One piece Blackbeard's Plan Discussion

Oscar still has a Devil Fruit to fall back on, even if it is taboo for him. Remy just has swordsmanship, sharpshooting(I think), and cleverness.

No he doesn't? Oscar has no fruit. He's got fast fists, faster talk, and a necklace of noisy shells.

Really? Could have sworn he had the Kuma Kuma no Mi.

EDIT- Oh oops. Sorry. I was wrong. You can both be Usopp!

Aren't you the one who has the CP 9 skills?

Not yet...

Seriously, his profile is the second one in the sign up thread.

I mean you would be the Sanji of the group.

Sorry. My bad.

I don't think Henry fits into any of the One Piece stereotypes does he? Not that I can think of anyway.

Not sharpshooting. He keeps a pistol, but he's about average with it.

But yeah, Oscar and Remy are pretty average, all things taken into account. Though, now that I think of it, the two of them would probably make an excellent infiltration/sabotage team.

You're the "I have a really weird DF power" guy of the crew. AKA, the Nico Robin.

Anyway, it's bedtime for me, so I'm out for the night.

So who would Hartley be? Hartley's backstory closely resembles Robin's, at least.

Yeah, that makes sense. I do have some pretty creative uses for Henry's powers, and his skills are pretty developed since he got it as a kid and all.

Yeah I did notice early on we have only guy characters, but there you go. Luck of the draw, isn't it. Maybe someone will do a Princess Vivi and make a girl to tag along with the crew temporarily, or something. maybe I will, to facilitate the RP. I unno.

As for combat in the RP, I think you guys should just think on it realistically and logically. For example, if Calcia defeats all of you in battle then the RP is sort of dead in a Total Party Kill. However, if they just managed to hold her back, or escape her until they cross Reverse Mountain, for example, then they've 'beaten her' of sorts. Of course, they could work together to take her down.

Personally I think it would be a real bonding moment if all of your characters work together to bring down a fricking -logia- haha, in your first outing. Just be polite with the combat, although you shouldn't rally have to ask permission to fight. No godmoding, obviously.

Weekend revelries together with release of X-Com and Dishonored made me quite unable to post in RP for last two days. I do some kind of setup post right away and I should be posting...regularly or at least semi-regularly from now on.

(Also, 68 post in just two days? Whoa...)

I'll reply in 8 hours. I'm a bit busy at the moment to not get interrupted while writing.

Yeah but I guess that's what happens when we have 8 players or something. Lots of posts quickly and a bit of confusion. Saiga should up his posting a bit, or well, what is er that Devil Friut researcher's guy doing.

How about the people wh keep going on about stealing a ship end up trying to steal Itsuki's ship? I think the main group should gather together now.

Yeah, I'm here and can post, but at the moment Itsuki doesn't really have anything to do.

Although, I'll be going to bed now.

Good point. What do you think Itsuki should do next? I want some way for him to suddenly call his crew to him and make a plan... just as Calcia arrives to fuck shit up.

Hey, Big P, Calcia isn't a pirate. The Marines don't know that she's working for Greenbeard, and she doesn't have a bounty poster. I'm not trying to sound insulting here or anything. Sincerity Mode

Also, I think that Calcia's a fairly weak Logia. She's no Enel or Akainu. If you get enough heat attacking her, her combat ability will be lessened. So that means that Hartley has an advantage(This was unintentional. I just made Calcia a few days ago).

Corr spent an hour at work talking about how to beat her, so maybe he has more ideas than I do.

I was kind of waiting for something to happen (like, the bounty hunters or Greenbeard to make a move or something) since Remy isn't necessarily planning to steal a ship — that's Howard's suggestion. But yes, Oscar and Remy should probably be heading towards the harbor.

Acids, actually. I'm pretty sure if Calcia's hit with an acid in Logia form, she'll curdle. Something as weak as lemon juice might actually do the trick. But heat also works.

Sorry about that but I thought the plot needed to get moving a bit now after we all got comfortable.

Let the action COMMENCE.

OK. I can work with this, then. "Milky Way" Calcia with a bounty of 63,000,000. An unnaturally high bounty, but then again, what isn't in this RPG.

Corr, how much damage would it do to Calcia?

Also, about the female Vivi-type character, why not Calcia? She wants revenge against Greenbeard. I could give up the commands of the character to someone else, and she can leave once we beat him.

bwahaha Milky Way :P Er, I would rather have a character wh owasn't thought up in 5 minutes :/

>Just realized the crew's an entirety of nine guys.

Charlotte! :V

Sorry for absence again, busy weekend >.<

edited 14th Oct '12 7:43:25 AM by Adannor

She wasn't. I actually thought about what would happen if she became a Pirate. Now, since she is declared a pirate, I guess the Marines know she works for Greenbeard, and that she has a Logia. If you look at the original post, Milky Way was her original Epitaph. I'd say the bounty is accurate for a Logia and former Marine.

@jcw, It depends. Curds are still only semi-solid — Wikipedia says they're more like a gel than a solid unless you add something else to the mix to make it cheese (drastic oversimplification). At the very least, I would assume it would cause Calcia to have trouble controlling her transformation and movement while in milk form.

If you wanted to be extremely generous to the other side, you could allow it to have the same effect that water had on Crocodile — makes her solid enough for other attacks to strike.

And, of course, that's all in addition to whatever damage the acid you're using would do — lemon juice or vinegar isn't likely to cause extra problems, but something more corrosive might cause extra damage in addition to speeding up the curdling process.

Heat can also apparently cause curdling, so Hartley's got a good advantage there.

Mind you, I don't know exactly how common this knowledge would be for any of our characters.

...Except probably Charlotte. How appropriate.
