History:
Being the first child of Adrienne Edwards, he was also the child of Rin Hunter, Adrienne’s first wife who died in child-birth. Phinneas stuck close to his father’s side and was a very timid and shy young boy. As he got older, he felt his half-siblings were more favored than himself and he became incredibly jealous of them. He began keeping to himself and worked down with the cook in the galley. For fun he would train in sword fighting and built up his strength and stamina. One day, after a recent expedition, he found the Saisei Saisei no Mi and ate it, gaining the power to regenerate. After his father died, he took on a role as Oceana’s second guardian and advisor.
Personality:
Sarcastic, suspicious of everything, and sometimes just outright mean, Phin is not a very personable character. He’s always questioning everyone’s motives and keeps mostly to himself. He is very easily provoked and annoyed.
Making any sort of meaningful bond with him is a near impossible task. He is very distant and introverted. Mostly he keeps to himself, muttering angrily about one thing or another. Some wonder if he even has the ability to smile or enjoy himself at all
Ship: Ethereal
Ship Flag: Glaring skull, fangs, open-mouthed with a star between the teeth, crossing cutlasses and a crescent moon in the background
Devil Fruit: Saisei Saisei no Mi
type: Paramecia
effect: This devil's fruit has a singular, passive ability attached to it. Initially, it can seem like the best thing in the world. The power granted by this fruit is that of instantaneous regeneration of any cell structure. This process is rapid enough that the user can not even be decapitated if it were tried. (Of course, if the blade is wider than their neck, it works. Guillotine anyone?) However great this may sound, there are a number of negative effects the user takes on because of this ability. First and foremost, the user still experiences pain. Although it disperses quickly, it can be a distraction against them. Secondly, the ability does nothing to lessen the force of attacks. If a user of this fruit is hit hard enough to be knocked out or sent flying, you can expect that to happen. Out in the open ocean, this is somewhat of a problem for a devil's fruit user. As the third point, the rapid healing will remove bullets and shrapnel from the body, but not the same for infectious diseases. Since the wound has no time to bleed or even have disinfectant applied, the chance of any such disease in a user of this fruit is significantly increased. It is advised that they have constant access to antibiotics. Finally, the greatest negative effect of this fruit is that of halted muscle growth. Generally, a person becomes stronger by first weakening and or slightly tearing their muscles through physical exertion. Since a user of this fruit will have his or her muscles healed before they can be significantly weakened or torn, they can not gain any strength. It would be rather problematic for someone if they were to have eaten this fruit as a child considering this fact. They will not however, become weaker overall. They will still suffer fatigue from a battle however.
