[OOC] One Piece: On Stranger Tides

[Catchphrase]

@LostDestiny fair enough

[LostDestiny]

Well this is going to be interesting. :P

How long it take for Anna to warm up the Jack. Can Abby handle the shenanigans of her new crew. What awaits them in their adventures to come? Find out next time on One Piece: On Stranger Tide!

I have no clue why that turned into what it did but I am going to leave it. :P

Looking good so far, though Eddie would attest to the fact that going towards Shipwreck Isle is a bad idea, no matter how tempting it seems.

@Eklispe, when (both irl and in-game) do you want me to start posting? Presumably I need to start at when I meet Elliot, at the very least, in which case I think I ought to start after the crew has left Finhall, to avoid confusing threads of story too much.

[Eklispe]

If you want I could create the next location where the current group will be heading and you can loiter around there. I didn't do so already because I figured you wouldn't have much to post on.

Draco

Name: Draco 'Traitor' Winmore
Age: 21
Gender: Male

Appearance:

Draco

Personality: Draco is often pissed off, constantly annoyed at the Marines around him. He wishes to be alone but he honours his deal with the Marines. On the off chance you do hear Draco talk, it will often be short and straight to the point. He feels relaxed when at sea, his one true home.

Bio: Draco was born into the life of piracy, his father was a captain to a vicious crew and Draco was often found by his side, the young pirate captain. The crew, as evil as they were, would always protect Draco in battle. By the age of 4, Draco was being taught how to fight hand to hand and with a sword, the mighty crew teaching him skills he couldn’t have dreamed of knowing. On the day of Draco’s 10th birthday, the Captain, his Father, gave him a fruit, a devil fruit. The Moku Moku no Mi, or Smoke Smoke Fruit, Draco was given the ability of smoke, a Logia type. As he was to eat the fruit however, Marines attacked his ship, sneaking up from behind. A battle was started, a short battle, one that left Draco hurt and his family wiped. As he laid there, the sail burning bright and the mast cracking in half, he felt his life rise, saved by someone.

Draco awoke to a warm room, a small candle illuminating the room, as he looked around he noticed his Devil Fruit in a locked, clear glass display case. Draco’s feet hit the ground, softly tip toing across the room, close, closer, as his hand went for the glass, a short sharp knife was pushed against his neck. Draco soon learned that this man saved his life, a vice-admiral named Lucas Ryder. Draco tried to fight back, slightly freeing himself and charging at the man, his hand to hand fighting was quickly cancelled to the powerful opponent. When beaten, Draco broke out into tears, the realisation his father, his family was all about gone. Draco however was stopped when Lucas laid his hands on his shoulder, a safe and warm touch.

A deal was made between the two. Draco was to join the Marines and in 10 years, he may have the Devil Fruit. Draco reluctantly agreed. From this day on, his training was harsher, Lucas focused on his hand to hand and swordsmanship. The crew however, did not feel like family, they felt like enemies to him, the only person who felt like family was Lucas. The crew quickly labelled Draco as ‘Traitor’. This name had two meanings depending if you asked the Marines or the Pirates, Pirates would say because he betrayed his own flesh and blood, and the Marines would say because he is bound to betray the good willed people who took the troubled kid in.

5 months before Draco’s 20th birthday, on a simple recon search, their ship was ambushed by a small fleet of pirates, 3 ships in total. As the opening sound of cannons echoed throughout the sky, the Marine ship took a beating, however was ready for such a fight. The two smaller pirate ships came on both sides of the marine ship, opening fire and trying to board. Draco was atop of the crow’s nest, waiting until it was closer. When both ships were in reach, Draco jumped high into the air, plummeting towards the deck of the ship on the starboard side, his sword drawn, he landed on pirate, his sword through the man’s back. Many pirates came to fight Draco and many pirates fell, his sword dripped of blood as he dashed downwards, entering the armoury and slicing through many more pirates until he got to what he wanted, the gun powder. He moved the powder to the opposite side, away from the Marine ship and set a fuse, it was a short time but enough time for him to swing back over to his ship, the pirate ship exploding, sinking into the depths below. Draco looked for Lucas, his narrowing on Lucas on the other enemy ship fighting the Pirate captain. Draco began to move when he witnessed the sword pierce through Lucas’s stomach. Enraged Draco dashed and jumped across, his sword swinging at the Captain, blocked, swing and repeat. The Captain disarmed Draco, his sword pressed against Draco’s chest, he laughed at Draco. He saw Lucas just one more time, laying across the deck with his life seeping away. Draco grabbed the blade, his hand being sliced open and pulled, dragged by the sword the Captain stumbled towards Draco. Draco’s hand come in hard and fast, his palm connecting with the Captains nose, breaking it upon contact, he followed up with a quick knockout punch. With the Captain taken care of, Draco rushed to Lucas’s aid, but it was clearly too late. As his life faded away, Lucas’s told Draco that now, was the time for him to have his fruit. The third Pirate ship was long gone, and signalled the end of the fight.

Upon return to the Marine base, the Captain was tried and sentenced to death, and Draco was debriefed. Many speculated that Draco had killed Lucas, but to his surprise, the crew quickly jumped to Draco’s aid, backing his statement and even recommending a promotion to Commodore.

A year after Lucas’s death, Draco was training everyday with his new found abilities, and honing his already established skills. He awaits command at Base, but has been told to get ready for his new mission.

Skills: TBA
Role in Crew: Waiting for GM to say if Draco can be Vice Admiral

@Eklispe Hey there! Since the GM of another RP I played in dropped, I have 1 RP time slot available now, saw this, and thought "what the hell?" I love One Piece. A lot. Anyway, I haven't read through all 9 pages of OOC, but I recall it saying there would be 1 crew unless interest got up high enough, so I was wondering if there are any slots of said crew open, or if more options have been made available. The character I usually use for OP is normally a captain, but I can work anything really.

[hozan]

If you want I could create the next location where the current group will be heading and you can loiter around there. I didn't do so already because I figured you wouldn't have much to post on.

@Eklispe

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too. I'll just watch and wait.

[blumenk]

Hi, first sorry for not appearing nor posting for a few days, second could Elliot first post be on the shipwreck island? maybe exploring his surroundings and opening the chest that contains his and Hozan´s devil fruits.

@ProPro

We have a pirate and marine captain at the moment, though it would be amusing to have to upsurper captain of sorts. As it our roles are

Peps

Pirate Doctor
Pirate Sniper
Pirate navigator
Pirate Captain
Pirate Chef/Swordsman
Pirate Engineer

Marine 2nd in command
Marine Captin

I was considering filling out some of the roles of the marine crew myself, still not sure what I'll do with that.

@Hippo AF I'd rather not have him start as a vice-admiral given the power level of them in general is higher than that starting point I'd like.

[Eklispe]

@blumenk As for this sure, just PM me to make sure its all good. The plan was for you two to be on the hazardous island everyone else ends up on due to the marine attack

[Hippo AF]

@Eklispe So what's the highest Marine Rank my char could be ?

[Eklispe]

Hm, I would think Commodore

[Eklispe]

@Ryteb Pymeroce@Catchphrase@jynmi88

The crew seems to be set for the moment. If captain atm would like to make a post saying you're setting out to sea I can move you guys along.

[jynmi88]

@Eklispe
Sorry that was so short. I wanted to get it up before heading off to work. If I need to add more I'll fix it whne I get back, which won't be for while though :(

[Eklispe]

Works for me, you got the intent through. I'll get up a gm post for you folks today then.

[Ryteb Pymeroce]

Marines, Treacherous Waters, and an Oncoming Storm. How will out brave crew survive this encounter? Find out next time on One Piece: On Stranger Tides.

Sorry, Not Sorry. :P

[LostDestiny]

@Ryteb Pymeroce Yes! Do not apologize about that, its super fun.

[Catchphrase]

In my opinion I think cowardice would be the best decision

[LostDestiny]

So when so we want to post for our Marine crew?

[Ryteb Pymeroce]

@Catchphrase If you want to flee, we'll happily through you overboard.
