One Piece: The Modern Age of Piracy (OPEN)

[FiroIV]

_{art by Noah Bradley}

Premise:

<sub>It has been more than a century since the first Pirate King died, the man who ushered the first Golden Age of Piracy, and decades since the second Pirate King disappeared after ending the Great Void War and beginning the Industrial Age of Piracy. Years have passed since the third Pirate King, the beautiful and once immortal "Bloody Rebecca" who lived to a 100 was executed. She who brought about The 10 Year Pirate War who's story's mere mentioning of or pursuit of study will demand persecution by the World Government. She who caused White Monday, the darkest day in World History who caused millions of people to leave their islands, even sky and underwater, away from the Grand Line to avoid the destruction. She who's own crew left her, who surrendered herself, and was executed by the World Government. She who's passing ushered in the Modern Age of Piracy.

The story will follow a new crew of pirates lead by someone who only wants the best and brightest for their crew for revenge. This new pirate captain has no desires to be the pirate king, what they want is to kill those who have wronged the history of the world. What they want is revenge, to fight for the people who cannot fight for themselves. What they want is to right the wrongs that are in place, who's existence has caused nothing but suffering. To begin their journey of conquest, revenge, and adventure they will begin by finding people who they see will help them achieve those goals.</sub>

Overview:

Welcome to Eternal Pose, a One Piece RP which i plan on being a long running story, with a planned and clear definitive arcs, haf points, and an end. For fans of the series this will take place decades after the canon, and expect that there are certain things to be changed once i reveal them/make the OOC with the needed information. For people who are only marginally familiar or new to the story of One Piece welcome as well, you will find that there may be certain terms that you are unfamiliar with, but expect that I plan on explaining them well enough, especially the new terms. There will be enough for both those familiar with the story and those who are not that I hope I can gather your interest. At the moment all that's needed is that it is a world of adventuring.

The story, and specifically the first arc will begin in the Grand Line, the pirate City Twin Capes is located at the beginning of the Grand Line (for information about the city, which is important look at the settings). By this point in the story a small crew has already been made with relative infamy. The general plan for this arc is that it will be a trial run for both the story, the way the RP will run, and for the players. The captain has already recruited a fair bit of people using his own resources be it money or a promise of something for the future. It will begin with the crew crash-landing in the Twin Capes destroying their ship. The crew now needs to make money, get supplies, recruit some new members, and get a new ship, all of which by any means necessary. You will be in charge of how your character will move and find their own way in the plot. I will provide a plot skeleton of sorts that will be filled in by playing with a clear start, moderately guided middle, and a vague ending along the lines of "they survive and achieve or fail their goal", but how it will get there is decided in character.

Players can apply to be part of the crew already or be someone new or both even though all of us will be starting the main story just now. I made it this way so that having a character who is a fishman/mink/sky islander/hybrids etc., is not unheard of or completely off base. That being said there wont be anyone who is too powerful since everyone is still fairly new to the piracy game. There will be certain characters are needed such at the moment for balance and story reasons, and I will be providing a short list of vague character descriptions that you are make your own for an added story bonus. Please see this list at the Character Creation section.

Much in liue of the original this will be an adventure story, filled with island hopping fun, exciting and quirky combat, treasure hunting, and an overall arc about one crew's journey that will entangle itself in an overall arc about getting revenge and getting even. It will be about finding and making your dreams come true, and most importantly fighting for the people that cannot fight for themselves. It will be relatively multigenre and will explore different themes per arc. For the current arc it will be about "What it means to be a pirate, and starting or continuing a journey.

Expectations and Plans For The Future:

There is going to be an overall arc and lore mentioned that will be explored, but there will be also be a hefty bit of character arc. It will come in two flavors. One aspect of it will be their own internal arc which will be about their personal character growth, encompassing their personality and combat ability. The other aspect is about pursuing their external arc on top of their adventuring desires, which can be as simple as finding or fulfilling a dream, doing a job, going back to their home, finding someone or something, or revenge just like the captain. Both must be planned in advance and considered when making your characters. You are in charge of how your characters' story will progress in character, and how it ends which may or may not happen at the end of the story and if it does then great, but if not at least there's a nicer exit for the player character than being turned into a void NPC or death.

I plan on separating arcs with a much shorter breather arc all about character interaction and exploring the world of One Piece. They will be interaction heavy and have no designated plot, just about character exploration that will take place in the ship. This is all about improving relationships with other player characters, a way for them to set up or resolve personal interaction and conflict, and the time to set up romance. Naturally due to the nature of group RP you are encouraged to make a collab especially when character interactions are about or when we are in a breather episode.

I enjoy playing multiple characters and expect that you will or should be able to as well when needed, at least to a decent enough degree to play NPC's or arc specific playable characters. I plan separating the RP story per arc and saga, opening and closing applications as needed this will allow new people to join, or present players to make a new crew member or and temporary player character to be a main part of the current arc. This will also serve as a trial run for people who wish to apply in the middle of the story proper. It will also allow players to be the main villain if they wish to play a villain.

Expect that if you are part of the game you will be expected to shape the world and make plots with the group, and not just be a player. I only have a handful of stories already made and part of the lore built, which can be changed and added onto depending on how the story goes. You will be expected to make places of interest and NPC's as needed. I'd greatly appreciate and enjoy it if you participate in this aspect as I don't want this to just be my story, but a group effort. As GM i will make most of the needed things, but overall plots will be decided upon by the action of the players.

Setting:

Settings Sheet

Grand Line

For people who are familiar with the story expect that main elements of the world of One Piece remains but it takes place in the future. Knowledge and travel of Sky Islands and newly dubbed Underwater Islands exists. Devil Fruits, both true and created, are common knowledge and can be found in the black market; and durgs which alter their effects are in circulation. Wapometal items, aka transforming weapons/ships are commonly seen. Airhsips and Submarines are not unheard of, but only the powerful and rich have access to them. The various land, sea, and sky races are commonly seen. Slavery is still quite common so long as it is not found since it's practice is not tolerated by both peaceful pirates, marines, and public so. Maps of the Grand Line are in circulation thanks to a certain Navigator, but are quite expensive. And Haki, who only the knowledgeable and the select few in high seats of power once knew of, is something that anyone in the world of pirates hear about, but who's practice is still limited to the elite.

For those who are curious and may be interested especially if it will relate to their character's origin please note the following. North, East, West, and South Blue Seas remain the same as canon. Sandy Island, home of Alabasta, remains a seat of power and functions culturally the same as before. Water 7 is one of the few known traversing island that can safely traverse the Grand Line. The Sabaody Archipelago is a free city governed by Marines, many pirates meet their end here. Fishman Island has since relocated to the surface of the New World and is now the first island in the New World. Many Marine Bases have since been renamed to mobile islands that roam the Grand Line. Zou, home of the minks is no longer traversing Paradise, many still remain, but they no longer live an isolationist existence. Sky Islands and travel have been made easy thanks to airships, and routes being made public. Calm Belt islands are also commonly traversed after the science of seastone ships was made public.

Twin Capes _{(Image above is insp. for Twin Capes)}

The starting point for many pirates, a lawless pirate infested city with it's own rules. It was once just a pair of lighthouses marking the entrance to the Grand Line situated at the Red Line continent, but in the passing decades pirates from all over the world have decided to build their own city. Pirates from the Blue Seas all over the world travel here to begin their journey, and even those from the Grand Line travel back here to honor pirate tradition. It's citizens are a combination of new pirates looking for a ship home, citizens looking to get back to the grand line, or retired pirates who's experience on the high seas are long over and have started families. There are few who call it home since most end up leaving on a journey.

There is no official governing body in the city, but there is a combined unofficial jurisdiction by the marines and the pirates. The marines refuse to increase their presence outside of one base that exists simply to inform other marine bases of a new pirate ship. The three Pirate Emperors have a joint official decree and have a representative to stop any one pirate to rule or pillage the city. In the city itself there local pirate leaders who have "territories" of sorts who take in new pirates. Some powerful pirates also use the city as a hunting ground for new recruits. Many of the "laws" are only honored to avoid large conflicts. Residents protect their own kind, and while they will tolerate any kind fight, anything that goes beyond a scuffle is immediately put to an by other pirates who like to keep the peace. Due to the nature of the city it has one of the largest known black markets in the world that deals in everything but slavery, news of any slavery is immediately put down by many residents who abhor the practice.

Characters Rules & Sheet:

Rules and Expectations

Click for Rules and Expectations

• This is a fairly hefty looking sheet. You are to fill it out to the best of your degree, i'm not looking for a long sheet so long as you can explain and present the info im asking for.
• This is a not first come first serve basis, so you cannot reserve any character. In the event that there are doubles in crew occupation/species/power then expect that changed may occur.
• PM me any and all character sheets. In it indicate if you want them to be already part of the crew or if you want them to join them at the island.
• I am limiting this at the moment to eight (10) player characters. So it can mean a maximum of 10 players including me, or five (5) players all doubling not including me. At the moment no more than two per player as to not overcrowd the number of players.
• I will most likely be playing the captain just because it'll be easier for me to control the narrative in that position.
• I do allow playing doubles, and encourage it. If you chose to make two characters they cannot both be in the crew already or join the island together, unless they act as one unit aka twins, siblings, family members, or a romantic couple.
• If you look after the sheet there will be a list of characters that i currently need, these will mostly be character's who's occupations are required in the crew.
• Romance can be a part of the story, but not necessary for everyone. I will accept someone who's main motivation is to find their one true love in the high seas or to maybe stay
• I'm allowing all species within canon, but must be explained as to why they are where they are in the story. The exception are giants, but can be waved if they are either small giants that are 8 to 10 feet tall, or have some way of shrinking.
• I will conditionally allow all Devil Fruits and types already in One Piece lore, for Logia see the next point, except for the one's being used the main crew in One Piece canon to avoid a repeats. I implore you to find a a Devil Fruit already being used in the canon and non-canon material and give it to the hands of someone who is a rookie. For New Devil fruits they must be properly explained, and expect that i may not allow them due to the nature of their powers.
• Devil Fruit users can only be human, but this can be discussed. The other races tend to have racial benefits/power and i feel that they are quite OP if they have Devil Fruits and inherent abilities. Not to say that you are not 100% allowed to but you must be able to defend your character, and prove to me why and how your character has this Devil Fruit.
• For those who wish to have a Logia devil fruit due to the nature of the story/where we are at the moment I will only entertain one (1) character having it if they eat it later on in the story once we are in the appropriate story part. That said character you don't have to plan it now, since I can easily just "gift" it to someone in an appropriate arc.
• With regards to the four items above this I will set a limit as to how many are allowed, as such I'd like to have a balance of male, female, they characters, a balance of Devil fruit users and non-devil fruit users, and a nice even mix of different species.
• Haki is not allowed, but will be a part later on. Characters can know of it's existence and you can plan to have them develop it.
• You are free to make characters that are only part of the crew because of a promise of pay or a contract of sorts, but the general expectation plot wise is that they will stay indefinitely until said promise or contract is fulfilled.
• As the nature of how things go I expect, but hope that it doesn't happen, that some will leave in the future. In the event that it does happen your character will be left up in the air to become an NPC or another player character's own.

Needed or Interesting Characters

Needed characters must be filled out for the story to begin.
Interesting characters are just story aspects that i'd like to see, but not needed to be accepted. They're just interesting ideas I'd like to see.
Interesting character aspects can be combines as long as it's not too much.

My Hider

• Needed/Already a crew member - Chef (Specialty is yours to determine)
• Needed/Already a crew member - Shipwright
• Needed/Already a crew member - Medical (Doctor/Nurse/Etc. they can have a specialty ex. surgery/alternative medicine)
• Needed/Already a crew member - Navigator
• Interesting/can already be crew or just joining - Entertainer
• Interesting - A person who can fight already using their body, but will later consume a Devil Fruit to be stronger
• Interesting - A person who cannot fight well but is resourceful, but will later consume a Logia Devil Fruit when given the chance
• Interesting - A Merchant type person who deals with money/day to day matters of the crew
• Interesting - A Treasure Hunter who is looking for specific treasure
• Interesting - A Sky islander who wants to go home (bonus fun if they have fairy wings)
• Interesting - A Royal of some kind who left home
• Interesting - A romantically involved couple
• Interesting - A female (hybrid) fishwoman or a male merperson
• Interesting - Someone with marine ties who left them for a reason
• Interesting - Someone who fights using wapometal weapons, aka weapons that transform shape (cannot be guns or swords)
• Interesting - Someone who is hunting a specific pirate or treasure
• Interesting - Someone who is running away from a specific pursuer outside of the marines
• Interesting - Someone from the Kuja clan who was banished/exiled/ran away
• Interesting - Someone who fights with some kind of ranged weapon bows and arrows, guns etc.
• Interesting - A Zoan Devil Fruit user

So business mode off. Now that this is here if it gets interest at all and i get some PM's done I'll make an OOC.

EDIT1 There are and will be exceptions to the rules when it come to character creation. Feel free to ask me if youre thinking about making someone who may or may not be allowed. If you dont ask you will never know.

EDIT2 To specify the hybrid limitation the only species that im not conditionally approving to eat devil fruits are the fishmen, merfolks, minks, giants (unless theyre the smaller variety) and longlimb people since they have built in extra abilities and ive always seen devil fruits and other extra ordinary abilities as a balance to that system. Naturally we cam discuss a way around this to find a nice compromise.

EDIT3 A bit more on the tech. Weapons or devices that have been imbued with dial technology and wapometal is common use. Seeing people with cybernetic enhancements or power armor (granted nothing too sleek or advanced) isn't all that rare either. I will also entertain things and weapons imbued with devil fruits, but this one has to be discussed. Things like personal vehicles such as high powered sailboard or skateboards, but no hoverboards, are also fair game.

EDIT4 I didn't mention it prior, but the main crew will be coming from the South Blue. It's the one that had the least exposure in canon so I figured why not.

EDIT5 I don't know if this has to be said but there will be no one with a "D" initial in their name. Y'all should know what i'm talking about. Not to say that i want to limit creativity, but even I don't know what that initial means, and there's a history of characters being made with it in RP's and Fan stories and I'm not gonna deal with it for now.

EDIT6 There was a typing error in the character sheet, damn you BBCodes. They are very minor issues located in the relationships and meta information parts.

EDIT7 There is currently someone already using a Mythological DF for balancing issues all Zoan DF's will be regular. A doctor and blacksmith position has been made, as doubles are allowed, but they must be different enough from the other doctor on crew.

[Ornatur]

As previously mentioned, I'm interested, but man it's going to take a bit to get that heft CS done :P

[FiroIV]

You can send them my way as a work in progress and i can work with you on them and help in any way.
Also in terms of length I'm not looking for anything too long. I find them taxing to read too sometimes. As long as it answers the wuestion it's fine.

[Jiatsu Hoshido]

So can I join this? I'm so interested in how this'll go down and I even have a character in mind~ (I wasn't too clear on how this would go down, so I'm simply asking a second time.)

[FiroIV]

Yes you can certain apply.
Can i ask what was not clear?
Also i take it that youre talking about when you first mentioned in the other thread? If so i just want to make sure.

[Jiatsu Hoshido]

You're sheet is a wee bit complicated for someone who doesn't know BBcode at all to figure out. And I'm kinda worried I'm doing it wrong. ^.^'

Edit: Randomly fella how many years EXACTLY is this after the original story?

[FiroIV]

Theres no exact date but lets just its been around 70 years since the end of Luffy's journey. A lot has happened since then. Based on the age linit the characters should be more or less people who were born or grew up jist a wee bit after the 3rd pirate king was executed. Theyd be old enough to know that there was a pirate war and that somethibg really bad happened, but you enough to have actually avoided it.

Ill explain more in detail in the ooc but it shouldn't be something that will hinder your characater creation.

I can hell you with the bbcode if you need it. Once you have somethibg relativelu filled it i can guide you.

@FiroIV

Well I was simply asking because...well when you see the CS you'll see. (I didn't mention any names so...hopefully it's chill?) Also I think I'm figuring out the bbcode. Sorry for bothering you~

[Demous]

Whee I'm here! Hmm... That sheet will take a while.

I'm assuming this is going to be a slower RP right?

[Demous]

Hmm... thinkign either the chef or someone running from a non marine person

[FiroIV]

@Jiatsu HoshidoNot at all, id be glad to help! Let me know how things go.

@DemousIt will move depending on the pace of the people. You can also do both, combine the interesting aspect with the character needed.

I have it set up that it really just depends on how quickly the characters get to certain points in the game. Also I, as GM will post something every now and again to move things along and move certain NPC's as needed to get stuff done.

For example in this first arc it will the beginning will definitely be the new ship crash landing, the goals will be to find a ship, restock, make some money, and get a map/log pose. Those goals can be achieved a number of ways and can be done in any order. I'll also provide enough points of interest and NPC's that characters can go to and interact with that no one will have to wait on each other, and from there on it is the job of each player to navigate the interactions needed. If let's say you are meeting someone new please feel free to do a short collaboration post to get something done quickly.

NOTICE!
I will keep the Interest Check active here for about a week until I make an OOC to garner more interest and give people enough time to build Character Sheets.

@Rhodus@jynmi88@Zapdos I'm tagging you three since I remembered you guys having interest after I posted my ideas for the One Piece RP.

[Prewiga]

Definitely interested.

I'll do some reading and brainstorming to see if I can fit any of those interesting characters listed in the OP.

[FiroIV]

@PrewigaGlad to have your interest, but please don't force yourself to make a character that has those interesting aspects if you don't want to. I don't want to limit your creative energy, but rather inspire or help you start.

The only characters i "Need" to begin are the first four.

[Prewiga]

@FiroIV Oh, I think I mistook interesting for needed. Glad to you cleared that up. I might go with a doctor, just need to conceptualize the actual character. Once I come up with something, I'll be sure to get back to you.

[FallenTrinity]

What is the tech change like if it is in the future? Any advancements? Gun tech? Transportation tech? Stuff like that? Also... interested :3

Oh and I saw the "no reservations" for characters so ignore the advanced rp check comment on that >.<

[FiroIV]

@FallenTrinityI hinted a bit into where the story is in the setting section, but to be more precise one of the biggest changes would be dial based weapons and wapometal tech, which are both canon to the story. I'm leaving it up to y'all to really decide what you want to do with the tech.

Something like a personalized vehicle that can be land or seafaring is fairly common, like a powerful speedboat or sailboard. I've also mentioned that airships and submarines are not that rare, but kind of exclusive. Transforming ships are fine too so having a character who uses some kind of "transforming" armor isn't Feel free to make use of the "transforming weapons" aspect i mentioned above, it won't be anything severe, but for fans of the RWBY series, having a weapon have multiple functions, someone suddenly whipping out a giant hammer, or turning small metal orbs into spears, is something that i will allow and wholly entertain. I will also be fairly flexible in allowing weapons with elemental add ons or some fairly unique aspects by way of using Dial tech or maybe they have a weapon that was infused with a devil fruit (more on this later), granted there will be limitations, but i'm open enough to the idea.

Hi! I'm interested in joining, seeing as the other One Piece RP didn't kick off.

[FiroIV]

Glad to have you on board!

Just to clarify btw for devil fruit users to avoid any translation issues I'd like for y'all to just use the "X Fruit" and the "X Human" format aka Luffy ate the "Rubber Fruit" and is a "Rubber Man".

I'm considering being a devil fruit user. Um... any restrictions that you'd like? Like no Logia types or something?

@Pirouette

For those who wish to have a Logia devil fruit due to the nature of the story/where we are at the moment I will only entertain one (1) character having it if they eat it later on in the story once we are in the appropriate story part. That said character you don't have to plan it now, since I can easily just "gift" it to someone in an appropriate arc.
