To everyone, I believe I have just jumped the gun. The results that where handed down to me wasn't actually mine. Long story short, t'was a false alarm. I'm here to stay. And [b]Dawnstar[/b], when making techniques, avoid making them overly complicated. The one that you just came up with, seems were technical and requires a lot of steps; I doubt your enemies would just wait to get hit by that. You're all rookies. Also, avoid using your trait as being the pivot point of your technique. Use your fighting style, the trait is only there to act as a supplement. Its just a bonus that I gave away. Zoro never used his Power of Destruction as a principle of his techniques, it just served to strengthen them. [quote=Hillan]Hiya, room for one more? Any chance I would be allowed to do something.. Outside of the box? I'm thinking undercover Marine Captain as a rookie Pirate.[/quote]I don't mind this, as long as you know that you aren't any stronger than the other rookies and that you should prepare for Pirates who think they have a score to settle with you. [quote=DAWNSTAR]Well, you could make a captain or a Nakama. It doesn't really matter right now if you were late. The only difference between the two would be the quality of the sheet. A nakama doesn't have to have the best quality while a captain would have to have better quality. This means that you can give us a two or three paragraph history on a Nakama character but the Captain would have a three to five paragraph history. There is a lot more to tell about your character if he is a captain than if he is Nakama. You also have to consider fighting styles. A Nakama wouldn't have a fighting style like Santoryu but a Captain would be capable of doing that. Plus, some Captains the Marines have devil fruits while a Nakama isn't likely to. (Side note: A nakama is translated to crewmate in one piece.)[/quote]This was something that made me cringe. First and foremost, Nakama means colleague, compatriot, friend or comrade. Being dubbed as a mere "crewmate" seems like a poor way to put it. Anyway, each character is a character by itself and isn't any less of a character regardless of his status and or rank. The quality of one's CS should not be lessened just because he's not going to make a character worthy of being a captain. All of the Straw Hats had a sufficient backstory regardless of being the captain or not. [quote=DAWNSTAR] Can we agree that Vis's technique, Sutoraiku! Kaze no burēdo, wouldn't have defeated Moto Moto? Injured him, yes, but not likely to knock him flat on his butt. I just need a confirmation on this from everyone so that I can continue the posting for Vis.[/quote]That was a good joke my friend. Will try to get an update up as soon as I can.
