Appearance: Enma is a somewhat short man, standing at barely 5.5 feet and weighting 60 kilograms. His head is covered with a giant black bush that he calls 'Hair'. His hair reaches down to his knee-height and is messy, wild, bushy and tangly. He wears a traditional green robe that doesn't extend to his legs over an ordinary marine shirt. The robe's sleeves are very long and they go way past Enma's hand. He wears a pair of black baggy fighting pants and he's either walking with sandals or bare feet. He has a single gold earing on his left ear. His eyes are brown. Enma's walking is the perfect example of lazyness, hunched back with his hands dangling from both sides of his body. His green eyes have fainted blue marks under them that people get when they lack hours of sleep, in Enma's case, he always lacks a few more hours of sleep. His robe is pressed against Enma's waist by a red cloth belt to stop the robe from interrupting in Enma's movements.
History: Arc Road island is a peaceful island in the South Blue. It is named Arc Road as a reference to Noah's Arc that contained many animals. Like it, the island is the habitant of an endless number of species. Enma was born on this island to a pair of loving parents. As all other residents of Arc Road, Enma was educated to live in peace with nature and his surroundings. He spent many years meditating and playing with different animals in the island.
When Enma was 13, a crew of pirates invaded the island after hearing about it's wonderful animals. The pirates were following a doctor who wished to use SIQ on the island's many animals to create himself the perfect minion. The doctor was named Riley Tompson, a wanted criminal under a bounty of 50,000,000 belis and his crew was worth a total of 55,000,000 belis. The pirates took animals to their ship, greater numbers in each day, and performed the experiments on them. After a few years of experiments, weird animals appeared on the island.
The villagers, who noticed the strange animals, sent a search party to find the source of this mystery. Enma, now 16, was a part of that party and was already a skilled fighter thanks to his devil fruit. After a week of searches the party reached the pirates' research ship. Seeing the horrible experiments the doctor performed on the animals, the villagers decided to fight for the animal's freedom to keep nature's balance.
The people of the island revoked and attacked the marine quarter. The large pirate crew fought back in the battle that was soon to be the greatest blood bath of Arc Road. Many people and many animals died in the battle, the villagers needed someone to reverse the bowl, and there was Enma. Enma managed to sneak into the reaserch quarter and release all of the imprisoned animals. The mutated animals ran wild around the ship and allowed the villagers to win against the odds. That is when Enma met Bushy and Smarty. The marines escaped the island, leaving the mutated animals for the villagers to train. From that day forward Enma was known as "The savior of Arc Road".
At the age of 21, after being motivated by Smarty who hated his lazy attitude, Enma left his village to the Grand Line to become a marine. He reache dthe conclusion that pirates are breaking the balance of nature by disobeying order, a crime that he wished to fix. The rumor of the man who took down the "Mad Pirates" was quickly spreading around the Grand Line.
Personality: Enma can be nominated to be the lazyest man on earth, even without his devil fruit's effect. He spends most of his time either sleeping or eating. He doesn't do anything he doesn't need to and barely does the things he does need to do. His only source of motivation is Smarty, his parrot, who barks orders at him whenever he sleeps to much. unfortunately for him, Bushy, his favourite bed, listens to Smarty as well. This results in Enma getting launched off of Bushy whenever Smarty wants. Other than that Enma is a caring person who adores nature and all animals. You can bet on his help if he's awake.
Ship: The Bastion
Ship Flag: The marine logo with a halo above it and a sword below it
Devil Fruit: Saru Saru No Mi - Model: SlothType: Zoan
Effect: - Spoiler:
This fruit allows the user to change his form to gain the properties of a certain animal like all Zoan fruits. In this case, the user gains the properties of a sloth. The user gains 3 forms and can gain more forms by training or by using certain drugs such as Rumble Balls. All of the forms except for the human form have slow metabolism and are vegeterian.
Human Form: In his human form the user's apperance will basically remain the same. The user becomes extremely laz (unless he is already lazy)y and will be hungry as long as he's awake, like real sloths. Aside from the change in behavior, the user can host special kinds of symbiotic bacteryas in his hair and in his stomach. The bacteria in his hair doesn't act while in human form but the bacteria in his stomach allows the user to digest certain foods such as leaves which are otherwise extremely difficult to digest. This digestion process is very long.
Sloth Form: In his sloth form the user becomes a medium sized sloth. He gains all of the characteristics of the sloth which include long arms with sharp claws, fur, great climbing and hanging skills and the use of the bacteria in his stomach and fur. The bacteria in the stomach keeps it's role as a digestion assistent while the bacteria in the fur assists the user with blending in the surroundings. It hides the users smell and dies his fur to match the color of sand or tree trunks. The user is extremely lazy in this form (Can sleep through full days if not interrupted).
Hybrid Form: In his hybrid form the user is at his peak. His body maintains the size of his human body but his back is slightly hunched forward. His hair grows longer and a thin fur appears on his limbs. He loses a finger in each a=hand, giving him 3 fingers and a thumb, all equiped with thick and long sharp sloth claws. These claws can deal deep cuts that might get infected by the fur bacteria. The user's limbs become unproportionaly long compared to his body and he gains great climbing skills and enhanced monkey-like agility. The user is still very lazy in this form.
Special Abilities: Shanti: Due to his legacy that educated him to respect and learn nature, he can identify and predict most of 'nature's actions'. He can predict the weather by simply smelling the air and looking at the clouds. He can predict certain currents and waves in the ocean and can even predict the location of island. He can identify almost every herb and plant just by looking or smelling them and can predict what plants will probably grow in certain spots based on the earth type. This ability also alows him to partially comunicate with animals. Thius comunication allows him to train animals to the point where he can convince a lion not to eat a certain zebra. Shanti is a mocking name to a hippy in eastern languages.
Enhanced Acrobatic Skills: Due to his devil fruit's effect on him Enma became as agile and acrobatic as a monkey. He can easily hang from tree and jump to great heights. He is also very flexible, being able to bend his back backwards up to the point where his head can go between his legs while he is still standing. This ability is very helpful for his fighting style.
Buddha's Way Of The Fist: This is a fighting style that is thought to all villagers of Enma's island. This fighting style reflects the will for peace, being composed of almost only defensive moves. It is based on a principle calld "Flow". The flow is a theoretical pattern in a living body that directs all energy within it (It's not fully real it's just a theory of the islanders, like chi). By using certein moves, the practisioner of this style can control the Flow in their body and use it to nullify most attacks. This is done by a series of spins wave-like motions that allow the practionioner to harmlessly pass the kinetic energy from an attack through his skeleton and out of his body. It's the ultimate case of 'turning the other cheek'. This style is used to tire the opponent while maintaining the user's foothold.
Learned Techniques (Keep it 1-25):- Spoiler:
Flow - this is the basic move of 'Budha's way of the fist'. It is used when a blunt attack is directed at the user. By intercepting the attack with his hand and doing a wave-like motion from his hand through his shoulders to his other hand, the user can harmlessly pass the kinetic energy through his bones and out of his hand to either the air or an object that his hand is touching. Skilled users like Enma can use this move to direct the energy through other parts of their skeleton as well and release it from different parts of the body. Enma can stop a cannonball with this move.
Spin - A both defensive and offensive move. By standing on one toe when an atack is performed the user converts the attack into a spin thus nullifing it. The spin can be used to direct the energy back at the attacker with the user's limbs.
Flick - This technique is used to stop incoming slashing attacks. By quickly striking the flat side of a shrap object, the user can harmlessly redirect the slash away from his body.
Current - This is a rapid version of Flow. It is used to stop rapid attacks. With this technique the user can even block a barage of bullets.
Buddha Strike - Probably the only offensive move of this style. Skilled practitioners can control the incoming kinetic energy that travel in their body with an advanced use of the Flow. Kinetic energy is the result of mass and speed. Thus, by increasing the speed of their flow (the wave motion of their body) the user can emplify the kinetic energy in his body. Than, by adding even more force with his own, The user can release the energy from different parts of his body to create various effects. this can be from prpeling himself forward or shattering stones.
Weapons/Items: Bushy and SmartyRumble Ball:- Spoiler:
Properties: A gum-like drug that Sleepy can create with the help of his herb identification abiliteis. It is green colored and tastes completely terrible, like a terrible tea. It has the same effects as other Rumble Balls.
Special Abilities: The Rumble Ball allows Zoan fruit users like Sleepy to gain more transformation options for a certain period of time (3 minutes). When using the Rumble Ball, Sleepy gains 4 different forms in addition to his existing three and an additional form that can be reached by eating 3 Rumble Balls:
Lazy Claw: In this form, Sleepy's hands become a pair of monstrous sloth hands. Each arm is 6 feet long, becoming longer than Sleepy himself. The arms are armed with massive sloth claws. These claws are as hard as steel and can be used for both defense and offense. sleepy loses his thimb in this form. The claws are each 2 feet long and can be used to scratch even stone and possibly steel. By closing his fingers together, Sleepy can make the four claws take the shape of a spear edge, increasing their penetration force.
Lazy Tongue: In this form Sleepy's mouth becomes larger and filled with sharp teeth. The bacteria in his stomach is extended to cover his entire digestion system, including his mouth. His tongue becomes extra long, reaching 6 feet when fully extended. The tongue is very durable and can be used as a whip or a rope to lash at opponents and choke them. It can also be used to assist in climbing. The bacteria in the tongue acts like acid and burns skin in contact. In this form Sleepy can use his tongue and his improved jumping skills to cover great distances.
Lazy Spikes: In this form Sleepy grows sloth fur to cover his entire body. The fur is extremely thick and is grown from the edge of the limbs towards the body instead of normal fur. The thick cover of fur provides great defense. The only parts that are not completely covered in fur are the head and the hands. In this form Sleepy can use his special fighting style with his bones AND his fur, increasing his defensive skills.
Lazy Tail: In this form Sleepy grows a huge stubby tail of about 9 feet. His legs are also extended to about 4 feet. The tail and extended legs allow Sleepy to jump to great heights and enhance his balance, further improving his fighting style. The tail is very strong and can be used to strike opponents like a third arm.
Lazy Savage: This form can only be reached after taking three Rumble Balls. It can be defined as the awakened version of the sloth fruit. Sleepy will change into a
Megatherium, an extinct giant sloth. The Megatherium was known as one of the largest mammals, weighting about 8 tons and reaching a height of 20 feet while standing on his hind legs. In this form Sleepy can stand on two but can walk only on four legs. This form includes all of the great affects of the other Rumble forms. He gains gigantic arm and claws that can penetrates steel, a giant stubby tail that can be used like a mace, a thick fur that protects his body and a long tongue and sharp teeth. This form is accompanied with monstrous strength, rivaling that of dinosaurs. Like other awakened zoans, this form has a rapid healing factor but the brainpower of zero. Sleepy is reduced to a barbaric thinking process that only contains sleeping, eating and protecting himself from threats. After about 2 minutes Sleepy's body will revert back to normal and he will become unconscious.
Character Flaws: Without his parrot to motivate him, Enma is likely to do absolutely nothing. That includes fighting back.
Goals: Fight the imbalance of nature.
Find the most comfortable cushion in the world.
