FRUIT: Ryōseirui Ryōseirui no Mi, Model: Salamander
His name was Hanzo of the Salamander, what the hell did you think I was going to get from him?
1) Salamander Physiology - User with this ability either is or can transform into a salamander, elemental being connected to fire, which has two greatly differing forms:
Now something I didn't really think when doing this fruit is that technically, we have the mythical salamander and the common variety salamanders.
I debated for a while as to how to interpret this fruit, but seeing as to how there is an actual Salamander Family Group (Sala-Sala Fruit, Axolotl Model), I am going with the Mythical variety for this one.
For clarification, legendary salamanders are often depicted as a typical salamander in shape, with a lizard-like form, but is ascribed an affinity with fire, sometimes specifically elemental fire, and can live unharmed in a fire environment and extinguish the hottest flames. They have poison powerful enough that merely by falling into a well they would poison the water, and by climbing a fruit tree poison the fruit.
So, not for the specifics.
2) Enhanced Strength and the like are implied since it is Zoan
3) Fire Immunity
4) Fire Negation
5) Fire Generation? – very debatable, legends can't decide whether or not salamanders are made of fire or can just breathe. I think I will leave this up to the writer who decides to use this fruit.
6) Poison Generation – think more along the lines of Komodo Dragons whose bite can kill because of how filthy the inside of their mouth is
7) Claw Retraction
8) Dermal Armor (Scales)
9) Enhanced Bite
10) Enhanced Lung Capacity
11) Enhanced Smell
12) Night Vision
13) Brumation – hibernation or ability to stay in a dormant state (useful for healing and hiding)
14) Burrowing
15) Wall Crawling
16) Prehensile Tail
17) Body/Limb Shedding
18) Regeneration – stronger than other Zoans due to reptilian nature
Some part of me keeps debating whether or not this should be under the Reptile Family or Amphibian Family for the Zoans. Unfortunately, the Lizard always comes to mind when I think about Reptile Zoans and he could swim, so that could be a factor.
I think it's a personal choice really.
On to the Aburame.
