Last month, I requested a devil fruit reservation approval. It was denied. Then approved... sort of. Here's the topic.

Am I just finding the fruit, or can I eat it? I don't know what legacy traits have to do with this either.

Please explain, someone. :[

First off, Devil Fruits aren't legacy traits, those people were just dumb.

To get the fruit, you have a standard sl with the goal of finding the fruit. This can be with a narrator or your crew, or whoever. After 6 posts from you, you have qualified for a tier 5 fruit, so once that topic is graded, you'll get the fruit.

Well, the goal of the SL isn't (entirely) to find the fruit.

Also, just to be safe; once I find it, can I eat it, or no?

The ooc goal of the thread is the df, characters rarely know they are seeking a devil fruit in a thread.

You don't actually get the fruit until the thread is graded.

That's fine. I kinda figured as much, but that's not what I asked... Can I eat it once it's graded, or do I just hang onto it until I unlock my traits?

You don't do the thread until you have the traits, or are within 10 of your next trait

Well I believe the character he wants it on does have the open traits for it. So I believe he's good to go with it.

Devil fruits are lumped with Legacy traits because both require something to be done IC to unlock. Because of this, you are allowed to cash in your fate traits at any time to get a devil fruit or legacy traits. If you have one less trait than required in fated, you can still do a df/whatever SL for it 10 ad before you would get the final trait required.

There was confusion among staff on this whole thing which we resolved in the WC, hence why your topic was approved after formally being denied for the wrong reasons.

When you find the fruit in your SL, your character can eat it. However, you may not use the fruit's powers until the SL is graded, the grader approves that you got the devil fruit, and you cash in te necessary fated traits for the fruit traits. For example, I began rping with my character Lucas after his devil fruit SL, but since Sven hadn't grade the SL yet and officially given my fruit, I could use my Mera Mera powers.

Hope that clears things up. Or made them more confusing

Okay, that solves it then. I won't get the fruit in this SL, I'll get it in another. I'll see the fruit in this one, though. Thanks.

Tip for mods: Answer the question given. For some odd reason the majority of you seem to tiptoe around it for multiple posts. It'd save a lot of time if you just get to the point.

Edit: THANK YOU BLADES, YOU'RE A GOD.

Just going to say it, it isn't that mods are tiptoeing around the issue. Its just the information available is limited to people. A lot of stuff is unwritten and you can get some of that just by being around the cbox talking. Others are just not said at all until the issue pops up. I do recall though dfs being "legacy" for the one reason its a character defining trait that takes an SL to be earned.

Other's lack of knowledge isn't tiptoeing, base point lol. May take a while for the question to be answered bc people who do know just haven't seen the thread yet.

I still think mods should just answer the question directly. :/

Everyone for that matter, lol.
