Hunter D. Kidd

Portrayed by N1FF

## Overview

*Overall Hunter is a very boisterous individual, ensuring that his ship is full of life at all times. He is a firm believer in being free in both yourself, and the world hence he holds no hatreds based on race or status. As an individual, he doesn’t care about the world's needs and economical standards, opting to typically steal and plunder what he can to throw parties and feasts for his crew.*

*He is a light hearted and outgoing individual, simply wanting to set sail with the goal of being free, with the ability to go wherever he wanted doing as he pleased as he did. He is typically a lazy and unmotivated person opting to simply sleep during the day when the sea is calm. But is known to lash out, and go berserk when his morals or views are challenged or threatened.*

## Mental Strengths

*Given the laid back nature of Hunter, it is rare that anything gets under his skin. Giving him resilience to losing his temper due to insults and so forth. Mentally, Hunter is a very sound individual, often opting not to do anything out of order or anything that would compromise his or his crew's safety unless it was dire and necessary to the situation.*

*Hunter's intelligence is above average, being smarter than most people in the world. Although he isn’t scientifically smart, given his past and upbringing he is well versed in the world of piracy and cons, allowing him to essentially be “Street smart” in the world. Learning when and where to trust individuals.*

## Mental Weaknesses

*True to his nature, his ability to be laidback is a double edged sword. He typically finds things that aren’t of urgent nature useless, and opts not to deal with them. More often than not, if the task isn’t throwing a party and having fun with his crew, he often lacks the motivation to do so, procrastinating as much as he possibly can to not do the task.*

*Given the fact he isn’t scientifically smart, he quite often is amazed by complex things often losing track of both time and thought by just the sheer awe he has for them.*

## History

*Being from the same island in which Edward Newgate was born, Sphinx was a rough and difficult place to grow up even post whitebeard era. The harsh and rough conditions took years to fade to the now calm and peaceful village that you will find at the current time, and it was in that rough period that Hunter was born into the world.*

*Not knowing his mother or father, as they were both pirates he was hastily left on the island with the hopes of the locals taking care of him as he grew. Being found by an old subordinate of Newgate, his fate was sealed there and then to a life of piracy. As Hunter grew, his crimes started low with simple petty thefts of local shops, with him becoming familiar with parkour in order to escape others with his new found treasure, this eventually escalated to the point where he was taking large sums of the money that Newgate was sending back to the island anonymously at the age of 8.*

*Not only did his life of crime rise, so did his reputation and he was soon known all over the island as the “Mischievous Kidd” due to his acts. But it wouldn’t be till he was 13 that his skills, and reputation truly flourished. Often having to tend to himself, Hunter was an extremely possessive kid, tending to not share with others, even struggling to form long lasting relationships with his mentor figure being the only individual that seemingly wanted him around. The only thing that he wanted more than anything was attention, and effectively love. He was an extremely lonely child, and this actually influenced him to do more crime, as any attention was effectively positive.*

*Hunter's whole world turned around at the age of 13 when a Marine Missionary and their crew turned up to Sphinx with the main objective of recruiting the island back into the world government due to their past of not being able to pay the heavenly tribute. And that’s when Hunter's true life of priacy would start. Given all that had gone on, on the island it was evident that the islanders didn’t want to join, and that’s when Hunter's mentor stepped up to stand for an independent island which resulted in him being swiftly and aptly shot in the head killing him there for his “Resistance” in a fit of rage, Hunter let out his show of emotion screaming his Conqueror's haki emerged, instantly causing all the marines and locals in the vicinity to lose consciousness, not knowing what exactly had happened Hunter quickly took advantage of the situation, climbing on board the marine boat chucking the unconscious marines off setting sail to be free of his past.*

*Many days, and nights passed alone on the ship he had commandeered, granted he was still a child so he had no clue of what to do with a boat he aimlessly sailed around, scourging what he could from the rations aboard the ship until the food stores ran out. Laying on the helm looking at the sky, he quickly realized how cold it was before suddenly crashing into the side of a cold, and seemingly arctic island. Not knowing where he was, he opted to go out and steal some food to survive and possibly get some new clothes to blend in with the locals. Hunter took a step off the ship, leaving it shipwrecked as he ventured into the unknown island. Due to both exhaustion and the lack of food, it didn’t take long until Hunter eventually passed out. Laying in the cold, it was clear that if he didn’t wake up he would die, and that’s when he met Vera.*

*Vera was a gift sent from god, and his savior as without her he would have surely died. Although Hunter couldn’t relocate much, his memory was patchy from him being dragged by Vera across the cold and harsh landscape and into her home. Given the fact that Hunter and Vera were both young at the time, the treatment was basic with Vera cleaning up the wounds and essentially nurturing Hunter back to full health in her home, noticing that Vera had no-one to take care of her just as he did, he wanted to bond with her and be her friend as they both had similar situations that way and he felt that she could understand him. Seven years passed, and Vera and Hunter decided to live and stay on the island until they were both ready to leave, given the fact they were now in a romantic relationship they had been saving up for a small caraval to start their own crew and set sail into the free world. Once 20, they eventually bought their dream ship, setting sail into the world together as the Orphan Pirates.*
