Fandom One Piece Marines: Misfits Characters

[Hanarei]

Below is the CS! A few things to note.

Guidelines

• Characters are all lower ranking Marines. Strength wise they should roughly match the straw hats upon first entering the grand line. You are practically fodder for the skilled pirates out there, but with hard work and dedication, you can become more!
• This is a One Piece Roleplay. Some wackiness is expected of the characters. Just remember that despite its silliness One Piece makes sure the characters are human (well, you get the point) tragic things can happen and its the good and the bad that shape a character to be who they are.
• This is an AU One Piece Roleplay. None of the cast will be in this story, though elements of the story and its background can be used/referenced (the Great Pirate Era and effectively Gol D. Roger starting it being elements involved in the RP still). Feel free to message me if there is anything you wish to use that you aren't sure of and I'll see about making it work.
• Remember that I am in charge here. I am what allows this ship to stay barely above float. I am more laid back but if I have to step in and lay down the law follow it so we can focus on the roleplay and having fun.
• For Marine Ranks refer to This Lovely Chart. For a list of Crew roles (though don't nessisarily think you have to limit it to just those contained there) refer to This Lovely Wiki. For a guide for how to make your character OP in OP, refer to this great tutorial here.
• DO NOT POST SHEETS UP HERE IMMEDIATELY Send sheets to me directly through a DM for me to look over before you post. I just like to make sure it looks good before giving the okay to post it up.

Timothy N. LeBlanc

Age: 17
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Rank: Seaman Recruit
Crew Position: Cook, Ship's Watch, and Fisherman

• Personal
• Background
• Items
• Combat
• Abilities

• 
  Height: 5'8"
  Weight: 155 lbs.
  Birthday: 07/27
  
  Personality
  Energetic and eager to a fault, Timothy appears almost as if he has infinite energy and optimism. He pursues every task asked of him with bright optimism and relentless effort regardless of how minimal. A bit daft however, Timothy has no grasp on sarcasm or irony. As such he's remarkably easy to trick and deceive. He constantly seeks to improve himself, whether it be through physical exercise, reading about the world, or doing tasks for the people of the seas! To become an Admiral worth the title he believes he must be strong, intelligent, and a man of the people!
  
  Notable Quirk
  Timothy does not refuse a request for assistance from fellow Marines or civilians, no matter how ridiculous it sounds. However he won't do things that break the law or are inherently mean to others.
  
  Motivation
  Timothy wants to become an Admiral and protect the seas like the man who saved his village from pirates!
  
  
• Home Island: Backwater Village, South Blue
  A small village on what could only by the barest margins be called an island. They are known for producing many of the world's most prestigious fisherman, and not much else.
  
  Background
  Born in Backwater Village, Timothy grew up appreciating the simple things in life. His parents were both simple fishermen and he took after them. In his youth his village was attacked by pirates and most of the village was set to the torch. However a lone Marine appeared as if from nowhere and saved the inhabitants, laying waste to the pirates and putting out the fire. Timothy found it blindingly inspiring and sought to become a Marine to follow in the man's foot steps.
  
  Enlisting upon his coming of age in the village, he was initially loved for his energetic, willing to work nature. However he quickly went too far for his original crews taste with his over-willingness to "help". After an incident where he tried to help his commanding officer in the bathroom, he was promoted from Chore Boy to Seaman Recruit and transferred to the Misfits as a....."reward".
  
  
  Relatives
  Derk K. LeBlanc, Father, Alive
  Mary S. LeBlanc, Mother, Alive
  
  
• Weapons
  Deepstrike
  The spear pictured above, it functions both as his spearfishing gig, and as his in combat weapon. It has a hole in the base where a rope is tied to pull it back after spearing a fish at range.
  
  
• 
  Combat Role: Close-to-Mid Range Specialist
  
  Fighting Style
  Timothy has trained in use of spears since childhood for fishing, and since joining the Marines has been trained in polearm combat as a whole. Twirls and thrusts are the name of the game.
  
  Strengths
  Balance - Timothy has an unheard of natural balance, being completely at ease even in the heaviest storms and tossing ships. This translates well to combat with varyingly weighted objects like polearms.
  
  Unwavering - Timothy does not surrender. You will kill him or he will keep going until ordered otherwise.
  
  Excellent Perception - As needed by the best of fishermen, his eyesight is greatly above the average as needed to pick out single fish and the like under the dark waves.
  
  Weaknesses
  Gullible - Timothy tends to take everything at face value, and as a result is easily tricked or misdirected.
  
  Sensitive Eyes - The drawback of having superior vision is the super sensitivity. Bright flashes or detritus are his bane.
  
  Weak - Timothy comes from a poor village and has yet to build much muscle since joining up. In direct muscle to muscle confrontation he's highly likely to lose for quite some time.
  
  
• 
  Skills
  - Cooking
  - Spear and rod fishing
  - Simple sewing
  - Unyielding positivity and encouragement!
  
  
  Abilities
  True Strike! - He yells this as he goes to spear a fish. (Perhaps also people)

Race: Human
Gender: Female
Rank: Petty Officer
Crew Position: Communications and Records Officer / Morale Officer

• Personal
• Background
• Items
• Combat
• Abilities
• Fluff

• 
  Appearance:
  A buxom young woman with thick curves and an almost constant sultry grin to her features as well as taking every opportunity to show off her physique if their clothing theme is anything to go by. Standing to what many would consider an ideal beauty, her smooth fair skin itself seems to lack any flaw and voluminous silken blonde hair flowing down into curls atop her shoulders while framing the sapphire eyes that glance out at her interests. Her default attire consists of a silken restyling of the marines thought tightly fitted and a shirt so small it resembles barely a bustier, creating diamond-shaped openings revealing vast cleavage and midriff with similar fabrics covering their arms and legs to end in high heels, topped off with an oversized white Marine coat over her shoulders emblazoned with her epithet. The final distinct feature is a marine tattoo across her upper pelvis.
  
  Height: 6'3½ (191cm)
  Birthday: 08/23
  
  Personality:
  An Affable and charming girl who is fully aware of her appearance, taking great pride within such and commonly using these to her benefit or teasing in a flirty and playful manner. This can sometimes become twisted with a slightly more sadistic and domineering side coming out if she becomes stressed, angered or excess alcohol becomes involved. Still, she can be rather obsessive and narcissistic at times in her vanity, a free spirit with a draw towards the luxury and pampering in between somewhat chaotic plans. She can also, however, be quite forgiving and merciful when the moment calls for it, with it being suspected her habit of conveniently missing, forgetting, or seemingly oblivious to unlawful actions. She has shown her belief in Justice to exist within three states, That's Grand, Eh-Don't Push it, Ok now you're taking the liberty, with only the final prompting full action.
  
  Likes: Attention, Beli, Clothing, Food, Dance, Pageantry, Partys, Shopping, Spas, Talking, Teasing
  Dislikes: Desert, Dirt, Cramped Spaces, Cruelty, Ignored, Insects, Insults, Isolation, Poor Food, Restrictions
  
  Notable Quirk:
  
  • A Penchant for over the top and flashy poses while attempting to charm offenders into cuffs or giving her what she wants, though such can flip from sweet to domineering in an instant and back again.
  • Prone to buying an extravagant luxury or taking any opportunity for pampering, while they hold a talent for acquiring money, they are prone to spending it just as quickly.
  
  Motivation: Seeking out a Peaceful Justice, Rise up the Marines.
  
• Home Island: Marine Base N12, Rockafell Island, North Blue
  
  Background
  A Marine child from birth she would be raised around the culture itself, though the status of her father would result in pampering beyond belief in addition to being given incredible leniency in her actions. Her father would commonly be aware for extended periods of time, though moments of his return would always coincide with gifts and days of pampering resulting in her more adorable side as a daddy's girl coming out in force. As a result, it was only natural for her to end up joining the marines as to not disappoint as well as a method to travel freely, though her more chaotic and free-spirited nature would result in a high number of infractions.
  
  It was these actions that while covered for would earn her a place in the Misfits, her list of deads includes the misuse of Marine Funds, Unauthorized modification of marine equipment, Possession and distribution of contraband, unauthorized gatherings, breaking curfew, allowing the escape of lawbreakers and many more. The only reason she had remained within the Marines despite these complaints were her charms, father's status, positive effects on morale, and seemingly lucky apprehension of the more severe lawbreakers.

Suri Eldig

Age: 19
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Rank: Ensign
Crew Position: Captain

• Personal
• Background
• Items
• Combat
• Abilities
• Fluff

• 
  Height: 5'6
  Birthday: 7/17
  
  Personality
  Suri is quite a tomboy often acting a bit immature for many peoples liking. She is very much trying to prove herself being strong despite having some obvious stumbles along the way. She can't stand girly things being quite embarrassed to have to wear such things. She likes to put on a bit of a tough girl act that often can suddenly fizzle out with her 'just joking' or 'just teasing'. Suri has a tendency to like pulling pranks of often questionable quality. She can be quite headstrong to a fault often pushing for certain things being hard to fully be deterred away though not above making some compromises. She can be quite reckless getting herself into trouble acting on impulse rather then using her head. Despite her prankster tendencies, Suri does care for the well being of others and can be quite selfless.
  
  Notable Quirk
  Suri is a large tomboy. She can't help causing pranks or teasing others in often cringy ways.
  
  Motivation
  Venture the world attempting to do good for the citizens and get rid of the evil pirates terrorizing them.
  
  
• Home Island: Mary Geoise
  
  Background
  Suri was born the child of a Slave serving under the World Noble Saint Ferid. Despite being a child born of a slave Suri lived a rather decent life. While expected to do work, she was often given much more trivial chores and left to her own devices perhaps in part due to her age though seemingly Saint Ferid having a particular interest in her. She grew up learning primarily from another of the slaves named Kaira which was charged with primarily taking care with her. Despite being under her care primarily, she did get on good terms with most of the others, most seeming to view her in a positive light in some part attributing her to Ferid becoming a much more gentle man compared to his past cold and distant ways before her birth.
  
  Despite having a rather glamorous life considering her position, Suri was quick to find herself wanting to venture outdoors. While Saint Ferid had been kind enough to often give her more free reign and even providing the occasional gift, she was strictly prohibited from going outdoors due to the potential trouble she could get in with the other world nobles. While the idea of breaking out had always been something she had in mind, Suri instead ended up developing a penchant for setting up pranks around the estate for the others to fall into. A more innocent and childish game that got more... mixed responses. No matter how annoyed some got with her and they seemingly wanted to retaliate against her, she always felt like there was some reason they wouldn't try and get her back. She couldn't explain it, though perhaps it was just her overthinking things.
  
  As Suri became older entering into her teen years, her desire to explore the world had grew so much she could hardly contain it. She would often pester others about going out even doing so to Saint Ferid who always seemed to try and stay a bit distant and tell her no. It was in part her desire to try and find a way to get permission to leave the estate that she ultimately came to the idea of the Marines. They not only provided her an escape from her luxury prison, but also a way in which she could help out. She began to train a bit on her own ultimately pushing Saint Ferid until he relented deciding to see if he can pull some strings to get her a position in the marines until ultimate she got her chance. For the first time in her life, she was snuck out from the Estate and taken down to Marine HQ where she was trained by Rear Admiral Farley privately.
  
  Upon spending nearly 6 months in intense training and not once allowing herself to quit, Suri was promoted up almost instantly to Ensign from what she was told was 'showing hard work and dedication'. It was something even she couldn't help but find a little strange though she only naturally accepted rank. From there she was then sent out to be second in command of a small backwater base on the Island of Meadows. It wasn't quite the exploration she had hoped for but she was more then excited to take part in her first assignment and do the good for the citizens of the world!
  
  It wasn't anything like she imagined.
  
  From the time she arrived expecting a nice island she found out it was all but a barren island with only rocks and not a single blade of grass to be seen. While she was second in command, there were none under her as her superior was Lieutenant Gjesp an older man who spent much of his time all day napping. It was clear the tiny fort there was just kept functioning with little risk of attack only there to serve as a staging point if for some reason it might be needed. Sure, she would be safe there but what kind of life was that? Suri was quick to try and push to get transferred somewhere else though her requires were always denied. She tried even to contact Saint Ferid who would check up on her regularly though he often brushed it aside as simply the way things were. One year, seven months, and three days passed living on the dull island barely able to get a reaction at all on Gjesp with her pranks and trying her hardest before she finally got her way out and pestering the Marines and Saint Ferid for a way out wanting to venture out with a crew and serve as a direct force for good for the Marines. That was the day she finally got a response.
  
  The higher ups contacted her, seeming rather hesitant over the den den mushi. It seemed as if someone higher up the food chain had her about her idea and had decided to give her a chance. She would get a small crew of Marines together to act as a much more mobile independent ship. They would travel from island to island checking in on the various islands helping them with any issues that might be going on. They were to act properly and within the rules of the Marines and ultimately required to follow under the orders of HQ should they be tasked to do something. Without any hesitation Suri eagerly accepted! Now it was time to finally get her chance to sail the seas doing good for the citizens and having some fun along the way! Maybe she would even get that Officer's coat they seemingly kept forgetting to give her as well for the last few years?

• Weapons
  Shi and Eir
  Twin Wakazashi's with Shi being tinted slightly darker steel then Eir. The swords have a small little hook on both ends as if to be hung up or latched together though its more so cosmetic.
  
  Equipment
  Scissors and Hand Mirror
  A small pair of scissors and a mirror Suri carries on her 'just in case'. They are there for emergencies to quickly fix up her hair on the rare occasion using her Devil Fruit she ends up using it on her hair causing it to grow out oddly as a way of fixing up any little imperfections she has. While not as much of an issue as it had been in the past, she still likes it just in case.
  
  
• 
  Combat Role: Unpredictable Agile Rogue
  
  Fighting Style
  Suri's key to combat is to be both quick and resourceful. She tends to like to throw her opponents through a loop using rather odd techniques to throw an opponent off with her devil fruit in order to create an opening to attack whether with her short swords or feet.
  
  Strengths
  Hard to Predict
  If there is one thing Suri is, its great at tossing things together. She will often attack in strange ways whether directly or through the use of her fruit to catch an opponent off guard.
  
  Dexterous
  Her time training and being stuck on an empty island has only helped to sharpen up her agility. She is ambidextrous and rather slick with her weapons. She can do many acrobatic maneuvers both useful and questionably so.
  
  Martial Artist... of Sorts
  Suri is able to fight not only with her blades but also with her fists and feet. While not the most refined fighting style she has plenty of tools to fight back even if some might be on the more sketchy side as far as techniques go.
  
  Unusual Utility
  Wool is great for many things. Her wool can be used in order to help cushion a fall or a blow if used in time and the right amount. It provides a source of warmth or even some cover as needed.
  
  Weaknesses
  Light Ranged Hitter
  While her Devil Fruit gives her some potential to attack from longer ranges, wool isn't exactly a very hard hitting material even if used in full force. She is better off using it to try and act as cover to get close.
  
  Wool can be detrimental
  While the wool from her fruit has the potential to aid her in combat, it also inadvertently can aid an opponent. The wool can very easily help to hide where foes are from herself and allies. While she can feel when the wool while connected to herself is touching something it is far from completely accurate and when sheared loses all its sense of touch.
  
  Unrefined Fighter
  Despite being trained by a rather skilled Rear Admiral, Suri tends to like to fight with her own style of fighting. Any martial prowess she does carry over is often accompanied by much less refined techniques. While they can be benefitial to catch an opponent off guard, it leaves many of her forms of attack ripe to be exploited by a skill martial artist.
  
  Impulsive
  Suri has a bad habit of acting before thinking things through. She isn't an idiot, though she doesn't tend to think things through and will try an idea out without really thinking things through simply improvising on the way to accomplishing it. This can easily put her in risky situations unintentionally she could of easily avoided. She can also be rather easily provoked with enough push to act recklessly.
  
  Vulnerable to Water/Seastone
  As a devil fruit user, Suri becomes weak when submerged in water and is unable to swim.
  
  
• 
  Skills
  Acrobatic
  Subpar Cook/Housekeeper
  Pranking
  
  
  Devil Fruit: Ūru Ūru no Mi (Wool Wool Fruit)
  A special paramecia devil fruit that gives the user the ability to turn into and create wool from their body. The user has full control over the wool until it is 'sheered' from her body. The wool color matches the user's natural hair color.
  
  Abilities
  Wooly Wool Bag
  Suri quickly will expand out her wool from her body to enveloper in a wool ball in order to cushion an impact such as walling crashing into something. While she tends to go for a more scatter shot approach she does also use it aimed in a specific direction and has a more modified version to help catch others next to her with her as well.
  
  Wooly Boppers
  Suri creates a layer of thick wool from her hands enveloping them fully extending out a foot in diameter extending out the same distance forward with the end being flat (a cylinder like shape). This allows Suri to strike a foe lessening the blow to some extent in order to minimize the damage done.
  
  Wool-nami!
  Suri creates wool from her body typically from her arms sending it out in a thick wave like stream. The wool is able to be rushed forward its direction controlled by Suri in order to cover an area in wool or attempt to 'drown' enemies in wool. Not a super damaging technique though it does a good just potentially knocking foes off their feet and potentially even restraining some, or just simply creating cover.
  
  
• 
  A little bit of a lie...
  When it comes to telling where she came from, Suri will often try and dodge the question. If pressed enough she will often fumble together some made up island and create some story about it. She primarily does this due to Saint Ferid insisting on her keeping quiet about it. She won't mention anything about Mary Geoise, granted most of her actual experience there was inside a World Noble's Mansion not getting to see all that much of the city as a whole even when being snuck out of the city.

Silas Rotherwood​

Age: 33
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Rank: Seaman Recruit
Crew Position: Intelligence Officer

• Personal
• Background
• Items
• Combat
• Abilities

• 
  Height: 7'1 without the hat.
  Birthday: (12/12)
  
  Appearance
  Silas is wrapped from head to toe in bandages covering his severe burns, on which is drawn a terrifying face. He wears a black cape and hat with a feather tucked in.
  
  
  Personality
  Silas, contrary to his appearance and reputation, is a kind and pure-hearted gentleman, whom other than criminals wouldn’t hurt a fly. The sort of man who saves old ladies from trees and helps cats cross the street. He wants to be seen as a kind force for good rather than an anti-hero, but due to his appearance and fighting style he has been unable to shake it off. He has become incredibly shy, which is often interpreted as being aloof and untrusting.
  
  
  Notable Quirk
  -Silas doesn't like his scary appearance, and it has lead him to become embarrassed and shy. He doesn't change his look because it was designed by the kids of his hometown, to whom he is idolized as a badass hero, (Which doesn't fit well with his personality) and he doesn't want to break their hearts.
  
  
  Motivation
  Like many Marines, Silas joined up after his hometown was attacked by pirates. During the attack, he lost his florist shop and he was severely burned. This made him at first want to make his home town a safer place but expanded to making the world a safer place.
  
  
  
• 
  
  Home Island
  Thriller Bark, West Blue (Since Moria doesn't exist in this universe, it was never converted into a ship)
  
  Background
  His home island was raided by the Firebeard Pirates. Despite trying to reason with the pirates and negotiate peacefully on behalf of the other villagers, he was horrifically burnt and his home burnt down too. When he awoke he found himself transformed into a disgusting monster, unfit to live a normal life. Despite the villagers still accepting him with open arms and not giving a damn how he looked, a rift opened in his heart and filled with a desire to make his home seas a safer place. Whilst he was asleep in the hospital, the local children got to work figuring about how to dress him up in an attempt that he could lead a normal life, and he woke up much to his shock as you now see him. It was a heartwarming gift, but not one that would change his mind about leaving.
  
  So he left and became a bounty hunter trying to make the area around his town safer, but eventually realized that the whole world was suffering and that he couldn't solve its problems alone. Realizing this, he joined up with the Marines, offering valuable information on several pirate crews as joining gift, impressing the higherups. However, despite already having moderate experience from working as a bounty hunter and his information gift, his refusal to change his appearance to standard Marine uniform, coupled with his easily misinterpreted awkwardness lead to him being labeled as rebellious and being transferred to Misfits.
  
  
  Relatives
  Mr and Mrs Rotherwood. Silas' parents, who are both healthy and well on Thriller Bark. He writes to them weekly. They want him to come back home, settle down, and rebuild his florist shop.
  
  Thriller Bark villagers. Silas regards every member of his home island as an extended family member. His home is his treasure. I considered writing out a short line on notable villagers but figured it would only bog this down.
  
  
  
  
• 
  Weapons
  Scythe
  Silas wields a huge scythe. It doesn't have a name.
  
  Equipment
  As a responsible adult, Silas always makes sure to carry useful items on his person. This includes A coiled rope, a length of bandages, a swiss army knife, a black Den Den Mushi, a pair of binoculars, a notebook, and lastly but most importantly a book of conversation starters.
  
  
• 
  Combat Role: Agile Glass Cannon.
  
  
  Fighting Style
  Silas on the battlefield is a whirlwind. A scythe is not a common weapon, so few opponents are prepared for the way that it moves, this combined with Silas' speed creates a dangerous and unpredictable foe.
  
  Strengths
  Adrenaline Rush
  Silas doesn't have a lot of stamina, so his fights are more about going all out as quickly as possible
  
  Stealth
  For someone you'd expect to stick out like a sore thumb, Silas is surprisingly good at stealth. Due to the desire to not be noticed in every social situation he encounters, Silas has become an expert at hiding. On the streets, he is just a leper, in the countryside a Scarecrow. However he prefers to stay out of sight altogether.
  
  Effective Striker
  Silas' scythe and speed allow him to make fast big attacks.
  
  Weaknesses
  Vulnerable.
  His whole body is one big injury waiting to reopen.
  
  Stamina
  After being badly burnt, Silas lost his sweat glands. One of the great features of the human body, sweat glands allow humans to easily reduce their temperature. This is why humans have even greater stamina than that of a horse. Without sweat glands, Silas overheats every time he physically exerts himself and tires quickly. With the extremes characters are pushed to in One Piece, there is a high likely hood at some point he will spontaneously catch fire.
  
  Big attacker
  The counterpoint to effective striker, he's not so great at quick successive attacks, so he's more vulnerable between strikes.
  
  
  
• 
  Skills
  Floristry
  As a former florist, he knows a lot about flowers. This isn't often useful however.
  
  Underworld Knowledge
  His time as a bounty hunter brought him close to the Criminal Underworld. As a seedy-looking character, he easily finds seedy places and has learned how to fit in and not draw attention. This ability to gather information from the Underworld is what got him the position of intelligence officer.
  
  Lookout
  Silas can spend hours pretending to be inanimate but maintaining surveillance.
  
  Abilities
  Silas hasn't caught on to the trend of naming attacks yet.

  Personality
  A young woman with the spirit of a crotchety old grandpa, Merryn is independently matured to the point of being slightly misanthropic. To Merryn most humans are stupid, lazy and greedy and paradise is anywhere they are thin on the ground and Nature is still in charge. A big reason for this contempt towards her fellow man might be because most people just don't see things the same way she does. Most people don't see past the obvious to read between the lines and interpret the sinister machinations of the powers behind the scenes, most people don't even know the world government is secretly run by shape shifting reptilian aliens! How can anyone reasonable be expected to get along with crazies like that? Still Merryn's contempt is not total, for the few people who manage to earn her respect she's an incredibly loyal friend, the kind who will help you move or help you hide a dead body depending on the situation. After all when the world is out to get you a good friend is worth their wait in gold.
  
  Notable Quirk
  Rabid Conspiracy theorist: believes the world government is run by shape shifting reptiles.
  
  Enthusiastic prepper and survivalist, preparing for the end of days.
  
  Motivation
  Merryn fervently believes the end times will soon be upon us. She joined the marines to gain access to valuable training; save money for supplies and meet comrades worthy of inviting into her bunker to ride out the apocalypse with.
  
  
• Home Island: Kalasco Island: A large, snowy, heavily forested frontier island home to harsh conditions and dangerous wildlife. Kalasco's main exports are furs from the previously mentioned animals so most of the inhabitants are hardy, self sufficient hunters and survivalists with the island possessing little in the way of urban development. Because of its ruggedness and isolation the island tends to attract people who care little for oversight and the island is something of a hotbed for anti government conspiracies.
  
  Background
  Merryn grew up as the daughter of a single father, a hunter who raised his daughter to shoot, survive in the wild and never, ever trust anyone wearing a suit. Phil Cooper was a hunter by trade, but his real passion was spreading what he believed to be the truth about the world government so much of his free time was spent printing and distributing pamphlets outlining his various theories to the masses. Fortunately for the senior Cooper the vast majority of his theories involved shape shifting reptiles, inter dimensional demons and archaic tax law arguments most of which were so outlandish that the government didn't care enough to actually arrest him. In fact probably the only person who believed Phil Cooper's theories was his daughter, who absorbed them all with rapt fascination.
  
  As she grew up Merryn learned more and more about how to survive and thrive in the wild, but she also learned more and more of her Father's bizarre theories and eventually came to one conclusion: the world would end one day. The World government had sinister plans to depopulate the planet and escape into the next dimension with their demonic masters and the masses were too blinded by ignorance and mainstream propaganda to rise up against them. With that in mind there was only one thing to do, prepare to survive. When she turned 18 Merryn packed up her belongings and left her home island to join the marines. Not only would she be able to save her salary to commision her very own bunker, Merryn reasoned that marine training would come in hand during the end times and she might meet some skilled and likeminded folks worth bringing back to survive with her.
  
  Merryn at first did well in the navy. Her background meant she was already fit, strong and a crack shot and she didn't mind the discipline, but a few years into her career some of Merryn's fathers pamphlets were discovered by her superiors. It was so much that the navy become suspicious of her being a traitor or terrorist or something, in a way it was worse. Merryn instantly became a laughing stock, a well known local on the base she was stationed at with people constantly laughing behind her back or directly poking fun at her for her "crazy" father. Things came to a head when Merryn got into a fight with several fellow marines after they pushed their luck a little too far and soon after she was transferred to the misfits as a punishment.
  
  Relatives
  Will Copper: Merryn's Father, a reclusive old survivialist and conspiracy theorist who makes and distributes pamphlets to spread his outlandish beliefs. Crazy but tough as hell.
  
• Weapons
  
  Life: A large, well kept hunting knife: It is mostly used for utility rather than direct combat but Merryn is skilled enough to at least put up a fight with it if cornered
  
  Liberty: Merryn's side arm, a custom made, magazine fed semi automatic pistol. In exchage for its superior rate of fire the pistol uses some complex mechanisms and thus requires expert maintenance to keep it running.
  
  Pursuit of Happiness: Merryn's rifle: A large calibre, bolt action rifle capable of highly precise, long range fire . Like her pistol Merryn's rifle is complicated for anyone else to keep in good working order but in Merryn's hands it is a reliable and deadly weapon.
  
  Pipe Bombs: Homemade explosives that release a nasty wave of shrapnels when detonated, Merryn usually keeps a few of these on hand for when a rifle just wont quite get the job done. They can also be rigged as traps, to detonate according to a timer or trip wire.
  
  
  Equipment
  
  Bug out Bag: A backpack full of emergency survival supplies in case the apocalypse suddenly hits: It features a light sleeping bag, a coil of rope, a harmonica, preserved food, a basic first aid kit, a cooking pan, a folding shovel, a couple rolls of wire and a spare change of clothes.
  
  
• 
  Combat Role: Long Range Specialist
  
  Fighting Style
  Merryn primarily fights as a sniper, laying down fire from afar to cover her allies' advance or pick off key targets. Merryn's background as a hunter also allows her to perform well in recon or guerrilla type roles as well, she's skilled at moving stealthily to sneak up or around enemies when necessary.
  
  Strengths
  Skilled Marksman: Merryn is a crack shot, though her weapon sacrifices some accuracy for automatic fire she's still precise enough to hit her mark in most situations and she can handle ship cannons skilfully as well.
  
  Sneaky: Merryn is reasonably stealthy, allowing her to get into a good sniping position or safely fall back before being cornered in close range.
  
  Tough: They raise 'em tough in Kolasco, Merryn might not be the strongest or the fastest but she can outlast em all and keep on kicking, her game is survival after all.
  
  Weaknesses
  Limited close combat capabilities: Merryn doesn't excel in hand to hand combat: she can fend someone off with her knife to some extent, but a specialist will be able to exploit its lack of range and her unexceptional physical strength and agility.
  
  Limited Ammunition: Merry needs to make every shot count because she can't afford to waste any: she makes her own ammunition for her custom weaponry so her supply is always somewhat limited.
  
  Poor Teamwork: Merryn prefers to work alone, although she's capable enough of exploitin opportunities others create she's less good at communicating or planning with people: best to give her a specific job and leave her to it.
  
  
• 
  Skills
  Tinkerer: Merryn is good at fixing, maintaining and even modifying all kinds of devices and weapons, especially fire arms
  
  Hunter: Merryn has hunted all her life: If there's animals around she can track, trap, shoot and skin them and many of these skills can be applied to humans too should the need apply.
  
  First Aid: Merryn has a decent grounding in first aid, although she's pretty far from a doctor she can patch you up and even knows how to gather useful medicinal herbs and apply them.
  
  Harmonica player: The harmonica, being rugged and highly portable, is the survivalists preferred instrument and Merryn can bust out a few tunes every now and then.
  
  
  
  
  Abilities
  
  Ignition shot: A bullet fired at a pipe bomb, which is either thrown or placed before hand, which detonates the explosive at precisely the right moment to inflict maximum damage.
  
  Slash and Burn: A combo attack whereing the user simultaneously fires a handgun and slashes with their knife, a somewhat desperate but effective defence for a cornered sniper.

  Appearance
  
  Height: 6'5"
  Birthday: 01/01
  
  Personality
  Vivi is surprisingly casual despite her upbringing much to the dismay of her parents. She believes herself to be strong enough to eventually become Fleet Admiral causing her to sometimes get in over her head when she starts fighting. She doesn't hate girly things but prefers wearing things that are function over form. Despite her usually casual attitude she has a strong sense of justice wanting to protect every possible person even though she knows she can't save everyone. If someone was to be captured by evil pirate she would try to get them first and as quick as possible even if it means being obvious.
  
  Notable Quirk
  She can't help but add background music that suits her mood or situation
  
  Motivation
  She's motivated to bring her and her music to the ears of the world and for that to happen she wants to become fleet admiral
  
  
• Home Island: North Blue Mobile Marine Base
  A massive Marine Base on the North Blue, it was a ship with all the comforts of an island but with the mobility of a ship. It travelled to nearby islands to drop off and pick marines after duty
  
  Background
  Vivian grew up on a Marine Base, so she lived and breathed the Marine life as soon as she could walk and talk she had to help out around on the ship or she'd go hungry for the day. As she grew up eventually her parents started to train her in how to fight with her bare hands, it was just as brutal if not even more so than her usual work aboard the ship. Her love of music came from when they stopped at a little island called Bing Bong Island, the jaunt to the island opened her eyes to the world of music, buying a guitar she started to learn it. As soon as she was of age she agreed with her parents to be shipped off to be trained as a proper marine
  
  As she started her training it became immediately apparent that Vivi had an emotional problem, she was filled with rage when she got knocked down by a higher officer, she slammed them, not that it usually did any damage. The main reason why she wasn't kicked out, was that she was consistently in the top five. She was transferred over to the Misfits crew when she would just not shut up either singing or talking how she would reach the top and become Fleet Admiral or she would just not stop playing her guitar much to the dismay of both other recruits and superiors

• Weapons
  Righteous Thunder
  
  
  
  A red guitar and axe mix, it's made with a decent metal so that it's both playable and able to be used to smack pirates with. Other than that not real interesting
  
  Equipment
  
  Guitar Strings - extra strings of varying thickness in case one of her strings break during sea
  
  Metronome - Her mother's metronome, the last thing given to her before leaving for Marine training
  
  Polish - A tub of polish to keep her guitar all shiny.
  
  
• 
  Combat Role: Sneaky, Slamming Brawler
  
  Fighting Style
  Vivian's fighting style seems very forward mainly dodging peoples attacks and then returning the favour by slamming them either with her devil fruit ability or the sharp sides of her axe. While she understands that most pirates need to be taken alive she loves going rough with others making sure that they can't get back up from multiple hits from her
  
  Strengths
  Tough - Despite her looks Vivi is one tough son of a bitch, able to get the shit kicked out of her and able to get back up continuing to fight on
  
  Sound Based - Her devil fruit attacks are invisible to the naked eye as it's all about amplified sound that can blast people and damage them
  
  Strong - Vivi is surprisingly strong meaning that even without her axe she can do some decent damage to someone using her body
  
  
  
  Weaknesses
  Body Damage - Her quirk while versatile can strain her body a lot, using it too long can damage her hearing even to the point of bleeding, sore throat bad enough to render her temporarily capable of speech and hand cramps so bad that she can't form a fist.
  
  Short Fuse - Vivian has a shockingly short fuse getting really worked up in a fight often looking control of herself and focusing on whatever pissed her off
  
  
  Close Ranged - while her Devil Fruit does allow some range however like every other sound the effect lessens the more it travels, leaving her mainly as a close range fighter. This also makes it so that she is basically useless against snipers and such

  Devil Fruit: Oto Oto no Mi, Sound Sound Fruit
  Vivian's Devil Fruit has made her an Amp person, by making sounds with her body, yelling stomping, etc and this includes using her her guitar, when she activates the fruit, yellow lightning runs through her body after that point she becomes a living amp, by making noise she can redirect it so that it's so loud it can blast a person back or hurt them. When redirecting it she can use any part of her body to release the increased sound, usual she uses her mouth, hand or a finger for a more concentrated blast

Hazama
​

Age:
25

Race:
Human

Gender:
Male

Rank:
Seaman First Class

Crew Position:
Swordsman, Temp. Boatswain, Tailor

• Personal
• Background
• Items
• Combat
• Abilities
• Fluff

• 
  Appearance
  Hazama is a lean man of rather scruffy appearance. His hair is often in a mess, though one can argue that he does try his best by tying it into a ponytail in occasions that it grows too long, and he sports a little stubble of a goatee on his chin. His appearance is almost humorously disheveled, even in the most cleanest of pressed suits, though one can attribute that to his awful smile and his leering eyes.
  
  Height:
  177 cm
  
  Birthday:
  31/07
  
  Personality
  Hazama is a man who doesn't seem to be looking for much in life. So long as he gets into scraps, with pirates or otherwise, he's happy enough. To that end, Hazama is a fairly well-behaved man when he tries, but is often very sarcastic, sharp-tongued and abrasive towards others. He is naturally like this to his own family, and is especially so to his younger sister and people he is much closer to, indicating that his strangely insufferable behaviour is one of affection. Or perhaps, he knows that the people who are close to him are patient enough to understand or are actually amused by his behaviour. He isn't without tact, however, and knows when exactly to keep his mouth shut. He is actually quite adept at reading the room's atmosphere.
  
  Notable Quirk
  He has the worst unsmile and the most terrifying unlaugh. The former makes him look as if he is glaring and twisting his expression in hatred of the person in front of him, and the latter sounds like a madman's cackle. It isn't his fault, and he doesn't deliberately do it, but he can't seem to kick the habit.
  
  Motivation
  He has no dreams of rising up in ranks, nor is he interested in the vaunted idea of 'justice' that the Marines claim to have. Hazama is a simple man- he wants to fight people with swords and see the world of swordsmen for himself. Being part of the Marines increases his chances and protects him from the consequences, so it's a win-win.
  
  
• Home Island:
  Harman Island: An unassuming island with a rather advanced city port. Merchants and traders often play with their wares here. Extensive Marine protection as well as a well-armed milita guards the place from the unsavoury kinds that may visit the place. With some fair fortune, the governor of Harman Island enjoys good relationships with the staying Marine force, and their combined military might keeps invading forces away.
  
  Background
  Hazama grew up with a healthy dose of stories from his father's time at sea as a Marine, of legendary Marines, as well as pirates that wielded the sword as if it were an extension of their bodies. Though the stories were meant to frighten him to behaving well as a child, Hazama instead took an interest to these swordsmen, which grew into a desire to face these legends in battle himself. He took up practicing with a sword, and eventually adopted his father's style as his own after watching him execute drills with his colleagues in the militia. Noting his talent for watching and learning, Hazama's father decided to train the boy properly. Though he tried to dissuade the boy from the path, there was nothing that was going to stop his child, that much he realised.
  
  The least he could do was to make sure that he didn't join the wrong side.
  
  Out of his father's insistence, Hazama joined the Marines, where he cared little for the discipline. Through ability alone, he pushed through the ranks, though his attitude did not earn him favours, and promotions were sparse. His inability to respond well to orders earned him, instead, much ire from his superiors, and he was juggled amongst many divisions before finally, after a long while, upon his promotion to Seaman First Class, he was tossed onto the MISFITs to use as they saw fit. Throw him at the pirates, throw him at hooligans, throw him into the sea, the higher ups didn't really care. As long as he was part of MISFIT's problem, he wasn't theirs.
  
  
  Relatives
  Hariette: Sister to Hazama. Five years younger than Hazama. She operates her mother's store alongside her. The better weaver of threads of the two siblings, Hariette is an up and coming master who can create dresses that bedazzle the eyes.
  
  Kazama: Father to Hazama. Ex-marine, and a swordsman who trained Hazama to become the one that he is now. A little stern but ultimately understanding of his children. He now acts as a member of the town militia.
  
  Juliette: Mother to Hazama. A tailor by trade. Known for her needlework and her nimble hands, she taught both Hariette and Hazama her trade when they were young, hoping that her children might take over her work. Thankfully for her, one of them took the lessons to heart. She doesn't mind Hazama's choices in life, but does wish that he would stop scaring the customers away whenever he came home.
  
  
• Weapons
  Kagemori: A Ryo Wazamono katana. Sister sword to the Yubimono. Notably no different from its partner.
  
  Yubimono: A Ryo Wazamono katana. Sister sword to the Kagemori. Distinctly unrecognisable from its twin.
  
  
  Equipment
  Needle
  Spools of thread
  Cloth: May or may not be available. He has the standard issue cloth that can be used to repair the sails. If someone wants a new costume made for them, they should procure their own materials. He doesn't work for free, and he's already doing the design and adding on accoutrements for them. The least they could do is fetch some cloth for him.
  
  
• 
  Combat Role:
  Close-range specialist
  
  Fighting Style
  Surprisingly very pragmatic and orthodox. Hazama doesn't seem to favor any flashy or remarkable moves, but makes up for it by being very reliable and consistent with his fluid movements, parries, and ripostes. He dual wields his katanas for most occasions, for more overall attacks, but favouring lighter strikes. He can, however, switch to a single sword stance, favouring stronger, singular strikes. He is also known for his ability to mimic styles and unique attacks by other swordsmen, though to a less effective extent.
  
  Strengths
  His boring, but practical styles can lock down stranger, more unorthodox styles simply by virtue of not exposing too much of his weaknesses for the sake of being flashy.
  
  He strikes a fairly equal balance between power and speed, and can choose to focus more on either by switching between his single sword style and his dual wielding style.
  
  Hazama is quite nimble and quick-footed, and is quite slippery when he wants to be, darting this way and that.
  
  His good command over his stamina allows him to outlast most that burn through theirs.
  
  
  Weaknesses
  His range only extends as far as a step and a sword's reach. Kiting him from a distance is a very reasonable strategy if one is fast and nimble enough to avoid him as he chases his opponent around.
  
  He only has one actual approach as a swordsman, and that is head on. He lacks the ability to remain stealthy for long periods of time, and is very bad at espionage.
  
  Switching between styles leaves him momentarily defenseless, as he shifts between them. This is most noticeable when he switches from Fang and Claw to Broken Horn. There are less openings the other way around, but a sharp eye and sharper movements can still capitalise on it.
  
  His favouring of two distinct styles makes him somewhat of a jack of all trades, but a master of none. He seems to improve on this to become a master of both trades.
  
  
• 
  Skills
  Handicraft: As the de facto tailor and boatswain (until further notice), Hazama has a gift of uncanny ability with a thread and needle, and some cloth. He claims it's nothing, and is purely just instinct and some practical application of what his mother taught him when he was young, but he can craft some pretty nifty looking threads for the crew, and can, by extension, repair and maintain the sails.
  
  
  Abilities
  Demon Dance: Fang and Claw: Hazama's dual-wielding stance. This stance favours quick, multiple slashes, and focuses on dodging, sidestepping, and punishing over-aggressive opponents. There is less focus on defense in this stance, and necessitates that the practitioner uses their agility to pressure and tire out their opponent.
  
  Demon Dance: Broken Horn: Hazama's single sword stance. This stance favours steadier, stronger blows. Hazama is also more willing to block and parry in this stance. The stance adopts strong, sweeping blows that can knock opponents off guard, but lack the mix-up potential that Fang and Claw have.
  
  Learning: Hazama is a savant when it comes to swordplay, and is able to understand the basics and concept of another swordsman's unique attacks and styles by watching them for a short time. At his level of skill, he bastardise and retool some of these to fit into his own styles, oftentimes becoming their own thing completely, different from the original.
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  Hazama is tone deaf. He's very defensive about this fact, but nonetheless refuses to prove that he isn't.
