Joshua "Josh" Saros

Name: Joshua "Josh" Saros

Age: 25

Bounty: None yet.

Species: Human.

Occupation: Tinkerer/mechanic

Allegiance: Pirate

Home Village/Ocean: West Blue, Acean Island.

Appearance: (For picture, see avatar) Standing just over 6 feet tall, and topped off with spikey brown hair and sporting a goatee, Josh is always dressed casually, shunning the usual seafaring clothes for what he feels comfortable in. This is usually baggy trousers, a black (Unbuttoned) shirt and Black tank top underneath. His boots finish his outfit. A pair of glasses are the final touch, although they're mainly for show as he doesn't need them.

History: Growing up in his small village was stifling. This was what annoyed him the most. With such a small population of just over 100, Acean Island's inhabitants knew each other well, which meant that it felt like he was always being watched. Josh hated that feeling, prefering instead to walk out of the village and along the cliftops of the small Island, enjoying the peace and quiet. A small cave in the cliff face provided his hideaway, and allowed him to indulge his hobby of building and inventing small (albeit, not all that useful) items.
Several years passed, and though several villagers complained as watches and pipes and rather unremarkable items went missing, although noone was ever caught. Most just assumed that it was the regular influx of pirates as they made their way towards the grand line.
Unfortunately, the marines believed that with the constant reports of pirates the town was controlled by them and attacked as a pirate ship was docked in the town. Josh was working in his cave, tinkering when there was a loud explosion, his equipment bouncing around. He began to make his way towards the entrance when a second explosion rocked the cave, causing it to collapse around him.
It would be several hours before he regained conciousness. He had been lucky, being trapped in loose rubble, and proceeded to dig himself free. As he made his way towards the village, he could smell the burning houses. The marines had killed everyone, being lead by a ruthless captain. Villagers lay with swords lodged in them. Realising that he was now the only person left, he refused to stay a moment longer, and made his way to the docks. A lone rowboat lay upturned in the sand, a large hole smashed in it. He patched it up and set off, but not before raiding the nearby ship for supplies. There wasn't much, but a weird fruit lay by itself in a sealed barrel floating in the surf. It was only later that he realised it was one of the Demon fruit, although he had eaten it by then.


Personality: Josh has always had to be the mature one in the family after his father left when he was a kid. He has a habit of correcting people, much to their annoyance, but he can act very childish, especially when he plays jokes on people.
For the most part, he acts seriously and will try to help anyone who needs it, at the expense of his own time and safety. If theres any machines around, he'll try figure out what makes it tick.When annoyed, he becomes vary sarcastic, trying to put someone down to make himself feel better, although this just makes him feel worse. He despises the marines, lumping them together with the captain who ordered his village wiped out.

Ship: Currently just a leaky rowboat

Ship Flag: None

Devil Fruit: Tk-Tk Fruit
type: Paramecia
effect: Telikinises

Special Abilities: Josh is more adept at scouting than fighting, due to his sneaking around on his old island.

Learned Techniques (Keep it 1-25):
Has only discovered the abilities up to (1) so far:
*Note that he cannot use this on other people*

1 ) Kinetic Slow. Reduces his speed to limit injury from falling/being flung.
2 ) Kinetic Thrust: Increases his Jumping height by pushing down at the ground as he jumps with telikinesis. (10 meter max height)
3 ) Kinetic shift: Moves a nearby object in the way of an incoming attack.
4 ) Kinetic sphere: Creates a small sphere half a foot from Josh's body that halts small items moving at relatively slow speeds (about 30mph). (Stops rain or sand, but can't stop bullets for example. Cannot stop a sand attack though as this is moving too fast)
5 )Tk Heft: Helps Josh by lifting a large object he is also lifting with his hands, such as a heavy sword.
6 ) Kinetic spin: Rotates objects around Josh at increasing speeds, and potentially dealing a good amount of damage.
7 ) Kinetic manouvers: Can throw himself out of the way of a fast moving attack (that he can see) easier than if he moved normally.
8 ) Kinetic Boost: Increases his stamina by using his ability to push himself forward when running, or take some strain when swinging items.

Weapons/Items: A sword he found lying on the ground in his destroyed village.

Goals: Fed up with living on such a small island most of his life, Josh wishes to explore as many new lands as he can, logging them in a book.
