@Prewiga Well, ideally both, but...

Like Luffy, she wants to find One Piece, but she has a goal in doing so beyond becoming Pirate King. This is important to her, so she does look for people who she feels have the strength/skill to make the journey.

This doesn't necessarily mean they're superhuman monsters like her, but they would at least be very clever and wily like Ussop.

By the way, @Rin@Zapdos can both put their profiles up now. Though, Zapdos should probably give him a name, first. :P

@BlackstripeI was just being weird and thinking that the captain should be the first in the list, but looks like someone's thrown a Spanner into that plan. >.> <.<

I actually thought the same, but @Blackstripe said that i should go ahead and post the character...
Now I kinda want to add a "First" above the sheet just for the lols. Kek.

Okay, now I pretty much just need to decide which between the three ( @Rin@Spanner@Zapdos ) of you I should kick things off with. Which would work best from a narrative perspective, etc.

@Blackstripe Maybe I didn't make it obvious enough in the CS, but my character didn't really jump into piracy. He helped a pirate because he felt he couldn't let them die, which kind of led him down that path by default because the government isn't exactly fond of people who help pirates. It's kind of like how Zoro became a pirate because Luffy saved him. I thought it'd make for a good backstory.

Also, I can tweak his backstory a bit if needed depending on when you want me to jump into the roleplay. I made the last part of it a little vague because I didn't know when he would be coming into the roleplay.

@Prewiga thanks for the idea, I'll consider it.

@ZapdosI'm actually thinking of having your character be the first one she happens upon in West Blue, as your character is probably the most "grounded" one here. If you give him a name, we can work on how this first arc will go via PM.

Yeah, going to agree that X the Nameless Medic is probably the best one to start with. Taimi is not exactly grounded enough to be the first recruit after all. XD

@Prewiga@Blackstripe Makes sense. Sounds good, how about I PM you when I come up with a name?

@Blackstripe



If he is to weak or to strong(not sure when it comes to this world) let me know. Also I already have a plan in mind as to why he'd join the pirate crew. It also makes sense.

@alexfangtalonHmmm, nice character overall, though a few things do confuse me.

How do they make ANY money if they can't hunt anyone who they don't witness committing a crime first-hand? They would kind of just have to be there, right? And then do they let the criminal go until they get a bounty for the crime they saw them commit? So many questions!

As for strength, your profile doesn't make it clear how exactly strong Eadgar is, but since he seems to be West Blue's answer to Zoro, I'm going to assume he's a bit above the level Zoro was at towards the beginning of the series? Given that West Blue is one of the stronger Blues.

If someone had a bounty on them or rumors were going around about someone committing a crime in the area they were in then one of the two would track down and follow the criminals until they had a reason to take them down. Even if someone doesn't have a bounty on their head they will take the person down and turn them in. The two aren't necessarily in it for the money.(They be dirt poor. They do accept any token of gratitude from locals for defeating the criminals which tends to be a meal.) I do apologize for not having everything simple. My train of thought is weird so I sometimes leave out important details while knowing them but not realizing everyone else might not.

Knowing this I guess so. I didn't want to make my character to strong(because I like room for improvement) but with the world of One Piece it is so confusing to me sometimes. When it comes to straight up physical strength I'd say that at the beginning of seeing Zoro the two are very similar. Sword skill I'd say Zoro is still better since his goal was to be the best swordsman. Eadgar's is to avenge his family. His father is by far a better swordsman than Eadgar and has yet to teach him everything he knows and *spoiler alert* won't get to.

She slammed her fist into the lead pirate's jaw, his face twisting and molding to her knuckles with the same ease as whipped cream beneath a spoon. The large man was instantly lifted off his feet, rocketing towards the assembly of pirates behind him like a blubbery cannon ball. Smashing through their ranks with nary a hint of resistance, he crashed through the back wall of the tavern.

Given how much Carl likes food, this seems really appropriate :-P

@alexfangtalonMy CS is actually done, I'm just waiting on a picture I commissioned on DeviantArt to be finished. >.<

Though, even when I post it, I'll be keeping her backstory under wraps for a while. It'll be revealed as the RP progresses through West Blue.

@Blackstripe Coolio. I'll start planning out the meeting with Eadgar more whilst I wait.
