<Snipped quote by jynmi88>

Aside from not being sure why it's being classed as legendary (huskies aren't exactly a legendary creature after all, and the abilities seem pretty balanced)... Well actually I just said it there, the abilities seem pretty balanced and fair. Gives a few decent perks, but has a built-in additional weakness to compensate. Seems fine to me.

...Meanwhile, I'm taking way too long to do this because I keep coming up with ideas only to quickly discard them because I'm overthinking things and deciding that they're not really all that interesting. Hum. Oh well, hopefully something will stick eventually. ^^;

Oh! Well, I can't really remember the actual definition for legendary zoan's being explicitly explained, and all we had to go on were examples. So I figured that legendary zoans were just zoans of creatures that don't regularly exist in nature, and since huskies are artificial breeds, I figured they fit the description ^-^;

Ah! I understand how you feel. Sometimes I take forever to come up with an idea I like. What happened me this time was the knowledge that since we'll be making an entire crew between ourselves, I still had more chances to come up with interesting abilities I'd like to stick with. Plus, we'll also be doing the rest of the characters so there's even more opportunities for characters.

and a bump.

[screams internally]

This would be working out so much better if I didn't keep deciding that character ideas would work better as later recruits rather than part of the initial two really. D: I guess I need to try and kick things into overdrive or whatever over the weekend.

is it creating a character you're having difficulty with, or the abilities they're going to use?

@jynmi88Okays, got something typed up I guess. Ended up just going with "generic shonen protagonist" for her personality but oh well, if it works it works. Hope it's okay. ^^;

EDIT: Her picture was finished, so that's been edited into the profile in place of the crappy WIP sketch.

• Name: Danica Pohlig
• Alias: Hachimaki
• Age: 16
• Appearance: Something like this!
• Personality: Bubbly and hyperactive, it seems as though Danica can't sit still for even a moment. She's pretty hotblooded and overemotional at times, and... Also admittedly a bit of an idiot. Well, it would be more accurate to say she's just simpleminded and doesn't worry too much about complicated concepts, although the fact remains that she's also not especially well educated. Still, she's full of boundless enthusiasm and a surprisingly strong sense of justice for a pirate, as whilst she pursues her dream of finding One Piece she also believes that those who would trample upon the dreams of others are the lowest of scum and need to be punished.
• Background: As a young girl, Danica's mother would often regail her with tales of Gold Roger, and his daring escapades as he made his name as the Pirate King. As one would expect, with the Golden Age of Piracy going on at the time this made the simpleminded girl obsessed with becoming a pirate (even if she didn't quite understand what that entailed) and finding the final legacy left by Gold Roger, the legendary One Piece. So one day, with nothing but the clothes on her back and the headband her mother had given her as a keepsake, she went off and joined the first pirate crew she could find as their cabingirl. Unfortunately for her, the crew of Captain Barrett were infamous for all the wrong reasons, being quite frankly the worst pirates to ever sail East Blue. But still, the girl was popular and became somewhat of a mascot to her crewmates, who'd nicknamed her "Hachimaki" after the headband she always wore, and on the fateful day that their ship was sunk she was tossed into a lifeboat with some food they'd found on their latest expedition in order to save her. Not soon afterwards, she discovered that the crew's final adventure had uncovered a legitimate treasure, one of the rare Devil Fruits... Although she only realized this after she'd eaten it. With her newfound powers and the help of another crewmember she'd escaped with, Danica decided that she was going to go find One Piece herself and bring honour to her old crew!
• Abilities:
  • Bounce-Bounce Fruit: Danica has eaten the Bounce-Bounce Fruit (Pyon-Pyon no Mi?), a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that, rather like the Gum-Gum Fruit, gives the body of whoever eats it the properties of rubber. However, in this case the rubber in question is hard, firm and not particularly stretchy, but is instead rather bouncy. The most obvious usage of this fruit's power is performing incredibly high and long jumps, even from a standing position, and allowing the user to ricochet off walls, ceilings and floors to increase both height and momentum. In addition, due to being made of rubber the user is practically immune to blunt force and electrical attacks.
  • Brawling: Danica fights with her bare hands and feet, having learned how to fight in various scuffles whilst with her old crew. Her technique is unrefined, but she can still hold her own against untrained opponents, and using her Devil Fruit powers can potentially get the drop on more accomplished fighters if she actually thinks things through.
  • Cooking: Whilst she's admittedly not the greatest cook ever, Danica's skills in the kitchen are good enough to make the need for a dedicated cook be a low priority for the time being.
• Techniques: Due to having only very recently gained her powers, Danica doesn't have many techniques figured out as of yet. The only one she really has worked out at the moment is the Space Hopper, where she simply uses her bounciness to leap high into the air before bringing herself crashing down on an opponent.

@Rin
Oooh. I like her! She's good to me!
lol There's nothing wrong with the generic shonen protagonist; they get things moving :P

Okay. I finished my CS. What do you think?
Name: Lemmon (Lemmy) H. Jack
Alias: Howling fist
Age: 18
Appearance: Lemmon D. Jack is a muscular individual with wide shoulders. He stands 6'4, weighing 275 lbs. He has curly black hair that he keeps in a pony tail. His left eye is brown and his right eye is green. His traditionally attire consist of a dark blue shirt, black pants. He prefers going barefoot, but will put on sandals if the ground is hot.
Personality: Upon first meeting Jack, many would wrongfully believe him to be an extremely lazy individual whose too confident in his abilities to ever think the world would ever be able to cause him harm. Only have of this is true. It's not so much that Jacks' lazy. It's just that he can't see the point in worrying over so many things, especially since not a lot of things are within his power to change. On the other hand, Jack's a bit of an arrogant SOB and isn't afraid to prove just how much stronger he is than anyone else. He enjoys good fights, singing (despite not being able to carry a tune), long naps. He loves animals, they love him, and he can't stand to see any innocent creature come to harm. He can't stand hot weather, or spicy foods.
Background:Jack grew up with his parents on a busy island in the east blue. The family had a great deal of money which they made in the breeding and sale of dogs. Jack was never one to make a big deal about the financial aspects of his parents success, but he loved the animals, especially two worker dogs, who he personally adopted. Life went well long enough, but then his family made the mistake of saying the wrong things to the marines, regarding the refusal to sell any of their animals so they could be used in the service of the world government. It didn't take long before his home was in flames and everything he loved was dead. He would've died too if not for the intervention of his best friends, who died in their battle with a marine that wanted to kill him. The marine didn't survive either.
With nothing left, Jack grabbed an emergency pack his parents had told him about when they saw the marines making their way up to the house. He ate the fruit like his father told him too and hurried into town to join the first outbound crew. The crew members weren't a bad group, but they weren't particularly capable when it came to pirating. It didn't take long before the group were soundly defeated and Jack, along with his one remaining partner, found themselves in a lifeboat, sailing away from their sinking ship.

Abilities:
husky-husky no mi, a legendary zoan type devil fruit. This fruit allows the user to either fully transform into a large, mushing dog with thick white and black fur, or a partial transformation. Aside from the regular abilities a typical zoan type fruit would bestow, the husky-husky fruit grants its user a few additional bonuses:
Fur- A user of the husky-husky fruit is capable of controlling the amount of fur on their body produces, and can shed it at will.
Cold Immunity- A person using the husky-husky fruit's ability is unaffected by cold. In fact, cooler temperatures are not only harmless against the user, but low enough temperatures increase the user's endurance.
Note.-Although a user of the husky-husky fruit is immune to effects of cold, they are not immune to cold attacks. A spear of ice can pierce the user's hide as easily as anyone else's.
Note.-Higher temperatures have a similar effect to a user of a husky-husky fruit but in reverse; that is, using the fruit's power while it hotter temperatures causes the user to tire quicker.
Navigating- While on the sea, Lemmy can get from point A to point B.

Techniques:
Howling '1'-Lemmon plants his legs a bit over shoulder length a part, with his arms at his side. He sucks in air, and releases a very loud howl. The howl doesn't do damage, but its loud enough to cause pain and can incapacitate individuals with sensitive hearing.
Husky-Husky 'X'- Lemmon crosses his arms in front of his chest, claws pointed outwards, and slashes, causing an X shaped burst of sharp air to shoot forward, about a food in front of Lemmy.

bump..

@jynmi88Oh right um sorry. Things have been kind of busy lately and I keep losing track of what I'm supposed to be keeping track of. ^^;

Still think it really shouldn't be a legendary Zoan (since those are for creatures that are, um, legendary and don't exist outside of legends, mythology and folklore, like phoenixes and dragons and the like) but other than that he looks cool.

It's okay. Hopefully when we have our rp on its own thread that'll help with keeping track of this.

Mmmmm Yeah, I can see that, but that's where the Buddha fruit comes in. Buddhas actually do exist. They aren't mythical beings. Their just humans that fall under a specific quality which is the same the for a specific pure-breed of dog.

How about, since my character likes dogs we could just say he sees every dog as something legendary and considers his fruit a legendary zoan, even if he's the only one?

So are we ready to start?

Eh. I think my partner dropped out. A never mind would've been nice but oh well. So here we go with another bmp!

So, another bump.

Another bump and, yes

One last bump

Poke. Poke.

push... poke

Uhm... Here's a poke.

poke. poke. bump

Bump........ Bump...... Bump..... Bum-ba-dump.

Poke. Poke. Poke.

And here's another bump!
