Poke D. Slow

Posted Image


Account Name: Slowpoke


Basic Character Information
Name: Poke D. Slow
Nickname: The Comedian
Age: 37
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Affiliation: Other
Threat: 0
Achievements:

-Once told a joke so bad that people actually started bleeding.
-Managed to make laughing children cry through jokes.
-Turned away from a bad joke competition because they didn't accept professionals

Profession:

Entertainer
An entertainer makes his/her living through putting on shows. This profession is always specialized towards a specific type, and includes Dancer, Musician, Juggler and many more. Knowledge granted is job-specific. Entertainers can use their performance skills, be they song, dance or anything else, to influence others and use them as various buffs.

Martial Artist
A Martial Artist is someone who specializes in hand-to-hand combat, completely or very close to unarmed. They usually have good insight in the aspects of weight, balance and movement of the body.

Chef
A Chef, Cook, Bartender or any other distinct related profession gives kitchen skills and knowledge about food, flavoring, ingredients, drink, and nutrients. They are masters at making the most out of whatever ingredients are available, and know how to create a balanced diet for the crew that will keep everyone in fighting trim.

Thief
The Thief is a job closely related to the assassin. They both provide stealth capabilities, though a Thief gains lockpicking skills instead of poison knowledge, can generally know their way around the ways of barter and trade, and pickpocketing. Thieves don't have it hard to find 'underground info' in most cities, either.

Position: Comic


Physical Appearance
Height: 5' 10''
Weight: 387 lbs
Hair: Naturally brown, but he keeps it dyed blond now. It's medium length, falling just past his ears. It normally hangs all limp and pathetic, but whenever Poke moves quickly (a rare feat for him) his hair blows majestically behind him.
Eyes: Brown and beady.
Clothing/Accessories: Thick blue jeans, white sneakers with fake designer brand labels, stretched white beater, and a red collared short-sleeve that is kept unbuttoned in the front so it blows behind him almost like a cape. The bottom of the red collared shirt is shredded up to look like battle-damage.
General Appearance: Poke is not a small man. While in the world of One Piece his height could be considered low, his rotund shape and heavy weight make up for it. He has a lot of body fat around his middle and his thighs are so big that he needs to wear underclothes to keep them from rubbing together when he walks. He is always carrying some kind of food with him which, while not necessarily a bad thing, doesn't help with his weight problem. He always seems to make super serious expressions. While his body has a large amount of fat, his musculature shouldn't be overlooked. He has to have some way to move all that beef, after all.

The Character 
Personality: Poke isn't the most quick witted of men, but he doesn't have to be. As a comedian he can write most of his material before hand and just recite it as needed. Unfortunately this means he isn't very skilled at impromptu work, but that's never bothered him before. He laughs at his own jokes with his obnoxious “Gohuahuahuahuahuahuahua” laugh. It sounds more like a chortle. He thinks his jokes are always funny, even the terrible ones. If the audience doesn't laugh then they just have a poor sense of humor!

Being a man of large stature, Poke is also a self proclaimed food critic. He goes around writing awful reviews for restaurants that displease him, not that many people seem to really care. He values his own opinions, though, and that's all that matters! He's also learning to cook himself. He's getting pretty good at it and he enjoys it immensely. Of course he'd never cook for someone else. If he makes it then he's the one eating it! Why should he cook for lazy people who can't make their own!?

Poke is determined to one day become a ninja. He read lots of stories as a young kid about ninjas so it's become one of his life goals to master the martial arts and become a shadow in the night. He refuses to accept that his girth makes this nigh impossible and he'll always try to use stealth in inappropriate ways. Even when hiding behind a thin pole Poke will insist that he's invisible to his enemies. If challenged on this he will get rowdy.

Despite all his shortcomings, Poke is a nice guy at heart. He holds doors open for women, he wears handsome fedoras, and he always compliments members of the fairer sex. It's not his fault women always friendzone him! One day he'll find the perfect girlfriend and then all those other women will be jealous! Until then, he'll keep his fedora in his briefcase storage.

Hometown: Karate Island, South Blue
History: Poke's grandfather was a ninja. His dad was a chef. His grandmother was a ninja. His mom was an entertainer. Growing up with all these influences was hard on the poor fat kid. He wanted to be strong like his grandpa, but he also wanted to be funny and smart like his mom. He wanted to be nimble and quick like his grandma, but he also wanted to be able to cook and eat delicious food like his father. Perhaps this strange assortment of every kind of influence available lead Poke to become the man he is. Instead of becoming a master of one trade, he became a failure at multiple!

Growing up, Poke was bullied by the other kids on the island. They all made fun of him for his terrible ninja skills, his awful cooking skills, his horrendous joke telling abilities, and his awful stealth technique. He would get frustrated and run away crying. Still, he was never deterred from what he wanted to do. Poke continued his training, hoping to one day become strong enough to make all those other kids eat their own words!

Eventually, Poke met a girl around the same age as him on the island. Her name was Sherry Marzipan Delilah. She was beautiful. Her perfect round figure, her bulging gut, and her mustache were all so perfectly aligned that Poke couldn't help but fall in love with her. So, building up his confidence, Poke asked out the prettiest girl on the island.

She denied him. This punch in the gut taught Poke a valuable life lesson. Never be the one to ask the woman out. He just needs to make them like him first and make them ask him out! Clearly he moved too soon and was seen as creepy. Still, he wouldn't give up. One day he would get that fine lady to be his wife! So he decided to continue his training off the island. He needed to make a grand return and surprise everyone with his skills!

Poke ended up broke and wandering the blues as a destitute beggar. Eventually he found work at a fast food restaurant and worked there until his 37th birthday. Finally, having saved up enough money to try a life of adventure again, the now aged Poke set out for the seas!


Abilities and Possessions 
Combat: Poke fights using ninjutsu skills he learned form his grandfather. Of course he always tries to talk opponents out of fighting him first, because he knows his fists and legs are considered lethal weapons. He even tries to pepper his performance with his signature comedy. Often times that is so effective that enemies vomit up blood without him even having to hit them! He has also learned to fight using the wooden microphone that he carries around with him. He tries to use it like a ninja ball and chain.
Weaponry: One Wooden Microphone – It's made of wood so it can be used to club people. Doesn't actually amplify voices. It has a small 5 foot rope attached to the end meant to represent the cord.
Items: Food, water, comedy notes, more food, and some extra rations just to be safe.

SD earned would be 0, since those are the starter points and don't count to the overall SD count. Also add in the amount of stats you get from your mammoth stamina, just so it's easier to read. Everything else checks out in that regard.

List the full description of your primary and secondary professions (rememberer to italicize the bonus you get from your primary). On that note, put in the full descriptions for all traits you've taken as well.

Put South Blue in as the location for Karate Island.

Also, I want to see a reference to Beverly Hills Ninja, but that's entirely optional.

I have done all that was asked of me oh moderator of orange color. I appreciate your prudent and forthright nature in assisting me with the application process.

I will not, however, make any references to Beverly Hills Ninja. Such a decision could prove to be folly, but I shall stand behind it. I tip my fedora to you.

Also did you hear that the Americans elected a black president!? Such progress!

Note on Technique Ranges (mostly in regards to the punch): Short Range is in reference to like, beginner level ranged combat (a few meters), you're looking for 'Melee'.

It's fairly implicit, but you should probably specify that the microphone is the subject of your Prop Performance trait.

still, tentatively,

Topic is flagged for approval.
Okay, fine, I actually have characters.
