Hamonde "Cannibal" Kib

Name: Hamonde "Cannibal" Kib (Kib is the first name)

Age: 19

Bounty: 1,000,000

Species: Human

Occupation: Cook, Survivalist

Allegiance: Pirate (Blizzard Pirates)

Home Village/Ocean: West Blue

Appearance: Kib looks fairly average in most respects, being about 175 cm tall with average width. He has some muscle, and though his arms are not bulky, they have obvious muscle, and he is otherwise rather toned as well. This is showcased by his clothing, consisting of a yellowish beige vest coupled with blue pants and unremarkable beige running shoes.

He has a powerful jaw and a well-defined face, causing him to appear somewhat more mature than he is, though he maintains a youthful appearance. He has wavy brownish blonde hair, mostly extending to the level just below his ears and stopping at his neck, though it is swept to the side from his face. His eyes are green with a subtle dark hue.

History: Kib was born in a cosmopolitan town in west blue to a middle class family keeping a small restaurant in the city center. He was an only child, and his parents wanted him to continue the family business. However, as a rather rash and proactive kid who had seen much governmental corruption, he wanted to become a pirate instead.

His father would have none of it, telling him that he should succeed as a cook first before going anywhere from the restaurant, and Kib could think of no way to prove to his father that he was a great cook instead of just a professional cook. And with the amount of respect he had for his parents, despite his general resentment for authority, he was not someone who would simply run from home. Father knew best, after all. Finish one thing before going off to do another.

However, one day, Kib would luck out. A man came to the restaurant to eat, and after eating, was presented with the bill. The man could not find his wallet, figuring that it had been stolen. Kib told him that he would let it go this time, and the stranger smiled, telling him that generosity should always be rewarded and presenting him with a strange fruit before leaving. He and his father researched it and discovered that it was a devil fruit, as well as confirming that the first on to bite one got all the powers and that it tasted terrible. Kib ate a little piece first, confirming that it tasted terrible. Then his father tried it, also confirming that it was horrible.

Kib then set to work to prepare a dinner for the family, telling his father that he would include the devil fruit and prove that he had succeeded as a cook by making it taste good. His father told him that if he succeeded, he would honor his promise and allow him to leave the restaurant. He had marinated slices of the devil fruit in a strong sauce, applied every procedure he knew to absorb other flavors into the fruit, working for 4 hours solid before finally eating a slice.

And it was good. His marinated devil fruit slices had succeeded, and he had succeeded as a cook. The devil fruit had been devoured by his parents and his father finally agreed that he had succeeded as a cook. He prepared his leave for quite a while before finally leaving, his parents wishing him a good life and telling him to come back some day.

It has been two years from that now, and Kib has spent the time as a solo pirate, making himself ready to face the dangerous world. He purposefully sought out challenges to improve his abilities, gradually gaining the power he possesses now, mostly facing off against various beasts, trekking unarmed into unexplored islands and other similar stunts serving as self-training, though it garnered him no fame.

Then, one day, he fell asleep in a marine training court while trespassing (He had no clue where he was). The marines naturally hauled his ass off to a cell to question him afterwards. He woke up soon after, and was brought to the commanding officer of the facility to be questioned. He quickly figured that the officer was, to put it simply, an insufferable, spiteful ass. He was sent back to his cell, but quickly escaped by biting through the cell bars and started making his way out, knocking out any marines he ran across. His escape was quickly noted and at one point he heard the officer yelling at the marines for not being able to defeat a devil fruit user with the strength to easily knock out any of them. He crashed through the window he was spying on them through and grabbed the officer with his "Fang Lock" technique, watching the officer scream at the marines for help, who were reluctant to even move. Then he bit the officer, dragging the officer with him as he escaped, throwing him into the sea. He earned the "Cannibal" moniker here, as well as a small bounty for assaulting a marine officer and escaping the prison. He now feels ready to head out as a true pirate, and is searching for a crew.

Personality: Kib has a passing resentment for the government, though he reserves much respect for his parents, whose conditions he fulfilled completely before setting out to the sea. He is often rash and inconsiderate with his actions, though he can possess surprising insight at times. He takes challenges and setbacks in stride, and tends to assume the best of people unless something tells him otherwise. He's thus rather cheerful and generally benevolent.

However, he is not all smiles. When something angers him, threatens his friends or offends his sense of justice, he can be rather brutal and violent, thinking nothing of ripping the offenders to shreds. He doesn't like needless killing, but he is pragmatic enough to know that most of the time he just can't afford to look after enemies, and hey, they threatened him first, right?

Ship: N/A

Ship Flag: N/A

Devil Fruit: Baito Baito No Mi
Type: Paramecia
Effect: The bite bite fruit allows the user to create a mouthful of teeth anywhere the user touches. The teeth do not harm the surface they are planted on and can be closed and opened at will by the user, with the user's own jaw strength. The teeth are normal human teeth at the start, but larger and more powerful teeth can be made with training. Created mouthfuls that are not within 20 meters of the user, disappear. However, particularly powerful users can extend this range to up to 100 meters. The more training the user has, the more teeth the user can control. Typically, a new user can start with 3 mouthfuls of teeth and gradually train to use up to 30.

Special Abilities:
Fruit use: Kib is proficient enough in the use of his devil fruit to imitate the teeth of large cats like tigers as well as those of creatures like a large brown bear, as well as anything smaller and weaker than that. His control zone extends to 40 meters from him and he can control up to 10 mouthfuls of teeth at a time.
Strength: Kib is strong enough to visibly dent and crack stone with his punches, though it requires sustained effort from him to punch through a stone wall for example. However, all this pales in comparison to his bite force, which can mangle metal bars as long as he can get his teeth around the object properly. He can utilize this even better with teeth created via his devil fruit.
Speed&Endurance: Kib is a fast runner, topping off at running a 100 meters in about 8 seconds, as well as having the endurance to keep a constant, good running speed for a length of time. This same endurance allows him to take hits and recover from injuries better than normal people, and he can shrug off unarmed attacks from average people as well as bounce back from attacks that would cleanly take out others in one shot. However, considering the monsters that live on the seas, he is not particularly exceptional.

Learned Techniques (Keep it 1-25):
Ivory Spear: Kib snaps his mouth shut, allowing a rapidly traveling spear of air escape through his teeth with the intent to have it bludgeon his foe backwards as well as pierce them. He can perform this with any mouth he uses, whether that be his own or a set of teeth created with his devil fruit powers.

• Fang of the Hyena: Named for the conniving nature of the hyena, this attack requires prior preparation. First, Kib places teeth around his opponent, on the ground, on walls, wherever he can place them, trying to surround his opponent with seemingly randomly placed teeth. Then, when he is done, he fires Ivory Spears continuously from each one, turning the area between the teeth into a veritable death zone. He also uses a variation where he simply places teeth in a row on the wall or on the ground beside him to fire several attacks against a group coming from the front.

Inception Bite: Kib places his hand in his mouth, creating little teeth on the surface of the incisors and premolars before biting his opponent while biting his opponent. In effect, he places teeth on his teeth so he can bite while he bites.

Palm Bites: Kib holds his palms together, creating a mouthful of teeth on each palm. This dramatically increases the damage dealt by his palm strikes as he can bite the opponents with his monstrous jaw strength with each attack. He can also make stronger versions of this by using the teeth of other animals like hyenas or apes, as long as they would fit on his palm. In addition, he can use this to block and grab bladed weapons.

• Omnivore Barrage: Having placed teeth on his palms, Kib performs a rapid sequence of palm strikes, biting the opponent with each attack. The bites, coming at a very fast speed with a substantial amount of strength, typically rip bits of flesh off the opponent in several places, making this an immensely damaging attack.
  
• Fang Lock: Kib strikes an opponent with his palm, having used Palm Bites prior. Upon a successful hit, he places a mouthful of teeth wherever the attack connects and immediately bites the two mouthfuls on each other, locking them together and locking the opponent to Kib's palm in a way that is nearly impossible to get rid of after he has succeeded in doing it.

Weapons/Items: A raft and a cooking set, including pans, pots, knives and other such implements.

Goals: Find a crew, oppose the world government and reach the New World.
