Devil Fruits

http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Devil_...

Alright, welcome to Devil Fruit 101. So first, please read the article so I don't need to go over the basics. Now then, let's start making suggestions. I'll address them by rarity.

Paramecia:
This fruit is for the more adventurous role players. Here, you can show how creative you are. Literally anything is possible. Due to that, I hope you try to create fruits that have not been featured in the anime or manga. If you want to copy a power from another anime, that's fine as long as it fits into this RP. Once again, I prefer creativity, so try to change it so it seems original.

Zoan:
There are multiple classes of Zoan Fruits. In this little section, I'll group together the Normal and Ancient types. So far, people have two modes: Hybrid and Full transformation. There is also a third that I find intriguing: Awakened. Don't be afraid to stretch the abilities a bit (for example, maybe a kangaroo has an endless pocket dimension in its pouch). Also, I am going to allow the creation of a new class of Zoan-type fruits, known as...

Hybrid Zoan Fruits:
Since most Zoan-type Fruits are weak in comparison to the other types, I thought we might as well create a new type so Zoan-type Fruits have a chance to keep up. This type of fruit combines two Normal Zoan Fruits. In other words, you cannot combine any Ancient or Mythological Fruits together. This type will be rarer than Ancient Zoan Fruits but not nearly as rare as Mythological Fruits.

Logia:
Logia fruits are on average the strongest Devil Fruit class. There are several Paramecia and Zoan-type fruit users who can beat Logia-types. Logia fruits also cannot become stronger through training; in other words, this fruit has a limit that is easy to reach. For that reason, I don't like this fruit since it's hard to be creative and it doesn't leave much room for character development. However, if you want to use this, feel free to. I just hope your character has an intriguing personality and/or history.

Mythological Zoan:
I love mythology, so this is personally my favorite type of fruit. Just like the other Zoan Fruits, don't be afraid to stretch the abilities a bit. Feel free to search for the cultural significance of the species itself rather than only the mythological animal and combine the two. For example, you could do Aquila, the eagle that carried Zeus's thunderbolts. It could have lightning powers, but eagles were known to be the King of the Skies, so it could have control of the weather. They were also known as solar animals, so maybe the character could have some laser-related abilities.

It is difficult to decide how many powers your character can have. What is considered OP for a Vice-Admiral may be alright for an Admiral and so on. Please have an explanation ready if a mod asks you why the character has a certain power. We may have to reject it if it is unbeatable. As long as the fruit can be defeated, it should be alright.

Titles:
Feel free to use nearly any of the titles used in the anime. I myself will be using "Ace". Please don't use titles like "Pirate King" or "Golden Lion".

History:
While I love it when someone works hard on their character, please be aware that even if you add multiple phases to your character's history, we'll probably only get to one at most. So try to keep a central theme to the history.

Remember that powerful One Piece characters are typically very tall, so the average might be around seven to eight feet if your character is strong.
