Welcome to the
Weekly:
"Magikarp (Mondays) Questionaire"
​
Hooray, its the thing nobody asked for, but I keep doing it.
Because I missed a few months, I will be asking two questions per week for a while.

Which actor would you want your character to be played by?"
"What is your characters favourite island/place?
"If your character found a genie that offered three wishes, what would those wishes be?"
"What is your Characters Mother like? Is she still alive?"
"What is your Characters Father like? Is he still alive?"
How does your character sleep? Where do they sleep the best and in what position?"
"What would your characters job be in this world?"
This week there are multiple questions, geared towards the different factions: (You can also answer these Questions in Character)

For Pirates: "What made you become a pirate?"
For Revolutionaries: "When the Revolution is successful, what do you want the world to look like?"
For Marines: "Why are you stupid?"Jk, its "What is your Justice like? Do you support the tenryubito?"

These all basically boil down to: "Why are you doing what you are doing?", but you can get more specific for each faction. Non-Trinary Characters (Underground, other) can just answer that question.
"What is your Characters favourite plant?"
"If your characters crew were a family, what would your characters role be?"
"In Poker, what would your characters tell be? Do they have a good pokerface?"
This weeks Question is actually an online buzzfeed quiz.
Which "Friend" is your Character?
"Describe your character in five words or less."
"What is your Characters favourite ice cream flavor?"
"How similar is your characters personality to your own? Are there any major differences or are they completely unrelated?"
What would be the worst devil fruit for your character to have, thematically or power wise?"
"If your character were to compete in the Olympics, what would be their discipline?
"Your crew is eating in a restaurant, and the waiter brought your character the wrong food. What do they do?"
To avoid spamming Oreki and Joby with notifications, i will quote my post here where I quoted their questions.
Orekis Question:
Btw.. which tarot card resemble your character

Jobys Question:
This actually kinda brings up a fun topic!

what are people’s inspirations for aspects of their characters? Are there any specific characters or historical figures that you find yourself either directly inspired by or maybe have similarities to other characters or people you like that you have recognized after writing your character for a while?
"Your crew has visited an island with a zombie apocalypse. Your Character has been bitten. Do they tell the others about the zombie bite?"
"Your character has won a difficult fight, but the marines/newspapers give the credit to somebody else, a.) From the same faction, or b.) From the opposite faction. How do they react?"
Someone gave your character a video den den mushi number to call to see something that would be of interest to them, like a weapons demonstration on punk hazard maybe. But instead, all they recieve is This. How do they react?"
"What is your characters favourite song/music genre?"
"What would your characters Nen type be? What would their ability be like?"
"Your character and his crew go trick or treating. What costumes do they wear?"
"What is your character's greatest fear?"
What is something you know about your character that they themselves dont?"
"What is something that you dont know about your character?"
"If your character had a stand, what would it be called?"
"What would the stands abilities be?"
"What would your characters favourite/most similar Pokemon be?"
"What would their type be?"
"A reporter approaches your character and wants to interview them for Morgans Newspaper. How do they react? Do they want the attention? Do they have a message for the world?"
"The interviewer asks questions from the Magikarp Questionaire, the ones that are possible within the one piece world at least. He then give your PC the chance to add a question to the list to be asked of all the other bigshots in the world. What question do they add?"

This weeks questions are:
"What is the reason for your Characters name? Does it mean something?"
"If your character had been the opposite gender, what name would their parents have given them? For example, Portgas D. Ace would have been named "Ann" had he been a girl, and my father would have insisted upon me being called "Rahel"."



"What is the reason for your Characters name? Does it mean something?"
My character calls himself "Yasashī te Dō" which means (roughly) "Path of the Soft/weak Hand". My Karate sensei once told me that "Karate Do" meant "Way of the empty hand". Dō is a total pacifist and doesnt want to solve problems through violence. Perfect world for that to work out, right?
"If your character had been the opposite gender, what name would their parents have given them? For example, Portgas D. Ace would have been named "Ann" had he been a girl, and my father would have insisted upon me being called "Rahel"."
His real name is Kira, because he is partly inspired by Yoshikage Kira, so if he had been a girl his parents would have called him "Queen".

first name (Jade) is mostly just a name I use when i'm playing female characters in things. second name (Belle) was a cool idea for a surname i thought
"If your character had been the opposite gender, what name would their parents have given them? For example, Portgas D. Ace would have been named "Ann" had he been a girl, and my father would have insisted upon me being called "Rahel"."
Jade is technically a unisex name, so the name wouldnt change

My character's name is Landayan Morrow. Landayan is a place in our country where the 4 provinces meet yearly to celebrate Christ's rebirth. It means deliverer and sometimes, a man who has full of insights or wisdom. Morrow is derived from Hisoka to pattern Gambit's Card throwing techniques.

Should he be a girl, Immana name her Lanaya, my daughter's name. My 2nd daughter's name is Hiraya which is the country my character came from.

@Ichimonji

Just noticed something in your weekly stash. Your total island income is 1.5B but you're only spreading 1,005,000,000.

Is 1.5 a typo error or you have been short of 495,000,000 for weeks now?

Total Crew Island Income: 1,500,000,000
Spada Crew Money: 251,250,000 (Territory 25%)Spada Member Money: 753,750,000 (Territory 75%)

it depends. I'm selling insurance, too but it's actually not a waste of money if you think such expenses will be covered by a third party which is your insurer. In some cases, these insurance are boosted with crazy perks like mutual funds, no claim bonus, etc. The former of course you already know that it matures and gains some funds over the years.

That's the traditional insurance mate. And that's a waste of money indeed! Hahaha

What I normally offer is a hybrid of investment and insurance so it becomes more variable. Your family gets more.

Eh w/e, she'll have a paid for home, paid for car and half a mill... I don't need to have her retired when I kick the bucket, she can still work some. But she'll definitely be set. xD

Wish someone insured their ass and set me as a beneficiary though. You should do it Gambit. xD
