Tanso Tanso No Mi

[Aromancer]

<Tanso Tanso no Mi>

---

English Name:–
Coal Coal Fruit
Classification:–
Logia
Owned By:–
Nobody yet

---

Appearance:–
The Tanso Tanso no Mi is a dark, lumpy fruit that tastes exactly like charcoal, and yet somehow also worse. It's dry and peels easily, the peel crumbling off the fruit in a manner similar to coal. In fact, the only things differentiating it from an unusually large lump of coal is the fact that it does not burn and the swirly design that signifies the devil fruit, displayed prominently on a flat edge of the fruit.

---

Ability:–
As with all Logia, the Tanso Tanso grants the user the ability to create, manipulate, and become the associated element, in this case coal. The user can become/create/manipulate a coal cloud, a lump of coal, or with focus, transform any coal in the area into diamond. They can harden or soften the coal at will, as well as control it with their mind.


Weaknesses:– As with all Devil Fruit, contact with water will sap the user's abilities and strength. Additionally, while coal can be hardened into diamond, it cannot be controlled in diamond form; Tanso Tanso has no power over anything that is not explicitly coal. Likewise, the fruit is weak to fire, since it turns coal into charcoal and renders the user unable to control it.

So, we've got a few issues. Normally, since there is no user, I'd dismiss this outright or just mark it as a WIP until such a time as a user was determined so the Fruit could be paid for, but I think going over the issues might be helpful regardless.

• Name
  So, right off the bat, "Tanso" wouldn't work for the name of a Devil Fruit - despite looking like it should be two syllables in English, it is actually three, due to the "n" being its own syllable.
• Ability
  Unfortunately, as this would be a coal Fruit, the ability to harden the user's coal into diamond - even with the weakness of losing control over the diamond - would not work as a base ability of the Fruit. It could potentially be an Aspect, or the basis of an Overdrive, but that isn't really something that would work as something built into the basic capabilities of the Fruit itself. Additionally, on the note of controlling the substance "with their mind", that isn't really how Logia abilities function. The closest example would possibly be Katakuri's shown ability to turn his surroundings into mochi, which he can then remotely control, but that is a facet of his Awakened Special Paramecia, not a basic capability of his Fruit.
• Concept
  At the end of the day, the biggest issue with this Fruit is that it goes against our rules - in particular, in the Restricted Abilities thread, you'll find a note about "Organic Logia". Sadly, coal is an organic substance - it consists mainly of carbonized plant matter.

All together, I'm afraid that these issues make this Fruit unable to be approved, even if you sorted out the matter of adding a user who could pay for it. For these reasons, this Fruit is denied.
