Currently there are three people with DF.  Garret, the captain of the Shatterchrest who has the logia glass fruit. 


There is Cygnus who has the Operation fruit (Law's fruit) 


And Finally there is Sora who has the Lightning fruit.  However he doesn't know what it is and has yet to take a bite of it and hasn't considered eating for the time being.


Edit:  As for how you get it in the future I believe it will be random just like it was for gaining the fruits to begin with.  Though I'm not fully certain since that is in the future and us GMs are busy with the current arcs~

Glass logia? Never heard of that before, it sounds interesting. But it looks like the three DF's which are coming in play are very interesting already, I especially like operation :3 Versatality is nice with that DF. Also I guess you couldn't blame Sora, because there is always the chance of getting something useless and unless IC he already knows it is goro (In which I don't see why he wouldn't eat it) it would be a pretty hard decision to make out of free will unless he plans on using it to gain an edge in a situation that they would otherwise are at an disadvantage.


Also it's not exactly my main concern about when people get DF's because I don't really expect that to come for a while, but I was curious on how the system was going to work in terms of what the deciding factor is on what kind of devil fruit someone get's when they earn it or whatever.

Okay...I got my OC's bio up for anyone who wanted to check it out, but I'ma take a little rest for a bit and focus on my schoolwork for a while ~.~ Hopefully I can end up finishing it later on today though. If not it should be finished tomorrow.

 

[AllHailDago]

Ohhh, questions be popping from everywhere but I have another question or two in regards to characters with Devil fruits.


Who are the characters which posess devil fruits at the moment? And if there any characters with a devil fruit which one do they use?


My second question is one concerning getting a DF further down into the RP. It says that people can earn DF's etc, but my concern on the whole thing is how it'll work. When someone 'earns' a DF how is the decider for what devil fruit that person get's going to be? Is it going to be something random or will it be something that person is allowed to choose for themselves?


Hm, well I guess I'll keep that in mind and yeah I feel you xD  The whole reason I am asking the questions about crews is for that very reason. Considering there are three to choose from I want to make sure that whichever one he goes in that it both makes sense and fits with his character. I haven't really made an actual decision yet because none of the other Captains have described their crews yet. And speaking of which...


@DaughterofAthena & @AllHailDago


Hello you two~ If it's not too much trouble I was wondering if you'd be able to give me a quick runover your crews and what they are like etc? I wanted to get a feel of what all the crews are like so that I can decide which one I think Seiryu would best fit in.

The devil fruit thing was something we were going to discuss at length and would reward long time members for their loyalty and perseverance iirc. Beyond that we hadn't planned details because its not a real current matter of importance.


As for Garret and the Shattercrest Pirates. Well unfortunately I think many of the crew members may have dropped the rp. Which saddens me.


Garret Z. Allistair is the captain. He uses the glass logia, a DF I made (as all characters with fruits run by me do). He is a pretty happy go lucky guy. Creative and intuitive. Rather charismatic and good with people most of the time. Though he doesn't have much in the way of "book smarts" as he was raised on a pirate ship by his father the captain, and mother (an unschooled ex slave). So all he learned was the general knowledge of each position on the ship. Plus what the crewmates could teach him. He's not that tough, physically or emotionally. But his fruit and creativity makes him dangerous anyhow. He desires nothing to be Pirate King/Queen like the other two captains. No, he believes his father will be King. He simply wants to sail the seas and learn/explore with a trusted crew of friends. Garret is his name, any kind of adventure is his game. His ship is the Crystal Lotus  (or at least I think that's hat I named it). A medium sized vessel he got as his departing gift from his parents, along with his fruit. It's been enhanced repeatedly over the year he sailed alone. Many parts infused with or replaced by glass. Which should make it clear why he survived so long alone.


Hopefully I don't itches this descriptions too badly.


With him are (hopefully still) his navigator Ferra McKlinnen. An ex Marine Captain who killed her way out when she discovered the crew she was working for did slave work as well iirc). She's kinda abrasive and pessimistic seeming. But a quality strategist and strong fighter. Current holder of highest pc bounty at 40 million beli. @Pequeno Burraidh


Stacy Beauregard. His trusty shipwright, who as far as he's seen is a pretty alright lady. If a bit of a busybody. She can't stand to be not working. And takes real unkindly to those who undo her work. @DaughterofAthena


His cook, Kiyoko Rinne. A rather chill chef he met when he helped her protect a young girl who was trying to reach the Marines to escape from a rather cruel pirate captain that had impressed her into labor. @UdonIrvine47


Laura Ray Young, his swordswoman. Haven't seen much of her yet. Or maybe too tired to remember. @MidnightStar


Raine Braddock, the snake neck tribe quartermaster who desires nothing more than to be first mate. He seems to have taken a strong liking to Garret and wants to make him pirate king, as well as be his right hand. he doesn't seem to believe that Garret has no ambitions in that manner. He's rather submissive in his mannerisms. @Sullivanity


Last current actual member I believe. Wil D. Heart, cabin boy. Garret also knows little of him as his main interaction was seeing him jump into the street from a roof.... barefoot. Boom, crew offer. He's kinda scruffy and dirty, but Garret has a good feeling about him. @ChimpMan


Prospective members time. 


Raikou Kaminari and Shayden C. Wolfenhouzer are two members who were traveling on a different ship to the island our crew is bound for. But they were shipwrecked and are the only remaining survivors. Our crew is currently recovering them . They may join if they are still around and want to. @Raikou Kaminari @Silver Lightning Blade


Finally we have Yukihime Azalea White. A prospective member we may run into, if the player still wants to, on the island itself. Further details on the reason she's here are need to know only, hehe. She's hopefully destined to be the crew doctor. Also has my vote for prettiest pc. @Azure Sky

That is fair enough, well I have no qualms about waiting for when you guys are ready to bring out the information when the time comes; like I said earlier I was just curious because it was mentioned but not really explained upon. Also thankyou for giving me an extensive description of your crew it really helps with me grasping the idea of it, it's unfortunate that some of it's members went inactive and in normal circumstances I'd make my character work for the crew however I don't really see Seiryu having much to relate with most of them perhaps besides Ferra since she actually seems verrry similar to Seiryu already, and they would have a lot to talk about when they both hate the Marines (I'm guessing she hates the marines). However upbrining is different and with his goals I don't see him thinking that a Captain who just wants to sail and have a good time would be fitting for what his personal aim is. 


However throughout reading that the question also popped up in my head, how does the bounty system work? Because I still have more to add to his bio and there is going to be like another section or two which is going to basically explain his journey to wherever it is he is eventually going to meet the crew to give some history on that time-period and I plan on having him run into a little trouble during that period already. So I did plan on adding a bounty on the CS but wanted to know more about the whole thing first.

I am Dago, Fleet Admiral, and Chief Bounty Giver. All initial bounties are given me after I read cses. Increases are discussed by gms, but I tend to be the decider in it.

Well in that case it's probably best to just wait to add that until after I decide which crew he's going to join and write the rest of his bio, for now I added to the trivia, finished both character strengths and flaws as well as his personality section which I sorta made into a breakdown because I find it a lot easier that way. Only thing left is filling his fighting style section, deciding his crew and getting info on where abouts his bounty would be; assuming that he will have one.


Another question I have is what is the stance on NPC pirates and pirate crews? Are we allowed to do that? And if so what are the limits to these characters? I was sorta considering maybe making a few NPC's from the pirate crew I mentioned in Seiryu's bio.

Thats a sensible idea. When you happen to finish your cs entirely feel free to tag me. While I'd like to say I'm super attentive and such, I am often not. It will help me to get to the bounty at the quickest possible time.


As for players playing npc pirates and crews. At current thats as far as I am to know, not an option. You can describe and create ones in your backstory, so long as they aren't too world affecting, without GM go ahead. At current we GM's are controlling all npcs of importance to current events. In the future when individual characters have arcs centered around them, which is a gm idea we are all considering last i checked, it may be possible. But at current i would say dont expect pursuing that to be very likely.

Sure thing I'll make sure it's something I add to the CS once it's all finished. I'm aiming to get it done before I go to sleep tonight so hopefully I manage to get what I have to do around the house finished so I can focus on the character sheet again. It's unfortunate I didn't get the rundown of The Red Ribbon Pirates from Athena but I guess she's been busy or timezone differences have taken affect but if you have any knowledge on what they are like (You don't need to to go right down the individuals, a summary description would do) that would be extremely helpful in getting this done asap. And it was also give me an idea on where to end off the bio for Seiryu. 


Concerning the NPC pirates that seems fair completely fair enough by most standards and I like the system. Also the sound of having individual characters with arcs centered around them sounds pretty interesting but taking that this RP is going to resemble a lot of One Piece I never expected it to be something which we will reach quickly however I just like to clarify on these sort of things and if/when these arcs come into place, if it's allowed I wouldn't mind having at least one of the crews members pop in as an NPC. Buuuuut that's something that can be discussed when it actually becomes relevant to IC.

I can whip together at least a small partial list of all members if you give me like 10ish minutes. And she is in a timezone where it's, iirc, 2 am. She's an early to rise type so im assuming she definitely asleep at this time.


The individual arcs i mentioned were meant to focus on player characters and backstories and such. Like "so and so pc runs into the pirate crew who killed their mother, crew deals with that on an island" type deals. Just as a barebones example. 


But yeah, if you discuss with whichever gm your crew member ends up in you could likely ask to incorporate some personal stuff at some point. Im a fan of inference and allusion, so i have done things like that frequently already. Tiny mentions of possible events long into the future. It's my favorite thing!

That would be helpful and take the time you need. And yeah I guessed that was the case, generally around this time it's hard to find anyone online.


And yeah when you said that, I figured that is what you meant and I think the idea is interesting and there is always potential in those situations to make something cool out of what was already established. It's also a better chance for people to maybe add onto their character bio IC and it will help with getting to know them better cause even with my tendancy to look at everyone's character sheet I sometimes skip the bio. ~.~ And everyone wants their little moment every once in a while. Although One Piece in general done a pretty good job at that anyways.


Annnd as for the last statement I did intend on doing that as well as asking about other things because I am also big fan of the same things (Inference and allusion I mean), actually I sorta done a few in my CS already lmao.

 

[AllHailDago]

These are based off the current roster list, as it makes it quick and easy for me to do. Any new characters beyond this point are simply missing because im too tired to remember, and they arent on it. Sorry to those affected.


Scarlet Johanna Indigrid is the Captain. A rather crazily upbeat(and sometimes ditzy) woman with the desire to be the Pirate Queen. She has ties to one of the four Yonko of the rp, Captain Spades of the Spades Pirates. She stole a marine ship and set sail to find a crew to become Queen. She is fashion obsessed and hair obsessed. She has minimal if any actual combat training or capability. 


Jasper Pharos, First Mate. The first crew member Scarlet found on her search. He joined her a couple months prior to the beginning of the rp. He abandoned the Marines after his Mistress and commanding officer, as well as his only real maternal figure was killed by a pirate crew on the grand line. He seeks to avenge her, and tried finding them himself for a while before seeking out a new lady to serve under. He met Captain Spades and he pointed him to Scarlet. A Captain level combatant, rather smart, and a snappy dresser. He acts as both the first mate and butler aboard the ship. His outer demeanor or poise and precision masks a rather wildly violent, blood crazed side. (controlled by me)


Rena Hartwood. Navigator and iirc, reporter extraordanaire. She seeks to work aboard a ship that sails the ocean and conquers the Grand Line. She wishes to capture the stories of the world as they actually are, rather than how the media sensationalizes them to be. She is rather willing to do just about anything to get her story. And though she seems to act like she lacks compassion in some regard, recent actions reveal she actually cares much more about peoples lives than she lets on. 


Cletus T. Bass. Grumpy old man with a wicked pistol shot. He is the oldest member of the crew and the resident sharpshooter. He wanted to be a pirate in his youth but ended up pursuing other things until recent talk of the One Piece resparked his old desire to sail the seas as a pirate. I wouldn't be super surprised if he shot a fly's wing off. Both for the proof of skill, and cause it bugged him. Smokes a lot. 


Shae Laurel. A snow leopard mink and the crew doctor. An ex slave freed by the Marines in the first arc of the rp, he joined the crew when they left the island and passed through the marine blockade. Shy and submissive, he is in fact male despite his incredibly effeminate appearance. As one would expect of the doctor, he's always ready to hand out a remedy or patch up a wound. He is so shy he hasn't, as far as i can remember, spoken an actual word yet. He instead writes what he wants to say down and hands notes to people. 


Watanabe Wasabi. The cook of the Red Ribbons. His face is perpetually out of sight due to a combination of a huge rice hat and a mask. Despite this seeming subterfuge, he actually desires to raise his bounty and gain attention from marines. Though he has no intention of being captured though, as his attempt to raise attention of his actions and whereabouts are due to wanting to draw the Marines away from his home island. Thinking they will leave them alone because he is who they want. He uses a pretty neat boomerang as his choice weapon. 


Cygnus Albiero. Storyteller/musician. An unwavering optimist and the user of the Ope Ope no Mi. He's rather pacifistic a majority of the time, but will defend his friends if need be. Sometimes his optimism is self harming as it disconnects him from the reality of the situation at hand. Often in his own little world. 


Arlen Hakhassi. Fighter. Known by his title of The Leviathan on his home island. A title he earned by being the strongest warrior and proving it on his home island. He is tasked with protecting Nerissa Orta, the priestess of Aquarius while she travels the seas and tries to spread the word of Aquarius. He's found taking up this task was more interesting and difficult than initially expected. Especially after they both obtained bounties and joined a pirate crew.


Lastly, Nerissa Orta. Priestess of Aquarius. Ever faithful in the ocean deity Aquarius, she left her home island with Arlen to spread the word of her faith and bring others joy through Aquarius. Unfortunately she was mistakenly seen as someone trying to start a religious cult and uproot the goverment, so she received a bounty. When she searched for the mysterious map on the island of Mirstone she ended up meeting Scarlet and joining her crew. 


Apologies to anyone i botched in some manner.


Would you like me to describe all the Red Wave Pirates as well? I can!

Would you like me to describe all the Red Wave Pirates as well? I can!


@Sinister Clown

Well actually Peaceswore gave me a little rundown of that already so it's okay, thankyou for taking the time to write all of that for me xD  Oddly enough though, out of all the crews I feel that Seiryu would probably join the Red Wave pirates if anything for like two reasons. Even though Red Ribbon pirates seem to be missing a swordsman, I think that with his personality he probably wouldn't be able to follow a character like Scarlet; he would probably see her as just being spoiled. The second reason for joining the red waves instead is not really a good reason but more of a personal one depending on the circumstances of the rp and if the three crews will ever encounter each other; but Jason seems like a pretty ironic rival in a way since they have similar traits from the description you gave.


However, the fact that Shattercrest seem low on members I somewhat feel like I should add my character there - it would be just sad if that crew died due to inactivity of it's members the only problem with that is I don't really see how good reasoning could be made for Seiryu joining during the current arc. Whereas Red Waves makes things a bit easier for reasoning, the whole misfits attitude they have is something which Seiryu would be hard pressed not to join after getting convinced by the Captain.

However, the fact that Shattercrest seem low on members I somewhat feel like I should add my character there - it would be just sad if that crew died due to inactivity of it's members the only problem with that is I don't really see how good reasoning could be made for Seiryu joining during the current arc. Whereas Red Waves makes things a bit easier for reasoning, the whole misfits attitude they have is something which Seiryu would be hard pressed not to join after getting convinced by the Captain. 

Gotcha. Yeah, I'm the only gm involved in all 3 crew and as such tend to be reading into every character involved in the rp overall. Which is how i can go in depth on all crews like this cx ive also been inactive lately so doing this in depth help makes me feel better about my disappearance. Also, Jason? Do you mean Jasper?


Low on members indeed. I'd REALLY prefer it not go inactive. Especially with all the fun i have planned. But i don't want to push you to join a crew you don't think fits.

Yeah sorry I did mean Jasper I've been in a bit of a rush xD   As for the second thing you get, I'll let you be the judge since I plan on writing the bio which will end off from wherever he is going to end up with whatever crew he joins. I also think it's sad so maybe once I finish writing and you get the chance to read over it all (Since I guess that is what you do anyways xD) maybe you could come up with something concerning the current arc? I just find it a little hard is all.

Ah. No problem. I'll read it over. But perhaps you should wait to write the ending of your bio and decide until the other gms can weigh in on the subject?


What time is it for you?

It is close to 8pm. But I can wait until tomorrow for the other gms? It's just that I won't be able to get it done until later during the day when everyone is probably asleep again xD  I just edited the CS again and added his fighting style description but I intend on updating it when the IC moves along. I also deleted a bit of the bio I wrote to wait for the other gms but for future reference I intended on him having already encountered a pirate crew himself with a Captain of a bounty which I have yet to fully decide but he's not going to be anything over 80mil and not below 20mil. Again still deciding on that, however it's basically going to be me using Rabo as a mini antag for his bio which will end up destroying his ship after the conflict ends with Seiryu on top but in turn ends up being only to go so far until reaching the island which whatever crew he joins is going to be in; which is where his bio is going to end and I'll discuss the joining crew situation with the captain of the crew.

Yeah. It's 2 am for me and im likley to go to sleep now. So probably wait til they are on. Especially with that bit you're talking about with the antag. An 80 million pirate would be impossible for entire pc crews at the current moment, so beating them in your backstory..... a rather bit of a stretch. Anywho, im too tired to go on. Peacey and Athena will likely respond in the next two to four hours. As they are early birds and quick responders. I'll let them take things from here.

Well taking the highest and assuming that's what is going to happen isn't the case, reason I said that is mostly me trying to consider what the current 'level' everyone is on and sorta adapt with that, but considering it's West Blue isn't it generally more dangerous there? So depending on how strong everyone else is at the moment is going to be the deciding factor at least as far as I was concerned, so when I say from 20mil to 80mil I mean somewhere in between, this is purely taking from the fact Arlong was around 20mil and east blue was said to be weakest area and if I wasn't mistaken it also states that West blue is a lot more dangerous? Which would make sense considering it is close to the Red Line. Also taking the current OC with the highest bounty I was mostly considering making it lower than that, since they were really only playing the part of sorta forcing Seiryu to stop at the island and introduce him to IC. 


Buuut I'll wait for the other peeps. I'm going to be looking to head to sleep as well.

The devil fruit thing was something we were going to discuss at length and would reward long time members for their loyalty and perseverance iirc. Beyond that we hadn't planned details because its not a real current matter of importance.


As for Garret and the Shattercrest Pirates. Well unfortunately I think many of the crew members may have dropped the rp. Which saddens me.


Garret Z. Allistair is the captain. He uses the glass logia, a DF I made (as all characters with fruits run by me do). He is a pretty happy go lucky guy. Creative and intuitive. Rather charismatic and good with people most of the time. Though he doesn't have much in the way of "book smarts" as he was raised on a pirate ship by his father the captain, and mother (an unschooled ex slave). So all he learned was the general knowledge of each position on the ship. Plus what the crewmates could teach him. He's not that tough, physically or emotionally. But his fruit and creativity makes him dangerous anyhow. He desires nothing to be Pirate King/Queen like the other two captains. No, he believes his father will be King. He simply wants to sail the seas and learn/explore with a trusted crew of friends. Garret is his name, any kind of adventure is his game. His ship is the Crystal Lotus  (or at least I think that's hat I named it). A medium sized vessel he got as his departing gift from his parents, along with his fruit. It's been enhanced repeatedly over the year he sailed alone. Many parts infused with or replaced by glass. Which should make it clear why he survived so long alone.


Hopefully I don't itches this descriptions too badly.


With him are (hopefully still) his navigator Ferra McKlinnen. An ex Marine Captain who killed her way out when she discovered the crew she was working for did slave work as well iirc). She's kinda abrasive and pessimistic seeming. But a quality strategist and strong fighter. Current holder of highest pc bounty at 40 million beli. @Pequeno Burraidh


Stacy Beauregard. His trusty shipwright, who as far as he's seen is a pretty alright lady. If a bit of a busybody. She can't stand to be not working. And takes real unkindly to those who undo her work. @DaughterofAthena


His cook, Kiyoko Rinne. A rather chill chef he met when he helped her protect a young girl who was trying to reach the Marines to escape from a rather cruel pirate captain that had impressed her into labor. @UdonIrvine47


Laura Ray Young, his swordswoman. Haven't seen much of her yet. Or maybe too tired to remember. @MidnightStar


Raine Braddock, the snake neck tribe quartermaster who desires nothing more than to be first mate. He seems to have taken a strong liking to Garret and wants to make him pirate king, as well as be his right hand. he doesn't seem to believe that Garret has no ambitions in that manner. He's rather submissive in his mannerisms. @Sullivanity


Last current actual member I believe. Wil D. Heart, cabin boy. Garret also knows little of him as his main interaction was seeing him jump into the street from a roof.... barefoot. Boom, crew offer. He's kinda scruffy and dirty, but Garret has a good feeling about him. @ChimpMan


Prospective members time. 


Raikou Kaminari and Shayden C. Wolfenhouzer are two members who were traveling on a different ship to the island our crew is bound for. But they were shipwrecked and are the only remaining survivors. Our crew is currently recovering them . They may join if they are still around and want to. @Raikou Kaminari @Silver Lightning Blade


Finally we have Yukihime Azalea White. A prospective member we may run into, if the player still wants to, on the island itself. Further details on the reason she's here are need to know only, hehe. She's hopefully destined to be the crew doctor. Also has my vote for prettiest pc. @Azure Sky

Yep, still here mate.

 

[Peaceswore]

@Sinister Clown   You are more than free to join any crew of course so if you want to join Shatterchrest rather than the Red Waves' that's more than fine~    You should just go with the crew you want, they are low on members and could use more~  The Red Wave is the largest crew...I think?  At least tied with Red Ribbon (though I am almost certain one person has dropped since she hasn't posted in a long while) Either way! Sora would be more than happy to accept him in the crew since I don't think they have anyone with the title/position swords man~

@Sinister Clown First of all, my apologies for not being around to give you a rundown of the Red Ribbon Pirates. I think what Dago shared is quite appropriate though. As for deciding which crew to join, I feel inclined to point a few things out. Fate does not always carry your character to the crew that is the best fit for them. In fact, running into the crew that fits your character best almost seems to be too good to be true. Your character isn't going to get to meet all three and choose based on that so I honestly do not think that looking at where your character fits best is a good way to approach the situation. You're more than welcome to, but it doesn't feel right to me. Whichever island your character happens to be on determines what crew they run into. Take Stacy for example... she was originally in Kenji's crew (which doesn't exist anymore). Yet she HATED Kenji with a passion. The way the story was written, she didn't have a choice. It was get captured by marines, or join Kenji's crew. Would she have gotten along with him? Not at all. It would have been fun to write, though. 


I also feel it is important to note that crews will cross paths as the story progresses so it is quite possible that as your character meets another crew, they could jump ship. Stacy's probably going to try and convince Syrin to jump ship when/if she ever encounters him again. It is a viable option. 


Also, I'm just tagging a few people for Red Ribbon stuff. @Pequeno Burraidh and @vergil are you two still around and intending on continuing to partake in the rp? I haven't seen either of you in what feels like a very long while.

Sora is going to have ta go through hell to convince Syrin to stay on his ship and she is going to try and jack their only Navigator!?   See this is how wars are started...... I mean sure Sora won't hold Syrin against his will....but ya know....... Still mean......

Stacy has to have some friends. I wouldn't say that anyone on Garret's crew has quite achieved friendship with her just yet and she trusted Syrin more than she has trusted anyone else in a long time. And Stacy and Syrin kinda saved each others' lives.
