Appearance: http://makkiesharks.deviantart.com/art/Wip-512245367 Name: Rem Age: 17 Race: Human Height and Weight: Five feet and six inches, 142 Pounds Bounty: 0 Beli Personality: Rem is generally a very carefree person, unlikely to be the serious and demanding captain most would expect from a captain. He tends to act goofily and mess around, often being very blunt and disrespectful when doing so. When he speaks, he is often very loud. In fact, seeing him spend a day without yelling only occurs once in a blue moon, if even. Like many pirates, he is not only foul mouthed, but has lots of ambition as well. This stems mostly from his own avarice. He wants to enjoy anything the world can offer him, gain anything that he can attain, and explore parts of the world he's never seen. He is very loyal to his comrades, especially his crew mates. They are treated like family, even insulting them would be enough to make Rem lose his temper. Rem, since his early childhood, has always been interested in learning about the world. While not initially seeming like he would, he possesses an adequate knowledge of the world's history. As a child, he dreamed of traveling to these places. This is one of the things (among others) that inspired him to set out to sea. While he is very dumb when it comes to other subjects, he has a vast knowledge of various islands. He is a very skilled piano player, an instrument he was taught to play by his guardian. He is very fascinated with bizarre or strange things, such as weird animals or people. He has a natural love for fighting and has great pride in his strength. History:

Ever since his birth, it seemed inevitable that Rem would become a criminal. His parents were two notorious pirates, both rookies at the time. One of them was a man named Easton Seegar. He was a notably handsome and muscular young men, but also very cruel. Another trait of his that stuck out like a sore thumb was his oversexed personality. Wherever he went, he would always have a one night stand with a woman foolish enough not to know his true identity. As a result, many children have been left fatherless because of his tendency to never let relationships go beyond a one night stand. It is said that "Easton Seegar" is an alias and he keeps his true name hidden for reasons unknown. The mother, on the other hand, was a curious woman. Her name was Morgana Levasseur, a former high-ranking marine. She was known to be very capricious, but no one expected her to do something of this caliber. The only explanation she gave was that she couldn't being held back by laws for much longer. Not only was she actively a threat to the world government, but she had also managed to gather a crew of incredibly powerful fighters. One of these fighters was a man named Bruno, a hairy musician whose main purpose was to keep the crew at high spirits. He comes into the picture shortly after a short series of events. Morgana was also known to be a thrill-seeker, always having the need to experience new things. This manner of thinking is eventually what caused Rem's birth. Both of these infamous figures had met each other at Mock Town where they had both gotten incredibly drunk. Against their better judgement, both of them had decided to spend the night together. When morning came, it was clear that the Seegar was the only one of the two that didn't regret his actions. They both split up soon after, Morgana's crew never dared to bring up that moment again, but there was a reminder for the next nine months of travel. She was pregnant with Seegar's child. Even her own adventurous personality quickly grew frustrated by the torture she had to endure day after day. It was obvious to her crew from the very start that once she gave birth, the child would not be staying with them for very long. She gave birth while traveling through the sea. Without so much as giving the newborn a name, she immediately ordered for it to be killed. Bruno knew that this was coming, but he could not bear to let a child be killed. Even as a pirate, Bruno still had standards. He firmly believed that children were born without sin and could not bear to see one be harmed. Even when they raided villages or committed other crimes, Bruno refused to ever harm a child. This was when Morgana issued a challenge to test his resolve. He would spend fourteen days without eating food. During this time, the baby would be fed in his place. Without a moment's hesitation, Bruno accepted the challenge. For two harsh weeks, Bruno kept his word and ate nothing. All the while he played his violin for the crew as per usual. By the end of the challenge, Bruno felt significantly weaker than he did before. He collapsed right after the end of the last day. Morgana had pity on the man and allowed him to rest until he was fully recovered. Even after he left the crew, Morgana could not pretend as if the friendship she formed with Bruno had never existed. After a month of rest, they were sent off with a small ship and a month's worth of rations as parting gifts. The crew's ship was extraordinarily large and full of food; a month's worth of food was nothing to them. — They both arrived at the East Blue within a year. Bruno disguised himself to avoid being identified by anyone. Fortunately, because his most defining characteristic was his obscene amount of hair spread all over his body, Bruno was easily able to shave it and hide from the authorities. Bruno raised Rem in a small village in the East Blue, one that wasn't very heavily populated. Bruno homeschooled him and taught him basic math and literacy. However, he was never taught any of the more advanced topics, mostly because Bruno wasn't all too bright either. Not surprisingly, given his heritage, Rem was also a huge troublemaker. He had a nasty habit of stealing from other people and often picked fights with. Several other boys from the village would try to fight against him, but not one of them had ever defeated him. This is also when he started trying to execute some techniques that he thought would be cool to pull off. He never did have quite enough strength to successfully use them on actual people. He was around 10 years old during this time. Soon, he was challenged by a boy named Puer. The boy was a year older than him. But he was a bit too easy to make cry and constantly talked about his "manly pride". Predictably, Rem was easily able to take him out. But his other opponents, Puer would come back day after day to challenge him. While Puer never actually won, it was clear that he had been improving because of their fights. Over time, the two of them had developed an odd friendship. They would always fight each other and train to get stronger. They both dreamed of becoming the strongest warriors on the island and protect their "turf". Nobody really understood how these two were able to become friends. The closest explanation anyone got was from Puer; he said that their friendship was forged by the sheer power of their manliness! On one of the island's more relaxed days, something strange happened. People had actually come to visit! Everybody was intrigued by the group of new arrivals. They were a group of adventurers that simply traveled across the world with no real goal in mind. Their leader was an adventurous botanist named Carlos. The group stayed there for the rest of the day. Rem and Puer listened to the stories they had to share. Carlos and his men told of unbelievable sights and new discoveries all over the world! The band of travelers are what inspired both Rem and Puer to set off to sea in the future. Rem had even convinced them to lend him one of the history books from their ship's small library. After the travelers left, both Puer and Rem agreed that they would set sail when they thought they were powerful enough. They had also unintentionally inspired both of them to become pirates! As pirates, they would be able to explore just as Carlos and his men did. The major difference being that they wouldn't be restricted by the law of the government. While they had achieved remarkable feats, explorers were ultimately bound by the same laws of everyone else. Pirates had the most freedom on the sea, it was only natural that the two boys would choose to become one of them. Rem soon realized something. If a pirate had such freedom, how much would their king have? He was 12 years old at the time, he had gained two ambitions: become the pirate king; explore the entire world. After this point, they forced themselves to train even harding, vowing to turn into true men of the sea! Despite talking about his ambitions to no end, his first actual experience with a pirate happened when he was 13. As usual, Rem and Puer were together. They were in a bar, trying their damnedest to convince the bartender to sell them some booze. Both claimed that it would be used in a ritual that would allow the two of them to become true brothers. Naturally, the bartender didn't budge in the slightest. It was then that panicked voices became audible from the outside of the bar. An actual pirate crew had managed to enter the village! Upon entering the bar, the captain of the crew, Leonidas, demanded that they be given all the alcohol the man had on him. While Puer was rightfully frightened by these events, Rem was fascinated. He immediately started pestering the pirates to tell him about their adventures. Rem had quickly managed to irritate Leonidas within half a minute of talking to him. So much so that Leonidas personally took it upon himself to rough him up. Rem was shocked as the pirate knocked him down to the floor with a single punch. His curiosity and fascination had quickly turned into rage. He fought back, but was no match for the obscenely muscular man. Puer had eventually attempted to help Rem fight, actually managing to get a punch in purely by surprise. This served only to make Leonidas angrier, and Puer was given an even worse beating than Rem was, easily knocking him unconscious. Just when it seemed as if both of them would be killed, an unexpected rescue had come to their aid. Bruno had overheard the commotion and decided to check things out for himself. Immediately, Rem demanded that Bruno escape as soon as possible, but he refused to budge. The beating that happened shortly after was incredible. Leonidas threatened to kill the man should he had chosen to interfere any further, Bruno responded by knocking the man out with a simple uppercut to the jaw. They were amazed by Bruno's power, even at the age of 52, there was no doubt that he had once been an incredibly powerful pirate. The rest of the crew were easily intimidated by him. They begged for their lives, promising to never return to the village. Bruno decided to leave them be, but promised to kill all of them if they dared to return to the village. Rem was infuriated even more soon after they left. Never in his life had he ever felt so weak. Even though Bruno had saved him, Rem's shame didn't allow him to thank his guardian. Puer was unable to thank the man either, even after he woke up. The single traumatic event was enough to break his will to become a pirate, but it was not until much later on did he make the decision that would end his friendship with Rem. A year after the pirates visited the village, Rem and Puer were able to show the fruits of their labor. Both of them had an immense spike in power as they grew older, they were certain that they could defeat Leonidas if they had the chance. At the end of another training session, however, Puer told Rem something that surprised him to no end. Puer had given up his dreams to become a pirate. Ever since he was a child, Puer viewed pirates as being manly romanticists. Leonidas and his gang singlehandedly changed his perception of them. His goal had become different from Rem's, he wanted to become a marine! He wanted to become a marine to take pirates down! Puer urged Rem to do the same, but was immediately punched in the face. It was one of those few moments where Rem actually showed true anger. He called Puer weak for allowing his dream to be crushed so easily, scoffing at his new resolve. For the first time, the two of them had a real fight. The fight ended in a tie, something that had never happened in the entirety of their friendship. They both left the fight was horrible injuries. After that point, they never trained together again. A few months after he became 16 years old, Rem decided that he was finally ready to become a pirate. His power had become monstrous, even the villagers that mocked him as a child were astounded by his strength. Despite his initial protests, Bruno was forced to let Rem pursue his dreams. As a parting gift, Bruno gave him a boater hat. The same hat he had worn while performing musical numbers on Morgana's crew. Rem gladly accepted the gift, but was surprised when Bruno said that there was one more thing that he had to say. The identity of his parents. Before Bruno could speak any further, Rem quickly put his fingers in his ears. He yelled at the old man, refusing to know who is parents were. The man was confused by Rem's actions, but felt pride as he heard Rem's reasons for doing so. "I don't need to know who they are, you're my parent, old man!" The rest of the villagers were there when he finally set sail on a small raft. Puer, who he had not spoken to in two years, left him with words that declared Rem as both his enemy and friend. "I'll be the one to catch you, bro!" Since they first met, they never failed to remind others that they were brothers, even if not by blood. Calling each other "bro" was a way to signify that. Rem had a grin on his face as he sailed away, simply daring Puer to try. It was on these travels that he landed on an island that was terrified of a pirate crew that had settled there. To his surprise, it was Leonidas and his crew! Their first thoughts were to take revenge on him in they tavern they constant messed around at, but Rem was easily able to overpower them. They begged him for forgiveness as they did to Bruno several years ago. Rem complied, but decided to take something of theirs before he let them go. He noticed a small treasure chest with a strange looking fruit and ate it because of how weird it looked. He was more surprised by the taste than what the fruit actually did to him. Leonidas' crew once again left the island, Rem doing the same soon after. He is seventeen years old now and has recently been looking for more people to join his crew.
