Appearance: Standing at five foot eight, Taiyou looks fairly average, minus the cyborg parts. He has bright scarlet hair in a messy but short cut style, and tan skin. His eyes are green, but when he transforms into half-way, his eyes turn black, and his sclera turn yellow. He weighs 120 pounds, being rather thin and wirey. He has long thin fingers but average size hands, and his feet are big. His lips are a pale pink, and his tongue is a bright red. His nose is not pronounced, and he does not have deep facial features. His eyes are slightly triangular, and his mouth is average size.
He normally dresses in a grey burlap coat, with a bare chest, and cheap brown pants with torn up heels.
History: Destined to deliver newspapers for the rest of his life, Taiyoumaru wanted to do something more exciting. So he asked his grandfather what he could do for excitement and his grandfather told him to hunt for weird fruit in the forest. He spent days looking for it, and he found a cave with fruit growing in it. He walked deeper and deeper into it, looking for the weird fruit until he found one at the end. It was guarded by a cyborg, who refused to let anyone take any the fruit. He snuck passed it, snatching the fruit, and running away from the cave. The cyborg chased him, but he ran faster and made it to his grandfather's house. He showed him the fruit, and got quite the reaction.
Asking if the fruit he nabbed was rare, he was told that it was not the right kind of rare fruit, and that he was stupid for risking his life to take it. However, than his grandfather gave him a fruit that was special (a devil fruit) saying that he deserved it for trying. Taiyoumaru was going to eat it, but decided to save it for dinner. His grandfather took him to a fancy restaraunt, as to celebrate the fact he was alive. Sunny had the fruit on a plate, and poked it with his fork, but a man burst in, and shot him in the chest. His grandfather, a hunter, shot the hunter in the leg.
However, the attacker was not finished. He fired five shots, and three of them hit Taiyoumaru's grandfather, one in the left arm, one in the chest, and the last one in the head. His grandfather died, but the attacker, ran off without stealing the fruit. While Sunny did not know the attacker's intentions, he knew to protect the fruit, so as he was slowly dying from blood loss, he grabbed the fruit. A doctor was called in, but this doctor was not an ordinary doctor. That day was the day Taiyoumaru met Dr. Franklin Silberstein, and became a cyborg.
Franklin Silberstein gave him another chance at life by implanting a cyborg heart, but, after being asked multiple times, he gave Sunny different self-defence mechanisms. Then, Sunny buried his grandfather, enscribing the headstone, "grandpa, my mentor, my rolemodel, and my hero". Afterwords, he ate the special fruit given to him by went out to find the man who killed his grandfather, said goodbye to Dr. Franklin, and headed to mock town for information on his target, on a stolen ship.
Personality: Taiyoumaru is a naive boy, who is very compassionate, and does not get angry easily. He is rather simple, and has no regard for the law, as the law didn't save his grandfather. He has only ever been filled with rage once, and that was the day his grandfather died. He recognizes blind hunger for revenge is wrong, and is prepared to sacrifice his revenge to save his morals. He is almost never sad, and slightly optimistic, leading to his nickname, sunny.
