I was tempted to change Jeri to a girl so he's more relatable/gender balance among the crew (secondary since the Straw Hats themselves are mostly dudes), but I stuck with male as I'd no longer be able to call him "Dr. Chode" or "Lollipopcock." One important thing I changed, though, was his Devil Fruit; it's now a Paramecia that regenerates the crew's missing limbs, so Celain can safely tear them off and gouge their eyes in the RP.
Giving up the Maimu-Maimu no Mi was hard, since its design was perfect. The outer seeds are black teardrops so it incorporates the mime aspect while still looking like a strawberry.
Name: Jericho Lollipopcock
Epithet: Jeri, Eric, Jerrick, Jerichode, Dr. Chode
Bounty: $110
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Species: Human
Appearance: With the grizzled hair of a withering man whose once-striking black locks caught every bit of dust as they aged, Jericho doesn't have a mote of life left in his 6'1" frame. His half-lidded eyes are dry, dead, and tired with prominent dark circles, while scruff jumps the edges of his defeated face and retreats under his chin. His white lab coat, brown dress shoes, jeans, and collared shirt are redeeming touches of sophistication that complement his unkempt appearance and give him the appeal of a nonchalant, messy but attractive man.
Personality: Jericho is renowned throughout his land and those surrounding it for his medical skills, but the reputation exhausts him more than it fulfills him. He's deadpan, overworked, and persistently bored, taking frequent, solitary strolls by the ocean and looking out into the distance, hoping for a nice change of pace. But his unassuming demeanor hides a sinister perversion, and he prefers his patients wear as little as the emotionless expression on his face. When he's staring at the sea he's actually thinking of pirate booty, and the "nice change of pace" he seeks refers to the heightened beating of his heart and increased throbbing of his... Fuck you, I'm not finishing this sentence. Thought the lewd doc was gonna be some cringy, drooling creep who can't mask his desires? Dude, he's a licensed professional.
Affiliations: Your mom
Role: Doctor
Weapons: Chains, whips, rope, and shackles. And Hardened Beads, but unlike Matt Morgan's, his are between his legs. Nah... I'm just fucking with ya; he carries a machete with a Seastone finish, a gift from a wealthy client.
Devil Fruit
Name: Seicho-Seicho no Mi (Growth-Growth Fruit)
Description: A fat, tan pepper with fleshy roots exploding from the skin.
Type: Paramecia
Powers: Enhances the speed of his growth or that of whomever he touches.
Weaknesses: A disproportionately enlarged body part leaves his smaller self vulnerable, and increasing his size gives foes a bigger strike zone.
How it was acquired: A gift from a shadowed benefactor related to a patient he'd treated.
Techniques:
- Beefcake - Evenly buffs up his body, improving his defenses and heightening the power of his blows.
- Giant Limb - Swells his arm or leg to a gargantuan size.
- Regeneration - Accelerates his or his teammates' recovery, healing wounds and restoring missing limbs in seconds.
- Cancer - Rests his hand on enemies and excites their cells to the point that they pop.
Home Island: Sugarvag Island
Backstory: He'd lived a pretty sheltered existence until the death of his parents from a mysterious illness, which caused the listless child prodigy with nowhere to apply his skills to commit himself to medicine and cure the disease. The passing years eroded his confidence and convinced him that it was impossible, and the professed man of science gradually descended into the depths of folklore, poring over whatever banned texts he could get ahold of. That was when he learned of the eight Forbidden Fruits, a fabled fourth class of Devil Fruits whose power bent the very rules of reality. There was one that raised the dead, another that stripped the Earth of its oceans and amassed them into a behemoth with the user at its core, a third that allowed travel between worlds, and many more. They were nothing more than legends, but Jericho resolved he'd find the crop that revived the deceased. His day job gave him problems of its own, however. A nobleman came to see him one day, and when Dr. Chode asked him to strip, he charged him $100. Jericho refused to pay and told the man to get off his high horse, adding that charging his doctor money to see his naked body made him look like a prostitute. The next day Jeri saw a wanted poster with his name and a $110 bounty, 100 for the display and 10 for calling him a whore. Bi the way... he's bisexual.
No since Luffy doesn't exist in this AU :/ I was thinking the guy from the old version movies of planet of the apes.
Monkey D. Luffy and Monkey-Dick Luffy don't have to be the same person...
