[hider=Eddie Borden]
Name: Eddie Borden
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Appearance:
Dark skin, goatee. Keeps his hair closely shaved. Usually wears his goggles on his head, which has swappable lenses. He is on the short side, only 160cm tall, and quite thin.

Bio:
Eddie was born and raised in South Blue, on Oxford, an island known for its highly prestigious university. His mother worked as a scholar there, and from a young age, he received a thorough education from her such that he was able to enter the university on a scholarship. He was loyal to his mother, and studied there for the 4 requisite years of his course. However, as soon as his graduated, he told her that he was going to find his father, who had left them years ago.
He had spent his four years preparing himself for the journey. He had always been a tinkerer of things, and during the four years, he exploited Oxford University's resources to learn all he could learn about shipbuilding, and had already built himself a small sloop.
His father had left in search of the Lost Library, which was supposedly an ancient well of knowledge left by some long gone civilization. Most (including Eddie) believed that it was just a myth, however. Whatever the case, it was in the Grand Line, and Eddie would have to find some way to go there to find his father, even if it meant he would have to become a pirate.
At some point in his journey, he came across and ate the gacha gacha fruit, which has proved both a blessing and a curse.

Skills:
Gacha gacha Fruit
With great exertion of effort, can pop out a 'gacha' from his left hand, which contains a random item that may or may not help with the current situation. The item inside the gacha may be bigger than the gacha itself, and Eddie has seen items ranging from bombs to animated swords to kitchen sinks (literally, just one time). The items disappear at his will, or when he produces another gacha. Usually can muster one gacha every 10 minutes at the most, and maintain enough stamina to still run about and fight. If he pushes himself too much, he may be too tired to move, or even get ill from the exhaustion.

Combat Style:
Jack of all trades. He usually just uses whatever his gacha gives him. If it doesn't give him anything useful, he has his trusty flintlock pistol to rely on as a backup.

Personality:
He HATES gambling.
Generally a serious type; he will tell off children who behave badly. Unfortunately, he is not very good at interacting with children.
Often blames his bad luck for poor situations. In actuality, his luck is probably better than average; he is just a bit of a pessimist.

Role in Crew:
Engineer/Scholar
