LeavesName: Doctor Wutong Ken
Alias: "Malpractice" Ken
Appearance:
Age:26
Position in crew: Doctor
Personality: Drunk. Very drunk. Constantly drunk. Some theorize that even if Ken quit the bottle cold turkey, he'd forever be in a state of inebriation as his very blood has become the essence of alcohol itself (yet to be proven). Most of the time he seems barely comprehensive, mistaking the words of others around him and falling asleep in utterly absurd and random places. He can occasionally be seen performing odd actions for no apparent reason, such as stitching his robes into his own skin, or contemplating a single banana for several minutes on end. He can be incredibly forward, speaking or acting without any thought or inhibition, and is quite the pervert. One of his go-to lines being, "You knowsh, I'ma doctor. Sssshould probly let me... Inshpect dat fer ya." However, once it is time to get serious, whether it be for a patient or for a fight, he's quick to focus, even through the beer goggles. He's not the most professional of doctors, but he'll get the job done with efficiency, even if you're screaming in pain because he just poured beer on your wound to disinfect it. Lastly, Ken dislikes talking about his past. He prefers to focus on the present, and the new memories he's to make with his crew. As such, he often pretends not to even remember that he has a past, much less what it actually is.

Background: Doctor Wutong Ken keeps his history close to the heart. To this day he hasn't told a single one of his crewmates a single detail about where he came from or what led to him stowing away on the ship inside of a wine barrel. Of course he does have a history, he just prefers not to remember it. He was born to a wealthy family of doctors on a small island in the South Blue. As he was the youngest of 6 children, all of whom had gotten their medical licenses, there was a great deal of pressure put on the baby of the family. He studied the profession as best he could to appease his family, but found his true passion was in fighting. Ken eventually found an outlet for his pent of frustrations in an underground boxing ring, where he'd travel to every month under the excuse of it being "for his studies." Technically he was studying the human body up close, just in taking it apart rather than fixing it.
It was difficult living up to his family's expectations while spending so much time training and fighting in illegal matches, but the thrill was worth it. At least it was worth it. One fateful day Ken returned to his home to find the estate had been razed to the ground, and all his family slaughtered. They had harbored a sickly pirate during this particular trip he had taken, seeing it as their duty to heal any injured they came upon. The marines saw it as aiding and abetting a criminal, and so they were found guilty of the pirate's same crimes under the rules of Absolute Justice. Ken cursed his absence. Had he been there, he might have made a difference. He might have been able to fight the marines off, or maybe save some lives, but it was too late. Everybody was dead. On that day, Ken began wandering and took up the bottle to drown his sorrows, and never looked back. One day he found himself inside of a wine barrel, which was loaded up onto a pirate ship. Ever since he accidentally stowed away, Ken has stayed with the crew under captain "Redcoat" Hunter.

Powers/Abilities:
- Unorthodox Medical Knowledge - Some would say Doctor Ken is a quack. Some say he should have his license taken away. Some aren't even sure he has a medical license to begin with. However, his treatments, as painful and unnecessary as they can be, actually work. He's not the world's greatest doctor by any stretch of the imagination (such as using his stethoscope on a patient's foot or pouring alcohol onto an open wound without the use of any anesthetic), but even when other experts are baffled he'll have something ready and up his sleeve. Just don't expect it to be pleasant.
- Unbelievable Fortitude - Due to constantly being drunk, and the incredibly stupid things he's done to himself in that state, Doctor Ken practically feels no pain. Whether it be his organs rupturing, extreme frostbite, or some other trauma, he can power through it without even noticing the injury. Note that this can be a tremendous weakness, as he can push himself beyond he limits of his body without noticing.
- Unending Thirst - Basically, Doctor Ken is a drunk. But not just any drunk, oh no, he's the world's biggest drunk. Basically, there is no such thing as "too many to drink" for this man. He has won a very considerable amount of money by showing up to drinking contests (already drunk, natch) and drinking everyone else under the table. That's when they get for underestimating his limitless thirst for alcohol.
- Drunken Boxing - When it comes time to prove his worth on the field of battle, Wutong Ken's fighting style is just as abnormal as his medical practice. He utilizes the style of the Drunken Fist to throw his opponents off balance and attack in deceptively creative and unexpected ways.
Techniques:
- Devil's Breath - Utilizing his addiction, Ken breathes right into the enemy's face. His horrid, rancid breath is so disgusting that it should put them off immediately, if not induce a fit of vomiting.
- Dragon's Breath - An extension of the above, Ken ignites his alcohol-laden exhalation with his ki, breathing out a stream of flames.
- Suture Trap - While dodging about in unpredictable ways, Ken deftly makes use of his sewing needle and stitching skills, sewing an opponent's clothes (or skin) to... Anything around. Other opponents, the ground, their weapons, whatever.
- Reverse Monkey Palm - Ken throws a punch, but it acts as a feint. Instead this momentum goes into doubling his torso forward while he brings up a foot to plant right in his opponent's face.
- Python Coil - A defensive maneuver. As an enemy approaches and attacks, he locks his elbow with theirs in a fluid motion, and throws them.
- Butt Press of Doom! - Ken swerves his body around while sweeping at his opponent's legs to knock them down. In the same motion, he allows himself to fall flat on his ass, right on their face. Usually followed up with a nasty passing of gas.
