(It's Electric!) Kosu Kosu no Mi

[theshorttableleg]

<Kosu Kosu no Mi>

---

English Name:– Generator Fruit
Classification:– Paramicia
Owned By:– Liam Blackthorne (awaiting approval)

---

Appearance:– It was a peach and still retained its form. But two swirls are on the opposing sides of it, but they form into each other at their ends and look jagged like arched electricity. Steel Blue in color and inside as well.

---

Ability:– The user becomes a human container of electrical currents in the from of static electricity, and is able to produce static flow within the body or the surface of the skin. The collected current is manually charged via user activity, or absorbed from a source. If one runs a mile when eating the fruit the user might generate 750 amps, 4166.7 amps being the max that can be stored. Shocks can range from 0.08 amps to 83.3 to all at once, depending on how you use the abilities. 

Weaknesses:– Sea-Prism Stone, underwater status, limb immobility, rubber (stops powers upon contact)

Hey there, mate.

 So, slight issue with this. There is already an Electricity Fruit. 

Unfortunately, in One Piece Canon, we only see one of any given "concept" for a Fruit, regardless of type. There are very similar concepts, but there's always a distinct difference. For example, Caesar had a Gas-Based fruit that could make Poison, while Magellan had a liquid poison fruit. 

Electricity, as a concept, is fairly broad yes, but it's pretty firmly covered and we don't really allow near identical copies without some meaningful difference in theme.

Well, Tokoz sort of jumped in before I was able to, which is ultimately fine, because I was going to say the same things.

Unfortunately, even though this is technically an "Electricity Production" Paramecia, it still falls under the same category as Enel's "Electricity/Lightning" Logia, in that both of these Fruits have the same "theme". In general, Fruits that are simple like this have a weirdness about them - if the substance they're producing is too "natural", they should probably be a Logia instead of a Paramecia, which is partially why these Production-style Paramecia tend more toward produced, man-made, or at least somehow "less than natural" things.

However, like I told you in the chat the other day, all hope is not lost! There are certainly plenty of options available to you to create a Paramecia that deals in the power of electricity, and even a non-Devil Fruit option. Off the top of my head, you have the options of creating, say, a Generator Paramecia (creating a charge through movement that can be built up and unleashed in some method, perhaps), a Static Paramecia (a concept that I am positive has been done on the site in the past!), or a Galvanism Paramecia (taking some cues from Frankenstein in some way; there's surely something in this idea if you look into it), and if you want to go without a Fruit, there's the option of adding a lightning-based Aspect to your character's FiSt upon upgrading it to D class!

However, like Tokoz and myself have said, as-is? This Fruit just isn't going to work, and it's because of Enel and his Lightning Logia.

Alright, i've changed it up to be more of a static electricity paramicia. Thank's for the input!

[Tokoz]

Righto, couple issues here. 

"The user becomes a human container of electrical currents in the from of static electricity, and is able to produce though not contain static flow within the body or the surface of the skin. The collected current is manually charged via user activity, or absorbed from a source. Produced electric flow allows the user to alter mental and physical reaction times and speeds at a switch on switch off rate.
"

This says "Produce but not contain", but it then says it's charged via user activity, or absorbed. That's, by definition, containing it. How much activity does it take to generate a shock? How strong is it? 

Also, improving your own physical or mental reaction times with electricity you generate by physical action seems rather easy to become overpowered. Not sure I'm keen on that aspect. 



 Sea-Prism Stone, underwater status, limb immobility, rubber, head-aches and muscle pains, muscles and brain damage if used to extremes, cannot be contained, only produced and juggled.

Devil Fruits generally do not harm their user through their own use. Luffy doesn't pull muscles, for example. Gonna need some other kind of weakness there. I'd say rubber, but what does rubber do to him? Hurt him? Stop his powers by contact? Needs more clarification. 

[theshorttableleg]

Ok. I've clarified and updated it as requested. Hope I got everything.

[Tokoz]

Well, the thing is volts aren't actually a measure of power like that, not exactly. You want Amps or something, most likely. 

Additionally, we still run into the issue of storing vs. generating, as you'd still have to be storing this. 

I think it'd be better to break this down into a few sections covering the power, like "Generation" "Storage" and "Usage". Alternatively, look into this version of the fruit from the past, take some inspiration from that.

The issue you're running into is storage and generation. Is he going to go run a mile before every attack? Lots of movement and then storing electricity isn't a static theme, it's a generator.
