 and likes to mess with people, both enemies and friends. He doesn't
like to fight unless necessary and preaches Justice even though he's a
pirate. He has a slightly straightforward and rebellious personality,
and a knack of not listening to people he doesn't like or is not
interested in. He takes his fights seriously but likes to fool around but can be very lazy at times.

## Back Story

On a busy Island in East Blue, Fenix at the age of 13 lost his
parents. The marines told him they died in an accident, but Fenix
overheard them talking about how the Celestial Dragons, who were
visiting the Island at the time had shot them for trying to contradict
the Celestial Dragons when they tried to shoot the kid who happened to
walk on their path. He didn't know why, at that time, but his parents
were never very fond of the celestial dragons. Infuriated, Fenix ran
away from the marine base and wandered the street looking for some
shelter, trying his hard not to breakout and cry but tears still welled
up his eyes. Running, with blurred vision he ran into a man who asked
him if he's lost and offered to walk him home. Angry and sad Fenix told
him he doesn't have a family. He knew he couldn't go back to his home.
His family was poor, they hadn't paid their rent and the landlord was
going to throw him out if he showed up there now. The man, kindly, asked
 him if he was hungry and took him to his home after he, reluctantly,
accepted his invitation, feeling hopeless.

The man had a very old family Dojo. He had no wife, but a son and a
father who lived with him. The son had a similar, kind personality like
his father while his father had a stern, serious look on his face yet a
kind personality, like his son and grandson. His son, Albert Günther,
was nearly the same age as Fenix. He was even more skinny than Fenix and
 looked very weak. His father appeared the same, he was rather skinny
for a middle-aged man. His grandfather, Toshiro, on the other hand had a
 lean, slightly muscular physique. Over dinner, when they asked him
about his family and what had happened to them, Fenix, considering their
 hospitality, trusted them and told them everything that had happened.
After he was done, the man, Isaac Günther, and Toshiro exchanged a look
and he gave him a nod with a stern look. Isaac looked at him and told
him he can stay with them from now on. Taken aback, Fenix though sad,
was for once genuinely feeling happy again. He could not hold back and
tears started to drip from his eyes as he thanked them for their
hospitality and kindness. Isaac then asked for his name and introduced
everyone in the family.

As the days went by, Fenix, formed a strong bond with Albert who told
 him how he wanted to become a powerful marine and help people. Fenix
had a different thought in mind. He knew even if the Marines were just,
the World Government would still forever remain unjust and use the
Marines to do their bidding. He liked to watch Albert's grandfather in
the Dojo. Soon, he began learning Bushido from his grandfather, who was
kind enough to offer to teach it to him. Toshiro taught him lots of
stuff, like the world history, the samurai history etc. He was not as
brilliant a student as Albert, but he loved studying history. Then one
day, while he was reading a book, he saw a tattoo that he was certain he
 had seen before. He remembered his mother, who had this tattoo on her
back. She never showed it to him, but he caught a glimpse of it when he
was young. Though, he couldn't quite understand what the book said. He
thought there was something wrong, so he went over to old man Toshiro to
 ask it himself. Later that day, when he showed that tattoo to him, he
told him his mother had this tattoo, but he doesn't know what it means.
As soon as he mentioned that, a look of terror appeared on his face, it
was a red circle with 3 arrows on top and one on the bottom. It was the
mark of slavery, a *dragon's* talon. That day he learned that his mother had been a slave to the Celestial Dragon's in the past.

He continued to live with them for the next 5 years when one day, a
noble kid named Charles from the upper town decided to join the Dojo.
Old man Toshiro would personally teach him and both Albert and Fenix had
 to practice with him in turns. Every time he landed a hit, the kid
would start whining. He was around the same age as Albert and Fenix.
While Albert would avoid hitting him during practice, Fenix would go all
 out till he finally gave up screaming and whining. He would get a
scolding of the lifetime from old man Toshiro every time he did that,
but that never stopped him from teaching that brat a lesson. Charles
held a grudge against Fenix after taking all the beating and Fenix could
 feel it.

The next day, after practice when everyone was leaving Charles
brought a small gold-plated knife with him, to end this once and for
all. Albert screamed, trying to warn Fenix of Charles' attack. Fenix,
swiftly turned around and with his reflex and muscle memory from years
of training kicking in, twisted his knife arm as he charged right into
it. Shocked, Albert and Fenix tried to help him but it was too late.
Fenix decided to run away and take the blame all on himself so he
wouldn't cause any trouble to Albert and his family who were kind enough
 to raise him. Albert, worried, argued that they could say it was in
self-defense and not to mention an accident but Fenix knew the Nobles
would not leave him alone. Without further waiting, he ran up and packed
 some clothes and took his wooden sword he would practice with, and
prepared to leave. He bid his farewell with Albert and they both made a
promise that day before Fenix took his leave. Fenix ran to the harbor
and sneaked up on a merchant ship to get away from the Island. He
promised Albert they would one day meet, as great men.

## Combat Style
