<p> <strong> Name: </strong><span style="font-family:Akronim;"><span style="font-size:36px;"><span style="color:rgb(255,0,0);">Watanabe Hotaka Wasabi </span></span></span>(Wasabi is his first name, obviously). <strong>Age: </strong>25 <strong>Gender: </strong>Male <strong>Height: </strong>7'0 <strong>Physical Description: </strong>Wasabi has medium length light grey hair that is often obscured or hidden by his rice hat. His eyes are the color of jade, hinting at the tree of a man that he is. Being seven feet tall, he towers over most others, yet is able to disappear through cracks like a cat due to his relatively thin build. One would not be aware of the true strength of muscle he held within him due to his modest tire. This includes a tight black undershirt, like that of a turtleneck, a loose black gi, and thick black gloves when in battle. However, Wasabi rarely wares footwear, and when he does, it is in the form of a sandal. His gi is wrapped shut by a black sash and there are external pockets attached to his legs that house his various weapons. (I may draw a picture in the future). <strong>Position in the crew: </strong>Cook. <strong>Character Strengths:</strong> </p>

<li>Lack of purpose. </li>
</ul><p> <strong>Personality: </strong>Wasabi is a soft-spoken man on a search for truth. He wishes to understand the purpose of the world and what role people play in it. He interacts with people in a fairly respectful manner, only getting on edge if someone is complaining about food or if a life is being threatened. Despite this, he is opinionated, and will respectfully stand his ground until the other gives in or he is proven wrong. Interacting with pirates is somewhat different. Wasabi was of the opinion that pirates were a vile species. However, his current situation forces him to be one of them. So he hopes to utilize this opportunity to understand their ways and hopefully bring new insight into their lives. In a sense, he is attempting to preach to the blind through leading by example. Cooking is something Wasabi takes seriously, as it is an important part of his heritage. His meals often include rice, though he is successfully venturing into other styles as well. Also, he is very particular about the rules and etiquette surrounding his meals. Someone who disobeys these rules could be subject to penalties up to not receiving a meal for the day. <strong> Biography: </strong>Wasabi Hotaka Watanabe was born on an island that was one huge rice farming village. As a child, boomerangs were his object of fancy. In his mind, they could be utilized for recreation, hunting, fishing, and farming, among other things. Wasabi theorized that a properly designed boomerang could be utilized in shaving grass or collecting yields of the field. Overall, it had the potential to free up the time of the farmers. As the trees lengthened from one season to the next, Wasabi experimented with boomerangs and other devices thrown by the hand. It was around this time that he began to dabble in cooking as well. The same creativity that developed his throwing devices was brought to the family dinner table. Thus, he became a beloved member of the village at an astoundingly young age. However, outsiders occasionally visited the island. Some were freighters looking for their promised stock of rice, others were seekers of simple lives. Even a few pirates raided from time to time. Though the pirates were only small time. There was nothing of great importance on the island, at least in the eyes of a pirate. Thus Wasabi was able to experiment in relative peace. It was on his eighteenth birthday that Wasabi succeeded in his life's goal. He had designed a pocketed boomerang for use in collecting the yield of crops. It became known in the village as a 'Farmer's Frisbee', or the 'Boomerbasket'. The village realized the time saved by this instrument and began to take interest in proper use. Young farmers would take lessons from Wasabi in form of throw, gauging distance, precision of arc, and other such skills. Happy endings do not come to men of twenty years old. Wasabi learned this lesson when a unprecedentedly strong group of pirates sacked the village. To his surprise, the village fought back. The young farmers utilized the information he had sought them for collecting yield, to fight off the pirates in defense of their families, friends, and village. This of course attracted an unwanted gaze. The impossible victory could not have been the result of hard work. The Marines were the first to take action. Quickly analyzing the situation, they labeled Wasabi as a tyrant in search of power through obscure and unfair military might. At the age of twenty-one, Wasabi held a bounty equivalent to that of dangerous pirate captains that had committed much harsher crimes. His village promised to protect him and fought off a few raids. Wasabi intensified his training, not realizing he was the target of the oncoming attacks. He perfected the skill meant for farming into a martial art. Despite his hard work, Wasabi was unable to protect everyone in the village. Then, after a failed attack, Wasabi discovered a bounty. The price made his hair stand on end. He was sure the man must be dangerous, and feared he was hiding in the village. When he flipped the bounty over and discovered that he was the target, he disappeared from the village and fled for a pirate crew that would accept him. If he could make it known that he was off the island, there would be no reason for the attacks to continue in his mind. <strong> Fighting Style: </strong>Wasabi practices a martial art that utilizes palm strikes and shin kicks. However, the main focus of the self developed art is ranged, particularly thrown, weapons. He has numerous, personally designed boomerangs. These include a foldable razor boomerang, a blunt impact hunting boomerang, and a smaller version of the foldable razor boomerang that he utilizes more as a knife. He has also fashioned his rice hat into a weapon of throwing, as it is lined with a sharp metal edge. It acts like a frisbee, but if angled correctly, can also act as a boomerang. Wasabi also utilizes shuriken attached to a mechanism on his belt and throwing knives that are strapped to his left leg. When not in use, his boomerangs are magnetically connected to his right leg at certain points. <strong>Possessions: </strong> </p>
