Account Name:megaflamer


Basic Character Information
Name:Nina Swift
Nickname:
Age:21
Gender:Female
Race: Mermaid (Blue Devil Damselfish)
Affiliation:Pirate
Bounty:1 500 000 ::beli::
Achievements:

  • Torched a bounty hunter vessel, with the crew still on board
  • Learned how to use Observation Haki
  • Got mermaid-napped by the shishibukai Big Top

Profession:#
<Primary>
~Doctor
A Doctor, on a ship or otherwise, gains large medical knowledge. They also get various other related knowledge in terms of poisons, nutrients, animals, anatomy and certain history. Suturing and cleaning wounds, making bandages out of various materials and preparing drugs, is all part of a Doctor's job. Doctors are the only ones capable of healing serious injuries on the crew.They also do not need to pay upkeep on the drugs/poisons they use

<Secondary profession>
~Marksman
The profession of Marksman provides sound experience and insight in calculating range, distance and wind elements and their impact on the path of a projectile. It is a general trait that applies to guns, slingshots, cannons, rifles and the like. People without this profession will have little to no luck in firing cannonballs where they are supposed to go under normal battle conditions.


Position: Doctor


Physical Appearance
Height:130 cm
Weight:41 kg
Hair: Clear blue with a short naturally grown hairstyle
Eyes: Blue, they sparkle in the sun
Clothing/Accessories:She usually wears a plain blue dress, it is without decorations, the arms stop just below her elbows while the skirt part stops just above her knees. This leaves her clear blue scaled legs visible while on land, in the sea it leaves her fin unobstructed for optimal swimming.

When the temperature falls to levels where the dress becomes uncomfortable she will switch to her old clothing, that is a set of pants, jacket and beret, all of whom have been repaired on multiple occasions and looks like something you would find on a back alley orphan.

She wears a small streamlined watertight backpack in which she keeps her medical supplies + some other things that cant take being in water for long periods of time

Lastly she has a specially designed quiver strapped to her waist, it is filled with arrows for her bow, the quiver is made so that no arrows can fall out when she swims and it will not fill with water. The bow itself is usually kept in a leather holster strapped to her back beside the backpack, she keeps the string separately due to the fact that your average bowstring will break if exposed to water for extended periods of time

General Appearance: Her general body build is very small, roughly the size of a child but with the maturity of a grown woman. This is a natural trait of her specific species of mermaid. A feature of Blue Devil Damselfish mermaids are their bright blue scales that seem to shine when hit by sunlight, yellow stripe at the base of the fin and for females such as Nina a black spot just beneath the waistline on her back. They also tend to be of a unusually tiny stature. She could be called a true beauty.

When in her legged form her lower body could easily be mistaken for true human legs and feet, only the scales and their very un-human colouring gives her away, if she wore pants and shoes it would be very difficult to tell her apart from real humans.

She tends to radiate a very casual atmosphere, both walking and swimming in a way that puts others at ease around her. However this changes radically when she looses her temper, when that happen she will emit a murderous aura makes most animals turn around and run very fast in the opposite direction, the same goes for your average fish. Even more so due to the fact that as a mermaid she can convey her emotions to them.

The Character
Personality:Another feature her species of mermaid is that they all tend to have a short fuse, this is only partly true for Nina. Having been very shy for a large portion of her life she manages to put a lid on her emotions for the most part. However sometimes she erupts in a fit of anger, what causes it varies greatly and is can be something most would see as trivial.

Having experienced both great joy and great sadness has caused her to take on something of a cynical view of life, however despite that she can still see and feel the joy and beauty of things and events. Curiosity being a large part of her, she enjoys the pure act of finding new pieces of information regarding something she enjoys. Her interest is usually centred around medical science, more specifically the various properties of herbs and how to apply said herbs to get the desired effect. Spending a lot of time experimenting to get it just right when it matters.

As long as things don't get too extreme or personal she will try to calmly analyze the situation before coming to a decision, her doctor instinct telling her that getting worked up over nothing is a waste of time.

However somewhere in her core is a naive girl who only bears the single wish of having a place where she belongs, that said she tries her best to keep that part tightly controlled, even if it might surface when she is put in a situation of great stress or emotional instability.

She is also very determined once she has set her mind to a task, if she decides to pull through with something she will not give up until it is done or someone manages to persuade her otherwise

Overall she tries to take things as they come and not worry too much on the future even if she might brood over it from time to time.

Hometown:Grand line: The Florian Triangle: a small rocky island barely more than a cliff in the sea

History:Nina was born on a unlucky day in a unlucky place, her parents were travelling back to their home near Shabondy in order for her mother to give birth there, but a unfortunate destiny made it so that they got trapped in the Florian triangle on a minuscule island surrounded by sea kings, that was where she was born on a cold and stormy January night.

Her mother fell sick after her birth, food was extremely scarce so her father did his best in order to try and find some. It took him weeks to find some emergency rations that had washed ashore. The seakings around the island ate most of what could have washed ashore. Half a year after her birth Ninas mother died.

Her grief struck father did his best for the two of them to survive, yet life was by no means easy her early years were filled with nothing but misery. He managed to keep the two of them alive for a few years before depression and madness finally got the better of him, in a suicidal attempt to get away from the island he flung himself into the ocean and tried to escape despite the seaking threat

The next morning Nina found a piece of his tail washed ashore, not fully understanding what had happened she stayed on the island which was all she knew of the world save a few scattered pieces of ship that sometimes washed ashore. By this time she was five years old and had absolutely no knowledge of how to survive on her own. Even had the island been free of surrounding seakings she would not have been able to make it on her own.

As the days slowly passed by she spent most of her days at the very spot where she had found the remains of her father, occasionally staring at a mirror her father had set up in the hopes of being rescued, that was before he found out about the seakings. She didn't know what it was for and didn't care to find out either. Slowly but surely she wasted away and eventually completely lost conciousness...

The next thing she knew was the steady rocking of a ship, she slowly opened her eyes to find a unfamiliar wooden roof above her head and the sound of waves in her ears. This was a very unfamiliar environment to her and it scared her, the next thing she noticed was a kind face looking down on her. She saw little else before losing conciousness once again, this process repeated several times over the next few weeks, every time that kind face was somewhere nearby, be it beside her bed, in the room or looking at her like the first time.

Once she could stay awake long enough he began to bring her food, neither of them ever said anything. Slowly she regained her strength, she also started to get used to her room. As time slowly passed by she soon met another person, the second man was a bearded fellow that scared her at first, she would curl up in a ball whenever he showed his face. However he would still talk to her, the first thing he did was explaining where she was and how she ended up there.

She was on a pirate ship, the crew wasn't especially famous yet they had sailed the grand line for a long time, one day they had seen something flashing in the distance and had investigated, what they had found was a very small island with a unconscious mermaid child, they had seen traces of seakings but none had been present when they arrived. The mermaid they found was Nina and she had been on the brink of starvation, she had been saved only by the skill of the ship doctor who had stayed by her side day and night in order to properly treat her. He also said that the doctor was mute.

Nina didn't say anything and the bearded man left, he returned regularly from then on and talked to her about various things, she knew a little of what he said but most of it were new to her. It took him a full month before she finally came out of her shell, he was talking about a medical herb, a subject that absolutely fascinated Nina, when she asked him what you used it for. He simply smiled and answered her question.

It was as if something that had been stuck inside of her finally gave way and she began to talk to the man. At first it was mostly various questions but soon it expanded to talking about other things as well. soon after she was introduced to the rest of the crew as well, the bearded man had been the captain of the ship which was something of a surprise for Nina.

The crew was a cheerful bunch that took to Nina very quickly, she soon responded to their kindness and that marked the beginning of the happiest time in her young life, she began to learn more about herbs from the doctor and was soon recognised as his apprentice. One day when the weather turned for the colder the doctor gave her a jacket and a pair of pants to keep her warm, somehow she kept wearing them even after the weather turned for the better.

In her core she was still the shy girl the pirates had found and she eventually took to pretending to be a boy whenever someone other than the crew might see her. The pirates took it well, laughing the matter off saying that it didn't change who she were.

At her eight birthday she was given a bow made for children, she quickly became very fond of it and spent a lot of tine practising with it. The crew marksman said that if she continued at that pace she would be able to shoot underwater eventually, he smiled when he said it but Nina suspected that he had been partly serious

As the years passed she soon became a full fledged doctor as well as a competent archer, she had asked why the crew had never attempted to cross into the new world but her only reply was 'it was never meant to be' she suspected that they had tried and failed at some point before encountering her. As it was they were just aimlessly venturing from island to island while having a good time on the way.

It was not far after her fifteenth birthday when disaster befell the crew, one day they encountered a marine battleship, normally it wouldn't have paid the unknown pirates much heed but the captain aboard was one of those that never let pirates get out of sight no matter how unknown they might be.

Nine never realized what was happening until the deck erupted in flames, being hit with the full power of a ship capable of turning islands into wastelands the pirate ship didn't stand a chance. It went down in a matter of minutes. Miraculously Nina survived the attack but still ended up trapped in the ship together with her dead comrades.

Surviving purely on old emergency rations she spent months trapped in the dead husk that was once her home, she could do nothing but cry in the darkness beneath the waves, wondering why her crew had been targeted when all they had ever wanted was to have fun during their adventures. Eventually a part of the ship that had been hit unusually hard by the battleship weakened due to the constant exposure to water and collapsed, at the same time opening up a way out for Nina.

Collecting as many of the bones of her friends as she could find Nina headed for the surface. and made her way to the nearest uninhabited island, there she held a funeral for her dead friends. She could never look at a bow again after that day, wowing to only pick the trade up again if she could find another place where she belonged

As she began to travel on her own the first thing she did was stowing away on a ship bound for the blues, knowing that she would be unable to cope with the dangers of the grand line as she were. She spent many years wandering after that point, picking up a pair of strange gauntlet swords as a replacement weapon, she wasn't very good at using them but she figured that they just had to do.

Her personality became more and more cynical and introverted as time passed, still hiding her true gender. Sinking further and further down into loneliness she never seriously considered getting any companions.

Then one day not far before her twenty first birthday she ended up being chased by a sea predator to a island in west blue, not sure on how to get away without getting the predator on her heels again she wandered into town, one thing led to another and she ended up onboard the ship belonging to the Kraken Pirates as their doctor, at first she only intended for it to be a temporary stay but soon after joining the crew including Nina ended up in the hands of a crazed witch worshipping cult. Afterward she began to realize that her temporary choice of weapon just didn't cut it anymore.

Then came the day her gender was revealed, it stared out innocently enough with a big bird running off with her clothes and ended with a encounter with the marines. This proved to her that she had found a new place where she belonged, with no need to hide her true self any longer she picked up the bow again and felt that maybe she could really put her hopes in this crew that she was now a part of.



Abilities and Possessions
Combat:She uses her bow mainly, using her speed to keep a good distance between herself and the target. She can use the bow when in her full mermaid form just as well as she can while on land. If the enemy gets too close for comfort she will try to get away by any means necessary, a favourite tactic for men being a swift kick to the family jewels. If they are close but not too close she will fire an arrow or two at point blank range, bows being quite deadly at that distance

Weaponry:
*Custom Steel Shortbow 'Arbalest'

This is a 100 cm long shortbow made from pure steel with a steel wire bowstring.
This bow has been customised so that it has 3 different firing stages. The first one being the shortbow, it has the least power but even a weak person can draw it with little trouble.

The second stage is enabled by folding out the 'real' ends of the bow that are normally folded in to reduce the strength needed to properly draw the thing. This makes the bow 140 cm long and nearly doubles the force and reach of the arrows, however the user needs a fair amount of strength (30+) to fire it properly

The third and last stage is enabled by attaching a separate frame on top of the second stage and putting on a longer bowstring. This makes the bow 200cm long and to unwieldy to use on land, it has by far the most power out of all the modes, the reach is not to be scoffed at either with a maximum range of one and a half kilometre. Albeit it cannot be drawn unless the user has superhuman strength (50+) it comes with a wooden stand that enables shipboard use (the additional parts are usually stored on the Kraken pirate ship)

As for ammunition, the first stage use standard wooden arrows with steel tips, the second stage use arrows made entirely from steel but with little difference from regular arrows. The third stage uses specially constructed steel arrows that are twice as long as regular arrows. All of the stages can be fired as quickly as the user can reload, that is one arrow per shot unless the user is very skilled (aka techniques)

Techniques
Double Strafe 4
Type:Offensive
Range:long
Stats:
Description:Nina nocks two arrows at once before firing them at an enemy

Volley 8
Type:Offensive
Range:long
Stats:
Description:Nina aims at a specific area before unleashing a hailstorm of arrows over it by pushing her firing speed to the limit.


Berserker Pill 8
Type:Offensive
Range:long
Stats:+5 Str
Description:Nina creates a set of five special pills designed to remove some of the safety limits the brain imposes on the body, ingesting this pill results in an increase in strength while at the same time numbing pain. This pill can only be used safely once per person and sl due to the high strain it puts on the body (lasts five posting rounds)

Ceaseless Charge Pill 17
Type:Supportive
Range:n/A
Stats:+6 Str +5 Stamina
Description:(Branched from 'Berserker Pill') Nina has created some special pills designed to remove some of the safety limits the brain imposes on the body, ingesting this pill results in an increase in strength and stamina while at the same time numbing pain, in addition after mixing in a special herb found on gessou island it now makes the users blood clot immideately on contact with air, thus preventing death due to bleeding out; oddly enough as a side effect the users blood turns translucent for the duration of the pills effect. Due to safety reasons this pill cannot be used very often due to the strain it puts on the body (Lasts 4 posting rounds with a 4 posting round cooldown afterwards, she carries a bottle containing 5 of these, replenished in-between sls)

Mermaid Archery: Torrental Tide 18 (16 + 2)
Type:Offensive
Range:Very Long
Stats:
Description: While submerged Nina aims an arrow and fires it, The water immediately around the arrow will be 'pulled' along as it travels forward, creating a large tide of water following in the wake of the arrow, at this point the arrow simply acts as guidance to the mass of water, as it breaks the surface the water will follow the arrow until it hits something. Upon doing so all water contained in the wave will effectively flood the area immediately around the point of impact. Due to the force behind this arrow it can easily break through tough defences (bonus to str equal to the rank of this technique for the duration of it) hitting something while the arrow is still submerged will cause the wave to continue forward without the arrow. The amount of the wave is roughly equal to three cubic metres of water with the size being one cubic metre and length 3 metres


Life Thread 17
Type:Supportive
Range:Single target
Stats:+7 accuracy, +7 speed
Description:Focusing her Haki Nina will sense the emotional state, position, degree of bloodthirst, heartbeat and general physical state of a single target, this acts as a kind of advanced medical diagnostic. While useful in combat its true purpose is to monitor patients during an operation (Acts as a toggle buff with a maximum duration of 4 turns with a cooldown equal to the turns it was used)

Everything looks fine, but you don't have a reliable source for where your beli gains and losses come from. If you could find and link those, I'd flag this.

recalculated the beli, came up with 8 775 000. made an error in the original calc by forgetting to add in the losses from the ship and clinic (-75 000 and -400 000 respectively)


full calc
3+1+5,25 mil beli =9 250 000
9 250 000 - 1 200 000 - 400 000 - 75 000 = 7 575 000
7 575 000 + 1 200 000 (refund) = 8 775 000
