The Character
Personality: A generally stoic man with his posture and stride walking with confidence everywhere he goes. Though not much for jokes, Roland still makes the occasional pun or two, when the time is right. In combat, he still remains calm and collected, rarely losing his nerves when things get tough. In his short time as a bounty hunter, Roland has discovered that the ends justify the means. Willing to go to great lengths for the most dangerous of bounties to ensure that they're captured, so long as the World Government's laws permit his course of actions.

Hometown: Loguetown

History: Roland Carter was born in Loguetown, a father and a mother to take care of him. He was an only child, largely keeping to himself as a boy while watching his father work as a Blacksmith. What days weren't quiet were spent trying to steer away the rowdy pirates from their shop. Though generally successful, there came a day where the Carter family needed money to pay off their debtors. Unfortunately, one debtor was very impatient, having his father kidnapped and sold off. Years went by before eventually, there wasn't much evidence to suggest he didn't go willingly.

The forge still required someone to work, forcing Roland to take up the mantle as, 'Man Of The House'. His mother was unable to keep her faith to his father, marrying a merchant and going away from Loguetown. Unfortunately, the merchant wanted to start a new family, leaving Roland behind with enough money to keep the forge running for a few years. But those years came quickly, Roland needed a new job to keep his father's dream alive. A bounty hunter by the name of Narwhal Longhorn came by one day, offering Roland the opportunity of a life time. He'll buy Roland's shop in exchange for him becoming his cabin boy for two years. At the age of eighteen, Roland went away with Narwhal, out of Loguetown and into the great Ocean.

For two years, Narwhal Longhorn taught Roland the ins and out of hunting down bounty. He even got to join in on a few, steadily developing a favoritism to using his hands to help rather than with gun or a weapon. At the beginning of the third year, Narwhal left Roland in the company of a friend, Suwei. For two whole years, Roland learned the basics of Martial Arts, honing his craft and learning how to handle things better while unarmed. In those two years, Narwhal came back to take his former Cabin Boy back to Loguetown.

Upon his return, Narwhal returned ownership of the shop back to Roland, willing to cover the costs to keep it under his name for one year. Within that year, Roland is expected to cover the costs of his shop and home. With the start of his bounty hunting career, Roland needed to put together a crew. A doctor, able to heal them when required. A First Mate, his second in command when he isn't able to carry out his duties as leader. A shipwright, someone able to keep their boat repaired and stable-- Once they have one fitted to take them out. Lastly, a chef. Someone to keep the crew fed with their supplies. Others have joined his crew, with the purpose in mind of aligning themselves with his style of bounty hunting. A chef swordsmen by the name of Asmodeus answered his ad, solving one of the many crew positions left to be filled.

With his shop as the acting base of operations, it was time to put his crew to the test, to stress and expand upon their limits into a greater, singular unity. A crew that revolved around bounty hunting, to be willing to go as far as necessary to accomplish their hunts.

Traits:
Hardened Fighter (1 Trait) - Through excessive training in breaking planks, punching rocks, and all those durability-building exercises, the character’s arms, up to their elbows, and their legs, up to their knees, have gained flesh that is as hard as iron, making them much more resistant to physical damage.

Signature Technique (1 Trait) - This trait makes one particular technique special, a trademark move of the character. This signature technique is always of the natural maximum rank that the character is allowed, but does not cost any Technique Points.
