Trials of the World/Inspiration & Explanations

I created Trials of the World so I could have my own series here on Ship of Fools. However, I have had inspiration for a lot of the stuff. Some of the stuff, most notably Yumoz and Mugen, are from the stories that I've written over the years. A lot of my inspiration for characters and etc are from my experiences, and from those that are close to me, or have made an impact in my life in such a way.

Characters
~Heiko Pirates~
 * Kyoto- Originally, Kyoto was going to be the Yumoz from my stories that were transferred over. However, after creating Trials of the World, I've decided to not model him after Yumoz, and change him into more like Nagato's Asura Path, with my own personal touches of course~.
 * Rando- Rando is sort of modeled after Asura from Soul Eater. His appearance is what gives it away, but, considering Rando's horrid past, he's learned to have little to no emotion, having hatred for many people, and because of Torch Town, have a large amount of malice within his system. Because of Asura's many eyes within his clothing, I decided to give Rando the Gankyu Gankyu no Mi.
 * Ocha- I saw a picture when I was looking for pictures for people, and I saw her. I decided to give her a Poison Logia and make her the crew's Doctor. This is ironic though, due to her Logia, and the fact her epithet "Poison Tea" is something she possesses. Her epithet was given to me by Rukiryo when he was joking around, and I revolved her character around that.
 * Oyogu- I've always liked the Fishmen, and I wanted to have a Fishman for the crew. I decided to use Ripjaws from Ben 10, since an Angler Fishman is what I wanted. It was perfect, until the time-skip picture, haha. However, I decided to make Oyogu be a shy person, contrary to Ripjaws, and the crew's Chef.
 * Shiro- I saw a picture, and I liked it. I decided to make Shiro an antagonist for the Heiko Pirates for a short while and then have him eventually join. Being a Rear Admiral with the power of a Vice Admiral, he is definitely a great addition to the crew. Because of wanting to find out about the other island that Shandian Exiles have, I decided to make him the crew's Archaeologist. He even has a little of Nico Robin within him, due to her being one of my more favorite characters.
 * Kanpeki- She is modeled after Franziska von Karma from the Phoenix Wright series. She retains many aspects from the actual Fransizka, but not everything. Due to her always wanting perfection, I decided she'd be a great character to be a Shipwright.
 * Sureido- He is modeled after Xigbar from the Kingdom Hearts series. I very much liked him, and decided he'd be a great Sniper for the crew. With the help of Madman and others, I was capable of being able to make him have a similar style of fighting with the actual Xigbar. Because of his affiliation with CP10, and because I liked CP9 a lot, I decided that why not have a Cipher Pol agent join a Pirate Crew because of his own reasons?
 * Namida N.- Modeled after a picture I saw on the internet, in search for a Musician for the Heiko Pirates. I decided that she'd be raised on Shokurin with her best friend Iro von Inzei.
 * Iro von Inzei- I already wanted a pet for the Heiko Pirates, but I was unsure of what to make it to. I eventually decided to pick the Helmaroc King from the Legend of Zelda series, because of how much I liked the flying bird~. With the help of Wyvern, I was able to find a name for him and make his epithet. Because of Kanpeki's rigorous training, he was able to learn how to speak, despite not having a Devil Fruit. He is unique, because he has a flame sac, an idea given to me by someone on this Wikia that I cannot recall, sadly.

~Shukketsu Clan/Mugen~
 * Shukketsu Raudo/III- III is modeled after my stories, just like the majority of the Shukketsu Clan members on this Wikia. I planned on making him have the "genius" of Kisuke Urahara from Bleach, and decided for him to be the creator of the Animeshon. He also has a few attributes of my father, but not all. He is the father-figure of the clan, and its current head. In my stories, however, he is not the leader of Mugen, it is his son, Neno who is the leader.
 * Shukketsu Opua- Opua is modeled after my mother. She loves dragons, so I decided to get some inspiration from Magellan's Fruit, the Doku Doku no Mi, and imputed it within Opua's mechanics. However, since Opua is a villain, she doesn't have all the aspects of my mother. However, despite all this, she is mother-figure of the clan, and cares deeply for her "children".
 * Shukketsu Isis- Isis is modeled after the sister I've always wanted. She is a very kind person, and I decided that Iris from the Phoenix Wright series fits her perfectly. However, to fit in her part as an Interrogator, I needed for her to have her vile side. Because she herself is incapable of such things, she has a dual personality. In which the more vile side of herself comes out when she is in danger, battle, or interrogating others. This is why I gave her the Sonzai Sonzai no Mi.
 * Shukketsu Neno- Believe it or not, I do have my dark side, haha~. This is where Neno comes in. He, with Mugen, are the main Antagonists of my series. Constantly dealing with the Protagonist and his group. However, despite him being my dark side, he does have his kindness, meaning that he will do anything for his family.
 * Shukketsu Hepen- Hepen is modeled after my current best friend, Griffiti. In my stories, he has the ability to apply gravity and heal. He is able to do this with the Shukketsu Manipulation Technique. Reason I picked gravity is because Griffiti is quite fond of it. Because of who he is modeled after, he an Neno and very close. However, in my stories, Neno and Hepen fight because of what Hepen did, basically betraying Mugen.
 * Shukketsu Azio- Azio is modeled after my former best friend, but still close friend, Nomad. He has yet to appear within my stories, however. I did give him, however, the position of Sniper because of Nomad's wanting to join the military. Despite Azio being a goof-ball at times, he does have his serious side. I made it so him, Hepen and Neno were close friends, and did a lot together.
