General Info about the story:::
Rated T: Recommended 15+ for violence, blood, language, alcohol use, and general pirate behavior.
Summary: Starts off after the Straw hat crew leaves Fishman Island and begins the second half of the Grand Line- The New World. Multiple Islands/ Arcs, adventures, etc. await.
It obviously contains spoilers if you only watch the anime. Since this takes place after the two year time skip, a lot of speculation as to the crew member's new powers and abilities will be used. When the manga shows off certain abilities that I could use, I'll incorporate them into the story.
This will include OC's to an extent (Can't finish a story 10 years in the making using the same characters over and over), but there won't be any additions to the current crew or anything. It won't' feature any apparent relationships, just general nakamaship, but I guess you can interpret it as you like. I plan for this to be a longer story, with several arcs. As far as Japanese-English translation goes, it'll pretty much be like the manga or the subbed anime. Randomly thrown in words like "nani" really bug me, so I won't use them. Honorifics, like "-san" will be used, however.
Original Characters
First off, let me get this straight: There will be NO additions to the Straw hat Crew. Period...period.
However, new characters are obviously a must. So, here's the deal: If you have an OC, and you either A) want me to or, B) don't mind me using said character, send me the info via a Personal message (not in the comments, please) with all the character information. Seeing how big I'd love this story to turn out to be, characters of all sorts will be needed, and I don't know if lil' old me can think up enough to fill the roles. Villians, everyday Joes, citizens, etc. are all welcome. Maybe even some royal families or noble characters. (hint, hint) Of course, whether or not I use 'em is up to me.
So, if you want to submit one, just send me a message with AT LEAST:
Character Name
Physical Description
Personality
Abilities
Background information and whatever else you have would be useful, though. Do note that I'm not going to use your Goku-like ancient double-devil-fruit user from hell character. Keep it real.
Comments and constructive criticism is appreciated.
I'll find time to write between my college and personal life, but there isn't any set days for updates, sorry.
Alright, on with the story.
