Hello! I was recently accepted as a character, and I'm curious if anyone else who is new or looking to RP with some newcomers might be willing to join for an RP Thread set in the North Blue. I have a general plot outline, one that I'm more than willing to fine tune with anyone that would like to join it; in fact, I'd welcome it! After all, a thread I think would only be as good as what it does for the characters involved.
So, the pitch: My character, Orous, is a grisly, sullen Fishman that's taken residence on Notice Island in the North Blue (the former home of the Bellamy pirates.) My plan for the first thread is for him as a character to reawaken his dreams of being the world's greatest shipwright and to sail the seas and the Grand Line on a ship of his own design. For that, he'd probably need some motivation.
Currently, he works as a barkeep/carpenter for the people of Notice Island, generally a village off to the side of the more industrious area. He's helped to rebuild the island from a pirate attack 6 years ago, and as such, he's made a name for himself and has been accepted by the people of the island. Everyone knows about his previous dreams, and several want him to realize them one day; unfortunately, Orous has let his past experiences consume him and has given up on those dreams, choosing to live for others instead of himself.
Now, obviously, I think the easiest way for a character like Orous to get motivation to leave is to come face to face with pirates once more; however, I think in this case, Fishman pirates might be more thematically present (not THE fishman pirates, but perhaps a ragtag group looking for payback against humans). Orous, generally considered a weakling from his past on Fishman Island, would be recognized and would be ridiculed for his new life. These pirates would ultimately seek to put Notice Island under their control and force Orous to work for them in exchange for the people's lives. Orous would be too weak to resist them, but perhaps a few characters he meets might be able to help him and give him the strength to finally fight back against those that would push him down and rob him of his true dreams? Maybe even enough to finally set sail and try to become the world's best shipwright!
Obviously, if anybody wanted elements that would help their characters grow too, I'd love to discuss those! If people would like to RP with me, I'd love it if we all came up with a plot that benefited all of our characters in a thematic and progressive way! More than anything, I'm just looking for the chance to have fun in this crazy world of One Piece! Please let me know if you'd like to do something together, I can't wait to start having fun!
