Gio is a pirate character in One Piece: The Aftermath. He is played by **Trippy Crippy**. Gio is an artificial ruby human and he currently resides in paradise, the Grandline and is the possessor of the ruby logia.

## Appearance:

Gio is a 5'11" male with an athletic build. His appearance is eerily similar to that of the Emperor, Oid Odnarb. Gio has short blonde-red hair, a blueish-green cat-like eye, a ruby eye and an X-shaped tattoo on his back.

## Personality:

Gio can be best described as a loose canon. He derives pleasure from harming others due to it being biologically programmed into him and thus can be seen as violent, however if unprovoked he's very docile but still has more primitive instincts.

## Abilities/Powers/Equipment:

### Equipment:

• Galileo carries with him a larger than average fire axe which he used to escape the laboratory where he was originally held. (greataxe)

• Galileo has created some basic weapons for himself, not knowing many other weapons he has made smaller but more maneuverable versions of his Axe (handaxes).

• After an intense battle, Gio used the teeth of a Firewyrm in order to create more armaments. (Daggers and shortswords)

• During the battle against the pirate "Iron Hand" Arez Gio had managed to rip the power axe out from his hands, he is now in possession of said axe which does 2d6+strength (2d8+strength when held with two hands) Force damage.

• A shield made of jade which he'd bought before his hunt for Big Wayne in Monarchia.

### Abilities:

•Galileo has a strong and athletic build which can be intimidating to others, however he isn't purely muscle. He's quite perceptive and in tune with nature, his instincts seem to be quite good.

[He has proficiencies in: Athletics,Intimidation, Survival, Nature, Animal Handling and Perception.]

•His regenerative ability is outstanding. If he were to be subjected to any form of medicinal treatment his healing would be accelerated.

[Whenever Gio regains hit points, he regains an additional amount equal to his proficiency bonus.]

•Gio mind biology him to derive pleasure from witnessing violence enacted onto others, this leads to a large amount of dopamine and adrenaline being produced inside of his body, giving him the ability to battle even with grievous wounds.

[Gio is a 6th level Shark Totem Barbarian.]

BLOOD THIRST:

•Due to his altered genetics Gio is able to access a pool of adrenaline while he's in battle which increases his speed but prevents him from backing down. Until all enemies are dead, he is knocked out or until all enemies are out of his line of sight:

- He is unable to Disengage until everyone in the initiative order is dead or out of the line of sight.

DARK SOULS STRATS:

•Gio has been through enough fights in his short life to learn that it's easier to dodge an attack than to take it, leading to him learning how to roll out of the way as a reaction to avoid damage.

## Relationships:

Enemies:

- Soldiers of the island of Nostrodorne.

- Pink haired scientist

- Basically everyone

- Big Wayne

- Maram Pel, a Captain within the Marines

Allies:

Captain Titus: A captain within the army of Nostrodorne. He aided Gio in helping defeat the Firewyrm, Gio however still does not trust him.

Diego: His younger brother, a Thunder Savant with a literal thirst for blood. Gio still treats him with kindness and would protect him with his life due to them being brothers.

Xander: Gio's younger brother and favorite. He and Xander get along quite well, often working together on plans or talking about general things. Despite Xander's quiet nature they compliment each other in this way by having opposing personalities, one such example is their views on breasts. Xander sees them as potentially armor while Gio sees them as excess weight.

## History:

Gio's first memory is waking up inside a vat of a strange liquid.

### The Perfect Space Journey (Cover-Story)

Gio appears in the latter half of the Cover-Story after his fight against the **"Space Chicken" Roddrick** and accidentally smashing the two of them into his space ship and ejcting themselves into the straitospeherecrashing into the Moon. GIO upon the pods opening, would quickly leap out on primal instinct and throws the Iron Hand's Axe at the rising Rodrick, decapiating the allien creature after their two day battle.

Upon the defeat of his foe, and still bloodlusted, GIO would begin to attack the inhabitance of the Moon, leading to him encountering and attempting to fight the incomplete **Perfect Heavens,** who was residing on the Moon, training for an eventual rematch against the G-7 Chaos Squadron (Spefically Silas). GIO, blinded by his bloodlust and adrenaline would try slaughter the foe before him; only to be met with quick defeat, outmatched by the bio-android's regenerative abillites and techniques. Defeated and Subdued, it would be noted by Heavens their "similiarities" as artifical beings, and, using some of the data stored within himself by his genius creator Doctor Flamel; Heavens would begin to mess around with the artifical human biology and mentality. Aware of the Augemented abillites of GIO, and his apparent devil fruit to create the gemstones known as Ruby; Heavens would begin to slowly turn GIO into the perfect counter-measure to deal with the parrying demonkin of G-7 and its leader wielding the forces of light. He would do so by briefly absorbing GIO into his body in a similar way he did to Cesar and begin to rewrite his DNA to be abit more leniant, even adding in a master command pyramid that functioned as "Those of Heaven's Standards" is who he would serve, unknowingly making GIO not only a servant of his, but to a puppet to any celestial dragon that may cross his path.

After roughly three months of fine-tuning and efforts, he managed to somewhat complete GIO, despite being unable to get rid of his bloodlust state completely, he managed to surpress the savage instincts to only during battle, reforming the Artifical Human to his docile state and having him be more reasonable; It was also programmed that he would He derive pleasure from harming Silas Raeves spefically, overriding his general pleasure for violence. Heavens, with the knowledge of Oid from when he briefly absorbed Cesar, also implanted a few of the Yonko's mannerisms into, what Heavens concured was a failed cloning project of the Yonko.

Heavens would then shove GIO back into the space-pod, marking his left arm with the Roman Numerial of 1, with a small H above it, before sending him crashing into the planet from the moon, spefically into the Sea of Flame, destroying the craft in the process and unintentionally sending GIO to H.E.L.L
