## Stats

Pearl is an NPC played by Rustage in Rustage's One Piece D&D streams. She is a member of the Devil's Luck Pirates and a royal princess of the Tarako Kingdom. She met the crew for the first time in Episode 1, but didn't officially join them until Episode 3. Pearl takes up the unusual role of Martial Artist Dragon Girl (MAD.G) on the crew. She is also the user of the Ryu Ryu no Mi: Model Western Dragon.

## **Appearance**

### Human Form

Pearl has pink, frizzy hair and bright pink eyes. She initially wears large black gloves on her hands in order to hide her claws. After gaining better control over her powers during the events of Episode 8 she leaves the gloves behind and stops wearing them. She also wears simple leather armor and a white shirt together with a single silver pauldron on her shoulder. Around her waist she wears a brown belt that holds up her black pants. Hanging from the belt is a quiver of arrows. She also has a cloak that she wears over her entire body. Though initially having claws and horns at all times, she eventually gains better control over powers, including the ability to control whether they appear or not.

### Hybrid Dragon Form

In her hybrid form, Pearl possesses various dragon limbs, that are covered in a variety of brown and pink scales. The first of these are front-facing horns, the second is her hands which are now claws, her fingers becoming bony claws. She also has scaly brown and pink wings.

### Full Dragon Form

In her full dragon form, Pearl appears like a massive western styled dragon on all fours, with brown and pink scales covering her entire body. She has large wings, claws, and horns. However, because of her immense childhood trauma, she has great difficulty accessing this form.

### Adult Dragon Form

During the final fight in the finale, with the help of Duros and remembering her brother and Cyril, Pearl finally got full control of her full dragon form, and with her new found confidence, her full dragon form has increased in both size and strength. This form also act similar to a druid wild shape where If she is knocked out of it, she comes back to her human form still conscious and base health.

## **Personality**

Initially, Pearl appeared to be a very shy person who tends to speak in an acerbic, sarcastic manner to those she doesn't know well or when people are especially nice or friendly. In battle, she can often be relatively brutal, even to the point of taking sadistic pleasure in killing her enemies. However, in reality she is a genuinely kind and caring person at heart, and likely adopted these traits due to her troubled past. Throughout the story she struggles with self-doubt, often pushing herself extremely hard in order to "prove herself" to the crew. Pearl can also have an extremely vicious and monstrous temper, although she does not get angered to this degree easily.

As the story progresses, Pearl eventually learns to open up and trust others, gaining more confidence in herself and becoming more comfortable and relaxed around her comrades. She becomes much more friendly and considerate towards the important people in her life. Little by little her true personality starts to emerge: she is actually adventurous, resourceful and energetic. However, she is also one of the more level-headed and intelligent members of the crew, often being the one to remind the others about their priorities when things get heated.

Pearl can hold her alcohol very well. Out of all the other members of the crew, the only person she'd lose to in a drinking contest is Ragnar.

Although she is working on it, she has a constant craving for human flesh.

## **Abilities / Powers / Equipment**

### Overview

In terms of combat capabilities Pearl seems to be of below average physical strength and instead relies heavily on her dexterity and Devil Fruit in battle. She possesses a quiver of arrows, but has yet to use them. As a former princess of the Tarako Kingdom Pearl received extensive training and education. As a result, she is knowledgeable about the world, keen and perceptive as well as capable of calm and rational thought in the face of adversity, often helping William to come up with plans or, alternatively, reminding him of the existing one. Pearl possesses a strong enough will to be able to withstand a burst of Conqueror's haki from Emperor Dominius.

### Devil Fruit

#### Ryu Ryu no Mi: Model Western Dragon

With the powers of her Devil Fruit, Pearl is able to access a human-dragon hybrid form and a full dragon form.

In her hybrid dragon form, which seems to be the form she has the most control over, she has claws, can breathe fire and sprout wings to fly up to 90 feet. She also has a special move in her hybrid form called "**Dragon Spinner**" (originally called "**MAD.G Corkscrew**") where she puts her claws together and spins into the enemy, she used this move on Big Bozo.

Pearl has shown an unwillingness or inability to transform into her full dragon form, and has only accessed it twice so far, first in Episode 3 and later in Episode 30. In her full dragon form she increases greatly in size, becoming a large western style dragon with pink scales and long claws. In spite of Pearl's incredible strength, her greatest weakness is her wavering mental state. Whenever she enters her full dragon form, she will act wild and out of control, endangering everyone around her, including her allies, and becoming unable to think or act rationally until she falls unconscious and reverts back to her human form. As of recently Pearl has overcome this weakness and can acess a even stronger full dragon form at will and with full control.

##### Fire Breath

Due to her extensive training and the stress of the fight with the Eighth Flame, Pearl has accessed a stronger fire breath.

##### Fireball

Pearl can breath fire and cause a fireball to explode right next to her target.

##### Fire Bolt

After more training, Pearl can shoot small bursts of flame in bolts.

##### Fire Resistance

Awakened this ability after enduring a flame blast from Blake. Now takes only half damage from fire based attacks.

#### Special Attacks

Pearl has used some special techniques during fights since mastering her hybrid dragon form:

##### **Dragon Spinner**

First used by Pearl against Big Bozo during the Devil's Luck Pirates' adventure on Clown Island. Consists of Pearl bringing her clawed hands together and spinning rapidly to pierce his opponent. In its first appearance this attack was initially called the "**MAD. G Corkscrew**".

##### **Flaming Claws**

First used by Pearl against Luna during their fight in the desert around the Capitol of Duros. Pearl preforms this by breathing fire onto her claws to add extra 2d10 fire damage to her attacks.

##### **Flaming Dragon Spinner**

First used by Pearl against Emperor Dominius during their fight in the Imperial Palace. A combination of Flaming Claws and Dragon Spinner. Pearl preforms this by breathing fire onto her claws to add extra fire damage to her attacks as well as spinning rapidly to pierce her opponent.

### Haki

Pearl is aware of the existence of the power known as Haki. She has also trained in the use of Armament Haki to a degree, but never learned how to utilize it in combat.

### Uchu

A sword originally owned by Void Agent Zoro, after his defeat by the hands of the Devil's Luck Pirates and Trevor, since everyone else had their own weapons it was them given to Pearl, who is now making good use of it, her attacks got a substantial damage increase especially with Pearl also putting fire in the blade increasing its damage even more (2d10 fire damage), she can attack with it twice per turn. Uchu is a very high quality sword being a "Black Blade".

## **Relationships**

### Devil's Luck Pirates

#### William

Pearl and William started out on relatively bad terms, distrusting and regularly insulting each other throughout the earlier parts of the story. However, following the search for the Devil Fruit and Pearl joining the crew their relationship has improved significantly. While wary and suspicious of Pearl at first, William is now grateful to have Pearl on the crew for her capabilities and hard work. William has been shown to care for both Pearl's physical and mental well-being and has made an effort to take her opinions into consideration before making any major decisions, just as he does with the rest of the crew. Pearl holds William in high regard as her captain as a result, often relying on his orders during combat and regularly calling him by his title, even during casual conversation. They have been shown to work very well together both in- and outside of combat, and they regularly joke among themselves. Both have also demonstrated their willingness to put themselves in harm's way in order to protect the other one on several occasions.

#### Verona

Verona didn't seem to particularly trust Pearl at first, but he quickly grew to after she saved him from falling, potentially to his death, in Episode 3. The two seem to have since formed a bond of mutual respect and trust. During the fight with The Timber Lord, Verona accidentally shot Pearl, knocking her unconscious. However, it seems that this hasn't strained their relationship.

#### Duros

Pearl sees Duros as a kind and caring person and someone she can truly trust and look up to. Duros was the first of the crew to truly trust her, and when he learned she was the princess of the Tarako Kingdom and the younger sister of his liege Jasper, Duros promised to assist her in saving him. They both promised to protect the other in the Grand Line when Jasper made Duros promise to keep Pearl safe. When Pearl began to express feelings of uselessness to the crew, Duros started encouraging her and acting as a sympathetic figure. Overall, the two share a very strong bond, one akin to a father-daughter or a brother-sister relationship.

#### Ragnar

While Ragnar was humourously unable to see Pearl at first due to her small stature, he soon became one of the first of the crew to truly trust her. She and Ragnar often team up to perform special attacks in fights, most notably when they worked together to finish off Captain Marrow. She seems to greatly respect him for his power and loyalty, and Ragnar tends to be encouraging and supportive of Pearl in her own endeavours.

#### Gravy

Just like all the other members of the Crew, Pearl greatly enjoys Gravy's cooking and his company, although they do disagree when violence should be used, as Pearl has grown more willing to kill over the course of the journey.

#### Louis Le'Cloque

Pearl and Louis seem to have a sense of polite cordiality with each other, even if they are not uniquely close. During the battle with The Timber Lord, Louis used his Devil Fruit to heal Pearl, potentially saving her life. In Episode 22 and after he got dumped by Cleo, Louis was inspired by Pearl to keep fighting and making the crew proud in order to make up for healing Cleo when she was almost dead. Louis seems to have become infatuated with Pearl. How Pearl feels about him in a romantic way is currently unknown but she most likely views him as a friend.

#### Cyril

Pearl at first has pity for Cyril after her crew accidentally caused him the loss of the right arm, but after the G4 arc and seeing him man up and fight for the justice in the world by killing Arzen she has grown to respect him, forgiving him for blasting her out of the sky and being happy to work with him.

Cyril has developed an obvious crush on Pearl, blushing and stuttering whenever she's around him and during the main Storyline it can be suspected that she feels similar feelings towards him, as we saw them go back to the Yogi Pooh 2, which had no one watching it, holding hands. Pearl believes that he will become a strong warrior in the future and tries to encourage him as much she can. Cyril sees her as both down to earth and able to excel at everything she puts her mind to, possibly overlooking her cannibalism and urge to kill. Although he also seems to view her as treating him like a child.

After sailing together for such big amount of time its clear a romantic relationship has formed in between them, this is especially clear when during the time loop, Pearl and Cyril went on a date with each other twice and after they return to their time, they are seeing holding hands.

After the epilogue they live together with a child in Tarako Kingdom, concreting their relationship and love together.

#### Lyssa

Pearl and Lyssa seemed to not interact much. During the battle against Robot Hastings, Heali reveled to Pearl that Lyssa wants to be friends with her but Pearl is just too scary. It's unknown what Pearl has done with his information.

#### Heali

Pearl isn't attached to Heali as much as the rest of the crew. Pearl even brought up if Heali died she wouldn't go full dragon cause Heali is just a robot to her.

#### Jimmy

During their first meeting Pearl was hostile with Jimmy. However once William explained that Jimmy was now a member of the crew, she gave Jimmy a more welcoming attitude.

#### Little Ricky

Upon first meeting Pearl was suspicious of Little Ricky. When William explained Little Ricky was now a member of the crew, Pearl became more accepting of his presence. Though she doesn't think the crew needs a accountant.

### Family

#### King Malachite

King Malachite is Pearl's father. He was an absolutely abhorrent father, feeding her a Devil Fruit at a young age and using it as a psychological tool to transform Pearl into a weapon for the Tarako Kingdom. Through this and other awful actions, such as making Pearl believe she was a monster (to the extent of forcing her to consume human flesh), Pearl came to absolutely despise him. She finally got her vengeance in Episode 8, where she killed Malachite in the throne room after defeating Eustass Valve and Captain Marrow.

#### Jasper

Jasper is Pearl's older brother and the two have a very close bond, as seen as Jasper calls her "Pearly". In spite of their father's mistreatment and Pearl's tragic upbringing. Pearl was a significant part of the reason why Jasper decided to launch a coup d'état in the Tarako Kingdom, and through his and Duros' efforts, managed to give her a chance to escape. Jasper would go on to say that while she was away there wasn't a day where he didn't cry, wondering if she was okay.

#### Unknown Mother

Not much is known about Pearl's mother aside from the fact that she died while giving birth to Pearl.

### Allies

#### Atom

Pearl was quite wary of Atom, especially after Episode 3 where he attacked her. He would refer to her as a monster and a freak in Episode 4, much to the anger of her crewmates. However, she did not advocate for his death, instead believing he could be useful to the crew. When he was killed in a battle against Captain Marrow, Pearl was visibly upset over his demise. She would later assist Ragnar in avenging his death by enabling him to deal the final blow to Captain Marrow.

#### Hemlock

Pearl doesn't seem to have a particular opinion of Hemlock, mostly just untrusting of her (with good reason). However, she did not object to her helping them or leaving her in peace on Le Arbor after the fighting with The Timber Lord.

### Enemies

#### Cleo

Pearl absolutely despises Cleo for her eccentric and overly enthusiastic personality, which almost functions as a polar opposite to Pearl's shy, acerbic demeanor. During the Eight Flames Hideout Raid she seemed enthusiastic over the prospect of killing her.

## **History**

Pearl was born as the princess of the Tarako Kingdom. She was force fed a Devil Fruit as a baby by her father, who lied to her about her powers, telling her that she was cursed. He would tell her that she must listen to everything he says or she would end up hurting innocent people-- all while her father raised her with stories of things like Sea Kings to scare her and trained her to be a living weapon. This mistreatment was so severe that he even forced Pearl to commit cannibalism, to drive deeper the idea that she was a monster and could never be cared for by people.

However, her father did bring a clown in once to comfort her- showing he still cared for her, at least in some measure. At some point, with the help of Duros, Jasper was able to help Pearl escape Tarako Kingdom and their father.

Pearl was introduced in Episode 1, where she was hiding from the Marines on a small unnamed island. She helped the remains of the Devil's Luck Pirates get off of the small island. It was later revealed to the crew that Pearl is a princess from the Tarako Kingdom.

She joined the crew officially in Episode 3 as the crew's Martial Artist Dragon Girl (MAD.G for short). After helping the crew gather information about Ragnar's missing family, they headed to the Tarako Kingdom once more to liberate Jasper, overthrow the tyrannical King Malachite, and find Eustass Valve. At the end of the fighting, Pearl killed her father, finally getting revenge for all that he put her through.

Continuing on with the Devil's Luck Pirates, Pearl and the rest of the crew journeyed through Reverse Mountain to the Grand Line, where they encountered Louis Le'cloque and learned of their bounties. She would assist the crew in the resulting battles against Louis' brother, The Timber Lord, on L'Arbor.

After L'Arbor, Pearl joined the Crew in their fight against Big Bozo and to G4, where she threw away a chance at freedom to reaffirm her loyalty to the Crew.

#### Epilogue

After a indeterminate amount of time after the Devil's Luck Pirates disbanded, Pearl and Cyril are seem in a prestigious house in Tarako Kingdom, Pearl is cooking something with her fire, and Cyril is washing the dishes with his water, then the sound of a baby cry is heard in a separate room, Cyril goes to check him out, and its revealed that they had a child together.
