OK, so heres a rough draft on my character, hes not a pirate, not yet anyway.
Name: Griff
Age: 18
Appearance:
Crew Position: sailor? above average mechanic.
Power Type: Power-Power fruit and gadgets.
Personality: Griff is a cheerful and laid back kind of guy, he doesn't really like to battle but he can rise to an occasion, he usually prefers to avoid combat. He really likes to tinker and make all sorts of gadgets and machines with his power. Griff is a thief, so he likes money, but he usually doesn't steal from someone he feels sorry for, kind of an honorable thief.
History: Born an orphan in the trash piles outside a certain kingdom, he was accustomed to avoiding trouble and taking what he could to survive, he built little things to help him with said tasks like telescopes and little bells and whistles to distract and observe. It is a harsh reality that he bared with other children from around the place. At the age of 14, he got bored of life in the trash and sought something more, stowing away on a ship and leaving for the world.
Taking some provisions of the ship, and some gold, he ventured to the land, stealing when necessary and seeing the land. One day he was caught stealing from some big gang, a strange fruit that he ate out of hunger, they seriously beat him and dragged his bloodied and broken body to the wilderness so some hungry animal could dispose of the body. Griff lost conscious right after they left him for dead.
Afterward he woke up bandaged up in an unknown bed, he cautiously took a look around the house to see where he had ended up and if anything of value was there. When he exited the room, a big old man greeted him and asked if he felt better. (not getting into further detail here) the man took pity on Griff and taught him how to recieve a number of blows and how to deflect them so he could defend himself, while he stole money whenever he could. Over time Griff accumulated energy that one day blew up him room in a violet explosion, a feint purple aura lingered around Griff as he watched in awe of the destructive power he had witnessed, that day Griff took awareness of his powers and left all the gold he had accumulated then with the old man as he left to an uninhabited place to understand his power.
Now Griff is an infamous and crafty thief with an average low bounty, and a secret and relatively big stash of money. Having made enough enemies in town he moves from town to town.
Fruit Type: Paramecia
Abilities: He can manipulate his (energy) to make a power substance, generally a sphere like orb ranging from red to violet, made of kinetic energy, by itself it can be used to create a great impact but gathering energy takes time that's too precious in battle, so he prepares the energy beforehand and fuels his gadgets with said energy, he has gauntlets and shoes that can use it for bursts of propulsion, a grappling hook with the same function, wheels on his shoes, smoke bombs and flash bombs, due to his training, he can resist a good blow or two and can redirect blows. Like any other thief, he has fast hands. He's movements are fluid.
Others: has many other useful and useless gadgets that he carries in a small cart along with his hidden loot.
