The Character
"I'm going to be the world's greatest swordsman! All I have left is my destiny! My name may be infamous...but it's gonna shake the world!!!
[/i][/color]Name: Zoro Roronoa
Age: 21
Sex: Male
Alliance: Neutral Good or Chaotic Neutral
Race: Human
Appearance:
Zoro is an average sized, muscular young man with lightly tanned skin(5'10 ft and 210 pounds). He always carries around his three swords, bundled up with a green haramaki over his right hip, allowing him to easily draw them with his left hand. Although his right hand is usually seen resting over them, he can also use this hand to pull his swords out before sitting down. He has three identical gold earrings on his left earlobe. Zoro normally keeps a black bandanna tied around his left bicep and ties it around his head when he is fighting seriously against an opponent.
All around his body are horrible scars from his tears of battle and putting his life on the line. One is a massive nasty reaching from left shoulder to his right hip. One on each of his legs around his ankles when he tried to cut them off. For some odd reason Zoro never changes his style of clothing. Always a white shirt worn open(the top three button undone),black pants and matching black boots making his pants and boots seem to blend together and a green haramaki around his abs and waist.
Abilities
"A wound that'd make an ordinary man unconscious... I won't lose to it. A wound that would kill an ordinary person... I won't lose to it! To face one who is extraordinary, Hawk Eyes... I can't allow myself to be ordinary!"
[/i][/color]Powers:
Immense Physical Strength: Zoro has monstrous physical strength. At a very young age he was able to lift boulders the size of you normal day sofa over his head to entir buildings, and is now He can use some sword techniques without his swords, and has also been shown to pack powerful punches from training his whole life. His punches able to send other flying into buildings by pumping his arms full with muscle. Last for 2-4 post and has a 2-4 cool down time.
Great speed, agility and over all reflexes: Also extraordinary. He himself can move at relative quick speeds and jump at rather impressive heights, even dodge bullets with ease
Great Durability: Zoro has an incredible tolerance to pain and astonishing amounts of stamina and endurance, evidenced by numerous situations he has thus far endured allowing him to fight on the brink of death for a short while if the blow doesn't out right kill him. Zoro can fight on the brink of near death for 1-2 post before passing out or worst, dying.
Weakness:
"There is someone that I must meet again. And until that day...not even Death itself can take my life away!"
[/i][/color]Mortal: Even Though Zoro has great physical powers he is still mortal meaning he can still die from bleeding to death, Illnesses, or even from his wound on his chest reopening. Also he can tire out leaving his body no longer under his control. (Seen when after he attack Kuma he could no longer move.)
Lack of Orientation: Outside of battles, Zoro has one obvious weakness: his complete lack of orientation. He often demonstrates that he can easily get lost everywhere and always walks in the wrong direction. He even walks the wrong way when being directly shown which way to go. Zoro also get confused by his own directions.
His soul: Though it is a great strength it also his greatest weakness. A double edge sword. His insane will power is what leads Zoro to most of his greatest wounds and what leaves him near death in almost everyone of his battles. Zoro doesn't know when to give up most of the time and this can leads him to pointlessly dying.
Straight minded: Zoro is very narrow minded making it easy to manipulate him. Seen when Nami tricks him into owing her moeny out of nowhere. Even when the debt started at a certain amount it can more than double in a moment.
Luck of the draw: Zoro is willing to put his luck against almost anything believing that fate and luck decides everything in life. From Two people meeting to him destroying someone's ship for mistaking it for a fishing boat and the crew awakening him form his nap. This leads the pirate hunter to rush into things head first without thinking believing it his fate if his wins or lose. (Though he does believe that you have to make your own luck.)
The glare: Since the swordsman tends to scare of people with his murderous intent he doesn't have many allies beside his crew and a few others.
Self Loyalty: Zoro is willing to put his own well being aside for his friends going as far as to risk his head for Luffy's dream. This and his unbending will power lead people to think he is bordering on insanity. He has seen risk himself for a little girl who he had just met.
What he can't cut: Though Zoro has now master the ability to cut though Steel there are still substances which he can't cut. Like Diamonds, most metals harder than steel.
Evil sword(s): Zoro's Sandai Kitetsu is cursed and will one day bring him a nightmarish death. The only thing holding this back is his pure luck and once that runs out, well you can guess the rest. Also it is a "problem child" fighting against the swordsman almost always hindering his attacks in some way. Also his Shusui has a "temper" meaning it doesn't always obey it's master making it harder for Zoro to fight.
Weapons:
"You'll never understand...your swords will never be as heavy as mine!"
[/i][/color]Wado Ichimonji- The sword has a pure-white hilt with a circular hand-guard. It is described as "magnificent". This sword is incredibly durable. Able to take years of battle in the hands of Zoro, whoes strength is monsterous.
Sandai Kitetsu- a "Sharp Sword". Like all of its predecessor Kitetsu swords, this one is said to be curse. has a sharp edge, making it easier to use for cutting. However, Zoro has commented that the sword appears to have a mind of its own, making it a "problem child". It can also be noted that Zoro can "feel" this sword's presence without even seeing it.
Shusui- one of the 21 O Wazamono grade swords. The Shusui's blade is black with a distinct red edge and its hand-guard has flower-like edges, hence it is a "Black Sword"
Shusui is designed to tremendously increase the damage potential and destructive power of the user. While it is capable of dealing heavy blows and is extremely hard, Shusui has a few major problems of its own. Just as Sandai Kitetsu turned out to be a "problem child", Zoro describes Shusui as having a "temper" that makes it harder to wield.

Personality:[/b]
Zoro is man of many layers. He is usually stern, serious and distanced, only acts different when something stupid happens normally losing his temper during these rare moments. Though this is only the first layer to the pirate hunter. Behind that stern and serious guy act is a cold blooded killer with a massive murderous intent and someone who takes overly drastic measure to complete his goals. He refuses to back down form a fight and will gladly give up his body for the sake of his dream, but even this had limits. Everyone has a wall, that point where they can go no further or that person that they can't bring harm to. Moss head is no stranger to these places in time. When he is beaten Zoro will lay down his swords and give up.
The last layer is far more noble. A bleeding heart and a somewhat honorable man. The swordsman will give up his life, body and dream for a friend and their own dream. Believing that if he can not protect them and their dreams how could he ever achieve his own. With that said he will never attack someone when their back is turn unless someone is about to take his friends' life or turn away from a foe. "A scar on the back if the greatest shame to swordsman."
Sercets:[/b]
He's thousand of belli in debt to Nami
He took Luffy's pain for him.
He actually thinks of Sanji as a brother.
