[OOC] One Piece: The Scarlet Pirates (Reboot!) [Chapter 1 END]

[vancexentan]

Well chicken I just kind of figured most people wouldn't care, or just hate Adam. There's not much scooting around that he's either a fake, or an asshole.

[Jerkchicken]

Yeah well that goes without saying since you made him that way. Still leaves the other characters for something if the others want to do something.

Willow

Name: "Will-o-the-Wisp" Willow

Age: 22

Bounty: 2.2 million

Gender: Female

Appearance:

Personality: Willow is nice to people she knows and likes, and acts polite to those she doesn't know when talking face to face. However she has a mischievous side and will occasionally pull pranks on people, more so people she doesn't know than her friends. Anyone she deems an enemy she doesn't play around with, and will derive great glee from dismembering them with her weapons as she ends the fight as fast as possible. She has no mercy for those who abuse their power to hurt others unjustly.

Backstory: Willow came from an island in the south blue. While she does not talk much about her pre pirate life, she will say why she became a pirate in the first place. Her main reason she'll say, is just to see how big and vast the world is. After all, there would have to be some wonderful things to see like mermaids, fishmen, and all sorts of weird things she heard about from travelers in her home village. Well that was before it was more or less destroyed by a visiting celestial dragon.

Both the reverence her village had for the dragon, and the lack of respect in kind the dragon showed, especially with them casually murdering people and being honored for it was just wrong. Seeing that careless regard for innocent life, Willow stole the reason the celestial dragon came to that town and fled, seeing her town as a lost cause considering all the damage the dragon had done before (Due to preparations and 'cleansing the town of that which wasn't deemed pristine") and after arriving.

After going on her own, she learned very quickly those that abused power were often very weak themselves, and very few people had the spine to oppose and dispose of them. Willow wasn't one of those people. And thanks to her speed and small size, it was borderline impossible for people to see her do her deed most of the time. She was only caught on camera once, and that moment was shown on her wanted poster. Although the poor cameraman didn't get a super good shot, what with the fairy light and all she had used prior. Hence her pirate name.

Abilities:
Shortsword Master: Willow is proficient in using shortswords and rapiers. Willows primary weapon of choice is a very thin and extremely sharp scalpel razor sword that is extremely efficient at cutting through flesh. Its about the size of a large dagger. Her secondary weapon is a large spike or rapier like weapon thats the same size as her razor sword.

Pressure Point Adept: While not a master, Willow is fairly competent at knowing where pressure points are and hitting them. Although she doesn't use this too often since slicing is more fun.

Adequate Smith: Willow knows enough about making weapons to make a new scalpel sword or rapier if hers breaks.

Devilfruit: Fairy Fairy

The Fairy Fairy fruit turned Willow into a fairy. Being a fairy, Willow is very small, about the size of a cup. However even at this size, Willow still has her normal durability and strength and can fly carrying things far beyond her current weight.

Enhanced Speed: Willow's size means she moves much faster than normal.

Advanced Flight: Willow is able to fly thanks to their fairy wings, and can dart around at will and freely change direction or even fly backwards. Willow can fly faster than they can run. Additionally Willow doesn't get tired from flight and can fly for very long periods of time.

Fairy Magic: Willow can use various types of fairy magic on themselves or others.

Healing: Willow can heal others or herself with a touch.

Fairy Fire: Willow can summon a ball of light that they can freely control. This light is very bright, and pierces illusions and fog.

Relationships: NA For now

Dreams: Explore the world, maybe kill a few celestial dragons.

WIP


Name:Beat (The Golden Child) Tsukuru

Age: 17

Bounty:

Gender: Female

Appearance: Beat stands 5'1 and weighs 109 lbs. Her hair is mid length, purple and nearly always in a state of chaos. Her eyes are silver colored, when she's not wearing color contacts to hide them. She prefers lab-coats and black pants.

Personality: Outwardly Beet is endlessly optimistic to the point where she never takes things as an actual threat against her. In her mind everything that stands before her is just another stone to step over, puzzle to solve, or enemy to crush or friend who has yet to realize what exactly is going on. There's never a dull moment, except for the boring ones, and when those come up they won't stay dull for very long. She's incapable of sitting still for more than a moment. She's head over heels in love with animals, especially her own, and has an affinity, obsession, for science, machinery in general.

She maintains a firm stance on science as well as the ways it should be used, regardless of what's going on, but many times her ability to think logically over powers her empathic perceptions, leaving her often confused as to the state of emotional being of others.

Inwardly, Beets is a different person. She is constantly worrying about the state of the world and how she may effect it some day. Due to her hard life and the time she spent in the research facilities she knows just how cruel the world can be and seeks to ease that darkness however she can, which she is certain she can accomplish either through her mechanical brilliance or simply making sure the world government never manages to get its hands on her again.

Backstory: Beet grew up an orphan in a tiny village. At first life was hard, with only her adoptive mother and two wolfe-dogs for company but eventually she developed a skill with machinery, building her first robot by the age of four. The skill quickly spread and before long the village began to prosper with robotic workers. Their wealth grew so renown the world government took an interest in her. Before the age of seven she, and her canine companions were on a marine ship heading for a secret research base beneath the city of celestial dragons.

The next nine years went by in a flash. Beet found herself enthralled in the technological wonders which were afforded to her at the research facility and was quick to pick up on even the most complicated of scientific theory. Before long, she was no longer in classes learning, but standing shoulder to shoulder with the greatest minds, helping to conceive the next revolutionary gizmo or gadget.

Life couldn't have been better, and she would've died a happy woman if her natural curiosity didn't get the best of her. Upon the development of what she, and many of those around her, believed would be the crowning achievement of technological potential, the chaos garden, things changed. Instead of sitting back and allowing for testing to on without her, as was the typical practice Beet slipped on board the marine ship which was headed to test what she would later learn was a weapon's system.

The horrors which transpired on the island, horrors which had been made a reality because of her two hands was more than she could bare. After the initial testing, before the beta phase, she she tampered with the system, an act which saw to it that everyone involved in the creation was killed, before fleeing with her two wolf dogs.

Sadly, the escape wasn't as flawless as she believed, and her companions nearly perished, protecting her. Luckily, she managed to save the animals by combining them with various mechanical parts which she managed to procure at water 7. From there she stowed upon another shape and made her way out to sea.

Abilities:
Genius level intellect-Even by the brightest minds at the World Government's disposal Beet is considered a superior intellect. Her intellect, when coupled with her imagination and dogged determination means that there's not much in the way of physically possible that she can't do, and a few things that should be physically possible which she's managed.

Relationships: Can be left blank, optional. For crew, what does she do in the crew, and how much she like the captain for example?

I can change the ocean no problem. Which one would you recommend?

@Archmage MC

There's no need to, its just me being a bit fuzzy :X . And I prefer to leave that South Blue part open-ended ^^;

[vancexentan]

Well if we ever reach the south blue I'd probably be able to fit in an arc related to Adam's father's old crew. I've already thought up some more stuff regarding his rather convoluted 'family' structure/history. I put family in quotes as I'm talking about more than just his blood relatives.

[Archmage MC]

So, am I the ships doctor then? Or what am I?

[Jerkchicken]

I think that depends if sassy gets her character done or not. Although not like redundancy matters since this isn't like a video game mmo where like party balance is needed.

Fair. I could be craftsman with healing if anything.

To the people without finished characters, how's progress?

Good so far but I'll be finish soon

Riko "The Tidecaller" Sakamoto

| 27 | 192cm | 59kg | 2m Bounty | Male |

Appearance: stylish black leather with decorative metal pieces adorning his multi-piece suit, Riko is rarely seen without his protective face mask as it covers a series of horribly facial scars and his many burns from a fire in his early teens.
Unlike his family, men and women of large portions and inhuman strength, Riko took after his mothers side of the family sporting a thin frame mad for speed amd acrobatic achievement over sheer brute strength.

Personality: Riko is boisterous and violently proud of himself and his family history, taking insults to both with blinding fury. Beyond that simple pride lays a fathomless depth of calm and orderly discipline one would expect of a swordsman with such a unique style. If not for his temper one would assume the man was a saint with the patience of a king.

Raised with a healthy respect for hard work beyond the mastery of his families secretive swordsmanship, Riko is a dedicated shipwright with 15 years of experience working on ships from small fishing boats to iron-plated warships. Not a designer of said ships but skilled with repairs.
Beyond repairing ships he enjoys carving wooden statues, often in great detail.

Backstory: blessed are those who wield the sword like a seamstress wields their needle and thread, their tools indistinguishable from their own bodies. Riko was one of many from his hometown believed to be a genius with the sword but the truth is far less fantastic. Granted he had skill but his mother was a savant with her peerless swordsmanship and passed on her skills every chance she could to her only child.
Along with the secrets to her technique when he was finally of age.

Like his mother and grandmother before, Riko possesses the sapphire star. With its control over water, twisting it like a living creature, his secret techniques gained new prowess.
It is with that same control over pockets of water that his talents as a shipwright come in handy, fixing leaks and damage with ease as the water part from him, keeping his hand and mind steady on the tasks at hand.

Abilities: Sapphire☆Star - Precious gemstone imbued with the powers of the Nami-Nami fruit. Grants the owner the ability to control large pockets of water at will, along with a few other benefits. While not nearly as strong as eating the Mizu-Mizu fruit himself, it is still beneficial to his water manipulation sword style.

Ikite iru nami no ha (Blade of living waves) - Water coating the wielders blade strikes out with such force it becomes a powerful projectile.
Slashes create a long thing wave of water, the Sapphire☆Star aiding its solid form, and cuts anything in its path.
Heavy thrusts create a lance of water that pierces those in its path.
Riko often employs a side to side swipe that leaves a lingering sheet of thick water, blunting projectiles. Though it is largely ineffective at close range or against heavier projectiles.

Wakare no nami (Parting Waves) - The ultimate technique of his style. With a heavy slash, drawing on the strength of the Sapphire☆Star to its limits, Riko gouges the very sea below an enemy ship to crash against the seafloor as the water below is parted.
Note: this technique can only be used once every few minutes. While it recovers, the Sapphire☆Star cannot be used in any other way.

Relationships: none

Dreams: To start a family and pass on his technique.

HHH

Name: Handel Haydn Hallelujah

Alias: Commander Hallelujah, Agent Hallelujah, The Fiddler Crab

Appearance:

Appearance

Full body


Face, condescending


Face, smug


Replace the labcoat with a marine's 'Justice' jacket.

Age: 30

Gender: Female

Bounty: 60,000,000 Berries, WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE.

Personality:

Handel seems friendly but in a 'get under your skin' sort of way. An eavesdropper at heart, she likes to plant baby den den mushi in private locations to hear other peoples' conversations and ends up knowing more information about people than they expect. She is a bit obsessive compulsive and can be very particular when it comes to the tidiness of her belongings. She is a deep thinker and surprisingly empathetic. She is always wearing a somewhat creepy smile that makes it hard for others to guess her thoughts. Handel hates when a plan doesn't go right.

Powers/Abilities:

Handel is an inventor and a spy, who uses sound vibrations and information on her enemies to deadly effect. She knows navigation, and has some medical knowledge (mostly anesthesiology, pain management and psychosomatics) so she can be an assistant doctor but not the main doctor. She is better as a strategist, infiltrator or assassin.

Techniques:

In close range, she uses a unique sword-and-shield fighting style. The back of her bass is steel-plated, she holds the neck of the bass, planting the spike of the bass in the ground with its back towards the enemy as a massive riot shield. The bow of her fiddle has a blade along its edge which she swings as a short sword. She is also strong enough to lift the bass and swing it around, using the spike at the bottom to impale foes. She has learned how to use vibrations and sound to affect various materials, as long as she tweaks the frequency. Typically, the stiffer and more brittle a material is, the easier it is to damage it with sound. She can imbue her sword/bow with a frequency by running it along the strings of the base and then striking with the sword giving it a property to easily cleave through the specific material it was tuned to. She can also launch out sonic attacks at range, but sound dissipates with distance and is considerably weaker. She often plays on her own turf, scattering Den Den Mushi around to relay sonic attacks and create harmonic/acoustic/cymatic zones where her sonic attacks are much more powerful and less predictable. Handel knows various ways of using sound to affect the human body. She has the ability to infiltrate Marine ships and bases due to her background and intercept communications with her black Den Den Mushi. Handel requires information on the enemy to be most effective. Her most powerful attacks take time or require preparation beforehand. She has limited long range capabilities, and is more defensive than offensive. She is only a decent swordsman at best, and relies more on surprise, advantage, and finesse. She runs the role of 'support mage' for the most part.

Weapons/Items:

• String Bass (Shield)
• Bass Bow (Sword)
• Various other musical instruments
• Den Den Mushi Set including several regular ones, a few baby ones, and a black one.

Background:

Handel grew up the daughter of a rich, military family. She learned to play string instruments when she was young and was set to become a great marine as her inevitable future career. She joined the marines, keeping peace and helping take down weak pirates in the name of peace and justice, eventually working her way up to being commander and first mate of a ship, where she supported her captain with brilliant strategies that prioritized the survival of the crew, making as few sacrifices as possible, and even preventing the loss of life of the enemy, earning her captain a reputation for mercy.

These strategies earned Handel a transfer from normal navy service into the intelligence division, where she became an agent of Cipher Pol 1, CP1. Here she utilized her ability to gather and exploit information in preventative schemes that stopped violence and uprisings before they began. Yet more and more, she was being asked to make difficult choices and to prioritize 'efficiency' and secrecy over the lives of her enemies and the soldiers she was responsible for. She went along with the flow, comforting herself with moral justifications until it became too much for her. She realized she had become a woman who no longer saw other humans as people but as numbers in her calculations. She had been numbed to the atrocities she had committed in the name of 'justice'. In the middle of an important government operation, Handel let slip the amount of soldiers that would be sacrificed among the navy as well as spilling information to the enemy, giving them a chance to escape. This saved numerous lives from both sides, but convicted her of high treason. She had prepared for this outcome, and slipped away and went into hiding before the marines came to arrest her. She is currently in hiding from the marines and is plotting some way to change the government but she currently has no solid plans.

Other:

Handel is used to luxury and is a big spender. Her musical inventions are also not cheap, so she'll tend to splurge the crews treasure on extravagant shopping sprees.

Relationships: WIP

Dreams:

Her quest is to bring back a moral and ethical government.

@Stern Algorithm ~ I read her bounty as 500 million... Hangovers from the (early) New Year dinner >_> ...
But on that aside, the bounty is a bit too low for someone like a defected CP1 agent, just change it into a more auspicious number like 44 million and its good to go ~

@Zelosse The CS is good, just that the name of the devil fruit sounds a bit off. Water Water fruit is a bit weird, but tide tide fruit or wave wave fruit sounds a bit better. Ohh, there's also Gura Gura fruit in the anime ~
