Appearance: - Spoiler:
History: Alejandro is a descendant from a Marine-based family named the Luminoso. They are semi-well known. They aren't feared by fellow marines nor do civillians cower before them, but they are respected and honored everytime a known Luminoso is seen. Alejandro may try, but his younger brother recieves all the fame. His younger brother was named Andrew. Although people praised Andrew more, Alejandro always considered himself the hero in the shadows. Without one, there wouldn't be the other. Without Alejandro to take out the ranged-fighters, he wouldn't know where Andrew would be. Vice-versa for melee fighters nearing Alejandro. Andre was 14, Alex was 17. There was a raid on their property. They had an acre of land meant for their huge family to train young ones into becoming marines. Alejandro not known what Andrew did with his group of rebels, but he had hidden and used a marine rifle to take out rebels one at a time. It was a slow process. He walked out of his hiding spot with a pistol and aimed it at a rebel. His last kill was a dead-eye shot. A lead bullet through the eyeball of the rebel. A mortifying kill that caused him to train only as a sniper.
After that Raid, he had not spoken to Andrew for a couple months. Their training and sleep times had seperated them. There was no real chance. One day, on Alejandro's 18th birthday, he had recieved news he was being shipped to a Marine base to finish Marine training. His family was proud, but when Andrew would recieve his, they would celebrate. That day had yet to come back then. It would be 3 years before he would see his brother. As Andrew recieved positive fame, Alejandro had hard, cruel training. But the training never numbed his humorous side. He acted like he would if he was sniping during training. When he was 19, he officially became a Marine. Being the #3 Sniper in his class, he rivaled the other two who were higher. They were the 3 considered all 1st placers, but they just did it in order on who achieved the requirements for the top place first. They were all tied. Alejandro remained a private for a year before being put onto a unknown crew of marines. His time on the ocean had taught him where to position himself in a sea battle. For years he waited to recieve news when his brother became a Marine. When he was shipped back to the base, he found out his brother was a Marine. Though, he could not visit him. He was 27 at this time, just about to be 28. On his 28th birthday he was shipped to a crew called the Iron Raiders. It took him several days, and he has yet to be there.
Personality: Alejandro is an italian who lives in the north blue. He has somewhat of a two-sided personality. One side is when he is not sniping, the other is when he is. When he isn't sniping, he is a humorous and sarcastic person. He likes to joke around during this leisure time. But when he readies his sniper, a silence is upon him. He is as silent as he would be with his lips sewed shut. He acts as a sniper and a scout. His silence brings stealth, and he becomes emotionless. Pressure is not an object to him, when he has a target he attempts to take out his target. He has not experienced this with his brother, which may be the only time he has an emotional barrier whilst sniping.
Ship: The Blue Raider
Ship Flag: Picture in Iron Raiders section in Join a Crew.
Devil Fruit: Type: (only if you have a devil fruit)
Effect: (only if you have a devil fruit)
Special Abilities: Sniper vision: If Alejandro squints his eyes, he can do some sort of zoom in his vision, where he can concentrate his sight on one spot, having the ability to see closer to that spot he is concentrated on.
Eagle-Eye: Although his Sniper Vision is a concentration skill he can do semipassively, he naturally has the sight of an eagle. But how it affects him causes a flaw.
Learned Techniques (Keep it 1-25): Instant Reload: Every 3 posts, due to the long reload speed, Alejandro can use a sleight-of-hand style of fast movements, reloading his gun.
Harpy Bomb: Alejandro would use a object that is midair or something that would fall if shot and would fire an explosive bullet into the object. Though the bullet wouldn't explode on impact, more of on a timer. It would stick in like an arrow. The name derives from the harpy designs on the bullet. 2 post cooldown.
Missile Shot: With a highly-powered shot, Alejandro would fire a explosive bullet that would move like a missile, with repressed speed. On impact, it would explode like a frag grenade, sending fragments flying. 3 post cooldown.
Scavenger: Using a double Instant Reload attack, Alejandro would fire three explosive bullets. This cannot be used for 7 posts after use.
Armor Piercing Round: Alejandro would use a Armor-piercing round, piercing highly durable defences. But this has a limit. It does not pierce the extremely strong defences. It cannot pierce a fortress wall that is thicker than 5 feet, meaning it goes at the most 5 feet in a fortress wall. 3 post cooldown.
Tranquilizer: Alex can use a tranquilizer dart meant for his gun but it is only non deadly at 40+ feet. It is as strong as an elephant tranquilizer. 1 post cooldown.
Weapons/Items: RhinoRifle- Will be made in Weapon's section.
Character Flaws: Alejandro's Eagle eye causes him to see things too close, being unable to determine melee attacks accurately enough. This forces him to remain distant from his foes. He is a horrible melee fighter anyways. He saves his stamina for long-distant runs. He can only run up to 3/4 of a mile before being exhausted.
Goals: To achieve the name NightHawk from the family ritual. Also to ascend higher up in the marine ranks.
