Renard D. Katrina



Introduction
Renard D. Katrina is the daughter of Renard D. Maria and a longtime friend of Hig D. Connor. She is the first person, besides Connor, to join the Black Legacy Pirates, serving as Connor's first mate.

Appearance
Katrina is a medium height, slender young woman with flowing white hair like her mothers. She often chooses to dress in Yukata, despite her true tomboyish personality. She will often conceal the bottom half of her face with black fabric, despite the revelation that she really has no reason to do so.

Personality
Katrina's day to day personality comes in one of two flavours: The "Straight Man" to Connor's "Carefree Goofball" or being even more random and outgoing that Connor. Despite this wild variation, she is still as caring for her friends and family as she is toward her fellow crew. She NEVER underestimates her opponents and acts cautiously until she feels safe that they have few to no tricks left. And even then, she makes sure she has at least three more in reserve...

Swordsmanship
Katrina has demonstrated swordsmanship on par with Connor's Hand to Hand combative ability, which is par for the course considering they trained together.

Marksmanship
Katrina is a superb marksman, going so far as to say that if she ever lost her position as First Mate, she'd usurp Marksman until she got it back.

Hand to Hand Combat
Katrian can hold her own without any weapons, but she does not overly excell in Unarmed combat.

Physical Strength
For such a slender woman, Katrina has displayed instances of frigthening strength, typically if her Nakama are in danger or if Connor has done something to set her off.

Agility

One of Katrina's greatest strengths is her agility. She has been shown to easily be the most flexible member of the crew (Via a Limbo contest) and demonstrates superb dodging ability.

Endurance

Despite her skill and agility, Katrina can take very little damage from strong opponents such as New World Pirates or Marine Vice-Admirals. Though when push comes to shove, she soldiers through despite any later consequences.

Weapons

Katrina cares a pair of short swords, several throwing knives and at least four pistols concealed within her Yukata.

Haki
Kenbunshoku Haki: Color of Observation

Busōshoku Haki: Color of Armaments

Katrina is capable of imbuing her weapons with Haki in order to strike Logia users.

Hig D. Connor
Katrina is Connor's longtime friend, the two having grown up together for roughly ten years, and set sail with him as his first crewmember. Though she does value Connor dearly, she does not seem to harbour any romantic interest in him. She often plays the "Straight Man" to him in order to keep the crew in order and avert disaster regarding matters Connor is simply too carefree to care about, such as finances.

Renard D. Maria
Katrina's relationship with her mother is something of a mystery. She clearly loves and respects her mother, but also resents her for being so distant until Connor's arrival. Upon setting sail, however, the two seem to have reconciled somewhat.

History
Katrina was born in the South Blue and raised by her mother, Renard D. Maria. Despite receiving the nessecary amount of love from her mother, Katrina would often see Maria staring longily at the sea, as if the woman had lost her love somewhere on the sea or simply longed to be on the sea itself. That all changed when Commodore Hig M. Mitchell brought his second son to Maria so that she could care for him while the commodore went to sea.

At first Katrina was jealous that this new arrival received far more attention from Maria, often tormenting the boy as an older sibling would, until Connor declared his intent to become one of the greatest pirates ever, prompting Maria to reveal that she was an ex-pirate who had sailed through the New World, only to be capture upon arriving in the South Blue by Mitchell. She had been spared by the then-captain only because she was pregnant with Katrina at the time.

Seeing that Connor had restored something of her Mother's lost spirit, Katrina accepted Connor both as a friend and younger sibling. When Maria gave Connor his devil fruit and offered Katrina another, Katrina refused saying that one of the two would have to swim.

At the age of 17, Katrina set sail with Connor aboard a small galley in order to pursue a life of piracy and carry on the legacy left by Renard D. Maria.
