Toro Yokozuna
Basic Character Information
First Name: Toro
Middle Name/Initial:
Last Name: Yokozuna
Epithet: Waka Toro
Age/Birthdate: 5/15/1800
Gender: Male
Race: Fishman ; Great White Shark
Faction: Pirate
Crew Position: Vice Captain
Physical Appearance
Height: 10’4”
Weight: 810
Hair Style: Pompadour
Hair Color: Blonde/Black
Eye Color: Black
Scars/Tattoos: Traditional Yakuza Sleeves ; Scar on his right eye and cheek
Clothing and Accessories: Toro wears the traditional sumo fundoshi underneath a decorative, flame pattern loincloth fashioned with a rope belt and a tanto. Along with his signature sunglasses that rarely, if ever come off, the yakuza also wears an expensive coat draped over his shoulders that bears the kanji for “Waka Toro” in red. When not fighting he also wears a pair of geta sandals on his feet.
Description:
Toro is an extremely large individual as if he was tailored made by the gods to dominate at sumo, having been blessed with strength and flexibility even his fellow Fishman would envy. His barrel sized arms are decorated in traditional yakuza sleeves, something his family had a long tradition of doing. Dating back to their days as vassals in a far off land known as Wano.
Toro styles his hair in a deviant pompadour fashion, dying a streak of it blonde along with his sideburns and eyebrows.
Due to an incident in the past, Toro is missing half of his pinky finger on his left hand.
The Past
Main Traits: Honorable, Loyal, Chivalrous, Brutal, Violent, Serious
Likes: Fighting, Alcohol, Hardboiled Men, Knives
Dislikes: Disloyalty, Breaking Code, Disrespect, Weaklings
Unique laugh: Wakakakakakaka
Hometown: Namakura Island
Personality: Toro tends to take everything seriously, almost too seriously, like too the point he carries a tanto for the sole purpose of removing fingers for infractions. Which, when coupled with his tendency to use yakuza slang and furrowed brows give off quite the intimidating aura. Though he does tend too loosen up after a few drinks or during a good fight, he still can’t help the scary faces he makes.
Like most yakuza, Toro holds to a strict code that he would rather face certain death than dare too break it, holding his honor far above his life. Though this should not be confused for innate kindness, the latest in the long line of Yokozuna’s is quite the brutal enforcer and has earned a reputation as an infamous local legend after receiving his first bounty. Part of the reason for this stems from Toro’s own love for fighting, though he only enjoys fighting strong opponents.
He is also quite hair obsessed, going so far as too carry a switchblade comb to constantly maintain the perfect level of grooming and avoiding getting wet whenever possible.
- History:
Born into the Yokozuna Crime family, an offshoot fishman clan descended from Wano that has since taken up residence on Nakamara island. Establishing themselves as the local yakuza generations ago, having sold their protection to the poverty stricken citizens, leaving those who could not afford it to the mercy of the ruthless long arm slaver guilds. Since then, they have grown into a small criminal empire, expanding into loaning and gambling, and even sometimes shady dealings with the World Government. Though they prefer to stay in their small corner of Paradise and not bite the hand that feeds them.
Toro however, was anything but small, having killed his mother coming into the world with his sheer size alone. Though it was sad, his father took this as a good omen, being quite proud of the colossus like infant. From that moment on, Toro was groomed to be the next family head, something his father made quite apparent in his methods. Drilling their code of honor and the importance of following into him, over and over as the years went by.
Like the good son he was, Toro soldiered on, carrying out missions and tasks for his father and the family, mainly using his great strength and size to crush any pretenders or traitors that appeared. When the loan sharks collected money, they brought the boy along from the time he was six on, his size at that time rivaling that of most adult human men if not bigger. It was here that he perfected the brutal form of combat he employs today, something that took years and years of practice. Practice that took place during life or death fights, sometimes fights where something far more important than that was wagered.
This led to somewhat of a rebellious period during his teens and early twenties that sometimes still persist even too this day. Having been quite the delinquent, Toro picked fights with the entire upper echelon of the Yokozuna Clan, losing only to his own father. Causing the boy to skip town and venture to the nearby islands, wrecking havoc with his young truant friends.
These days Toro spends most of his time running missions for his father or taking over more and more of his less punchy duties. Mounds and mounds of complaints and paperwork, books to check and money to count, fingers to sever. The same thing day in and day out, leading Toro to question is this really is the life for him.

Weight: 250
Hair Style: Ponytail
Hair Color: Blonde
Eye Color: Blue
Scars/Tattoos: Snake wrapped around left leg
Clothing and Accessories: Lyre wears a custom marine styled uniform with denim styled shorts and a loose fitting open marine waist coat. She also fondly wears a marine baseball cap with her pony stuck through the snap in the back and a pair of combat boots.
Description:
The Past
Main Traits: Free Spirited, Fun, Head Strong, Confident, Impulsive
Likes: Fighting, Alcohol, Snow, Helping People, Competition
Dislikes: Commitment, Pirates, Witch of the Waves/Kuja, Losing
Unique laugh: Shikahahaha
Hometown: Amazon Lily
Personality: Lyre is young woman with a strong will, preferring to follow her heart over her head. Generally making impulsive decisions based on feelings rather than planning ahead and thinking things out prior to acting.
Competition drives her forward, loving a good fight just to prove who's stronger in one on one combat. And while she hates losing, nothing gets her more fired up than a rematch with a former rival.
Due to her childhood and marine background, she has a dislike for all general pirates and a certain distain for Kuja in particular. One day she even hopes to take on the Shichibukai Copperhead in single combat.
Free Spirited and fun, Lyre loves to drink and party, having a voracious appetite for feasting.
- History:
Lyre was born to her mother on Amazon Lily where she spent the first four years of her life, living as an outcast hidden deep in the mountains with her parents. There she lived a quiet yet happy life with her mother and father, a rare thing for a Kuja. Until one day, they were found out by her mothers kin, having been hunted for breaking the ancient laws.
Having been forced out, Lyre with her surviving Mother fled to the sea in a makeshift raft, ending up on Rusukaina off the coast. There, she was separated from her mother who was intercepted by the Kuja pirates and executed on the spot.
After spending a few miserable weeks alone, barely clinging to life, Lyre happened upon the first bit of luck in her life. Being found by a marine contingent led by the legendary Vagabond Gull, taking the girl under his metaphorical wing and raising her on the ship as a marine brat. It was during this time that she ate her mythical zoan fruit and earned a name in the marines. Eventually being assigned to the 69th Battalion at her surrogate fathers request.

Basic Character Information
Starting Bonus: Pocket Change | [url=Link to your starting bonus roll goes here][Starting Bonus Roll][/url] [ Replace this with Dragonheart | Traded [url=link the trading forum trade link here]here[/url]. ]
First Name: Lyre
Middle Name/Initial:
Last Name: Winterberry
Epithet:
Age: 20 [ Replace this with birthdate.]
Gender: Female
Race: Kuja
Faction: Marine
Crew Position: Scouts Commander
Physical Appearance
Height: 7'7"
Weight: 265
Hair Style: Ponytail
Hair Color: Blonde
Eye Color: Blue
Scars/Tattoos: Snake wrapped around left leg
Clothing and Accessories: Lyre wears a custom marine styled uniform with denim styled shorts and a loose fitting open marine waist coat with the sleeves removed. She also fondly wears a marine baseball cap with her pony stuck through the snap in the back and a pair of combat boots. While in both ears she wears a pair of Christmas bell earrings and braces on both forearms.
Description:
Lyre is a very curvy woman, armed with a large pair of melon crushing thighs and a large set of melons all her own. As a Kuja she stands well over an average human’s height regardless of gender, along with a clearly defined muscle tone. Winterberry is a physically imposing woman that is only magnified by her fiery personality. Her long, curly blonde hair reaches to her lower back and is almost always pulled back into a large ponytail. She has pale skin and bright blue eyes, resulting in an overall attractive appearance.
The Past
Main Traits: Free Spirited, Short Tempered, Confident, Impulsive, Empathetic
Likes: Fighting, Alcohol, Snow, Helping People, Competition, Hunting, Nature
Dislikes: Commitment, Kuja, Losing, The hopeless
Unique laugh: Shikahahaha
Hometown: Amazon Lily
Personality: Reckless and short tempered, Lyre tends to act before she thinks which more often than not causes more trouble than its worth. She’s also loud, rude, and extremely competitive, the kind of volatile mixture that results in a lot of unnecessary fighting. Despite this rough exterior though, she does have the best intentions for her comrades and civilians in mind.
While Winterberry cares deeply for the suffering of others, she dislikes those who refuse to fight back against their oppressors. While simultaneously holding a deep respect for those willing to improve themselves or their surroundings in order to get stronger.
Highly competitive, the only thing she enjoys more than a good fight is a rematch against someone she has deemed as rival in battle. This quirk unfortunately shows up more often than it should, going s far as to let an enemy escape in hopes of fighting a stronger version of them in the future. Winterberry has quite a bit of confidence in her fighting ability. Having been taught rokushiki at a young age and trained with her rare class of devil fruit for sometime as well, she tends to bite off more than she can chew. Eager to see who is the strongest regardless of the circumstance.
Winterberry enjoys drinking, almost a little too much, spending much of her free time intoxicated. In this state, she has little concern for the personal space of others, spending much of her time leaning on them or giving them bear hugs.
- History:
Lyre was born to her mother on Amazon Lily where she spent the first four years of her life, living as an outcast hidden deep in the mountains along with her father, something quite rate for her race. Living out as normal of a life as they could without being found out. Until one day, while her mother was out hunting, the warriors discovered Lyre and her father tucked away in their home. Her father executed and she was taken away, leaving her mother to pick up the pieces when she returned.
From there, her mother staged a successful rescue mission, managing to whisk her daughter away and make it off of the mainland. Something she thought she did undetected. Unfortunately, the Kuja pirates were in tow, using their glorious beast driven vessel. Having been forced out, Lyre with her surviving Mother fled to the sea in a makeshift raft, ending up on Rusukaina off the coast. There, she was separated from her mother when they were attacked by a raging sea king. From there, the young Winterberry drifted to “safety” as she washed ashore on the savage island.
After spending a few miserable weeks alone, barely clinging to life, Lyre happened upon the first bit of luck in her life. Though at the time, all she knew was that she had found the worst tasting fruit of her life. Of course it wasn’t until much later that she would discover the significance of this incident.
She was later found by a marine contingent led by the legendary Vagabond Gull while visiting the mainland on a marine mission. From here the grizzled veteran was stuck with the girl, no matter what he did to get rid of her, she always came back stronger and ready for more. Having tried many a time to abandon her an island or leave her in the care of another. Eventually acknowledging the girls talent, the Gull eventually had her learned in the ways of Rokushiki and taught her more about her the powers she had unknowingly obtained all those years prior.
After officially enlisting in the marines at the age of 12, Lyre quickly rose up the ranks and ended up being assigned to the 69th Battalion at her surrogate father’s request.
