I shall post my character 

Name: Natsu Hizuri

Age: 19

Appearance: [IMG]http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee206/Devilstudent/coolgirlpics/soulreaper.jpg[/IMG]

Crew Position: Lieutenant/Navigator

Power Type: Devil fruit along with being incredibly intelligent

Personality: She is normally laid-back and easy going until something she perceives as 'wrong' occurs and she strikes out like a cobra. She's sweet and kind until the wrong buttons are pushed and it's like the saying 'poking the slumbering dragon' literally...if she had but eaten the Mara mara no mi, she really would have been. But otherwise, she's not that bad a person and doesn't enforce her training on anyone, not even those that follow her even though she's not a captain.

History: To say that Natsu is a rebel in the marine's would be to say that Monkey D. Luffy had been a hyper ass kid. Blatantly obvious and clear to see as well as very endearing. She doesn't see the world in the strict black and white that the marine's have, since she was sent there at the age of twelve cause her aunt couldn't afford to feed another mouth much longer. She see's it in multi-hues and can often see the point in why some people go pirate and will and has often given the law breaker a chance to redeem themselves or to run as fast as they can if their crimes are too 'heinous' for any other marine to see beyond while she creates a well thought of distraction. She had even met the pirate king before he became the pirate king and was one of the many that had a extremely high bounty. It was when she was a little girl no more than five. He had actually listened to her and asked about her opinions when she had been told to shut up and to quit believing in her dreams. It was a simple one really. "I want the world to be a more safe place. For pirates and marines. To live in a world where they can co-exist in harmony." She had said and he grinned at her and said that perhaps one day it could happen. So she's been doing her best to do that ever since. She was at the base having risen up the ranks thanks to her innate ability to learn things at a quicker pace than any other applicant in the marines including her swordsmanship and strategic ability, and had been sent off to the wilds unexpectedly. It had been while she was starving within the first week of having not eaten anything that she found this strange swirly berry-like thing. She shrugged having ignored talk of devil fruits for she figured she'd never find one anyway cause of the way they were so sought after for either trade for a high amount of belli, or to be eaten for his/her self, and had eaten it. It had been the [U][B]WORST[/U][/B] thing she ever ate. EVER! And then she started to feel strange after, her breath coming out in puffs when winter wasn't supposed to be for another few months. She then began to figure out that she had indeed eaten a devil fruit and committed to figuring out how to control it because she didn't want to accidentally hurt someone, incorporating the abilities she learned into her fighting and learning what it could do, as well as how to make sure she didn't use it on accident. She came back to the academy three years later having turned eighteen after they had almost written her off as a lost case. She has since then only used her new found abilities once when a particularly nasty bunch of pirates wouldn't listen to reason, and so she had frozen the entire crew and its ship making it sink to the bottom of the ocean.

Devil Fruit: Hie Hie no Mi {chilly-chilly fruit}

Fruit Type: Paramecia

Abilities: being extensively trained in the marines, Natsu has specialized mostly in sword fighting with a Daito but can shoot a gun if absolutely necessary. Doesn't mean she enjoys using the fire arms. She can also cook relatively well from her days of taking care of herself by herself and having to learn especially when tossed into the wild as training.

Others: Her goal as stated is to have a world where not everyone's views are 'oh the pirates are nasty' and 'ooh what wonderful marines we have' because both sides of the coin can have equal amounts of horrible terrible people that should never have or obtain power. She wants to wake the world up to see who the real monsters are and to fight against them.
