Crew/Base: -
Bounty/Rank: -
Age: 18
Height:6'0"

Personality: Although he appears to be reserved and calculating, he is quite the opposite.

He does have a sense of humor, but he prefers to play the jokes, and not receive them.

Weapons (if any): A pair of katanas
Transportation: A simple boat, not meant for many as he is searching for a crew or people to form a crew with.
Dream/Goal: Become the best swordsman in the world, surpassing Mihawk.
Origins: Born into a merchant family in the East Blue, Robert grew up well educated and well fed. He never worried about his next meal. This carried on while the family was well enough off. However, as time passed and business declined due to an outward migration, his family's stores fell with it. Within a few years, he was sent off to a boarding school with what his family can spare and he never heard from them again.
Upon arrival, he knew that this was not the same crowd he grew up with. These kids were essentially street thugs. He has never had to fend for himself, until now. After the first few months where he got involved in nearly every fight that broke out. He had earned a reputation. He had a small group of kids following him, with him at the top as "Baron" Delaware. Although not the most infamous in the school, he was quickly asserting himself as such. Using his childhood training in swordsmanship, he quickly discovered that he has a natural talent with the sword. Now his preferred weapon, he carries two with him wherever he goes.
By age eighteen when he 'finished' school, his crew was the most infamous. The teachers, the disciplinarians, the students most of all, were all keeping their distance from them. For the most part, his crew is well-behaved. However, when things get out of hand, there isn't very many people that can stop them. On his graduation trip into the forest, Robert found a strange fruit. No one he knew had a clue as to what it was. Being the hotheaded teenage boy he was, he was urged on to eat it by his friends. Never backing down from a challenge, he took one bite and his life changed forever...
He did not remember what happened after he bit into the fruit. When he woke up, his friends had scattered and there were char makes all around him. To him, they look like marks that have been made with thunder. Approaching the nearby lake to wake himself up, he reached his hand into the standing water and nearly fainted instantly. Tumbling backwards, he gathered himself and tried again. Same effect. He then started remembering a whisper he heard through the grapevine. There are these mysterious fruits in the world that, once eaten, grants the consumer strange powers. However, the sea will forever reject them and if they come into contact with standing water, they become like hammers... One more thing of note he heard about these fruits is that they taste absolutely horrible. The taste of the fruit he bit into is something he will never forget. It tasted like...electricity, if such a thing was possible...
Scrapping up whatever berrie he can find and using a bit of coercion, he got himself a small boat, meant for a crew of no more than five, and set sail. His purpose is solely to find out what actually happened to him, and his friends, for now...
