Devil Fruit Discussion (My Version)

[shisha]

Well its that time again Folks, time to talk about the current Devil Fruits and / or rules attachted to them. You guys are free to ask questions about these things, post as you see fit. Public thread and all that jazz. Just keep in mind the normal rules for threads, no cursing and or horrible language. That includes French, i hate the French. Bunch of Frog eating s.... off topic, moving on...

This issue i thought we could talk about the thread i made back in the day. The Banned Fruit list.

In my opinon that thread needs revamping. After all i made it a long time ago, things have changed. The outlook on fruits and even the possible ones have changed with it. Fruits have popped up in the series that i stated could never arise. And as such i feel the thread needs amending. Many a time i have had members send me Private messages asking about the thread, more so why things are banned when they exist in the series. I can't change it myself, being a normal Mortal member, so i ask you guys for your thoughts.

On the subject of Devil Fruits that may be banned. I've been wondering for a great deal of time, our standing on Noro Noro style fruits. I know its a negitive in our eyes, but just why i Don't know. The same with many other fruits that have popped up in the past. Most noticably a fruit of mine that, when the mere name is uttered, sparks debate and duels to the death in classic star trek style arena's with battle weapons and bad fight music. And that would be the Cell Regeneration fruit. A long name yes, but an interesting idea. As the fruit would allow the user to regenerate damaged or destroyed areas of their cellular structure at a fantastic rate. Which when you read it sounds overpowered, but in my eyes that the problem. Moderation. Now of course the user couldn't regrow severed limbs or reattach them, the latter maybe possible if approached VERY Carefully. In my eyes the fruit would allow things such as cuts and blunt physical trauma to be healed much faster than normal. Keep in mind though, this fruit would be for Comic Relief purposes more than an actual fruit. The idea of a character that seems to Survive everything (Left for dead at the end of a thread, back again perfectly fine in another to annoy you) sounds rather funny to me.

Well I can whole heartedly support your desire to make deadpool, I will say that regeneration on a whole is a rather touchy subject, and with good reason.

If it were me, I'd build a regeneration fruit such that it only Speeds up regeneration, not enhancing it. Meaning a person can recover from wounds faster than normal, but they can obnly recover in a manner that a normal human could. Normal people dont regrow limbs, for example, so neither could this hypothetical regeneration fruit.

Well I think your banned fruits thread should stay how it is. I mean, with how a lot of these fruit abilities could be use in an rp is just abusive, even if certain fruits you thought would never happen, happened canonly, Oda seems to match them with characters that balance out the ability. This makes it harder for someone to just take the canon to abuse the df power. This is just how I see it though. I dunno how I feel about a faster healing df, but a regeneration DF is just super abusive. I mean, I trust you with is shisha, but if you ever put that up for adoption... that'd be a nightmare to deal with all the people wanting it and most to abuse it.

Uhm, hold on, gents. This is a thread with the purpose of re-evaluating the banned fruits list, but I feel we've just turned it into a thread with the purpose of re-evaluating a regeneration devil fruit.

I guess the banned fruits list is okay. Personally I don't refer to it so I'm not sure if it has any problems or not.

I hope to live to see the day when Mythical Zoan Fruits are un-banned but I doubt that will happen anytime soon and if it does, they'll be limited like Logia Fruits are now and to B-Class Characters or something like that.

[poppycock]

I don't see a problem with the regrowth of limbs, really.
Logias can turn into elements and avoid their limbs being cut off.
Buggy has a fruit that makes the act of cutting off a limb impossible!

As long as it's not the regrowth of limbs instantaneously (which, even, then, is still far weaker than the ones mentioned above) then why not?

[SHADE SMASH]

I got to ask something. Wouldn't regeneration be unavoidable for starfish fishman and lizard zoans? Or have we prevented anyone who has wished for either to have the ability for regeneration?

Honestly I would have no problem with a regeneration fruit. I have seen this kind of power in many other rp's and as long as it has a certain weakness and a few parameters, it was never quite powerful. Of course I may be too trusting of other people to not godmod with this power.... i'll shut up now >.>

POLO!

Kidding aside though, i intened the fruit to be a Salamander Zoan, but Lilly had the same idea, so i chose to change it. And i understand the concerns most people have over a fruit like that. But remember I've been working on this for a Long time, yall can trust me ;D

Now MOVING ON from my fruit, which i'll post later when i get round to it. Logia Fruits. I noticed that a great number of Logia are not really Logia in themselves. Logia as i see them are elemental fruits, or very close to it (For example Crocodile's Sand Logia, not an Element, but kinda close to it). To be honest i Always disliked the idea of giving out Logia fruits, as few people would really know how to use them and by that method, god mod with them regulary. To me really ALL the fruits on the site need looking at, cleared out. So many i know of are not used anymore, and rather Jealously i wish they'd be put up for adoption and / or deleted entirely. Give others a chance to use them ya'know?

I'm so on board with Shish's idea...it's not even funny. Logias that have passed approval in the past have been...eh...at best. In some cases they were actually great fruits, but in most I would dare to say they were simply excuses to either god mod or to simply have a logia fruit for name's sake.

Example being any multi-compound fruit such the Glue fruit, or even the various metal fruits (which there probably should only be one logia metal fruit considering Logia's are of one substance). These things would be best served as Paramecia fruits so...I mean reevaluation is being done so it's all good.

Regeneration should be limited to Zoans and Mythical Zoans as animals are naturally inclined to having such capabilities...mind you some animals have this, not all. Objects don't regenerate and Logias...well being intangible doesn't really lend well to having regenerative abilities.
