rivalry between the two groups, and times where they would also work together and things like that.

If this suggestion is something people like, then you can turn your character into a Marine, as I think she fits more the image of a Marine rather than a pirate. If not, well, you'll need to change her, if even a little bit to fit a pirate crew.

@Quatro Yeah, feel free to wipe up a CS in the meantime if you'd like, as I think we might end up opening up a marine crew.

Also, as of now, Asuu and NeoAC will become Co-GM's. They have permission to accept CS's while I'm not around, as well as move things along IC should I ever be absent for whatever. Masaki Haruna also holds a good deal of authority here, and she will help review CS's and whatnot.

And lastly, @Everyone with accepted characters. Send me a PM with your idea on how Emeri should recruit you. A mini arc, if you will, in which Emeri will win your character's trust and lastly, recruit you. If you'd prefer to leave the drama for later, then just tell me so and Emeri will merely pick you up. This will be added to the announcement section of the third post as well.

I'd prefer Sammi to be one of the first pickups as well. Selfish reasons really, I'm just eager to get underway.

@Eklispe I forgot you Eklispe. Sadly, no, it's been taken. Feel free to take any other spot you'd want, even one that isn't in the list.

Oh, and pick ups and recruiting will be decided at random. I shall use a dice to determine the first two per island.
