[OOC] One Piece: New Age

[Duthguy]

Works for me, the captain is the one with the logpose though right?

[Jensoman]

Well, technically the Navigator would wear it actually..

I think I might have said the captain would have it at one point...that's my bad if I did.

But the captain would probably decide which course to take.

Right now, though, the Log Pose that you get in the first part of the Grand Line is just the one that points to the next island.

In the New World, the second part of the Grand Line, there will be the possibility to choose between three islands. The needle of the island that twitches the most would be the most dangerous.

@Jensoman

I'm pretty sure you did say that.

Oops

My bad then :P

Okay, so before I post, I have a quick question. And it's more looking for opinions than anything else, but also for confirmation that I can do this. xD

Satoru was raised by Marines, but what rank of Marine, I'm not sure. Anything you'd prefer? Definitely not an Admiral, I'm assuming, but the less-important ranks from Vice-Admiral and down? Vice Admiral, Rear Admiral, Commodore, Captain, Commander, Lieutenant Commander, Junior Lieutenant, Ensign....

@Digizel

A captain would probably have some access to Haki...

Based off from Coby and Smoker after time skip, any way.

So, you'd definitely be below Captain Rank. A captain is in charge of only one ship, like pirates.

I'm not very familiar with Marine rankings, but I think Junior Lieutenant would do. Seems to fit in regards to the basic power level that everyone would have to start out with.

Edit: I just remembered Smoker is actually Vice- Admiral rank, my bad. Still, I think Junior Lieutenant is the best choice here, compared to what Coby could do.

@Jensoman

Well yes, the captain would definitely have access to Haki. But keep in mind, these are his parents, not himself. Just because his parents might be Haki-capable doesn't mean he is yet. After all...if he could use Haki, his parents would have probably already made him join the Marines and he'd be a pretty decently-ranked officer. xD I mean...Luffy's grandpa was a Vice-Admiral and he was still no stronger than he was at the beginning of that series. xD

Of course, I'm fine with Junior Lieutenant if that's what you want me to stick with regardless. The rankings I listed there are from highest to lowest (obviously, with Fleet Admiral and Admiral being above Vice-Admiral. I also forgot to include Lieutenant between the other two Lieutenant ranks). Possibly worth noting: Donquixote Rosinante was a Commander rank and Helmeppo is currently a Lieutenant Commander. Rokkaku, the man who first accepted Coby into the Marines during the Romance Dawn arc, was a Junior Lieutenant.

@Digizel

Oh, sorry, I was unsure if you were talking about what rank he used to be, or what rank his parents are. It doesn't really matter too much. So yeah, go ahead and stick with Junior Lieutenant. Really, any rank below Captain is fine for his parents.

[Jensoman]

Good start guys!

Keep posting once a day, until you've all met up properly and reach Lenwood's ship.

After the ship has set sail, me and Tex will post :P

[Duthguy]

Should I wait until has Zellected posted again or is that not necessary?

[Jensoman]

Well, the order in which you guys post doesn't matter. As long as it's just one post a day.

I want to avoid people from being left behind during conversation, though.

That's kinda why I do the "one post a day" thing, cause myself and some other peeps could have a hard time keeping up.

I could make an exception for peeps to be able to post more then once if social interaction happens to make things go faster, but ehh...I don't think that's a good idea.

Might change my mind on that later, for now it's still the 'one post a day' rule for social stuff too.

[Duthguy]

Well Asus did try to start a conversation with Lenwood, so this time at least waiting a bit is probably smart.

[Jensoman]

Umm, Asus is a dude, not a girl :P

Ya might want to edit that bit malmshodes :P

Not a big deal, just pointing it out.

@Jensoman

Oops. My bad. I got him confused with ice hearts character. I'll change it.

[Walnutella]

Sorry if it was late for me to post. Yesterday, I went to Anime Festival and returned home at midnight, pretty tired ^^. Also, Work has started so I only have few hours in the afternoon, plus different timezone guys.. I hope you can understand, cheers ^^

EDIT: I would post now but seems @IceHeart doesn't post, so, I will wait for him, I will wait 5 hours. Then, I will reply ^^

@zellected

Actually Digizel was supposed to post before you-

Well, I guess it's no big deal.

Since everyone is ready to rumble... LET'S START RIGHT AWAY!

Battles are also one post a day. First all five of you will post once, then I will post after.

@Jensoman

Okay for that mistake I'm gonna train hornets irl and send them after you Malms

[Digizel]

Ah, sorry for disappearing on you guys for a couple days. I spent much of yesterday catching up on roleplays I have going in other places and burned myself out for the day...and then it got super busy today when I had to go to my forensics class. xD But I'll try to make a post tomorrow, when it's not one in the morning and my quality will be garbage.

But before I do, I would like to clarify one thing about the Coat Fruit that I failed to specify, that I'd need some opinions on what is acceptable.

And that would be the amount of surface necessary for him to touch before he can coat himself in that material. would you be willing to let him just touch anything with any part of his body as long as it's bare skin? Or does he have to place, say, an entire palm on the surface? And in the case of the latter, I would assume that curved surfaces would be fine as well?

@Digizel

I would start out with needing to put an entire palm on the surface. Curved surfaces are fine too.

Perhaps later on, as the RP progresses, as he gets better with his Devil Fruit, he could learn how to be able to coat by touching anything with any part of his body with bare skin.

@Jensoman

My thoughts exactly. =3

Alrighty then, I finally posted back. I decided to take this opportunity for him to show how his medical knowledge can be put to pretty good combat use. xD

(I also made a few quick edits after the post to fix a few mistakes I'd made. But it should be good to read now.)
