Basic Character Information
Name: Desmond P. Hayden
Nickname: Des/Hayden
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Affiliation: Pirate
Bounty: 0
Achievements: N/A
Profession: Weapon Specialist- A much more general fighter-type profession, a Weapon Specialist is someone who has to a large or small degree devoted his/her life to the mastery of a single weapon or weapon type, such as Swords, Axes or Whips. This profession applies generally to melee weapons. Characters with this profession have access to certain additional traits and may create "Stance" techniques.

(Secondary) 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

Position: Captain


Physical Appearance
Height: 5’11
Weight: 192
Hair: Black
Eyes: Hazel
Clothing/Accessories:

Hayden main accessory is the maroon scarf he carries tied around his cape t, he’s often known to bring his hand up to loosen it before a fight more of a habit than anything else by now. Followed by is an iron chest piece and two shoulder guards that are smaller plates of metal kept in place by lather latches. His lower body consists of some brown cloth pants and boots.

In the most intense moments of a battle he untie his scarf and ties it around his right arm refusing to remove it till he feels this enemy has been vanquished. It's simply something he has done out of habit a reminder that the war is not over till he drops or the enemy drops.

General Appearance:

Desmond is roughly five foot eleven a odd height but it’s his none the less, his a general mesomorphic body it suits him well however. Followed by his height and body type you can move down to his hair on his head, it’s a raven black color usually just brushed forward and about. His facial structure is very broad and square at the jawline, the typical soldier if you would. His eyes have a pair of normal eyebrows but his dark and dull hazel irises express tiredness most of the time. His nose slightly flat with a arch at the end just above his slightly thin lips. Finally for his face he has a small amount of facial hair forming a rough dark jawline of hair.

Moving down from all this you get to see his overall body, it’s firm and strong giving only a small amount to fat but not a lot that's noticeable. His shoulders are wide firm just like the rest of his body, arms that are thick from training. The rest of his body is pretty evened out when it comes to muscle and fat ratio but it’s obvious he’s strong. However, what is most noticeable about his body is the scars that litter it, some coming from slashes and even a few burns across his body. He also does have a horizontal slash across his nose.

The Character
Personality:

Good natured and loyal, Desmond believes through passion he can gain strength. He’s what he refers to himself as ‘a dog of war’. He never shies away from a good challenge but does understand that he may have limitations but if those he holds dear are in danger or he believes he is disrespected he will defend himself and them, verbally or physically. To be honest he wears his heart on his sleeve willing to be frank about how he feels about something, if you piss him off with something he doesn’t care who you are he will tell you. Even as a pirate he does have some type of morals and just generally doesn’t believe in treating people certain ways unless they have it coming. He set sails to be free that all it is to it.

Hometown: Loguetown, East Blue

History: Hayden was born in a bustling loguetown, the town known for the birth and death of Gol D. Roger. Surprisingly this never really affected his personality much of a child, being a lively child who was the one known for rough housing. He never truly intended to hurt other kids but he just liked fighting to be frank, he liked challenges something everyone in the Hayden family all had in common. His rough housing natured mixed with his quickness made it’s self known in his early younger years leading to him having to help around his family smithing business- something he never took up instead carrying weapons or supplies to those who ordered them. It was a pretty simplistic life all the way up to when he was ten.

It wasn’t when his life started to go down but this was the time his mother, Mary Hayden, took illness and eventually died. The family business as his father said was of course doing steady something his father told him managed to stick with him all these years ‘people always need weapons’. When his father told him this it seemed like he had a tired feeling to his words, but despite the success of the business his father (perhaps out of tiredness) close the shop down when Hayden turned sixteen. Hayden was utterly confused why someone would shut down their livelyhood on a whim and leave their family; the only parting words his father left him before departing for the sea as gods know was was: ‘Son chances are you will never see me again- you may hate me now but I hope.. I hope you follow your dreams.. Also I left you a parting gift.’ At the time these words where simply place holders for the internal rage he held after his father left causing him to spiral in a small streak of rebellion that got him in fights and trouble alike. Finally after two year of this stunt he managed to meet a small crew of people that stopped in Loguetown, these strange people came into town and of course Des wanted to fight them for the sake of a fight but to his surprise their leader began to laugh- a laugh that only began to spread to him and when the laughter stopped he was invited to have a drink with them.

Des found out these people hoisted a Jolly Roger when he went to the pub with them, he listened to their adventures and tales these men told him with such awe that he could hardly believe it. Such tales of grandeur and adventure seemed like something straight out of myths or legends but these men had the battle scars to prove it- an odd bunch of men who told the young man that they where going to transverse the grandline from this point on. They all had their goals to achieve so he told the young man why not have friends to help along that way? Of course Hayden agreed with his newfond friend and hero- he bid them a farewell so he could retreat to the broken down hut that was his old home. That night he slept a bit more peaceful than he had in a while- but come morning all this new found happiness would revert back to despair for when he woken up and went into town he saw the crew he had met standing for execution; the world government deemed them criminals and for that they were judged with death. As Hayden pushed his way to the front of the crowd he barely arrived in time to see the Captain that had reignited that flame in him to give him a smile and speak some words that at that moment he didn’t hear- the world was silent to him for the third time he lost something dear to himself. As the execution was carried out the young man could only drop to his knees silently as he at that moment made a promise; a promise to become so well known and powerful that even if he was defeated his name would become legend- he would grow so strong he could stop these injustices in the world.

It felt like hours as he kneeled their people passing silently wondering what young Hayden was thinking or even doing, but eventually he stood up making his way home to his shack. He couldn’t stand this island anymore- after today he couldn’t be here. As he went into his home he gathered his small belongings and in doing so he knocked over a lamp which just so happenly had been covering what looked like a trap door- curiosity got the best of him as he descending into the depths carrying a lantern. There he found something that would change his life forever, a large sword remained encased in glass with a note from what looked to be his father handwriting although a bit faded. As he picked it up to read it went something like this:

Desmond, my dear son, I hope you can forgive me for leaving but that island I could no longer bare- I hope you understand my choices when you are older. You’ve proven to be such a strong young man I can only leave you the one true item you deserve, a weapon passed down our families for decades- treat it well for it will only grow to be as strong as you. Please my son, follow your own path to greatness. I love you.

Hayden had remained clutching the tight paper his hand shaking slightly as tears flowed down the young man’s face. His hand shaking as he shakily put the paper in his bag, perhaps as a reminder to as why he had to leave. On a desk next to the sword was a small bronze pendant with a dragon engraved into the center with a moon above the dragon. He had no idea of the meaning but he guessed his dad left it for him, he took it placing it around his neck before opening the case of the sword equipping it’s strange back holster and the large sword that was slightly longer than himself. As he left the basement he made his way out his house before looking at it one last time- he could never return here perhaps only if he was going to go to the grandline but for now… never again.


Using the money he had saved and his father left for him to survive with he purchased a ship heading off to achieve his destiny- perhaps he would become a captain or join another crew. But for now all he knew he was a pirate at heart and now he had a goal to obtain and anyone that got in the way would be bodied if they needed to be. The man had his fire back and nothing would stop it.




Abilities and Possessions
Combat:

Hayden is a rough neck when it comes to fighting, preferring to end a battle quickly rather than drag it out. He looks for the enemy weakness and try to exploit it to a point, he's willing to go the extra distance to the win. His primary style is fighting with a two handed sword but has decided that he cannot rely on just that taking up secondary hand to hand as a defense and offensive. If you knock him down he'll get up till he can't get up no more.


Weaponry:

Diabolus Armate (Devil Arm)- This massive sword that Des inherited from his father and his father before that is a sword that overall length is eighty inches barely seven inches longer then himself. This Blade is his signature blade something he covets more than anything. The hilt of this massive weapon alone is five inches having a wrapped and thick handle for the wielder to use for grip, move up to the guard the blade has a rectangular guard that is just as pronounced as the rest of the blade and thick. Now we arrive at the business end of the weapon, the thick blade contributing to most of it’s weight, length, and power is something few people ever forget when they witness it in battle. The core of the blade is pushed in slightly with the edges justing up a bit higher before focusing into a sharp point. This blade has traveled down Des family since it was first gotten into his family hands, rumor has it that the blade has soaked in so much human blood that it craves blood- those who own it will not find a peaceful death or life. Then again this is just a rumor. Also this is made of iron.

Harden Leather Cape- This is a relatively simple concept, he picked it up after a bad call with Marines, the merchant claimed that the leather cape could stop bullets- going on a whim he bought it. It turns out it does stop bullets… from piercing your skin. Tier 1 material.

Iron Chest/Pauldrons- Just some basic iron armor he picked up along his travels that just add a bit of protection. Never can be too careful.

Items:

Compass- Relatively self explantory.

Satchel- Surprisingly even a pirate that travels needs something to hold his goods.

Fresh food/water- Self Explantory

Salmon Class - These are your everyday rowboats/rafts/canoes, they are very small in size and can basically house 2 to 3 people and usually comes with 3 to 4 barrels, a single sail and a set of paddles. The Salmon Class is restricted for Blues use only.

General:

Fate of the Swift (3 Traits) - By placing traits in Fated, you lock them until the next time you earn a trait. You may put as many traits as you have into fated. In the meantime, you get a temporary boost of (# of traits in fated, multiplied by 3) to your speed stat.

Professional:

'Tis But A Scratch! (1 Trait) - Weapon specialists are often used to fighting against other weapon specialists in close combat. Thus their chances of being injured by such weapons increase drastically compared to others. These particular characters are used to fighting so much under those conditions that they can actually ignore the effects of pain much better than their sissy counterparts and fight on.

Combat - Need to describe his combat. 3-4 Sentances will usually do fine.

Devil Arm - Specify that it's Iron, since you specified that its just a rumor the flavor text is fine if a bit wordy. It's free as a two-handed Iron Blade.

Leather Cape - Don't need all the changing the damage type stuff, as that's normal with leather/cloth armor. Just specify it is Tier I material. Costs you 150,000 Beli.

Iron Chest/Shoulder Armor - Costs you 150,000 Beli as its not quite half-arms, but more then just chest.

Everything else looks good. Please update your gains/losses with the prices of your items and update your Beli total- link to this post for gains/losses.
