Komodia Aphrodite

Komodia "Sugar Rush" Aphrodite is the **Captain** of the Hershey Pirates, a pirate group active in the New World, and one of the four current Yonko pirate crews. Her nickname, and preferred name, is 'Miku' for those she is close with.

Aphrodite named the crew after the treasured mascot and pet of the group, Hershey the Axolotl, who travels alongside the crew on all their expenditures, often found hiding inside Aphrodite's bag with it's head peeping out at the events that transpire before it, and oh how they do.

Aphrodite has displayed four of the five types of haki with proficiency, the excluded member being Hirushoku Haki, which she currently has not shown off in any capacity whatsoever. Her Busoshoku is immensely powerful, and when paired with her Umbrella, she can become a force of pure destruction that doesn't match her innocent and cutesy appearance in the slightest, and her Haoshoku has developed to the point where she can use Haoshoku Infusion on herself and her weapons, something that has been unlocked due to her proficiency in Busoshoku Haki, in which it should be noted that she has been able to manage both emission and internal destruction. Her Kenbunshoku Haki is observably lagging behind these two fields, and while she has very good intuition accompanying her already strong foundation of natural perception, she is nowhere near the level of Future Sight or it's counterparts. She does, however, have an extremely good sense of smell and taste, though generally only the former proves itself useful in functionality. Lastly, Aphrodite's Jihishoku is currently under maintenance and training. She is naturally charismatic, however because of her sporadic personality, her ability to sustain a Jihishoku aura becomes sporadic in kind, though while it does last it is a powerful presence, rivalling some of the more renowned Jihishoku users in efficiency at it's strongest.

Aphrodite's devil fruit ability allows her to make, manipulate, and turn things into confections, and her style of strength is often unpredictable because of the massive well of ideas and abilities that can come out of this overarching theme, able to be used as both utility and focus. Her deadliest ability by far is generally accepted to be her ability to turn *people* into confections, giving them properties of types of sweets.

## Appearance

To the average person, Aphrodite's image alone can cause a dizzying effect, with a variety of colors resonating from her staple outfit, which vaguely resembles some sort of fusion between the traditional clothes of her homeland, and modern streetwear. She considers herself to be fashionably "woke," and is confident in everything she does, having no subconscious pressure about caring how she looks to strangers. Her hair appears to be dyed three colors, being black, red, and blue, however this is in fact her natural hair color, which she complements with clothing of similar hue. She carries a designer bag from one of her own companies, which prides itself in being one of the few "chiq" apparel brands in the world, known as **Meiji**, and Aphrodite's bag itself is a modified prototype model for those of the same visible make seen in stores, however her own bag being much bigger on the inside than it would look, with her able to pull out an endless stream of various trinkets, items, and collectibles she has stored inside it over her travels. In here she also stores her trademark umbrella, the Saijō Ō Wazamono blade **Ama-no-Shukumeigasa**, an umbrella renowned for it's abiltiy to, while open, smash through buildings, and while closed, be maneuvered like a sword with the dexterity and force of even the foremost weapons of the world.

## Personality

Aphrodite's personality can often be viewed as scattered and eccentric, and while she holds a loose sense of drive and desire, much of what she does is influenced directly by the situations she finds herself in, easily turning from a happy-go-lucky and cheerful girl to a cruel and demonic beast of a human on different days, though it seems that her personality will shift to what it was during her last encounter with something or someone. Meaning, if she was friendly with someone before, she's likely to be friendly with them again, and if she fought with someone before, she's likely to become excessively belligerent if she interacts with that individual again in the future. This aside, her base personality is bubble and cheerful, with Aphrodite not taking herself all that seriously, just trying to have as much fun as she can with her friends and crew while she still can.

As pirates go, she isn't much of a malicious person, and in fact usually stands against oppression and unjust violence (justice from her perspective) if presented a an opportunity, though she has been known to dine and dash, almost to the point of it being habitual. Regarding the recent power struggle between the World Government, Aont Okorr, and the Revolutionary Army, Aphrodite couldn't care less, and she honestly views the whole ordeal as a waste of time, effort, and most importantly, life. This seemingly deadlocked quarrel quite frankly irritates her, and she tends to take an aggressive stance when confronting any within these three groups. Any that she sees as people perpetuating the instability and chaos in the world, that is, even though while she may not realize it, she has become something of a source of this herself.

## Equipment

Aside from her Umbrella, Aphrodite does not carry any other visible weapons, though some stray items tend to rest inside her seemingly bottomless bag. She has been seen on one occasion using one of her shoes as a weapon after her umbrella was stolen by a wild monkey while she was being chased by a squad of marines, which she made use of by hardening with her fruit ability, and using it to ruthlessly beat her opponents senseless.
