"Point me towards the next person to kill!"
Common Info
Name
"I ain't got one!"
(Records from a small East island speak of a murder of a man by his young daughter, which lines up with her story. The young girl was named Veronica.)
Alias
"But they call me El Cid!"
Marine Title/Rank
"I'm the ocean's greatest Swordsman! I've just been made an ensign for the Marines too... but that just means I can kill without repercussions, or somethin'!"
Race
"I'm so much more than just a regular Human!"
Gender
"Eeh? Ain't that obvious?"
Age
"Cut me open and count the rings!"
(The records from her youth were from thirty years ago, making her around 36.)
Place of Origin
"Somewhere East, but I don't care about the past! I just care about where I'm goin'!"
Bounty
"None... anymore! I did have 150k Berri, 'cause I killed a lot of people, sunk a lot of ships an' stole plenty. My head was worth a lot, but that's been suspended since joining the DOGs!"
Physical Info
Physical description
"I keep myself in shape so I can have as many fights as possible! My hair's long and white, so enemies can spot me from a distance! People say my eyes are black as the Depths of the ocean... which is exactly where I send 'em when I kill 'em!"
Clothes
"I just wear what's comfortable! Gotta be easy to move around in. Eeh, 'uniform? Fine! But I ain't cleanin' the blood off!"
Defining feature
"Every scar of mine tells a story of someone I've killed! They're a sign that I've had a fun fight!"
Personal Items
"Don't need nothin' more than my blade."Personal Info
Personality
Previous Firstmate's testimony: "El Cid? She's a demon. Quick to anger, but always with this terrifying smile on her face! She's loyal, to a point... but cross her and she won't hesitate to kill you. El Cid seems to look at everyone as if they're a potential opponent, even the Captain and me! She's a glutton, too... eats as much as the rest of the crew combined."
"I hate fools and bullies! I will fight anyone... but if they're weak, I won't bother. People who pick on those who can't defend themselves deserve a quick death!"
Morals
"I won't hurt a kid, but anyone else is fair game! Unless they're weak... I won't kill anyone who can't fight back, unless I got good reason. I guess that I can't kill Marines anymore... but I gave DOGs my word that I'd fight for them, and I never break a promise! That is unless they try and make me kill a child or some weak, innocent person. Then they'll become the enemy. For now, just point me in the direction of the next target!"
Passion
"Fighting!"
Loathe
"Boredom! Being on the edge of death is a thrill, and everything else is boring!"
Flaw
"Flawed? I ain't got none!"
Previous Firstmate's testimony: "Well, El Cid's an idiot. She can't read, write or count, and she's super gullible to boot. All she cares about is fighting. The way we got her off our boat is by telling her there was a strong opponent hiding on an island... it wasn't big enough to hide a coconut, let alone another person! She was still hunting around this little spit of sand as we sailed away. Total moron! ...you won't tell her I said that, right?"
Personal Goal/Dream
"I won't be happy until I've fought every single worthy opponent! If I don't die in battle, then I'll be upset. Well, then I'll just keep fighting as a ghost or whatever until I can die again in a fight!"
Defining Moment
"My first fight! When I was six, I killed my dad, the piece of shit that he was. That's when I knew I lived to kill, and knew that I loved fighting more than anything!"
Family Tree
"My father was an arsehole. He killed my mother, so I killed him!"
(The records name her father as Rapscallion, and her mother as Marigold.)
Tactics info
Personal Equipment
"Riptide has been my sword since I was a kid. A green-bladed katana with a starfish-shaped hilt, she's she's the last thing a lot of people see in life! I took her from a Merperson that I killed with my bare hands! She's been my loyal friend ever since! I dunno how many opponents she's cut down, or how much blood she's drank. Hey, wanna make it one more?"
Skills
"I ain't found an opponent that can kill me yet. Me and Riptide, we're an unbeatable pair! I fight with my Storming Ocean Swordstyle, where each swing is like a powerful wave, crashing over opponents with all the strength of the ocean! It's fast, powerful and chaotic... just like waves on the sea! Other stuff... well, I'm athletic and strong. I'm a fast runner an' swimmer."
Haki
"Eeh?"
Combat Style
"Ah, this is what I love! Nothin' fancy, I just swing my sword and watch the blood fly. I ain't too worried if I get cut myself. People with scars are just people that have won a lot of fights! So I let myself get cut up and bloody, 'cause that makes it easier to cut down my opponent! I won't fight an unfair fight though. If its two on one an' I'm one of the two, then I'll just sit out the fight! I can't stand anyone who runs away, either, and cowards who beg for their life at the end of a good fight... die like a true warrior! I'd never back down, or ask to be spared if I lose a fight! I wanna die with my blade in my hand!"
Techniques
"Swirling Tidal Pool, I swing my whole body around with Riptide out, cutting down multiple opponents around me!
Great Breaker, a two-handed swing from above to cut opponents in half!
Surging Riptide, a striking jab with the point of my sword to skewer whatever is in front of me!
Plunging Seiche, a diagonal cut in front of me, taking care of anyone who has got too close!
Rolling Bombora, where I take multiple steps forward, slashing rapidly with each one to overwhelm an opponent and push them back!"
