Fell Shiner [+]

Name: Fell Shiner

Alias: Shiner

Age: 17

Position: Shipwright

Bounty: 0

Appearance:



Personality:

• Shiner is a very polite person. He is also good at following orders, being used to it since he's always been in a subordinate position among crews.
• Shiner’s biggest weakness is his simple mindedness. He's bad at creating complex plans and strategies. He acts a lot more with his heart then with his head and to him an issue is either black or white, so when he gets into grey situations he has trouble knowing what to do. This often frustrates him and makes him have a harder time thinking straight.

Background:

• For as long as Fell could remember he has lived on a boat. Working for a pirate crew at a young age he was forced to work with the threat of not being feed, the captain often saying, “If I can't see my reflection in the floor then you don't get food!!!”. Because of this he got the nickname “Shiner” which he eventually made into his last name since he wasn't given one. After living almost all of his life cleaning ships he began to slowly learn more and more about ships, eventually learning all the parts of a ship and their functions. He even grows a great respect for ships, seeing as a ship is the only thing between him and the deadly ocean.
• Later in his life, the pirate crew he worked for boarded an old and poorly maintained ship. When Shiner notices damage in the hull he tries to tell the crew that the ship will sink only for the crew to laugh at him saying he's nothing but a deckhand, and even the captain replies, “Are you an idiot boy? If we don't get this treasure now then someone else will!!! Besides, a ship is just a lug of wood that gets us from A to B.”.
• Feeling angered by his captain and crews recklessness and disrespect for both him and the ship, he packs his things and takes a rowboat away, seeing the ship try to chase after him only for it to start sinking.
  Now, he goes from port to port working odd jobs and being hired as a temporary deck hand for various ships, looking for adventure and a permanent crew he can feel a part of.

Abilities:

• Shipwright - Shiner has the ability to repair almost any ship.
• Fast Learner - Shiner has always had a knack for learning things fast, from learning carpentry to learning how to sail.
• Physical Strength - After a whole life of hard labor he has developed an above average strength, being much stronger that the average person.
• Great Reflexes - Shiner is very quick to react to things, and that transfers to fighting. His reflexes are great enough to dodge bullets, if only barely.
• Large amount of Haki - Shiner, despite not knowing, has always had a large amount of haki and has unconsciously been using it to protect himself on a lot of occasions.

Weapons:

• Leather Gloves - These are the gloves he wears whenever he is about to do any sort of physical activity from fighting to ship repairs. The gloves have a metal plate on the back of them which he can use for blocking blades and bullets.
• Metal Shin Guards - Metal plates strapped to Shiners legs by leather straps that are hidden under his pants.

Techniques:

• Improvised Shiner Style - There is no formal training in this style and is actually fairly weak with many openings. It's really just a fighting style that heavily relies on Shiners above average strength and reflexes. The attacks focus on using all four limbs to attack.
  
  
  
  • Shine Fist - Although he doesn’t know how it works, Shiner unconsciously concentrates Haki into his fist and releases all of it forward when he punches.The concentrated Haki is so bright that it can blind some people.
• (More created as the story progresses.)

Note: I totally forgot if Haki can be used like this. If it can't i plan to change him into a swordsman.

Janet [+]

Name: Janet
Alias: Red Bomber
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Position: Sniper
Bounty: 3.9 million
Appearance:
Personality:
Janet is a confident girl who values her honor & pride. She is often blunt & honest, often saying things in a straightforward or even vulgar manner. She is rash and would attack Marines at any slightest provocation. She's open-minded, and generally a nice girl to talk with. She's a bad smoker due to her cigarettes exploding uncontrollably from her abilities. Also, she's a horrible cook, but she is kind of a food critic and a picky eater. Just like a typical person in East Blue, she was still unaware of devil fruits, the only thing she knows about her abilities is that she can explode instinctively.

Devil Fruit(if any): Bomu Bomu no mi (Bomb Bomb Fruit) - A Paramecia Devil Fruit that gives explosive properties to any part of her body, whether it be hair, mucus, or breath. Janet is still rather imprecise on controlling the size of her explosions.
Weapons:
Javelin - Janet is good in throwing javelins with dead accuracy from a far range, she could also use it as a melee weapon to hold her own at short-range combat.

Techniques:
Exploding Javelin - Janet's Javelins which are strung with her hair can explode upon impact

Cannons - Janet can fire ship cannons at longer range and firepower due to her abilities, but, the cannon that she is using will be destroyed mostly due to too much firepower.

Background: Janet was born from a wealthy family of Shell Town, living without worry until she was about 6 years old, but at that point things took a turn to the worse. She was fed a devil fruit by her parents (which they obtained through connections) and had accidentally killed them at the moment her explosive abilities activated. Left alone and abandoned, Janet lived the rest of her life in the back alley, rising up as a leader of a street gang due to her abilities & power. Not many dares to approach her turf without caution due to her "unexplained" exploding spears. Unfortunately for her, the Marines have taken her more seriously and eliminated her gang. Being the sole survivor, Janet turned to the high seas, starting afresh as a pirate with a rowboat. She gained a small bounty for attacking Marine Officers.

@Crimson Lion - Same for Janet, she thought she was the only person in the world who have abilities ^^"

As for ideas, I only have those for Grand Line arcs, which I doubt it would be much since its kind of vague & far ahead :X . Basically its about an island where a King died, and there is a succession struggle amongst the Princes. The rightful heir fled from his brother who illegally seized power and tried to kill him, and the crew would stumble upon that ship and help to reclaim the throne ~ In the meantime, one of the Shichibukai might be involved ~~

Hmmmm, @jynmi88, would it be ok to make Rainer the unofficial Helmsman of the group.

I had this idea of Rainer having a rival not in combat but in sailing. Like, some Marine Helmsman that is always chasing the crew and Rainer out sailing him.

Sure, I don't have a problem with that :)

So it would be a marine obsessed with catching your character, similar to Garp and Gol d roger's relationship?

<Snipped quote by jynmi88>

Yeah like, a marine that is obsessed because he's never let a criminal go and the crew escapes after he messes up.

Sure, we could have something like that. Maybe, he'll start off as a minor character, but work his way up the enemy ladder as he fails more and more in catching Shiner?
